This widget aims to position objects in a grid layout while actually creating and rendering only the visible ones, using the same idea as the genlist: the user defines a class for each item, specifying functions that will be called at object creation, deletion, etc. When those items are selected by the user, a callback function is issued. Users may interact with a gengrid via the mouse (by clicking on items to select them and clicking on the grid's viewport and swiping to pan the whole view) or via the keyboard, navigating through item with the arrow keys.

This widget inherits from the Layout one, so that all the functions acting on it also work for gengrid objects.

This widget implements the elm-scrollable-interface interface, so that all (non-deprecated) functions for the base Scroller widget also work for gengrids.

Some calls on the gengrid's API are marked as deprecated, as they just wrap the scrollable widgets counterpart functions. Use the ones we point you to, for each case of deprecation here, instead -- eventually the deprecated ones will be discarded (next major release).

Gengrid layouts

Gengrid may layout its items in one of two possible layouts:

horizontal or
vertical.

When in "horizontal mode", items will be placed in columns, from top to bottom and, when the space for a column is filled, another one is started on the right, thus expanding the grid horizontally, making for horizontal scrolling. When in "vertical mode" , though, items will be placed in rows, from left to right and, when the space for a row is filled, another one is started below, thus expanding the grid vertically (and making for vertical scrolling).

Gengrid items

An item in a gengrid can have 0 or more texts (they can be regular text or textblock Evas objects - that's up to the style to determine), 0 or more contents (which are simply objects swallowed into the gengrid item's theming Edje object) and 0 or more boolean states, which have the behavior left to the user to define. The Edje part names for each of these properties will be looked up, in the theme file for the gengrid, under the Edje (string) data items named "texts", "contents" and "states", respectively. For each of those properties, if more than one part is provided, they must have names listed separated by spaces in the data fields. For the default gengrid item theme, we have one text part ("elm.text"), two content parts ("elm.swallow.icon" and "elm.swallow.end") and no state parts.

A gengrid item may be at one of several styles. Elementary provides one by default - "default", but this can be extended by system or application custom themes/overlays/extensions (see themes for more details).

Gengrid item classes

In order to have the ability to add and delete items on the fly, gengrid implements a class (callback) system where the application provides a structure with information about that type of item (gengrid may contain multiple different items with different classes, states and styles). Gengrid will call the functions in this struct (methods) when an item is "realized" (i.e., created dynamically, while the user is scrolling the grid). All objects will simply be deleted when no longer needed with evas_object_del(). The #Elm_Gengrid_Item_Class structure contains the following members:

item_style - This is a constant string and simply defines the name of the item style. It must be specified and the default should be "default".
func.text_get - This function is called when an item object is actually created. The data parameter will point to the same data passed to elm_gengrid_item_append() and related item creation functions. The obj parameter is the gengrid object itself, while the part one is the name string of one of the existing text parts in the Edje group implementing the item's theme. This function must return a strdup'()ed string, as the caller will free() it when done. See #Elm_Gengrid_Item_Text_Get_Cb.
func.content_get - This function is called when an item object is actually created. The data parameter will point to the same data passed to elm_gengrid_item_append() and related item creation functions. The obj parameter is the gengrid object itself, while the part one is the name string of one of the existing (content) swallow parts in the Edje group implementing the item's theme. It must return NULL, when no content is desired, or a valid object handle, otherwise. The object will be deleted by the gengrid on its deletion or when the item is "unrealized". See #Elm_Gengrid_Item_Content_Get_Cb.
func.state_get - This function is called when an item object is actually created. The data parameter will point to the same data passed to elm_gengrid_item_append() and related item creation functions. The obj parameter is the gengrid object itself, while the part one is the name string of one of the state parts in the Edje group implementing the item's theme. Return EINA_FALSE for false/off or EINA_TRUE for true/on. Gengrids will emit a signal to its theming Edje object with "elm,state,xxx,active" and "elm" as "emission" and "source" arguments, respectively, when the state is true (the default is false), where xxx is the name of the (state) part. See #Elm_Gengrid_Item_State_Get_Cb.
func.del - This is called when elm_object_item_del() is called on an item or elm_gengrid_clear() is called on the gengrid. This is intended for use when gengrid items are deleted, so any data attached to the item (e.g. its data parameter on creation) can be deleted. See #Elm_Gengrid_Item_Del_Cb.

