The Fl is the FLTK global (static) class containing state information and global methods for the current application.
| enum Fl::Fl_Option |
Enumerator for global FLTK options.
These options can be set system wide, per user, or for the running application only.
| Enumerator | |
|---|---|
| OPTION_ARROW_FOCUS |
When switched on, moving the text cursor beyond the start or end of a text in a text widget will change focus to the next text widget. (This is considered 'old' behavior) When switched off (default), the cursor will stop at the end of the text. Pressing Tab or Ctrl-Tab will advance the keyboard focus. See also: Fl_Input_::tab_nav() |
| OPTION_VISIBLE_FOCUS |
If visible focus is switched on (default), FLTK will draw a dotted rectangle inside the widget that will receive the next keystroke. If switched off, no such indicator will be drawn and keyboard navigation is disabled. |
| OPTION_DND_TEXT |
If text drag-and-drop is enabled (default), the user can select and drag text from any text widget. If disabled, no dragging is possible, however dropping text from other applications still works. |
| OPTION_SHOW_TOOLTIPS |
If tooltips are enabled (default), hovering the mouse over a widget with a tooltip text will open a little tooltip window until the mouse leaves the widget. If disabled, no tooltip is shown. |
| OPTION_FNFC_USES_GTK |
When switched on (default), Fl_Native_File_Chooser runs GTK file dialogs if the GTK library is available on the platform (linux/unix only). When switched off, GTK file dialogs aren't used even if the GTK library is available. |
| OPTION_LAST |
For internal use only. |
|
static |
Adds an awake handler for use in awake().
|
static |
FLTK will call this callback just before it flushes the display and waits for events.
This is different than an idle callback because it is only called once, then FLTK calls the system and tells it not to return until an event happens.
This can be used by code that wants to monitor the application's state, such as to keep a display up to date. The advantage of using a check callback is that it is called only when no events are pending. If events are coming in quickly, whole blocks of them will be processed before this is called once. This can save significant time and avoid the application falling behind the events.
Sample code:
|
static |
Adds file descriptor fd to listen to.
When the fd becomes ready for reading Fl::wait() will call the callback and then return. The callback is passed the fd and the arbitrary void* argument.
The second version takes a when bitfield, with the bits FL_READ, FL_WRITE, and FL_EXCEPT defined, to indicate when the callback should be done.
There can only be one callback of each type for a file descriptor. Fl::remove_fd() gets rid of all the callbacks for a given file descriptor.
Under UNIX any file descriptor can be monitored (files, devices, pipes, sockets, etc.). Due to limitations in Microsoft Windows, WIN32 applications can only monitor sockets.
|
static |
Adds a callback function that is called every time by Fl::wait() and also makes it act as though the timeout is zero (this makes Fl::wait() return immediately, so if it is in a loop it is called repeatedly, and thus the idle fucntion is called repeatedly).
The idle function can be used to get background processing done.
You can have multiple idle callbacks. To remove an idle callback use Fl::remove_idle().
Fl::wait() and Fl::check() call idle callbacks, but Fl::ready() does not.
The idle callback can call any FLTK functions, including Fl::wait(), Fl::check(), and Fl::ready().
FLTK will not recursively call the idle callback.
|
static |
Adds a one-shot timeout callback.
The function will be called by Fl::wait() at t seconds after this function is called. The optional void* argument is passed to the callback.
You can have multiple timeout callbacks. To remove a timeout callback use Fl::remove_timeout().
If you need more accurate, repeated timeouts, use Fl::repeat_timeout() to reschedule the subsequent timeouts.
The following code will print "TICK" each second on stdout with a fair degree of accuracy:
|
static |
Parse a single switch from argv, starting at word i.
Returns the number of words eaten (1 or 2, or 0 if it is not recognized) and adds the same value to i.
This is the default argument handler used internally by Fl::args(...), but you can use this function if you prefer to step through the standard FLTK switches yourself.
All standard FLTK switches except -bg2 may be abbreviated to just one letter and case is ignored:
If your program requires other switches in addition to the standard FLTK options, you will need to pass your own argument handler to Fl::args(int,char**,int&,Fl_Args_Handler) explicitly.
|
static |
Parse command line switches using the cb argument handler.
Returns 0 on error, or the number of words processed.
FLTK provides this as an entirely optional command line switch parser. You don't have to call it if you don't want to. Everything it can do can be done with other calls to FLTK.
To use the switch parser, call Fl::args(...) near the start of your program. This does not open the display, instead switches that need the display open are stashed into static variables. Then you must display your first window by calling window->show(argc,argv), which will do anything stored in the static variables.
Providing an argument handler callback cb lets you define your own switches. It is called with the same argc and argv, and with i set to the index of the switch to be processed. The cb handler should return zero if the switch is unrecognized, and not change i. It should return non-zero to indicate the number of words processed if the switch is recognized, i.e. 1 for just the switch, and more than 1 for the switch plus associated parameters. i should be incremented by the same amount.
The cb handler is called before any other tests, so you can also override any standard FLTK switch (this is why FLTK can use very short switches instead of the long ones all other toolkits force you to use). See Fl::arg() for descriptions of the standard switches.
On return i is set to the index of the first non-switch. This is either:
argc The return value is i unless an unrecognized switch is found, in which case it is zero. If your program takes no arguments other than switches you should produce an error if the return value is less than argc.
A usage string is displayed if Fl::args() detects an invalid argument on the command-line. You can change the message by setting the Fl::help pointer.
A very simple command line parser can be found in examples/howto-parse-args.cxx
The simpler Fl::args(int argc, char **argv) form is useful if your program does not have command line switches of its own.

