[legend]

## Detailed Description

wxPropertyGrid is a specialized grid for editing properties - in other words name = value pairs.

List of ready-to-use property classes include strings, numbers, flag sets, fonts, colours and many others. It is possible, for example, to categorize properties, set up a complete tree-hierarchy, add more than two columns, and set arbitrary per-property attributes.

Please note that most member functions are inherited and as such not documented on this page. This means you will probably also want to read wxPropertyGridInterface class reference.

See also wxPropertyGrid Overview.

# Window Styles

See wxPropertyGrid Window Styles.

# Event Handling

Please see wxPropertyGridEvent for the documentation of all event types you can use with wxPropertyGrid.

Remarks
  Use Freeze() and Thaw() respectively to disable and enable drawing. This will also delay sorting etc. miscellaneous calculations to the last possible moment.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ AddActionTrigger()

void wxPropertyGrid::AddActionTrigger | ( | int | action,
|  | int | keycode,
|  | int | modifiers = 0 )

Adds given key combination to trigger given action.

Here is a sample code to make Enter key press move focus to the next property.

propGrid->AddActionTrigger(wxPG_ACTION_NEXT_PROPERTY,
WXK_RETURN);
propGrid->DedicateKey(WXK_RETURN);
WXK_RETURN
@ WXK_RETURN
Definition defs.h:914
wxPG_ACTION_NEXT_PROPERTY
@ wxPG_ACTION_NEXT_PROPERTY
Select the next property.
Definition propgrid.h:400

Parameters

  action | Which action to trigger. See wxPropertyGrid Action Identifiers.
  keycode | Which keycode triggers the action.
  modifiers | Which key event modifiers, in addition to keycode, are needed to trigger the action.

## ◆ AddToSelection()

bool wxPropertyGrid::AddToSelection | ( | wxPGPropArg | id | ) |

Adds given property into selection.

If wxPG_EX_MULTIPLE_SELECTION extra style is not used, then this has same effect as calling SelectProperty().

Remarks
  Multiple selection is not supported for categories. This means that if you have properties selected, you cannot add category to selection, and also if you have category selected, you cannot add other properties to selection. This member function will fail silently in these cases, even returning true.

## ◆ AutoGetTranslation()

void wxPropertyGrid::AutoGetTranslation | ( | bool | enable | ) |
| static

This static function enables or disables automatic use of wxGetTranslation() for following strings: wxEnumProperty list labels, wxFlagsProperty child property labels.

Default is false.

## ◆ BeginLabelEdit()

void wxPropertyGrid::BeginLabelEdit | ( | unsigned int | colIndex = 0 | ) |

Creates label editor wxTextCtrl for given column, for property that is currently selected.

When multiple selection is enabled, this applies to whatever property GetSelection() returns.

Parameters

  colIndex | Which column's label to edit. Note that you should not use value 1, which is reserved for property value column.

See also
  EndLabelEdit(), MakeColumnEditable()

## ◆ CenterSplitter()

void wxPropertyGrid::CenterSplitter | ( | bool | enableAutoResizing = false | ) |

Centers the splitter.

Parameters

  enableAutoResizing | If true, automatic column resizing is enabled (only applicable if window style wxPG_SPLITTER_AUTO_CENTER is used).

## ◆ ChangePropertyValue()

bool wxPropertyGrid::ChangePropertyValue | ( | wxPGPropArg | id,
|  | wxVariant | newValue )

Changes value of a property, as if from an editor.

Use this instead of SetPropertyValue() if you need the value to run through validation process, and also send `wxEVT_PG_CHANGED`.

Remarks
  Since this function sends `wxEVT_PG_CHANGED`, it should not be called from `EVT_PG_CHANGED` handler.

Returns
  Returns true if value was successfully changed.

## ◆ Clear()

virtual void wxPropertyGrid::Clear | ( |  | ) |
| virtual

Deletes all properties.

Implements wxPropertyGridInterface.

