Libraries.Interface.Controls.Charts.Chart

This class represents a generic chart on the system. By default, charts present visual information to the user and also present themselves as accessible controls to the operating system. This includes a selection, called ChartSelection, that can be queried for information that is relevant to particular kinds of charts. For example, a bar chart might have labels, axes, and bars. Each of these can be navigated up and down to go between parents, with the top-most level being a summary and any ChartItems underneath being representations of the underlying structure of the chart. To put this in perspective, consider that a bar chart might allow one to navigate to a level of a chart that contains the axes, bars, and labels. On the bars, if one presses the down arrow, this now allows the user to navigate between the bars for information and this changes the default selection, which informs the operating system of the change. The broad purpose of this architecture is that it allows the chart to have an overall structure that is different from the graphical structure, allowing the chart itself to set reasonable defaults for how to navigate the control with the keyboard

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Controls.Charts
    use Libraries.Game.Game

    class Main is Games
        action Main
            StartGame()
        end

        action CreateGame
            BarChart chart
            Add(chart)
        end
    end

The MAINTAIN_ASPECT_RATIO layout style is used to calculate one of the dimensions of the Control relative to the other dimension. For example, it can be used to ensure that the width of a Control is always 120% of the height. This style can only be used to calculate one of the two dimensions (width or height) at a time. For example, if the horizontal layout style is MAINTAIN_ASPECT_RATIO, the vertical layout style must be different, such as using the STANDARD style.

This action returns a default behavior for this paricular control. Some controls do nothing by default, like a TextBox that responds to different kinds of input. Others, however, have default behaviors, like a Button or a MenuItem. If there is no default behavior, this action returns undefined.

This action adds a different Item2D into this one, storing the added Item2D at a specific index in the internal array.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

        Item2D parentItem
        Item2D child
        parentItem:Add(0, child)

This action adds a different Item2D into this one. This makes a few things happen. 1. The added item will get this item as its parent. 2. The added item's x and y coordinates will become relative to this Item. 3. Most actions on this Item will also affect the added Item.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

        Item2D parentItem
        Item2D child
        parentItem:Add(child)

This action adds a new Behavior to this Item.

The FIT_FONT layout style is used to ensure a Control's height can fit the Font used in this LayoutProperties, plus padding from the children elements. FIT_FONT is only effective for the vertical layout style, and requires that a Font is present in this LayoutProperties.

This action adds a FocusListener to the Item. When the Item receives a FocusEvent due to either gaining or losing the focus, the listener will be notified.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item
        use Libraries.Interface.Events.FocusListener
        Item myItem
        FocusListener listener
        myItem:AddFocusListener(listener)

This action adds a MouseListener to the Item. If the Item ever receives a MouseEvent due to a mouse click, the mouse listener will be notified.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item
        use Libraries.Interface.Events.MouseListener
        Item myItem
        MouseListener listener
        myItem:AddMouseListener(listener)

This action adds a MouseMovementListener to the Item. If the Item ever receives a MouseEvent due to mouse movement, the listener will be notified.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item
        use Libraries.Interface.Events.MouseMovementListener
        Item myItem
        MouseMovementListener listener
        myItem:AddMouseMovementListener(listener)

This action adds a MouseWheelListener to the Item. If the Item ever receives a MouseEvent due to the mouse wheel being scrolled, the listener will be notified.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item
        use Libraries.Interface.Events.MouseWheelListener
        Item myItem
        MouseWheelListener listener
        myItem:AddMouseWheelListener(listener)

Returns an array of all the series sets

This action adds a TouchListener to the Item. If the Item ever receives a TouchEvent, the listener will be notified.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item
        use Libraries.Interface.Events.TouchListener
        Item myItem
        TouchListener listener
        myItem:AddTouchListener(listener)

Gets the default selection color (highlighting) the chart items

This action is used to advance the item forward in time in physics space to synchronize it for time of impact solving. This action is used internally and users should not need to use this action. Attribute Parameter time The amount of seconds to advance the item forward in time

This action applies an angular impulse to this item. The units are in kilogram units squared per second. This modifies the angular velocity of this item. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D item
    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    item:ApplyAngularImpulse(80)

This action applies a force to this item at the passed point. The force is in kilogram units per second per second. The point is the screen coordinates where the point will be applied. If the point is not on the center of the item, then a torque will be introduced causing the item to rotate. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Compute.Vector2
    use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D item
    Vector2 force
    Vector2 point