Usage hints

If the user wants to have multiple items selected at the same time, elm_gengrid_multi_select_set() will permit it. If the gengrid is single-selection only (the default), then elm_gengrid_select_item_get() will return the selected item or NULL, if none is selected. If the gengrid is under multi-selection, then elm_gengrid_selected_items_get() will return a list (that is only valid as long as no items are modified (added, deleted, selected or unselected) of child items on a gengrid.

If an item changes (internal (boolean) state, text or content changes), then use elm_gengrid_item_update() to have gengrid update the item with the new state. A gengrid will re-"realize" the item, thus calling the functions in the #Elm_Gengrid_Item_Class set for that item.

To programmatically (un)select an item, use elm_gengrid_item_selected_set(). To get its selected state use elm_gengrid_item_selected_get(). To make an item disabled (unable to be selected and appear differently) use elm_object_item_disabled_set() to set this and elm_object_item_disabled_get() to get the disabled state.

Grid cells will only have their selection smart callbacks called when firstly getting selected. Any further clicks will do nothing, unless you enable the "always select mode", with elm_gengrid_select_mode_set() as ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_ALWAYS, thus making every click to issue selection callbacks. elm_gengrid_select_mode_set() as ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_NONE will turn off the ability to select items entirely in the widget and they will neither appear selected nor call the selection smart callbacks.

Remember that you can create new styles and add your own theme augmentation per application with elm_theme_extension_add(). If you absolutely must have a specific style that overrides any theme the user or system sets up you can use elm_theme_overlay_add() to add such a file.

Gengrid smart events

This widget emits the following signals, besides the ones sent from Layout:

"activated" - The user has double-clicked or pressed (enter|return|spacebar) on an item. The event_info parameter is the gengrid item that was activated.
"pressed" - The user pressed the an item. The event_info parameter is the item that was pressed.
"released" - The user released the an item. The event_info parameter is the item that was released.
"clicked,double" - The user has double-clicked an item. The event_info parameter is the gengrid item that was double-clicked.
"clicked,right" - The user has right-clicked an item. The event_info parameter is the item that was right-clicked. (since 1.13)
"longpressed" - This is called when the item is pressed for a certain amount of time. By default it's 1 second.
"selected" - The user has made an item selected. The event_info parameter is the gengrid item that was selected.
"unselected" - The user has made an item unselected. The event_info parameter is the gengrid item that was unselected.
"realized" - This is called when the item in the gengrid has its implementing Evas object instantiated, de facto. event_info is the gengrid item that was created.
"unrealized" - This is called when the implementing Evas object for this item is deleted. event_info is the gengrid item that was deleted.
"changed" - Called when an item is added, removed, resized or moved and when the gengrid is resized or gets "horizontal" property changes.
"scroll,anim,start" - This is called when scrolling animation has started.
"scroll,anim,stop" - This is called when scrolling animation has stopped.

"moved" - This is called when a gengrid item is moved by a user interaction in a reorder mode. The event_info parameter is the item that was moved.
"index,update" - This is called when a gengrid item index is changed. Note that this callback is called while each item is being realized.
"highlighted" - an item in the list is highlighted. This is called when the user presses an item or keyboard selection is done so the item is physically highlighted. The event_info parameter is the item that was highlighted.
"unhighlighted" - an item in the list is unhighlighted. This is called when the user releases an item or keyboard selection is moved so the item is physically unhighlighted. The event_info parameter is the item that was unhighlighted.
"language,changed" - This is called when the program's language is changed. Call the elm_gengrid_realized_items_update() if items text should be translated.

Evas_Object* elm_gengrid_add ( Evas_Object * parent )

Add a new gengrid widget to the given parent Elementary (container) object

Parameters:

parent The parent object

Returns:: a new gengrid widget handle or NULL, on errors

This function inserts a new gengrid widget on the canvas.

See also:: elm_gengrid_item_size_set(); elm_gengrid_group_item_size_set(); elm_gengrid_horizontal_set(); elm_gengrid_item_append(); elm_object_item_del(); elm_gengrid_clear()

void elm_gengrid_align_get	(	const Elm_Gengrid *	obj,
		double *	align_x,
		double *	align_y
	)

Get the items grid's alignment values within a given gengrid widget.

Note:: Use null pointers on the alignment values you're not interested in: they'll be ignored by the function.

Parameters:

[in]	obj	The object.
[out]	align_x	Alignment in the horizontal axis (0 <= align_x <= 1).
[out]	align_y	Alignment in the vertical axis (0 <= align_y <= 1).

Since :: 2.3

Examples:: gengrid_example.c.

void elm_gengrid_align_set	(	Elm_Gengrid *	obj,
		double	align_x,
		double	align_y
	)

Set the items grid's alignment within a given gengrid widget.

