Detailed Description

A component with a set of buttons at the top for changing between pages of preferences.

This is just a handy way of writing a Mac-style preferences panel where you have a row of buttons along the top for the different preference categories, each button having an icon above its name. Clicking these will show an appropriate prefs page below it.

You can either put one of these inside your own component, or just use the showInDialogBox() method to show it in a window and run it modally.

To use it, just add a set of named pages with the addSettingsPage() method, and implement the createComponentForPage() method to create suitable components for each of these pages.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ FocusChangeType

Enumeration used by the focusChanged() and focusLost() methods.

Enumerator
focusChangedByMouseClick 

Means that the user clicked the mouse to change focus.

focusChangedByTabKey 

Means that the user pressed the tab key to move the focus.

focusChangedDirectly 

Means that the focus was changed by a call to grabKeyboardFocus().

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ PreferencesPanel()

juce::PreferencesPanel::PreferencesPanel ( )

Creates an empty panel.

Use addSettingsPage() to add some pages to it in your constructor.

◆ ~PreferencesPanel()

juce::PreferencesPanel::~PreferencesPanel ( )
override

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

◆ addAndMakeVisible() [1/2]

void juce::Component::addAndMakeVisible ( Component child,
int  zOrder = -1 
)
inherited

Adds a child component to this one, and also makes the child visible if it isn't already.

This is the same as calling setVisible (true) on the child and then addChildComponent(). See addChildComponent() for more details.

Parameters
childthe new component to add. If the component passed-in is already the child of another component, it'll first be removed from it current parent.
zOrderThe index in the child-list at which this component should be inserted. A value of -1 will insert it in front of the others, 0 is the back.

Referenced by juce::StandaloneFilterWindow::StandaloneFilterWindow().

◆ addAndMakeVisible() [2/2]

void juce::Component::addAndMakeVisible ( Component child,
int  zOrder = -1 
)
inherited

Adds a child component to this one, and also makes the child visible if it isn't already.

This is the same as calling setVisible (true) on the child and then addChildComponent(). See addChildComponent() for more details.

Parameters
childthe new component to add. If the component passed-in is already the child of another component, it'll first be removed from it current parent.
zOrderThe index in the child-list at which this component should be inserted. A value of -1 will insert it in front of the others, 0 is the back.

◆ addChildAndSetID()

void juce::Component::addChildAndSetID ( Component child,
const String componentID 
)
inherited

Adds a child component to this one, makes it visible, and sets its component ID.

See also
addAndMakeVisible, addChildComponent

◆ addChildComponent() [1/2]

void juce::Component::addChildComponent ( Component child,
int  zOrder = -1 
)
inherited

Adds a child component to this one.

Adding a child component does not mean that the component will own or delete the child - it's your responsibility to delete the component. Note that it's safe to delete a component without first removing it from its parent - doing so will automatically remove it and send out the appropriate notifications before the deletion completes.

If the child is already a child of this component, then no action will be taken, and its z-order will be left unchanged.

Parameters
childthe new component to add. If the component passed-in is already the child of another component, it'll first be removed from it current parent.
zOrderThe index in the child-list at which this component should be inserted. A value of -1 will insert it in front of the others, 0 is the back.

◆ addChildComponent() [2/2]

void juce::Component::addChildComponent ( Component child,
int  zOrder = -1 
)
inherited

Adds a child component to this one.

Adding a child component does not mean that the component will own or delete the child - it's your responsibility to delete the component. Note that it's safe to delete a component without first removing it from its parent - doing so will automatically remove it and send out the appropriate notifications before the deletion completes.

If the child is already a child of this component, then no action will be taken, and its z-order will be left unchanged.

Parameters
childthe new component to add. If the component passed-in is already the child of another component, it'll first be removed from it current parent.
zOrderThe index in the child-list at which this component should be inserted. A value of -1 will insert it in front of the others, 0 is the back.

◆ addComponentListener()

void juce::Component::addComponentListener ( ComponentListener newListener)
inherited

Adds a listener to be told about changes to the component hierarchy or position.

Component listeners get called when this component's size, position or children change - see the ComponentListener class for more details.

Parameters
newListenerthe listener to register - if this is already registered, it will be ignored.

ComponentListener, removeComponentListener

◆ addKeyListener()

void juce::Component::addKeyListener ( KeyListener newListener)
inherited

Adds a listener that wants to hear about keypresses that this component receives.