    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    
    force:Set(300, 350)
    point:Set(100, 100)    // apply the force to the top right corner of the item
    
    item:ApplyForce(force, point)

This action applies a force to this item at the center of the item. The force is in kilogram units per second per second. No torque is introduced to the item when using this action. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Compute.Vector2
    use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D item
    Vector2 force

    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    
    force:Set(300, 350)
    
    item:ApplyForce(force)

This action applies a linear impulse to this item at the passed point. The impulse is in kilogram units per second. This immeadietly modifies the linear velocity of this item. The point is the screen coordinates where the impulse will be applied. If the point is not the center of the item, then the angular velocity of this item will also be modified. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
    use Libraries.Compute.Vector2

    Item2D item
    Vector2 impulse
    Vector2 point

    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)

    impulse:Set(100)
    point:Set(100, 100)     // apply the impulse to the top right corner

    item:ApplyLinearImpulse(impulse, point)

This action applies a torque to this item. The units are kilogram units squared per second per second. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D item
    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    item:ApplyTorque(350)

This action returns whether or not this Item is allowing its children to receive mouse events if the Item is custom drawing. If the Item isn't using custom drawing, this value is irrelevant -- children objects always receive mouse events before the parent if the parent isn't performing custom drawing.

This action is used to indicate that two items have just begun colliding. When two Items collide, the BeginCollision action should be called on both of them, with the other item passed as a parameter to the action. Note that this action does nothing by default, but classes that inherit from Item may override it.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item

        Item collider1
        Item collider2
        collider1:BeginCollision(collider2)
        collider2:BeginCollision(collider1)

Whether or not this Control should automatically be laid out during the next Update loop.

This action gets the position of the center of this item in global (world) coordinates.

This action stops all behaviors this Item is following without finishing them.

This action obtains the Input Table from this control, copies it, assigns it a group name, sets the control to use the new input table, and then adds it to the global input table hash table.

Example Code

use Libraries.Game.Game
        use Libraries.Interface.Controls.TextBox
        use Libraries.Game.InputTable

        class Main is Game
            action Main
                StartGame()
            end

            action CreateGame
                TextBox box
                InputTable copy = box:CopyAndActivateInputTable("New Group")
            end

            action Update(number seconds)
            end
        end

This action opens the chart item if it is open If it has children and is already open it moves to first child.

This action sets the mass, mass moment of inertia, and how the 2D item should move (via linear velocity) to be at the desired location.

This action compares two object hash codes and returns an integer. The result is larger if this hash code is larger than the object passed as a parameter, smaller, or equal. In this case, -1 means smaller, 0 means equal, and 1 means larger. This action was changed in Quorum 7 to return an integer, instead of a CompareResult object, because the previous implementation was causing efficiency issues.

Example Code

Object o
        Object t
        integer result = o:Compare(t) //1 (larger), 0 (equal), or -1 (smaller)

This action computes the distance of the passed point from the collision shape attached to this item. This action is used internally and users should not need to use this action.

This action tests if a point in global x,y coordinates is contained inside this Item2D. The global coordinates are considered to be the x and y coordinates of this Item plus its offsetX and offsetY values.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

        Item2D item
        item:SetPosition(50, 50)
        item:SetWidth(100)
        item:SetHeight(50)
        boolean value = item:Contains(125, 70)

This action converts this chart to a text value that contains information for a scalable vector graphics file. This is useful for saving charts to disk. Each sub-class of chart must implement this action separately.

This action obtains the Input Table from this control, copies it, assigns it a group name, sets the control to use the new input table, and then adds it to the global input table hash table.

Example Code

use Libraries.Game.Game
        use Libraries.Interface.Controls.TextBox
        use Libraries.Game.InputTable

        class Main is Game
            action Main
                StartGame()
            end

            action CreateGame
                TextBox box
                InputTable copy = box:CopyAndActivateInputTable("New Group")
            end

            action Update(number seconds)
            end
        end

This action creates the nodes for this item for the broadphase collision. This action is needed in order to add the item to the collision detection system. This action is used internally and users should not need to use this action.

This action destroys the nodes for this item for the broadphase collision, essentially removing it from the collision detection system. This action is used internally and users should not need to use this action.

This action creates a default Game object for displaying charts and sets this chart as the sole display. It is useful for interacting with charts without creating a complex game setup. The exit flag tells the system, if true, to close the pre-built display right after completing layout, which can be useful for writing to disk.