This sets the alignment of the whole grid of items of a gengrid within its given viewport. By default, those values are both 0.5, meaning that the gengrid will have its items grid placed exactly in the middle of its viewport.

Note:: If given alignment values are out of the cited ranges, they'll be changed to the nearest boundary values on the valid ranges.

Parameters:

[in]	obj	The object.
[in]	align_x	Alignment in the horizontal axis (0 <= align_x <= 1).
[in]	align_y	Alignment in the vertical axis (0 <= align_y <= 1).

Since :: 2.3

Examples:: gengrid_example.c.

Elm_Widget_Item* elm_gengrid_at_xy_item_get	(	const Elm_Gengrid *	obj,
		int	x,
		int	y,
		int *	xposret,
		int *	yposret
	)

Get the item that is at the x, y canvas coords.

This returns the item at the given coordinates (which are canvas relative, not object-relative). If an item is at that coordinate, that item handle is returned, and if xposret is not null, the integer pointed to is set to a value of -1, 0 or 1, depending if the coordinate is on the left portion of that item (-1), on the middle section (0) or on the right part (1).

If yposret is not null, the integer pointed to is set to a value of -1, 0 or 1, depending if the coordinate is on the upper portion of that item (-1), on the middle section (0) or on the lower part (1). If NULL is returned as an item (no item found there), then posret may indicate -1 or 1 based if the coordinate is above or below all items respectively in the gengrid.

Parameters:

[in]	obj	The object.
[in]	x	The input x coordinate.
[in]	y	The input y coordinate.
[out]	xposret	The position relative to the item returned here.
[out]	yposret	The position relative to the item returned here.

Returns:: The item at the coordinates or null if none.

EINA_DEPRECATED void elm_gengrid_bounce_get	(	const Evas_Object *	obj,
		Eina_Bool *	h_bounce,
		Eina_Bool *	v_bounce
	)

Get whether bouncing effects are enabled or disabled, for a given gengrid widget, on each axis

Parameters:

obj	The gengrid object
h_bounce	Pointer to a variable where to store the horizontal bouncing flag.
v_bounce	Pointer to a variable where to store the vertical bouncing flag.

Deprecated:: Use elm_scroller_bounce_get() instead.

See also:: elm_scroller_bounce_get()

EINA_DEPRECATED void elm_gengrid_bounce_set	(	Evas_Object *	obj,
		Eina_Bool	h_bounce,
		Eina_Bool	v_bounce
	)

Enable or disable bouncing effect for a given gengrid widget

Parameters:

obj	The gengrid object
h_bounce	`EINA_TRUE`, to enable horizontal bouncing, `EINA_FALSE` to disable it
v_bounce	`EINA_TRUE`, to enable vertical bouncing, `EINA_FALSE` to disable it

The bouncing effect occurs whenever one reaches the gengrid's edge's while panning it -- it will scroll past its limits a little bit and return to the edge again, in a animated for, automatically.

Note:: By default, gengrids have bouncing enabled on both axis

Deprecated:: Use elm_scroller_bounce_set() instead.

See also:: elm_scroller_bounce_set()

void elm_gengrid_clear ( Elm_Gengrid * obj )

Remove all items from a given gengrid widget.

This removes (and deletes) all items in obj, leaving it empty.

See elm_gengrid_item_del to remove just one item.

Parameters:

[in] obj The object.

Since :: 2.3

Examples:: gengrid_example.c.

Eina_Bool elm_gengrid_filled_get ( const Elm_Gengrid * obj )

Get how the items grid's filled within a given gengrid widget.

Note:: Use null pointers on the alignment values you're not interested in: they'll be ignored by the function.

Parameters:

[in] obj The object.

Returns:: true if the grid is filled, false otherwise

Since :: 2.3

void elm_gengrid_filled_set	(	Elm_Gengrid *	obj,
		Eina_Bool	fill
	)

Set how the items grid's filled within a given gengrid widget.

This sets the fill state of the whole grid of items of a gengrid within its given viewport. By default, this value is false, meaning that if the first line of items grid's isn't filled, the items are centered with the alignment.

Parameters:

[in]	obj	The object.
[in]	fill	`true` if the grid is filled, `false` otherwise

Since :: 2.3

Elm_Widget_Item* elm_gengrid_first_item_get ( const Elm_Gengrid * obj )

Get the first item in a given gengrid widget.

This returns the first item in the obj's internal list of items.

Parameters:

[in] obj The object.

