Circle Datetime

This feature is supported in wearable applications only.

The circle datetime component extends the datetime component (elm_datetime) by visualizing the selected field. If a rotary event is activated by the eext_rotary_object_event_activated_set()function, the circle datetime increases or decreases the value of the selected field in the elm_datetime component through the clockwise or counter-clockwise rotary event.

For more information, see the Efl Extension Circle Datetime API.

Adding a Circle Datetime Component

To create a circle datetime component, use the eext_circle_object_datetime_add() function:

• The elm_datetime handle must be passed as the first parameter.
• If a circle surface is passed as the second parameter, a circle object connected with a circle surface is created, and it is rendered by the circle surface. If you pass NULL instead of a circle surface, the new circle object is managed and rendered by itself.

Evas_Object *datetime;
Evas_Object *circle_datetime;

datetime = elm_datetime_add(parent);
circle_datetime = eext_circle_object_datetime_add(datetime, surface);

The circle datetime component is created with the default style.

Activating a Rotary Event

To activate or deactivate the circle datetime, use the eext_rotary_object_event_activated_set() function:

eext_rotary_object_event_activated_set(circle_datetime, EINA_TRUE);

If the second parameter is EINA_TRUE, the circle datetime can receive rotary events.

Configuring the Circle Properties

To configure the circle properties of the circle datetime:

• You can disable the circle object within the circle datetime component using the following functions:

  • eext_circle_object_disabled_set()
  • eext_circle_object_disabled_get()