## ◆ CommitChangesFromEditor()

virtual bool wxPropertyGrid::CommitChangesFromEditor | ( | wxUint32 | flags = 0 | ) |
| virtual

Forces updating the value of property from the editor control.

Note that `wxEVT_PG_CHANGING` and `wxEVT_PG_CHANGED` are dispatched using ProcessEvent, meaning your event handlers will be called immediately.

Returns
  Returns true if anything was changed.

## ◆ Create()

bool wxPropertyGrid::Create | ( | wxWindow * | parent,
|  | wxWindowID | id = wxID_ANY,
|  | const wxPoint & | pos = wxDefaultPosition,
|  | const wxSize & | size = wxDefaultSize,
|  | long | style = wxPG_DEFAULT_STYLE,
|  | const wxString & | name = wxPropertyGridNameStr )

Two step creation.

Whenever the control is created without any parameters, use Create to actually create it. Don't access the control's public methods before this is called

See also
  wxPropertyGrid Window Styles.

## ◆ DedicateKey()

void wxPropertyGrid::DedicateKey | ( | int | keycode | ) |

Dedicates a specific keycode to wxPropertyGrid.

This means that such key presses will not be redirected to editor controls.

Using this function allows, for example, navigation between properties using arrow keys even when the focus is in the editor control.

## ◆ DoHidePropertyError()

virtual void wxPropertyGrid::DoHidePropertyError | ( | wxPGProperty * | property | ) |
| virtual

Override in derived class to hide an error displayed by DoShowPropertyError().

See also
  DoShowPropertyError()

## ◆ DoOnValidationFailure()

  Returns pointer to the editor class instance that should be used.

## ◆ DoShowPropertyError()

virtual void wxPropertyGrid::DoShowPropertyError | ( | wxPGProperty * | property,
|  | const wxString & | msg )
| virtual

Override in derived class to display error messages in custom manner (these message usually only result from validation failure).

Remarks
  If you implement this, then you also need to implement DoHidePropertyError() - possibly to do nothing, if error does not need hiding (e.g. it was logged or shown in a message box).

See also
  DoHidePropertyError()

## ◆ DrawItemAndValueRelated()

int wxPropertyGrid::GetSplitterPosition | ( | unsigned int | splitterIndex = 0 | ) | const

Returns current splitter x position.

## ◆ GetStatusBar()

virtual wxStatusBar * wxPropertyGrid::GetStatusBar | ( |  | ) |
| virtual

Return wxStatusBar that is used by this wxPropertyGrid.

You can reimplement this member function in derived class to override the default behaviour of using the top-level wxFrame's status bar, if any.

## ◆ GetUncommittedPropertyValue()

wxVariant wxPropertyGrid::GetUncommittedPropertyValue | ( |  | ) |

Returns most up-to-date value of selected property.

This will return value different from GetSelectedProperty()->GetValue() only when text editor is activate and string edited by user represents valid, uncommitted property value.

## ◆ GetUnspecifiedValueAppearance()

const wxPGCell & wxPropertyGrid::GetUnspecifiedValueAppearance | ( |  | ) | const

Returns current appearance of unspecified value cells.

  SetUnspecifiedValueAppearance()

## ◆ GetUnspecifiedValueText()

wxString wxPropertyGrid::GetUnspecifiedValueText | ( | int | argFlags = 0 | ) | const

Returns (visual) text representation of the unspecified property value.

Parameters

  argFlags | For internal use only.

## ◆ GetVerticalSpacing()

int wxPropertyGrid::GetVerticalSpacing | ( |  | ) | const

Returns current vertical spacing.

## ◆ HitTest()

wxPropertyGridHitTestResult wxPropertyGrid::HitTest | ( | const wxPoint & | pt | ) | const

Returns information about arbitrary position in the grid.

Parameters

  pt | Coordinates in the virtual grid space. You may need to use wxScrolled<T>::CalcScrolledPosition() for translating wxPropertyGrid client coordinates into something this member function can use.

## ◆ IsAnyModified()

bool wxPropertyGrid::IsAnyModified | ( |  | ) | const

Returns true if any property has been modified by the user.