The exit flag tells the system, if true, to close the pre-built display right after completing layout, which can be useful for writing to disk.

This action is used to free up any additional memory that is being used by this Item for purposes such as graphics. Note that the Item class doesn't have any extra memory that needs to be released with this action, but some classes which inherit from Item, such as Libraries.Game.Graphics.Drawable, do.

This action is used to call Dispose on this Item and on the entire children hierarchy of this Item.

This action is used to call Dispose on the entire children hierarchy of this Item. This will not call Dispose on this Item.

This action will flip the axis min/max and any labels associated. Then the un-used axis will be deactivated so it won't interfere with the accessibility navigation.

The Draw action is used to perform custom drawing on this Item and its children. This is only called during the Game engine's draw phase if this Item has enabled custom drawing via the SetCustomDrawing action. This is an advanced feature, and shouldn't be used by most users. If custom drawing is enabled, this action should be overriden -- if it isn't, the Item will attempt to provide default rendering for itself, its view, and its children, without regard to depth buffering. This action is responsible for instructing the provided Painter on how to draw this item, the view, and its children, and in what order to do so.

This action will remove all items from this item's children hierarchy. Note that this will not empty the hierarchies of the contained Items.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

        Item2D parentItem
        Item2D child1
        Item2D child2
        Item2D grandchild
        parentItem:Add(child1)
        parentItem:Add(child2)
        child1:Add(grandChild)
        parentItem:Empty()

This action will call Empty on the entire children hierarchy of this item, and then empty this item as well.

This action is used to call Empty on all children contained in this item's children hierarchy. This will not empty the children of this item.

This action enables physics for this item. Passing true turns on physics for this item while passing false turns off physics for this item.

Example Code

use Libraries.Game.Graphics.Drawable

    Drawable circle
    circle:LoadFilledCircle(30)
    circle:EnablePhysics(true)

A layout which is used to arrange the children of this object.

This action determines if two objects are equal based on their hash code values.

Example Code

use Libraries.Language.Object
        use Libraries.Language.Types.Text
        Object o
        Text t
        boolean result = o:Equals(t)

This action gets the linear velocity of this item in units per second. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
    use Libraries.Compute.Vector2

    Item2D item
    Vector2 velocity

    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    velocity:Set(100, 0)
    item:SetLinearVelocity(velocity)

    Vector2 currentVelocity = item:GetLinearVelocity()

This action is used to indicate that two items that were previously colliding no longer are. The FinishCollision action should be called on both Items involved, with the other item passed as a parameter to the action. Note that this action does nothing by default, but classes that inherit from Item may override it.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item

        Item collider1
        Item collider2
        collider1:FinishCollision(collider2)
        collider2:FinishCollision(collider1)

This action will flip the axis min/max and any labels associated. Then the un-used axis will be deactivated so it won't interfere with the accessibility navigation.

This action will flip the Item2D across the X-axis. This flip is represented by the internal vertices of the Item2D. For classes that inherit from Item and can draw on the screen, this will flip the drawn image on the screen.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        
        Item2D myItem
        myItem:FlipX()

This action will flip the Item2D across the Y-axis. This flip is represented by the internal vertices of the Item2D. For classes that inherit from Item and can draw on the screen, this will flip the drawn image on the screen.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        
        Item2D myItem
        myItem:FlipY()

This action sets focus on this Item. If the Item is not focusable, it will instead look through the parent hierarchy and set focus on the first focusable ancestor. If no focusable Item can be found, this action will have no effect.

This action is fired if the item received the focus.

Unlike many kinds of user interface controls, there is no universal way of interacting with a chart and, as such, this may be defined by any chart to be custom. As such, charts must be able to take messages suggesting an item in the chart has either lost or gained the focus. Broadly speaking, this is done automatically and while charts need to implement this action, they do not need to call this action directly.

The LayoutProperties that were last used to define the properties of this Control. Used to indicate when graphics should be reloaded due to Layout changes.

This action returns the current accessiblity code for this Item

This action returns the name of the accessiblity code for this Item as Text

This action returns the parent of this Item2D. An Item2D gets a parent when it is added to another Item using the Add action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

        Item2D parentItem
        Item2D child
        parentItem:Add(child)
        Item2D item = child:GetParent()

This action returns a default behavior for this paricular control. Some controls do nothing by default, like a TextBox that responds to different kinds of input. Others, however, have default behaviors, like a Button or a MenuItem. If there is no default behavior, this action returns undefined.