Returns:: The first item's handle or null, if there are no items in obj (and on errors)

Since :: 2.3

Examples:: gengrid_example.c.

void elm_gengrid_group_item_size_get	(	const Elm_Gengrid *	obj,
		int *	w,
		int *	h
	)

Get the size set for the group items of a given gengrid widget.

	)

Set the type of mouse pointer/cursor decoration to be shown, when the mouse pointer is over the given gengrid widget item

Parameters:

it	gengrid item to customize cursor on
cursor	the cursor type's name

This function works analogously as elm_object_cursor_set(), but here the cursor's changing area is restricted to the item's area, and not the whole widget's. Note that that item cursors have precedence over widget cursors, so that a mouse over item will always show cursor type.

If this function is called twice for an object, a previously set cursor will be unset on the second call.

Parameters:

it	The gengrid item object
mode	The select mode

elm_gengrid_select_mode_set() changes item's select mode.

ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_DEFAULT : The item will only call their selection func and callback when first becoming selected. Any further clicks will do nothing, unless you set always select mode.
ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_ALWAYS : This means that, even if selected, every click will make the selected callbacks be called.
ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_NONE : This will turn off the ability to select the item entirely and they will neither appear selected nor call selected callback functions.
ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_DISPLAY_ONLY : This will apply no-finger-size rule with ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_NONE. No-finger-size rule makes an item can be smaller than lower limit. Clickable objects should be bigger than human touch point device (your finger) for some touch or small screen devices. So it is enabled, the item can be shrink than predefined finger-size value. And the item will be updated.

	)

Set the scrollbar policy

Parameters:

obj	The gengrid object
policy_h	Horizontal scrollbar policy.
policy_v	Vertical scrollbar policy.

This sets the scrollbar visibility policy for the given gengrid scroller. ELM_SCROLLER_POLICY_AUTO means the scrollbar is made visible if it is needed, and otherwise kept hidden. ELM_SCROLLER_POLICY_ON turns it on all the time, and ELM_SCROLLER_POLICY_OFF always keeps it off. This applies respectively for the horizontal and vertical scrollbars. Default is ELM_SCROLLER_POLICY_AUTO.

		Elm_Glob_Match_Flags	flags
	)

Get gengrid item by given string.

It takes pointer to the gengrid item that will be used to start search from it.

This function uses globs (like "*.jpg") for searching and takes search flags as last parameter That is a bitfield with values to be ored together or 0 for no flags.

Parameters:

[in]	obj	The object.
[in]	item_to_search_from	Pointer to item to start search from. If `null`, search will be started from the first item of the gengrid.
[in]	part_name	Name of the TEXT part of gengrid item to search string in. If `null`, search by "elm.text" parts.
[in]	pattern	The search pattern.
[in]	flags	Search flags.

Returns:: Pointer to the gengrid item which matches search_string in case of success, otherwise null.

Elm_Object_Select_Mode elm_gengrid_select_mode_get ( const Elm_Gengrid * obj )

Get the gengrid select mode.

Parameters:

[in] obj The object.

Returns:: The select mode.

Since :: 2.3

void elm_gengrid_select_mode_set	(	Elm_Gengrid *	obj,
		Elm_Object_Select_Mode	mode
	)

Set the gengrid select mode.

This changes item select mode in the gengrid widget. ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_DEFAULT means that items will only call their selection func and callback when first becoming selected. Any further clicks will do nothing, unless you set always select mode. ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_ALWAYS means that even if selected, every click will make the selected callbacks be called. ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_NONE will turn off the ability to select items entirely and they will neither appear selected nor call selected callback functions.

Parameters:

[in]	obj	The object.
[in]	mode	The select mode.

Since :: 2.3

Examples:: gengrid_example.c.

Elm_Widget_Item* elm_gengrid_selected_item_get ( const Elm_Gengrid * obj )

Get the selected item in a given gengrid widget.

This returns the selected item in obj. If multi selection is enabled on obj (See elm_gengrid_multi_select_set), only the first item in the list is selected, which might not be very useful. For that case, see elm_gengrid_selected_items_get.

Parameters:

[in] obj The object.

Returns:: The selected item's handle or null if none is selected at the moment (and on errors).

Since :: 2.3

Examples:: gengrid_example.c.

const Eina_List* elm_gengrid_selected_items_get ( const Elm_Gengrid * obj )

Parameters:

[in] obj The object.

Returns:: The list of selected items or null, if none is selected at the moment (and on errors).

Since :: 2.3

Examples:: gengrid_example.c.