The listeners that are registered with a component are called by its keyPressed() or keyStateChanged() methods (assuming these haven't been overridden to do something else).

If you add an object as a key listener, be careful to remove it when the object is deleted, or the component will be left with a dangling pointer.

See also
keyPressed, keyStateChanged, removeKeyListener

◆ addMouseListener()

void juce::Component::addMouseListener ( MouseListener newListener,
bool  wantsEventsForAllNestedChildComponents 
)
inherited

Registers a listener to be told when mouse events occur in this component.

If you need to get informed about mouse events in a component but can't or don't want to override its methods, you can attach any number of listeners to the component, and these will get told about the events in addition to the component's own callbacks being called.

Note that a MouseListener can also be attached to more than one component.

Parameters
newListenerthe listener to register
wantsEventsForAllNestedChildComponentsif true, the listener will receive callbacks for events that happen to any child component within this component, including deeply-nested child components. If false, it will only be told about events that this component handles.

MouseListener, removeMouseListener

◆ addSettingsPage() [1/2]

void juce::PreferencesPanel::addSettingsPage ( const String pageTitle,
const Drawable normalIcon,
const Drawable overIcon,
const Drawable downIcon 
)

Creates a page using a set of drawables to define the page's icon.

Note that the other version of this method is much easier if you're using an image instead of a custom drawable.

Parameters
pageTitlethe name of this preferences page - you'll need to make sure your createComponentForPage() method creates a suitable component when it is passed this name
normalIconthe drawable to display in the page's button normally
overIconthe drawable to display in the page's button when the mouse is over
downIconthe drawable to display in the page's button when the button is down
See also
DrawableButton

◆ addSettingsPage() [2/2]

void juce::PreferencesPanel::addSettingsPage ( const String pageTitle,
const void *  imageData,
int  imageDataSize 
)

Creates a page using a set of drawables to define the page's icon.

The other version of this method gives you more control over the icon, but this one is much easier if you're just loading it from a file.

Parameters
pageTitlethe name of this preferences page - you'll need to make sure your createComponentForPage() method creates a suitable component when it is passed this name
imageDataa block of data containing an image file, e.g. a jpeg, png or gif. For this to look good, you'll probably want to use a nice transparent png file.
imageDataSizethe size of the image data, in bytes

◆ addToDesktop()

virtual void juce::Component::addToDesktop ( int  windowStyleFlags,
void *  nativeWindowToAttachTo = nullptr 
)
virtualinherited

Makes this component appear as a window on the desktop.

Note that before calling this, you should make sure that the component's opacity is set correctly using setOpaque(). If the component is non-opaque, the windowing system will try to create a special transparent window for it, which will generally take a lot more CPU to operate (and might not even be possible on some platforms).

If the component is inside a parent component at the time this method is called, it will first be removed from that parent. Likewise if a component is on the desktop and is subsequently added to another component, it'll be removed from the desktop.

Parameters
windowStyleFlagsa combination of the flags specified in the ComponentPeer::StyleFlags enum, which define the window's characteristics.
nativeWindowToAttachTothis allows an OS object to be passed-in as the window in which the juce component should place itself. On Windows, this would be a HWND, a HIViewRef on the Mac. Not necessarily supported on all platforms, and best left as 0 unless you know what you're doing.

Reimplemented in juce::TopLevelWindow.

◆ alphaChanged()

virtual void juce::Component::alphaChanged ( )
virtualinherited

Called when setAlpha() is used to change the alpha value of this component.

If you override this, you should also invoke the base class's implementation during your overridden function, as it performs some repainting behaviour.

Reimplemented in juce::NSViewComponent.

◆ beginDragAutoRepeat()

static void juce::Component::beginDragAutoRepeat ( int  millisecondsBetweenCallbacks)
staticinherited

Ensures that a non-stop stream of mouse-drag events will be sent during the current mouse-drag operation.

This allows you to make sure that mouseDrag() events are sent continuously, even when the mouse isn't moving. This can be useful for things like auto-scrolling components when the mouse is near an edge.

Call this method during a mouseDown() or mouseDrag() callback, specifying the minimum interval between consecutive mouse drag callbacks. The callbacks will continue until the mouse is released, and then the interval will be reset, so you need to make sure it's called every time you begin a drag event. Passing an interval of 0 or less will cancel the auto-repeat.