This action gets the inverse inertia of this item (i.e., one divided by the inertia of this item). Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D item
    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    item:SetMass(20)
    number inverseInertia = item:GetInverseInertia()

This action gets this item's angular velocity in radians per second. Physics must be enabled in this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D item
    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    item:SetAngularVelocity(0.1)
    number angularVelocity = item:GetAngularVelocity()

This action overrides the default Update action. If the tree needs to be updated, the tree is regenerated.

This action is used to get the bounding box of the item. A bounding box is an axis-alligned rectangle containing the shape used for broadphase collision. This action is used internally and users should not need to use this action.

This action returns a rectangle that fully encloses the four corners of the Item as it is represented by its internal vertices array. Note that the rectangle produced by this action will be larger than the actual box formed by this Item's vertices if the Item is rotated.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        use Libraries.Game.Shapes.Rectangle

        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetBoundingBox(20, 80, 100, 100)
        Rectangle box = myItem:GetBoundingRectangle()

This action returns the x coordinate of the center of this Item2D.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetWidth(20)
        myItem:SetX(100)
        number x = myItem:GetCenterX()

This action returns the y coordinate of the center of this Item2D.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetHeight(20)
        myItem:SetY(100)
        number y = myItem:GetCenterY()

This action is used by the layout to position the graphical components of the Chart. Layout is handled automatically so users don't need to use this action directly.

This action is used by the layout to position the graphical components of the Chart. Layout is handled automatically so users don't need to use this action directly.

This action gets the children of this item in an array.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D parent
    Item2D child1
    Item2D child2

    parent:Add(child1)
    parent:Add(child2)

    Array<Item2D> children = parent:GetChildren()

This action gets the clipping coordinates of this Item2D. The coordinates are returned via the two provided Vector2 parameters, the first vector storing the x values of the left and right sides of the clipping coordinates and the second vector storing the y values of the bottom and top sides. The returned boolean value indicates if this Item uses these clipping coordinates (i.e. if this Item or one of its parent Items has clipping enabled). If the clipping is valid, the action returns true. Otherwise, it returns false.

This action gets the total force on this item. The units are kilogram units per second per second. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
    use Libraries.Compute.Vector2

    Item2D item
    Vector2 force

    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    force:Set(300, 350)
    item:SetForce(force)
    Vector2 totalForce = item:GetForce()

This action gets this item's angular velocity in radians per second. Physics must be enabled in this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D item
    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    item:SetAngularVelocity(0.1)
    number angularVelocity = item:GetAngularVelocity()

This is an action used internally to retrieve the head of the linked list of collisions with this item. This action is used internally and users should not need to use this action.

This action returns the LayoutProperties that were last used to define the Control, and thus describe its current state. Note that if the Control hasn't been laid out yet, this will return undefined.

This action obtains the default font for this control. This allows individual controls to customize their default font properties on a per control basis. By default, the system asks for the default system font name on a per control basis, then loads that font and returns it. Font loading is shared, so loading many fonts of the same type and size is not particularly expensive and can be done without much concern for memory requirements.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Controls.TextBox
        use Libraries.Game.Graphics.Font

        TextBox box
        text name = box:GetDefaultFont()
        output name

This action defines what the default font is for this control. This allows individual controls to customize their default font properties on a per control basis.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Controls.TextBox

        TextBox box
        text name = box:GetDefaultFontName()
        output name

This action defines what the default font size for this control. This allows individual controls to customize their default font properties on a per control basis.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Controls.TextBox

        TextBox box
        integer size = box:GetDefaultFontSize()
        output size

This action returns the default LayoutProperties used for this Control.

This action applies a linear impulse to this item at the passed point. The impulse is in kilogram units per second. This immeadietly modifies the linear velocity of this item. The point is the screen coordinates where the impulse will be applied. If the point is not the center of the item, then the angular velocity of this item will also be modified. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
    use Libraries.Compute.Vector2

    Item2D item
    Vector2 impulse
    Vector2 point

    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)

    impulse:Set(100)
    point:Set(100, 100)     // apply the impulse to the top right corner

    item:ApplyLinearImpulse(impulse, point)

This action returns the current internal description of the Item.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item

        Item item
        item:SetDescription("Used for demo purposes.")
        output "My item's description is : " + item:GetDescription()

This action returns an Iterator containing all of the FocusListeners that have been added to this Item using the AddFocusListener action.