Parse all command line switches matching standard FLTK options only.
It parses all the switches, and if any are not recognized it calls Fl::abort(Fl::help), i.e. unlike the long form, an unrecognized switch generates an error message and causes the program to exit.
Changes fl_color(FL_BACKGROUND_COLOR) to the given color, and changes the gray ramp from 32 to 56 to black to white.
These are the colors used as backgrounds by almost all widgets and used to draw the edges of all the boxtypes.
Changes the alternative background color.
This color is used as a background by Fl_Input and other text widgets.
This call may change fl_color(FL_FOREGROUND_COLOR) if it does not provide sufficient contrast to FL_BACKGROUND2_COLOR.

Returns the width offset for the given boxtype.

Returns the X offset for the given boxtype.
|
static |
Returns the Y offset for the given boxtype.
These functions return the offset values necessary for a given boxtype, useful for computing the area inside a box's borders, to prevent overdrawing the borders.
For instance, in the case of a boxtype like FL_DOWN_BOX where the border width might be 2 pixels all around, the above functions would return 2, 2, 4, and 4 for box_dx, box_dy, box_dw, and box_dh respectively.
An example to compute the area inside a widget's box():
These functions are mainly useful in the draw() code for deriving custom widgets, where one wants to avoid drawing over the widget's own border box().

Same as Fl::wait(0).
Calling this during a big calculation will keep the screen up to date and the interface responsive:
This returns non-zero if any windows are displayed, and 0 if no windows are displayed (this is likely to change in future versions of FLTK).

If true then flush() will do something.
|
static |
Sets the X display to use for all windows.
Actually this just sets the environment variable $DISPLAY to the passed string, so this only works before you show() the first window or otherwise open the display, and does nothing useful under WIN32.

Gets or sets whether drag and drop text operations are supported.
This specifically affects whether selected text can be dragged from text fields or dragged within a text field as a cut/paste shortcut.

Determines if the current draw box is active or inactive.
If inactive, the box color is changed by the inactive color.
|
static |
Causes all the windows that need it to be redrawn and graphics forced out through the pipes.
This is what wait() does before looking for events.
Note: in multi-threaded applications you should only call Fl::flush() from the main thread. If a child thread needs to trigger a redraw event, it should instead call Fl::awake() to get the main thread to process the event queue.

static |
Gets the last stored awake handler for use in awake().
|
static |
Gets the current box drawing function for the specified box type.

Read the user preference colors from the system and use them to call Fl::foreground(), Fl::background(), and Fl::background2().
This is done by Fl_Window::show(argc,argv) before applying the -fg and -bg switches.
On X this reads some common values from the Xdefaults database. KDE users can set these values by running the "krdb" program, and newer versions of KDE set this automatically if you check the "apply style to other X programs" switch in their control panel.

This does the same thing as Fl::visual(int) but also requires OpenGL drawing to work.
This must be done if you want to draw in normal windows with OpenGL with gl_start() and gl_end(). It may be useful to call this so your X windows use the same visual as an Fl_Gl_Window, which on some servers will reduce colormap flashing.
See Fl_Gl_Window for a list of additional values for the argument.