See also
mouseDrag, Desktop::beginDragAutoRepeat

◆ broughtToFront()

virtual void juce::Component::broughtToFront ( )
virtualinherited

Called when this component has been moved to the front of its siblings.

The component may have been brought to the front by the toFront() method, or by the operating system if it's a top-level window.

See also
toFront

Reimplemented in juce::XEmbedComponent, and juce::MultiDocumentPanelWindow.

◆ canModalEventBeSentToComponent()

virtual bool juce::Component::canModalEventBeSentToComponent ( const Component targetComponent)
virtualinherited

When a component is modal, this callback allows it to choose which other components can still receive events.

When a modal component is active and the user clicks on a non-modal component, this method is called on the modal component, and if it returns true, the event is allowed to reach its target. If it returns false, the event is blocked and the inputAttemptWhenModal() callback is made.

It called by the isCurrentlyBlockedByAnotherModalComponent() method. The default implementation just returns false in all cases.

◆ centreWithSize()

void juce::Component::centreWithSize ( int  width,
int  height 
)
inherited

Changes the component's size and centres it within its parent.

After changing the size, the component will be moved so that it's centred within its parent. If the component is on the desktop (or has no parent component), then it'll be centred within the main monitor area.

◆ childBoundsChanged()

virtual void juce::Component::childBoundsChanged ( Component child)
virtualinherited

Called when one of this component's children is moved or resized.

If the parent wants to know about changes to its immediate children (not to children of its children), this is the method to override.

See also
moved, resized, parentSizeChanged

Reimplemented in juce::ResizableWindow, juce::CallOutBox, juce::TabBarButton, and juce::DrawableComposite.

◆ childrenChanged()

virtual void juce::Component::childrenChanged ( )
virtualinherited

Subclasses can use this callback to be told when children are added or removed, or when their z-order changes.

See also
parentHierarchyChanged, ComponentListener::componentChildrenChanged

Reimplemented in juce::DrawableComposite.

◆ clickedPage()

void juce::PreferencesPanel::clickedPage ( )
private

◆ colourChanged()

virtual void juce::Component::colourChanged ( )
virtualinherited

◆ contains()

bool juce::Component::contains ( Point< int localPoint)
inherited

Returns true if a given point lies within this component or one of its children.

Never override this method! Use hitTest to create custom hit regions.

Parameters
localPointthe coordinate to test, relative to this component's top-left.
Returns
true if the point is within the component's hit-test area, but only if that part of the component isn't clipped by its parent component. Note that this won't take into account any overlapping sibling components which might be in the way - for that, see reallyContains()
See also
hitTest, reallyContains, getComponentAt

◆ copyAllExplicitColoursTo()

void juce::Component::copyAllExplicitColoursTo ( Component target) const
inherited

This looks for any colours that have been specified for this component, and copies them to the specified target component.

◆ createComponentForPage()

virtual Component* juce::PreferencesPanel::createComponentForPage ( const String pageName)
pure virtual

Subclasses must override this to return a component for each preferences page.

The subclass should return a pointer to a new component representing the named page, which the panel will then display.

The panel will delete the component later when the user goes to another page or deletes the panel.

◆ createComponentSnapshot()

Image juce::Component::createComponentSnapshot ( Rectangle< int areaToGrab,
bool  clipImageToComponentBounds = true,
float  scaleFactor = 1.0f 
)
inherited

Generates a snapshot of part of this component.

This will return a new Image, the size of the rectangle specified, containing a snapshot of the specified area of the component and all its children.

The image may or may not have an alpha-channel, depending on whether the image is opaque or not.

If the clipImageToComponentBounds parameter is true and the area is greater than the size of the component, it'll be clipped. If clipImageToComponentBounds is false then parts of the component beyond its bounds can be drawn.

paintEntireComponent

◆ createFocusTraverser()

virtual KeyboardFocusTraverser* juce::Component::createFocusTraverser ( )
virtualinherited

Creates a KeyboardFocusTraverser object to use to determine the logic by which focus should be passed from this component.

The default implementation of this method will return a default KeyboardFocusTraverser if this component is a focus container (as determined by the setFocusContainer() method). If the component isn't a focus container, then it will recursively ask its parents for a KeyboardFocusTraverser.