This action returns the Font being used by this Control. How this Font is used varies between Controls, and in some cases the Control will ignore it entirely (for example, ScrollPanes), but typically this sets the font that's used for the default label on many Controls, such as Buttons. If the Font is undefined, many Controls will omit their default label.

This action returns the base Font size to be used by this Control, if the Control uses a Font.

This action gets the total force on this item. The units are kilogram units per second per second. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
    use Libraries.Compute.Vector2

    Item2D item
    Vector2 force

    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    force:Set(300, 350)
    item:SetForce(force)
    Vector2 totalForce = item:GetForce()

This action applies a force to this item at the center of the item. The force is in kilogram units per second per second. No torque is introduced to the item when using this action. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Compute.Vector2
    use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D item
    Vector2 force

    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    
    force:Set(300, 350)
    
    item:ApplyForce(force)

This action returns the Item's global x coordinate. This is the actual world coordinate that the item exists at after it has been offset by its parent's position. If this Item doesn't have a parent, and the offset hasn't been set manually, this is the same as GetX().

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetOffsetX(100)
        myItem:SetX(30)
        number globalX = myItem:GetGlobalX()

This action returns the Item's global y coordinate. This is the actual world coordinate that the item exists at after it has been offset by its parent's position. If this Item doesn't have a parent, and the offset hasn't been set manually, this is the same as GetY().

Example Code

This action sets the x-component of this item's linear velocity in units per second. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D item

    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    item:SetLinearVelocityX(100)

This action creates the nodes for this item for the broadphase collision. This action is needed in order to add the item to the collision detection system. This action is used internally and users should not need to use this action.

This action is fired if the item lost the focus.

The default LayoutProperties, used by many controls to set their base visual information and provide default values.

Unlike many kinds of user interface controls, there is no universal way of interacting with a chart and, as such, this may be defined by any chart to be custom. As such, charts must be able to take messages suggesting an item in the chart has either lost or gained the focus. Broadly speaking, this is done automatically and while charts need to implement this action, they do not need to call this action directly.

This action will increase the x and y coordinates of this Item by the values stored in the provided Vector2.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        use Libraries.Compute.Vector2

        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetX(50)
        myItem:SetY(80)
        Vector2 vector
        vector:Set(25, -20)
        myItem:Move(vector)

This action will increase the x and y coordinates of this Item by the given amounts.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetX(50)
        myItem:SetY(80)
        myItem:Move(25, -20)

This action will increase the x-coordinate of this Item by the given amount.

Example Code

use [email protected]

        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetZ(5)
        myItem:MoveZ(2)

This action returns whether or not the Control is in need of laying out by its container (or the parent Layer2D, if no container Control exists).

This action indicates whether the system needs its graphics updated.

The FILL layout style will attempt to fill the remaining width or height of the container with this Control. Note that this is only effective if the container's dimensions are already known independently of this element's size -- for example, a FILL layout can't be effectively used if the container's layout style is FIT_CONTENTS.

This action will notify all SelectionListeners which have been added to the Control of the given SelectionEvent.

This action opens the chart item if it has children If it has children and is already open it moves to first child.

This action is used by the layout to position the graphical components of the Chart. Layout is handled automatically so users don't need to use this action directly.

This action is used by the layout to position the graphical components of the Chart. Layout is handled automatically so users don't need to use this action directly.

Checks to see if the Item2D's internal vertices are up to date, and updates them if they are not. This is used primarily internally to ensure that the item's vertices are properly aligned before use, e.g. to project an image on the screen at the coordinates of the vertices. Most users will never need to use this action directly.

This action takes a mouse event and handles it. It will first test to see if the mouse event took place within the bounds of this Item. If so, it will notify any MouseListeners of the event. If the event was not contained within this Item, or if there are no MouseListeners on this Item, the Item will ask its parent Item to process the mouse event, if there is a parent.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        use Libraries.Interface.Events.MouseEvent
        use Libraries.Interface.Events.MouseListener
        Item2D myItem
        MouseListener listener
        myItem:AddMouseListener(listener)
        MouseEvent event
        event:eventType = event:CLICKED_MOUSE
        myItem:ProcessMouseEvent(event)

FIX ME: Needs comments

This action is used to draw this Item on the screen, and then draw all of the Item's children hierarchy on the screen. Note that Items themselves can not be drawn, but some classes that extend the Item class, such as the Libraries.Game.Graphics.Drawable class, can be. To see how they draw, see their documentation.