Returns whether the current scheme is the given name.
This is a fast inline convenience function to support scheme-specific code in widgets, e.g. in their draw() methods, if required.
Use a valid scheme name, not NULL (although NULL is allowed, this is not a useful argument - see below).
If Fl::scheme() has not been set or has been set to the default scheme ("none" or "base"), then this will always return 0 regardless of the argument, because Fl::scheme() is NULL in this case.
Example:
| [in] | name | lowercase string of requested scheme name. |

FLTK library options management.
This function needs to be documented in more detail. It can be used for more optional settings, such as using a native file chooser instead of the FLTK one wherever possible, disabling tooltips, disabling visible focus, disabling FLTK file chooser preview, etc. .
There should be a command line option interface.
There should be an application that manages options system wide, per user, and per application.
Example:
| opt | which option |
|
static |
Override an option while the application is running.
This function does not change any system or user settings.
Example:
| opt | which option |
| val | set to true or false |
|

Makes FLTK use its own colormap.
This may make FLTK display better and will reduce conflicts with other programs that want lots of colors. However the colors may flash as you move the cursor between windows.
This does nothing if the current visual is not colormapped.
|
static |
This is similar to Fl::check() except this does not call Fl::flush() or any callbacks, which is useful if your program is in a state where such callbacks are illegal.
This returns true if Fl::check() would do anything (it will continue to return true until you call Fl::check() or Fl::wait()).

Releases the current grabbed window, equals grab(0).

Called by scheme according to scheme name.
Loads or reloads the current scheme selection. See void scheme(const char *name)

Repeats a timeout callback from the expiration of the previous timeout, allowing for more accurate timing.
You may only call this method inside a timeout callback.
The following code will print "TICK" each second on stdout with a fair degree of accuracy:

As long as any windows are displayed this calls Fl::wait() repeatedly.
When all the windows are closed it returns zero (supposedly it would return non-zero on any errors, but FLTK calls exit directly for these). A normal program will end main() with return Fl::run();.
|
static |
Sets the current widget scheme.
NULL will use the scheme defined in the FLTK_SCHEME environment variable or the scheme resource under X11. Otherwise, any of the following schemes can be used:
- "none" - This is the default look-n-feel which resembles old
Windows (95/98/Me/NT/2000) and old GTK/KDE
- "base" - This is an alias for "none"
- "plastic" - This scheme is inspired by the Aqua user interface
on Mac OS X
- "gtk+" - This scheme is inspired by the Red Hat Bluecurve theme
- "gleam" - This scheme is inspired by the Clearlooks Glossy scheme.
(Colin Jones and Edmanuel Torres).
Uppercase scheme names are equivalent, but the stored scheme name will always be lowercase and Fl::scheme() will return this lowercase name.
If the resulting scheme name is not defined, the default scheme will be used and Fl::scheme() will return NULL.

Selects a visual so that your graphics are drawn correctly.
This is only allowed before you call show() on any windows. This does nothing if the default visual satisfies the capabilities, or if no visual satisfies the capabilities, or on systems that don't have such brain-dead notions.
Only the following combinations do anything useful:
This returns true if the system has the capabilities by default or FLTK suceeded in turing them on. Your program will still work even if this returns false (it just won't look as good).
|

Waits until "something happens" and then returns.
Call this repeatedly to "run" your program. You can also check what happened each time after this returns, which is quite useful for managing program state.
What this really does is call all idle callbacks, all elapsed timeouts, call Fl::flush() to get the screen to update, and then wait some time (zero if there are idle callbacks, the shortest of all pending timeouts, or infinity), for any events from the user or any Fl::add_fd() callbacks. It then handles the events and calls the callbacks and then returns.
The return value of Fl::wait() is non-zero if there are any visible windows - this may change in future versions of FLTK.
Fl::wait(time) waits a maximum of time seconds. It can return much sooner if something happens.
The return value is positive if an event or fd happens before the time elapsed. It is zero if nothing happens (on Win32 this will only return zero if time is zero). It is negative if an error occurs (this will happen on UNIX if a signal happens).

The currently executing idle callback function: DO NOT USE THIS DIRECTLY!
This is now used as part of a higher level system allowing multiple idle callback functions to be called.