If you override this to return a custom KeyboardFocusTraverser, then this component and all its sub-components will use the new object to make their focusing decisions.

The method should return a new object, which the caller is required to delete when no longer needed.

Reimplemented in juce::Label, and juce::FilenameComponent.

◆ deleteAllChildren()

void juce::Component::deleteAllChildren ( )
inherited

Removes and deletes all of this component's children.

My advice is to avoid this method! It's an old function that is only kept here for backwards-compatibility with legacy code, and should be viewed with extreme suspicion by anyone attempting to write modern C++. In almost all cases, it's much smarter to manage the lifetimes of your child components via modern RAII techniques such as simply making them member variables, or using std::unique_ptr, OwnedArray, etc to manage their lifetimes appropriately.

See also
removeAllChildren

◆ enablementChanged()

virtual void juce::Component::enablementChanged ( )
virtualinherited

Callback to indicate that this component has been enabled or disabled.

This can be triggered by one of the component's parent components being enabled or disabled, as well as changes to the component itself.

The default implementation of this method does nothing; your class may wish to repaint itself or something when this happens.

See also
setEnabled, isEnabled

Reimplemented in juce::Slider, juce::TreeView, juce::TextEditor, juce::Button, juce::ComboBox, juce::Label, juce::DrawableButton, juce::PropertyComponent, juce::GroupComponent, and juce::ToolbarButton.

◆ enterModalState()

void juce::Component::enterModalState ( bool  takeKeyboardFocus = true,
ModalComponentManager::Callback callback = nullptr,
bool  deleteWhenDismissed = false 
)
inherited

Puts the component into a modal state.

This makes the component modal, so that messages are blocked from reaching any components other than this one and its children, but unlike runModalLoop(), this method returns immediately.

If takeKeyboardFocus is true, the component will use grabKeyboardFocus() to get the focus, which is usually what you'll want it to do. If not, it will leave the focus unchanged.

The callback is an optional object which will receive a callback when the modal component loses its modal status, either by being hidden or when exitModalState() is called. If you pass an object in here, the system will take care of deleting it later, after making the callback

If deleteWhenDismissed is true, then when it is dismissed, the component will be deleted and then the callback will be called. (This will safely handle the situation where the component is deleted before its exitModalState() method is called).

See also
exitModalState, runModalLoop, ModalComponentManager::attachCallback

◆ exitModalState()

void juce::Component::exitModalState ( int  returnValue)
inherited

Ends a component's modal state.

If this component is currently modal, this will turn off its modalness, and return a value to the runModalLoop() method that might have be running its modal loop.

See also
runModalLoop, enterModalState, isCurrentlyModal

◆ findChildWithID()

Component* juce::Component::findChildWithID ( StringRef  componentID) const
noexceptinherited

Looks for a child component with the specified ID.

See also
setComponentID, getComponentID

◆ findColour()

Colour juce::Component::findColour ( int  colourID,
bool  inheritFromParent = false 
) const
inherited

Looks for a colour that has been registered with the given colour ID number.

If a colour has been set for this ID number using setColour(), then it is returned. If none has been set, the method will try calling the component's LookAndFeel class's findColour() method. If none has been registered with the look-and-feel either, it will just return black.

The colour IDs for various purposes are stored as enums in the components that they are relevant to - for an example, see Slider::ColourIds, Label::ColourIds, TextEditor::ColourIds, TreeView::ColourIds, etc.

See also
setColour, isColourSpecified, colourChanged, LookAndFeel::findColour, LookAndFeel::setColour

◆ findParentComponentOfClass()

template<class TargetClass >
TargetClass* juce::Component::findParentComponentOfClass ( ) const
inlineinherited

Searches the parent components for a component of a specified class.

For example findParentComponentOfClass <MyComp>() would return the first parent component that can be dynamically cast to a MyComp, or will return nullptr if none of the parents are suitable.

◆ focusGained()

virtual void juce::Component::focusGained ( FocusChangeType  cause)
virtualinherited

◆ focusLost()

virtual void juce::Component::focusLost ( FocusChangeType  cause)
virtualinherited

◆ focusOfChildComponentChanged()

virtual void juce::Component::focusOfChildComponentChanged ( FocusChangeType  cause)
virtualinherited

Called to indicate a change in whether or not this component is the parent of the currently-focused component.