This action obtains the Input Table from this control, copies it, assigns it a group name, sets the control to use the new input table, and then adds it to the global input table hash table.

Example Code

use Libraries.Game.Game
        use Libraries.Interface.Controls.TextBox
        use Libraries.Game.InputTable

        class Main is Game
            action Main
                StartGame()
            end

            action CreateGame
                TextBox box
                InputTable copy = box:CopyAndActivateInputTable("New Group")
            end

            action Update(number seconds)
            end
        end

This action adds a different Item2D into this one. This makes a few things happen. 1. The added item will get this item as its parent. 2. The added item's x and y coordinates will become relative to this Item. 3. Most actions on this Item will also affect the added Item.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

        Item2D parentItem
        Item2D child
        parentItem:Add(child)

This action adds a different Item2D into this one, storing the added Item2D at a specific index in the internal array.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

        Item2D parentItem
        Item2D child
        parentItem:Add(0, child)

The FIT_CONTENTS layout style will calculate this Control's dimensions as the combined total dimensions of its children elements. Because children elements often need to have some concrete information about the parent's dimensions, it's recommended to only use this in one of the two directions (horizontally or vertically) for the Control. For example, FlowLayouts work well with elements with a predetermined STANDARD horizontal layout style and using FIT_CONTENTS for the vertical layout style.

This action removes a FocusListener from the Item. The listener will no longer receive notification if the Item gets a FocusEvent.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item
        use Libraries.Interface.Events.FocusListener

        MouseListener listener
        myItem:AddMouseListener(listener)
        myItem:RemoveMouseListener(listener)

This action removes a MouseMovementListener from the Item. The listener will no longer receive notification if the Item gets a mouse movement event.

Example Code

        MouseMovementListener listener
        myItem:AddMouseMovementListener(listener)
        myItem:RemoveMouseMovementListener(listener)

This action removes a MouseWheelListener from the Item. The listener will no longer receive notification if the Item gets a mouse wheel event.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item
        use Libraries.Interface.Events.MouseWheelListener

        MouseWheelListener listener
        myItem:AddMouseWheelListener(listener)
        myItem:RemoveMouseWheelListener(listener)

This action removes a TouchListener from the Item. The listener will no longer receive notification if the Item gets a TouchEvent.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item
        use Libraries.Interface.Events.TouchListener
        Item myItem
        TouchListener listener
        myItem:AddTouchListener(listener)
        myItem:RemoveTouchListener(listener)

This action requests that this Control should be laid out by its container (or the Layer2D if there is no containing Control) during the next Update.

This action sets the y-component of this item's linear velocity in units per second. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

    Item2D item

    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    item:SetLinearVelocityY(100)

This action is used to indicate that the Control no longer needs to be laid out. This is called internally by the system as needed, and shouldn't be necessary for most users.

This action sets the mass, mass moment of inertia, and how the 2D item should move (via linear velocity) to be at the desired location.

Sets the default selection color (highlighting) the chart items

Rotates this Item2D by the given number of degrees. This will also rotate all Items in the children hierarchy of this Item.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item

        Item myItem

        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetSize(100, 200)
        myItem:SetScale(1.5)
        myItem:ScaleFromCenter(1.1, 0.9)

This action sets the ChartItem that is currently selected. This call has the same effect as calling GetSelection, then Set(ChartItem) on the selection.

This action selects an item in the Control using first letter navigation, if the Control supports it. If the Control doesn't support first letter navigation, this will do nothing.

This action tells the chart to select a child in its list, if it has one.

This action tells the chart to select the next item in its navigation path.

This action tells the chart to select the parent of the current item.

This action tells the chart to select the previous item in its navigation path.

This action sets whether or not this Item accepts mouse input. If set to true, this will intercept incoming mouse events, triggering any related MouseListeners and InputSets and preventing the mouse event from propagating to other Items on the Layer. The default value is true.

This action changes the accessibility code for this Item. This should be done with care because setting the accessiblity code to the incorrect type can cause accessibility to stop functioning or, in some cases, cause the program to crash.