## ◆ IsEditorFocused()

bool wxPropertyGrid::IsEditorFocused | ( |  | ) | const

Returns true if a property editor control has focus.

## ◆ IsEditorsValueModified()

bool wxPropertyGrid::IsEditorsValueModified | ( |  | ) | const

Returns true if editor's value was marked modified.

## ◆ IsFrozen()

bool wxPropertyGrid::IsFrozen | ( |  | ) | const

Returns true if updating is frozen (i.e.

Freeze() called but not yet Thaw() ).

## ◆ MakeColumnEditable()

void wxPropertyGrid::MakeColumnEditable | ( | unsigned int | column,
|  | bool | editable = true )

Makes given column editable by user.

Parameters

  column | The index of the column to make editable.
  editable | Using false here will disable column from being editable.

Note that column must not be equal to 1, as the second column is always editable and can be made read-only only on cell-by-cell basis using

wxPGProperty::ChangeFlag(wxPG_PROP_READONLY, true)
wxPGProperty::ChangeFlag
void ChangeFlag(wxPGPropertyFlags flag, bool set)
Sets or clears given property flag.
wxPG_PROP_READONLY
@ wxPG_PROP_READONLY
Property is read-only.
Definition property.h:330

## ◆ OnTLPChanging()

void wxPropertyGrid::OnTLPChanging | ( | wxWindow * | newTLP | ) |

It is recommended that you call this function any time your code causes wxPropertyGrid's top-level parent to change.

wxPropertyGrid's OnIdle() handler should be able to detect most changes, but it is not perfect.

Parameters

  newTLP | New top-level parent that is about to be set. Old top-level parent window should still exist as the current one.

Remarks
  This function is automatically called from wxPropertyGrid:: Reparent() and wxPropertyGridManager::Reparent(). You only need to use it if you reparent wxPropertyGrid indirectly.

## ◆ RefreshEditor()

void wxPropertyGrid::RefreshEditor | ( |  | ) |

Refreshes any active editor control.

## ◆ RefreshProperty()

virtual void wxPropertyGrid::RefreshProperty | ( | wxPGProperty * | p | ) |
| virtual

Redraws given property.

Implements wxPropertyGridInterface.

## ◆ RegisterEditorClass()

wxPGEditor * wxPropertyGrid::RegisterEditorClass | ( | wxPGEditor * | editor,
|  | bool | noDefCheck = false )
| static

Forwards to DoRegisterEditorClass with empty name.

## ◆ RemoveFromSelection()

bool wxPropertyGrid::RemoveFromSelection | ( | wxPGPropArg | id | ) |

Removes given property from selection.

If property is not selected, an assertion failure will occur.

## ◆ ResetColours()

void wxPropertyGrid::ResetColours | ( |  | ) |

Resets all colours to the original system values.

## ◆ ResetColumnSizes()

void wxPropertyGrid::ResetColumnSizes | ( | bool | enableAutoResizing = false | ) |

Resets column sizes and splitter positions, based on proportions.

Parameters

  enableAutoResizing | If true, automatic column resizing is enabled (only applicable if window style wxPG_SPLITTER_AUTO_CENTER is used).

  wxPropertyGridInterface::SetColumnProportion()

## ◆ SelectProperty()

bool wxPropertyGrid::SelectProperty | ( | wxPGPropArg | id,
|  | bool | focus = false )

Selects a property.

Editor widget is automatically created, but not focused unless focus is true.

Parameters

  id | Property to select (name or pointer).
  focus | If true, move keyboard focus to the created editor right away.

Returns
  returns true if selection finished successfully. Usually only fails if current value in editor is not valid.

Remarks
  In wxWidgets 2.9 and later, this function no longer sends `wxEVT_PG_SELECTED`.
  This clears any previous selection.

## ◆ SetSortFunction()

void wxPropertyGrid::SetSortFunction | ( | wxPGSortCallback | sortFunction | ) |

Sets the property sorting function.