Essentially this is called when the return value of a call to hasKeyboardFocus (true) has changed. It happens when focus moves from one of this component's children (at any depth) to a component that isn't contained in this one, (or vice-versa). Note that this method does NOT get called to when focus simply moves from one of its child components to another.

See also
focusGained, setWantsKeyboardFocus, getCurrentlyFocusedComponent, hasKeyboardFocus

Reimplemented in juce::Slider, and juce::TopLevelWindow.

◆ getAlpha()

float juce::Component::getAlpha ( ) const
noexceptinherited

Returns the component's current transparancy level.

See setAlpha() for more details.

◆ getBottom()

int juce::Component::getBottom ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the y coordinate of the bottom edge of this component.

This is a distance in pixels from the top edge of the component's parent.

Note that if you've used setTransform() to apply a transform, then the component's bounds will no longer be a direct reflection of the position at which it appears within its parent, as the transform will be applied to its bounding box.

◆ getBounds()

Rectangle<int> juce::Component::getBounds ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns this component's bounding box.

The rectangle returned is relative to the top-left of the component's parent.

Note that if you've used setTransform() to apply a transform, then the component's bounds will no longer be a direct reflection of the position at which it appears within its parent, as the transform will be applied to its bounding box.

◆ getBoundsInParent()

Rectangle<int> juce::Component::getBoundsInParent ( ) const
noexceptinherited

Returns the area of this component's parent which this component covers.

The returned area is relative to the parent's coordinate space. If the component has an affine transform specified, then the resulting area will be the smallest rectangle that fully covers the component's transformed bounding box. If this component has no parent, the return value will simply be the same as getBounds().

◆ getButtonSize()

int juce::PreferencesPanel::getButtonSize ( ) const
noexcept

Returns the size of the buttons shown along the top.

◆ getCachedComponentImage()

CachedComponentImage* juce::Component::getCachedComponentImage ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

See also
setCachedComponentImage

◆ getChildComponent()

Component* juce::Component::getChildComponent ( int  index) const
noexceptinherited

Returns one of this component's child components, by it index.

The component with index 0 is at the back of the z-order, the one at the front will have index (getNumChildComponents() - 1).

If the index is out-of-range, this will return a null pointer.

See also
getChildren, getNumChildComponents, getIndexOfChildComponent

◆ getChildren()

const Array<Component*>& juce::Component::getChildren ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Provides access to the underlying array of child components.

The most likely reason you may want to use this is for iteration in a range-based for loop.

◆ getComponentAt() [1/2]

Component* juce::Component::getComponentAt ( int  x,
int  y 
)
inherited

Returns the component at a certain point within this one.

Parameters
xthe x coordinate to test, relative to this component's left edge.
ythe y coordinate to test, relative to this component's top edge.
Returns
the component that is at this position - which may be 0, this component, or one of its children. Note that overlapping siblings that might actually be in the way are not taken into account by this method - to account for these, instead call getComponentAt on the top-level parent of this component.
See also
hitTest, contains, reallyContains

◆ getComponentAt() [2/2]

Component* juce::Component::getComponentAt ( Point< int position)
inherited

Returns the component at a certain point within this one.

Parameters
positionthe coordinate to test, relative to this component's top-left.
Returns
the component that is at this position - which may be 0, this component, or one of its children. Note that overlapping siblings that might actually be in the way are not taken into account by this method - to account for these, instead call getComponentAt on the top-level parent of this component.

◆ getComponentEffect()

ImageEffectFilter* juce::Component::getComponentEffect ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

See also
setComponentID, findChildWithID

◆ getCurrentlyFocusedComponent()

static Component* juce::Component::getCurrentlyFocusedComponent ( )
staticnoexceptinherited

Returns the component that currently has the keyboard focus.

Returns
the focused component, or null if nothing is focused.

◆ getCurrentlyModalComponent()

static Component* juce::Component::getCurrentlyModalComponent ( int  index = 0)
staticnoexceptinherited

Returns one of the components that are currently modal.

The index specifies which of the possible modal components to return. The order of the components in this list is the reverse of the order in which they became modal - so the component at index 0 is always the active component, and the others are progressively earlier ones that are themselves now blocked by later ones.

Returns
the modal component, or null if no components are modal (or if the index is out of range)

getNumCurrentlyModalComponents, runModalLoop, isCurrentlyModal

◆ getDesktopScaleFactor()

virtual float juce::Component::getDesktopScaleFactor ( ) const
virtualinherited

Returns the default scale factor to use for this component when it is placed on the desktop.

