This application is a thorough exercise on the gengrid widget's API. We place an Elementary gengrid widget on a window, with various knobs below its viewport, each one acting on it somehow.
The code's relevant part begins at the grid's creation. After instantiating it, we set its items sizes, so that we don't end with items one finger size wide, only. We're setting them to fat, 150 pixel wide ones, for this example. We give it some size hints, not to be discussed in this context and, than, we register a callback on one of its smart events -- the one coming each time an item gets doubly clicked. There, we just print the item handle's value.
grid = elm_gengrid_add(win); elm_gengrid_item_size_set(grid, 150, 150); evas_object_size_hint_weight_set(grid, EVAS_HINT_EXPAND, EVAS_HINT_EXPAND); evas_object_size_hint_align_set(grid, EVAS_HINT_FILL, EVAS_HINT_FILL); elm_box_pack_end(bx, grid); evas_object_smart_callback_add(grid, "clicked,double", _double_click, NULL); evas_object_smart_callback_add(grid, "longpressed", _long_pressed, NULL); evas_object_show(grid);
/* item double click callback */ static void _double_click(void *data EINA_UNUSED, Evas_Object *obj EINA_UNUSED, void *event_info) { printf("Double click on item with handle %p\n", event_info); }
Before we actually start to deal with the items API, let's show some things items will be using throughout all the code. The first of them is a struct to be used as item data, for all of them:
typedef struct _Example_Item { const char *path; } Example_Item;
That path will be used to index an image, to be swallowed into one of the item's icon spots. The images themselves are distributed with Elementary:
static const char *imgs[9] = { "panel_01.jpg", "plant_01.jpg", "rock_01.jpg", "rock_02.jpg", "sky_01.jpg", "sky_02.jpg", "sky_03.jpg", "sky_04.jpg", "wood_01.jpg", };
We also have an (unique) gengrid item class we'll be using for items in the example:
static Elm_Gengrid_Item_Class *gic = NULL;
gic->item_style = "default"; gic->func.text_get = _grid_label_get; gic->func.content_get = _grid_content_get; gic->func.state_get = _grid_state_get; gic->func.del = _grid_del;
As you see, our items will follow the default theme on gengrid items. For the label fetching code, we return a string composed of the item's image path:
/* label fetching callback */ static char * _grid_label_get(void *data, Evas_Object *obj EINA_UNUSED, const char *part EINA_UNUSED) { const Example_Item *it = data; char buf[256]; snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "Photo %s", it->path); return strdup(buf); }
For item icons, we'll be populating the item default theme's two icon spots, "elm.swallow.icon" and "elm.swallow.end". The former will receive one of the images in our list (in the form of a background), while the latter will be a check widget. Note that we prevent the check to propagate click events, so that the user can toggle its state without messing with the respective item's selection in the grid:
/* icon fetching callback */ static Evas_Object * _grid_content_get(void *data, Evas_Object *obj, const char *part) { const Example_Item *it = data; if (!strcmp(part, "elm.swallow.icon")) { Evas_Object *icon = elm_bg_add(obj); char buf[PATH_MAX]; snprintf(buf, sizeof(buf), "%s/images/%s", elm_app_data_dir_get(), it->path); elm_bg_file_set(icon, buf, NULL); evas_object_size_hint_aspect_set(icon, EVAS_ASPECT_CONTROL_VERTICAL, 1, 1); evas_object_show(icon); return icon; } else if (!strcmp(part, "elm.swallow.end")) { Evas_Object *ck; ck = elm_check_add(obj); evas_object_propagate_events_set(ck, EINA_FALSE); evas_object_show(ck); return ck; } return NULL; }
As the default gengrid item's theme does not have parts implementing item states, we'll be just returning false for every item state:
/* state fetching callback */ static Eina_Bool _grid_state_get(void *data EINA_UNUSED, Evas_Object *obj EINA_UNUSED, const char *part EINA_UNUSED) { return EINA_FALSE; }
Finally, the deletion callback on gengrid items takes care of freeing the item's label string and its data struct:
/* deletion callback */ static void _grid_del(void *data, Evas_Object *obj EINA_UNUSED) { Example_Item *it = data; eina_stringshare_del(it->path); free(it); }
Let's move to item insertion/deletion knobs, them. They are four buttons, above the grid's viewport, namely
- "Append" (to append an item to the grid),
- "Prepend" (to prepend an item to the grid),
- "Insert before" (to insert an item before the selection, on the grid),
- "Insert after" (to insert an item after the selection, on the grid),
- "Clear" (to delete all items in the grid),
- "Bring in 1st" (to make the 1st item visible, by scrolling),
- "Show last" (to directly show the last item),