Parameters

  sortFunction | The sorting function to be used. It should return a value greater than 0 if position of p1 is after p2. So, for instance, when comparing property names, you can use following implementation:

int MyPropertySortFunction(wxPropertyGrid* propGrid,
wxPGProperty* p1,
wxPGProperty* p2)
{
return p1->GetBaseName().compare( p2->GetBaseName() );
}
wxPGProperty
wxPGProperty is base class for all wxPropertyGrid properties and as such it is not intended to be ins...
Definition property.h:882
wxPGProperty::GetBaseName
const wxString & GetBaseName() const
Returns property's base name (i.e.
wxPropertyGrid::wxPropertyGrid
wxPropertyGrid()
Two step constructor.
wxString::compare
int compare(const wxString &str) const
An 'invalid' value for string index.

Remarks
  Default property sort function sorts properties by their labels (case-insensitively).

## ◆ SetSplitterLeft()

void wxPropertyGrid::SetSplitterLeft | ( | bool | privateChildrenToo = false | ) |

Moves splitter as left as possible, while still allowing all labels to be shown in full.

Parameters

  privateChildrenToo | If false, will still allow private children to be cropped.

## ◆ SetSplitterPosition()

void wxPropertyGrid::SetSplitterPosition | ( | int | newxpos,
|  | int | col = 0 )

Sets x coordinate of the splitter.

Remarks
  Splitter position cannot exceed grid size, and therefore setting it during form creation may fail as initial grid size is often smaller than desired splitter position, especially when sizers are being used.

## ◆ SetUnspecifiedValueAppearance()

void wxPropertyGrid::SetUnspecifiedValueAppearance | ( | const wxPGCell & | cell | ) |

Sets appearance of value cells representing an unspecified property value.

Default appearance is blank.

Remarks
  If you set the unspecified value to have any textual representation, then that will override "InlineHelp" attribute.

  wxPGProperty::SetValueToUnspecified(), wxPGProperty::IsValueUnspecified()

## ◆ SetupTextCtrlValue()

void wxPropertyGrid::SetupTextCtrlValue | ( | const wxString & | text | ) |

Must be called in wxPGEditor::CreateControls() if primary editor window is wxTextCtrl, just before textctrl is created.

Parameters

  text | Initial text value of created wxTextCtrl.

## ◆ SetVerticalSpacing()

void wxPropertyGrid::SetVerticalSpacing | ( | int | vspacing | ) |

Sets vertical spacing.

Can be 1, 2, or 3 - a value relative to font height. Value of 2 should be default on most platforms.

## ◆ SetVirtualWidth()

void wxPropertyGrid::SetVirtualWidth | ( | int | width | ) |

Set virtual width for this particular page.

Width -1 indicates that the virtual width should be disabled.

## ◆ ShowPropertyError()

void wxPropertyGrid::ShowPropertyError | ( | wxPGPropArg | id,
|  | const wxString & | msg )

Shows a brief error message that is related to a property.

## ◆ UnfocusEditor()

bool wxPropertyGrid::UnfocusEditor | ( |  | ) |

Unfocuses or closes editor if one was open, but does not deselect property.

## ◆ ValueChangeInEvent()

void wxPropertyGrid::ValueChangeInEvent | ( | wxVariant | variant | ) |

Call this from wxPGProperty::OnEvent() to cause property value to be changed after the function returns (with true as return value).

ValueChangeInEvent() must be used if you wish the application to be able to use wxEVT_PG_CHANGING to potentially veto the given value.

## ◆ WasValueChangedInEvent()

bool wxPropertyGrid::WasValueChangedInEvent | ( |  | ) | const

You can use this member function, for instance, to detect in wxPGProperty::OnEvent() if wxPGProperty::SetValueInEvent() was already called in wxPGEditor::OnEvent().

It really only detects if was value was changed using wxPGProperty::SetValueInEvent(), which is usually used when a 'picker' dialog is displayed. If value was written by "normal means" in wxPGProperty::StringToValue() or IntToValue(), then this function will return false (on the other hand, wxPGProperty::OnEvent() is not even called in those cases).