The default implementation of this method just returns the value from Desktop::getGlobalScaleFactor(), but it can be overridden if a particular component has different requirements. The method only used if this component is added to the desktop - it has no effect for child components.

Referenced by juce::CarbonViewWrapperComponent::setEmbeddedWindowToOurSize().

◆ getExplicitFocusOrder()

int juce::Component::getExplicitFocusOrder ( ) const
inherited

Returns the focus order of this component, if one has been specified.

By default components don't have a focus order - in that case, this will return 0. Lower numbers indicate that the component will be earlier in the focus traversal order.

To change the order, call setExplicitFocusOrder().

The focus order may be used by the KeyboardFocusTraverser class as part of its algorithm for deciding the order in which components should be traversed. See the KeyboardFocusTraverser class for more details on this.

moveKeyboardFocusToSibling, createFocusTraverser, KeyboardFocusTraverser

◆ getHeight()

int juce::Component::getHeight ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

◆ getIndexOfChildComponent()

int juce::Component::getIndexOfChildComponent ( const Component child) const
noexceptinherited

Returns the index of this component in the list of child components.

A value of 0 means it is first in the list (i.e. behind all other components). Higher values are further towards the front.

Returns -1 if the component passed-in is not a child of this component.

◆ getInterceptsMouseClicks()

void juce::Component::getInterceptsMouseClicks ( bool allowsClicksOnThisComponent,
bool allowsClicksOnChildComponents 
) const
noexceptinherited

Retrieves the current state of the mouse-click interception flags.

On return, the two parameters are set to the state used in the last call to setInterceptsMouseClicks().

See also
setInterceptsMouseClicks

◆ getLocalArea()

Rectangle<int> juce::Component::getLocalArea ( const Component sourceComponent,
Rectangle< int areaRelativeToSourceComponent 
) const
inherited

Converts a rectangle to be relative to this component's coordinate space.

This takes a rectangle that is relative to a different component, and returns its position relative to this component. If the sourceComponent parameter is null, the source rectangle is assumed to be a screen coordinate.

If you've used setTransform() to apply one or more transforms to components, then the source rectangle may not actually be rectanglular when converted to the target space, so in that situation this will return the smallest rectangle that fully contains the transformed area.

Referenced by juce::OpenGLContext::NativeContext::NativeContext().

◆ getLocalBounds()

Rectangle<int> juce::Component::getLocalBounds ( ) const
noexceptinherited

Returns the component's bounds, relative to its own origin.

This is like getBounds(), but returns the rectangle in local coordinates, In practice, it'll return a rectangle with position (0, 0), and the same size as this component.

Referenced by juce::OpenGLContext::NativeContext::NativeContext().

◆ getLocalPoint() [1/2]

Point<int> juce::Component::getLocalPoint ( const Component sourceComponent,
Point< int pointRelativeToSourceComponent 
) const
inherited

Converts a point to be relative to this component's coordinate space.

This takes a point relative to a different component, and returns its position relative to this component. If the sourceComponent parameter is null, the source point is assumed to be a global screen coordinate.

◆ getLocalPoint() [2/2]

Point<float> juce::Component::getLocalPoint ( const Component sourceComponent,
Point< float pointRelativeToSourceComponent 
) const
inherited

Converts a point to be relative to this component's coordinate space.

This takes a point relative to a different component, and returns its position relative to this component. If the sourceComponent parameter is null, the source point is assumed to be a global screen coordinate.

◆ getLookAndFeel()

LookAndFeel& juce::Component::getLookAndFeel ( ) const
noexceptinherited

Finds the appropriate look-and-feel to use for this component.

If the component hasn't had a look-and-feel explicitly set, this will return the parent's look-and-feel, or just the default one if there's no parent.

See also
setLookAndFeel, lookAndFeelChanged

◆ getMouseClickGrabsKeyboardFocus()

bool juce::Component::getMouseClickGrabsKeyboardFocus ( ) const

Referenced by juce::CarbonViewWrapperComponent::setOurSizeToEmbeddedViewSize().

◆ getParentHeight()

int juce::Component::getParentHeight ( ) const
noexceptinherited

Returns the height of the component's parent.

Each component has a NamedValueSet object which you can use to attach arbitrary items of data to it.