which are displaced and declared in that order. We're not dealing with the buttons' creation code (see a button example, for more details on it), but with their "clicked" registered callbacks. For all of them, the grid's handle is passed as data. The ones creating new items use a common code, which just gives a new Example_Item struct, with path filled with a random image in our images list:
/* new item with random path */ static Example_Item * _item_new(void) { Example_Item *it; it = malloc(sizeof(*it)); it->path = eina_stringshare_add(imgs[rand() % (sizeof(imgs) / sizeof(imgs[0]))]); return it; }
Moreover, that ones will set a common function to be issued on the selection of the items. There, we print the item handle's value, along with the callback function data. The latter will be NULL, always, because it's what we pass when adding all icons. By using elm_object_item_data_get(), we can have the item data back and, with that, we're priting the item's path string. Finally, we exemplify elm_gengrid_item_pos_get(), printing the item's position in the grid:
/* item selection callback */ static void _grid_sel(void *data, Evas_Object *obj EINA_UNUSED, void *event_info) { unsigned int x, y; Example_Item *it = elm_object_item_data_get(event_info); elm_gengrid_item_pos_get(event_info, &x, &y); printf("Item [%p], with data [%p], path %s, at position (%u, %u)," " has been selected\n", event_info, data, it->path, x, y); }
The appending button will exercise elm_gengrid_item_append(), simply:
/* append an item */ static void _append_bt_clicked(void *data, Evas_Object *obj EINA_UNUSED, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { Evas_Object *grid = data; Example_Item *it = _item_new(); elm_gengrid_item_append(grid, gic, it, _grid_sel, NULL); }
The prepending, naturally, is analogous, but exercising elm_gengrid_item_prepend(), on its turn. The "Insert before" one will expect an item to be selected in the grid, so that it will insert a new item just before it:
/* "insert before" callback */ static void _before_bt_clicked(void *data, Evas_Object *obj EINA_UNUSED, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { Example_Item *it; Evas_Object *grid = data; Elm_Object_Item *sel; sel = elm_gengrid_selected_item_get(grid); if (!sel) return; it = _item_new(); elm_gengrid_item_insert_before(grid, gic, it, sel, _grid_sel, NULL); }
The "Insert after" is analogous, just using elm_gengrid_item_insert_after(), instead. The "Clear" button will, as expected, just issue elm_gengrid_clear():
/* delete items */ static void _clear_cb(void *data, Evas_Object *obj EINA_UNUSED, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { elm_gengrid_clear(data); printf("Clearing the grid!\n"); }
The "Bring in 1st" button is there exercise two gengrid functions -- elm_gengrid_first_item_get() and elm_gengrid_item_bring_in(). With the former, we get a handle to the first item and, with the latter, you'll see that the widget animatedly scrolls its view until we can see that item:
/* bring in 1st item */ static void _bring_1st_clicked(void *data, Evas_Object *obj EINA_UNUSED, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { Elm_Object_Item *gg_it = elm_gengrid_first_item_get(data); if (!gg_it) return; elm_gengrid_item_bring_in(gg_it, ELM_GENGRID_ITEM_SCROLLTO_IN); }
The "Show last", in its turn, will use elm_gengrid_last_item_get() and elm_gengrid_item_show(). The latter differs from elm_gengrid_item_bring_in() in that it immediately replaces the contents of the grid's viewport with the region containing the item in question:
/* show last item */ static void _show_last_clicked(void *data, Evas_Object *obj EINA_UNUSED, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { Elm_Object_Item *gg_it = elm_gengrid_last_item_get(data); if (!gg_it) return; elm_gengrid_item_show(gg_it, ELM_GENGRID_ITEM_SCROLLTO_IN); }
To change the grid's cell (items) size, we've placed a spinner, which has the following "changed" smart callback:
/* change items' size */ static void _size_changed(void *data, Evas_Object *obj, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { Evas_Object *grid = data; int size = elm_spinner_value_get(obj); elm_gengrid_item_size_set(grid, size, size); }
Experiment with it and see how the items are affected. The "Disable item" button will, as the name says, disable the currently selected item:
/* disable selected item */ static void _toggle_disabled_cb(void *data, Evas_Object *obj EINA_UNUSED, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { Elm_Object_Item *gg_it = elm_gengrid_selected_item_get(data); if (!gg_it) return; elm_gengrid_item_selected_set(gg_it, EINA_FALSE); elm_object_item_disabled_set(gg_it, EINA_TRUE); }
To toggle between horizontal and vertical layouting modes on the grid, use the "Horizontal mode" check, which will call the respective API function on the grid:
/* change layouting mode */ static void _horizontal_grid(void *data, Evas_Object *obj, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { Evas_Object *grid = data; elm_gengrid_horizontal_set(grid, elm_check_state_get(obj)); }
If you toggle the check right after that one, "Always select", you'll notice all subsequent clicks on the same grid item will still issue the selection callback on it, what is different from when it's not checked. This is the elm_gengrid_select_mode_set() behavior:
/* "always select" callback */ static void _always_select_change(void *data, Evas_Object *obj, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { Evas_Object *grid = data; Eina_Bool always = elm_check_state_get(obj); if (always) elm_gengrid_select_mode_set(grid, ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_ALWAYS); else elm_gengrid_select_mode_set(grid, ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_DEFAULT); printf("\"Always select\" mode for gengrid items is now %s\n", always ? "on" : "off"); }
One more check follows, "Bouncing", which will turn on/off the bouncing animations on the grid, when one scrolls past its borders. Experiment with scrolling the grid to get the idea, having it turned on and off:
/* "bouncing mode" callback */ static void _bouncing_change(void *data, Evas_Object *obj, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { Evas_Object *grid = data; Eina_Bool bounce = elm_check_state_get(obj); elm_scroller_bounce_set(grid, bounce, bounce); printf("Bouncing effect for gengrid is now %s\n", bounce ? "on" : "off"); }
The next two checks will affect items selection on the grid. The first, "Multi-selection", will make it possible to select more the one item on the grid. Because it wouldn't make sense to fetch for an unique selected item on this case, we also disable two of the buttons, which insert items relatively, if multi-selection is on:
/* multi-selection callback */ static void _multi_change(void *data, Evas_Object *obj, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { Evas_Object *grid = data; Eina_Bool multi = elm_check_state_get(obj); elm_gengrid_multi_select_set(grid, multi); printf("Multi-selection for gengrid is now %s\n", multi ? "on" : "off"); elm_object_disabled_set(before_bt, multi); elm_object_disabled_set(after_bt, multi); if (!multi) { Elm_Object_Item *gg_it; const Eina_List *selected = elm_gengrid_selected_items_get(grid), *l; EINA_LIST_FOREACH(selected, l, gg_it) elm_gengrid_item_selected_set(gg_it, EINA_FALSE); }
Note that we also unselect all items in the grid, when returning from multi-selection mode, making use of elm_gengrid_item_selected_set().
The second check acting on selection, "No selection", is just what its name depicts -- no selection will be allowed anymore, on the grid, while it's on. Check it out for yourself, interacting with the program:
/* no selection callback */ static void _no_sel_change(void *data, Evas_Object *obj, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { Evas_Object *grid = data; Eina_Bool no_sel = elm_check_state_get(obj); if (no_sel) elm_gengrid_select_mode_set(grid, ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_NONE); else elm_gengrid_select_mode_set(grid, ELM_OBJECT_SELECT_MODE_DEFAULT); printf("Selection for gengrid items is now %s\n", no_sel ? "disabled" : "enabled"); }
We have, finally, one more line of knobs, now sliders, to change the grids behavior. The two first will change the horizontal alignment of the whole actual grid of items within the gengrid's viewport:
/* items grid horizontal alignment change */ static void _h_align_change_cb(void *data, Evas_Object *obj, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { double v_align; double val = elm_slider_value_get(obj); elm_gengrid_align_get(data, NULL, &v_align); printf("Setting horizontal alignment to %f\n", val); elm_gengrid_align_set(data, val, v_align); }
Naturally, the vertical counterpart just issues elm_gengrid_align_set() changing the second alignment component, instead.
The last slider will change the grid's page size, relative to its own one. Try to change those values and, one manner of observing the paging behavior, is to scroll softly and release the mouse button, with different page sizes, at different grid positions, while having lots of items in it -- you'll see it snapping to page boundaries differenty, for each configuration:
/* page relative size change */ static void _page_change_cb(void *data, Evas_Object *obj, void *event_info EINA_UNUSED) { double val = elm_slider_value_get(obj); elm_scroller_page_relative_set(data, val, val); printf("Setting grid page's relative size to %f\n", val); }
Note that it starts with three items which we included at will:
_append_bt_clicked(grid, NULL, NULL); _append_bt_clicked(grid, NULL, NULL); _append_bt_clicked(grid, NULL, NULL);