This action gets the rotational inertia of this item. The inertia is in kilogram units squared.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D item
    item:SetWidth(100)

    Item2D item
    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    item:SetAngularVelocity(0.1)

This action indicates whether the system needs its graphics updated.

This action returns the default LayoutProperties used for this Control.

This action will set the x coordinate, y coordinate, width, and height of the Item2D, respectively.

This action is used by the layout to position the graphical components of the Chart. Layout is handled automatically so users don't need to use this action directly.

The SetChildrenProcessingMouseEvents action is used to set whether or not children items should receive mouse events if this Item is using custom drawing. This affects only custom drawing Items -- if the Item isn't drawing, children objects will always receive the mouse events first. This value is false by default. This is an advanced feature only necessary for complex custom components, and most users will not need to use this.

This action sets the clipping coordinates of the given painter to respect the coordinates of this Item (if it's clipping) as well as any clipping being performed by parent Items. This action is called automatically by the Game engine as necessary, and most users will never need to use this action directly.

The SetClipping action is used to enable or disable clipping. If it is enabled, when the Item and its children are drawn as part of the QueueForDrawing action, any pixels that would be drawn outside of the unrotated dimensions of the Item are not rendered. In other words, the Item will only draw inside the exact rectangle formed by its x, y position and its width and height.

This action sets this item to be collidable. Passing true turns on collision for this item while passing false turns off collision for this item.

Example Code

use Libraries.Game.Graphics.Drawable
    
    Drawable circle
    circle:LoadFilledCircle(30)
    circle:SetCollidable(true)

This action gets the position of the item in physics space from the previous frame. This action is used internally and users should not need to use this action

This action sets the total torque on this item. The units are kilogram units squared per second per second. This action should be used to set the total torque on this item. If we want to apply a torque to this item, we should use the ApplyTorque actions instead. Physics must be enabled on this action before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D item

    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    item:SetTorque(200)

This action sets the total force on this item. The units are kilogram units per second per second. This action should be used to set the total force on this item. If we want to apply a force to this item, we should use the ApplyForce actions instead. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
    use Libraries.Compute.Vector2

    Item2D item
    Vector2 force

    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    force:Set(300, 350)
    item:SetForce(force)

The SetCustomDrawing action is used to indicate that this Item wants to directly manage how itself and its children are drawn. When this is set to true, the Item must be responsible for determining this rendering via the Draw(Painter2D) action -- if this action isn't overridden, the Item and its children won't be drawn. This is an advanced feature only necessary for complex custom components, and most users will not need to use this functionality.

This action applies an angular impulse to this item. The units are in kilogram units squared per second. This modifies the angular velocity of this item. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item

        Item item
        item:SetDescription("Used for demo purposes.")

This action will set the Item2D to be flipped across the X-axis according to the boolean. If the boolean value is false, the Item2D will be set to its unflipped state. If it is true, the Item will be set to its flipped state.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        
        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetFlipX(true)

This action will set the Item2D to be flipped across the Y-axis according to the boolean. If the boolean value is false, the Item2D will be set to its unflipped state. If it is true, the Item will be set to its flipped state.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        
        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetFlipY(true)

The SetFocusable action sets whether or not this Item should be focusable. If the Item is currently focused and made unfocusable, then it will lose focus, and there will be no focused element.

This action sets the Font to be used by this Control. How this Font is used varies between Controls, and in some cases the Control will ignore it entirely (for example, ScrollPanes), but typically this sets the font that's used for the default label on many Controls, such as Buttons. If the Font is undefined, many Controls will omit their default label.

legend:DisplayOnTop() or legend:DisplayOnBottom

This action sets the total force on this item. The units are kilogram units per second per second. This action should be used to set the total force on this item.

This action is used by the layout to position the graphical components of the Chart. Layout is handled automatically so users don't need to use this action directly.

This action tells the system to update all of its graphics because its structure has changed. This might be true if the charts are being used to update a live data source.

This action sets the next focus item. When this Item has the focus and the user requests the focus to advance (e.g. by pressing the tab key), the focus will move to the next focus item, if it is defined.

This action returns all of the broadphase nodes attached to this item in an array. This action is used internally and users should not need to use this action.

This action will set X, Y, and Z offsets of the item, respectively.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetOffset(100, 75, 2)

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetOffset(100, 75)

This action sets the X offset of the Item. The offset tells the Item where to relate its X position to. In other words, the X offset is where an X coordinate of 0 is for this Item. This is automatically set when using an action to add an Item to another Item.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetOffsetX(100)

This action sets the Y offset of the item. The offset tells the Item where to relate its Y position to. In other words, the Y offset is where a Y coordinate of 0 is for this item. This is automatically set when using an action to add an Item to another Item.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetOffsetY(75)

This action sets the Z offset of the item. The offset tells the Item where to relate its Z position to. In other words, the Z offset is where a Z coordinate of 0 is for this item. This is automatically set when using an action to add an Item to another Item.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetOffsetZ(75)

This action will set the origin of the Item to be at the given location in the Item. This is used when projecting the Item's vertices onto the screen, i.e. when determining where to draw a picture on the screen.

Example Code

        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetOrigin(20, 20)

This action will set the origin of the Item to be at the current center of the Item's width and height bounds.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetSize(50, 80)
        myItem:SetOriginCenter()

These actions are used to offset the start of the tick placement if the chart has added white space on either side of the chart area.

This action sets a reference to the parent item. It is called automatically when an Item2D is added as a child to another Item2D. Most users will not need to use this action directly.

This action returns the target x position of the Control in pixels. Note that this may not be used by some layouts (such as FlowLayout).

This action returns the target y position of the Control in pixels. Note that this may not be used by some layouts (such as FlowLayout).

This action sets the x position of the Control relative to the size of its container, if the container's Layout supports it.

This action sets the y position of the Control relative to the size of its container, if the container's Layout supports it.

This action is used to get the bounding box of the item. A bounding box is an axis-alligned rectangle containing the shape used for broadphase collision. This action is used internally and users should not need to use this action.

This action returns the x position of the Control relative to the size of its container, if the container's Layout supports it.

This action returns the y position of the Control relative to the size of its container, if the container's Layout supports it.

This action sets the x position of the Control in pixels, if the container's Layout supports it. If the Control has also been set to use a percentage of the container's width to set the x position, then the two values will be added together.

This action sets the y position of the Control in pixels, if the container's Layout supports it. If the Control has also been set to use a percentage of the container's height to set the y position, then the two values will be added together.

The SetPopupMenu action attaches a PopupMenu to this Control, which can be opened by interacting with it (most commonly by right-clicking on the Control).

This action will set both the X coordinate and the Y coordinate of the Item, in that order.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item
        Item myItem
        myItem:SetPosition(30, 70)

This action will set both the X and Y coordinates of this Item2D, and will additionally set the Z value of this Item2D.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D
        Item2D myItem
        myItem:SetPosition(30, 70, 3)

This action sets the previous focus item. When this Item has the focus and the user requests the focus to move backwards (e.g. by pressing shift & tab), the focus will move to the previous focus item, if it is defined.

This action determines whether this item is collidable.

Example Code

use Libraries.Game.Graphics.Drawable
    
    Drawable circle
    circle:LoadFilledCircle(30)
    circle:SetCollidable(true)
    boolean result = circle:IsCollidable

This action returns the mass of the item in kilograms. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action. If the item is non-responsive or unmovable, the mass is zero.

Example Code

use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D item
    item:SetWidth(100)
    item:SetHeight(100)
    item:EnablePhysics(true)
    item:SetMass(20)
    number mass = item:GetMass()

This action applies a force to this item at the passed point. The force is in kilogram units per second per second. The point is the screen coordinates where the point will be applied. If the point is not on the center of the item, then a torque will be introduced causing the item to rotate. Physics must be enabled on this item before using this action.

Example Code

use Libraries.Compute.Vector2
    use Libraries.Interface.Item2D

    Item2D item
    Vector2 force
    Vector2 point

    item:SetWidth(100)

The GetVerticalLayoutMode is used to determine how the height of a Control is calculated. It should be one of the following constants: STANDARD, which will calculate the height as a set number of pixels plus a percentage of the container's height. FILL, which will make the height fill the remaining height of the container. FIT_CONTENTS, which will calculate the height to fit the children contents. FIT_FONT, which will fit the height of the Control to the line height of the Font set in this LayoutProperties.

The IsClipping action returns true if pixel clipping is enabled, or false if it is disabled. If it is enabled, when the Item and its children are drawn as part of the QueueForDrawing action, any pixels that would be drawn outside of the unrotated dimensions of the Item are not rendered. In other words, the Item will only draw inside the exact rectangle formed by its x, y position and its width and height.

This action will set the width of the Item2D.

Example Code