◆ getRight()

int juce::Component::getRight ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the x coordinate of the component's right-hand edge.

This is a distance in pixels from the left edge of the component's parent.

Note that if you've used setTransform() to apply a transform, then the component's bounds will no longer be a direct reflection of the position at which it appears within its parent, as the transform will be applied to its bounding box.

int juce::Component::getWidth ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

◆ getWindowHandle()

void* juce::Component::getWindowHandle ( ) const
inherited

Returns the underlying native window handle for this component.

This is platform-dependent and strictly for power-users only!

Referenced by juce::CarbonViewWrapperComponent::getOwnerWindow().

◆ getX()

int juce::Component::getX ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the x coordinate of the component's left edge.

This is a distance in pixels from the left edge of the component's parent.

Note that if you've used setTransform() to apply a transform, then the component's bounds will no longer be a direct reflection of the position at which it appears within its parent, as the transform will be applied to its bounding box.

◆ getY()

int juce::Component::getY ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Returns the y coordinate of the top of this component.

This is a distance in pixels from the top edge of the component's parent.

Note that if you've used setTransform() to apply a transform, then the component's bounds will no longer be a direct reflection of the position at which it appears within its parent, as the transform will be applied to its bounding box.

◆ grabKeyboardFocus()

void juce::Component::grabKeyboardFocus ( )
inherited

Tries to give keyboard focus to this component.

When the user clicks on a component or its grabKeyboardFocus() method is called, the following procedure is used to work out which component should get it:

  • if the component that was clicked on actually wants focus (as indicated by calling getWantsKeyboardFocus), it gets it.
  • if the component itself doesn't want focus, it will try to pass it on to whichever of its children is the default component, as determined by KeyboardFocusTraverser::getDefaultComponent()
  • if none of its children want focus at all, it will pass it up to its parent instead, unless it's a top-level component without a parent, in which case it just takes the focus itself.

Important note! It's obviously not possible for a component to be focused unless it's actually visible, on-screen, and inside a window that is also visible. So there's no point trying to call this in the component's own constructor or before all of its parent hierarchy has been fully instantiated.

◆ handleCommandMessage()

virtual void juce::Component::handleCommandMessage ( int  commandId)
virtualinherited

Called to handle a command that was sent by postCommandMessage().

This is called by the message thread when a command message arrives, and the component can override this method to process it in any way it needs to.

See also
postCommandMessage

Reimplemented in juce::TextEditor, juce::Button, juce::CallOutBox, juce::OpenGLContext::NativeContext::DummyComponent, juce::BurgerMenuComponent, juce::MenuBarComponent, and juce::OpenGLContext::NativeContext::DummyComponent.

◆ hasKeyboardFocus()

bool juce::Component::hasKeyboardFocus ( bool  trueIfChildIsFocused) const
inherited

Returns true if this component currently has the keyboard focus.

Parameters
trueIfChildIsFocusedif this is true, then the method returns true if either this component or any of its children (recursively) have the focus. If false, the method only returns true if this component has the focus.
See also
grabKeyboardFocus, setWantsKeyboardFocus, getCurrentlyFocusedComponent, focusGained, focusLost

◆ hitTest()

virtual bool juce::Component::hitTest ( int  x,
int  y 
)
virtualinherited

Tests whether a given point is inside the component.

Overriding this method allows you to create components which only intercept mouse-clicks within a user-defined area.

This is called to find out whether a particular x, y coordinate is considered to be inside the component or not, and is used by methods such as contains() and getComponentAt() to work out which component the mouse is clicked on.

Components with custom shapes will probably want to override it to perform some more complex hit-testing.

The default implementation of this method returns either true or false, depending on the value that was set by calling setInterceptsMouseClicks() (true is the default return value).

Note that the hit-test region is not related to the opacity with which areas of a component are painted.

Applications should never call hitTest() directly - instead use the contains() method, because this will also test for occlusion by the component's parent.

Note that for components on the desktop, this method will be ignored, because it's not always possible to implement this behaviour on all platforms.

Parameters
xthe x coordinate to test, relative to the left hand edge of this component. This value is guaranteed to be greater than or equal to zero, and less than the component's width
ythe y coordinate to test, relative to the top edge of this component. This value is guaranteed to be greater than or equal to zero, and less than the component's height
Returns
true if the click is considered to be inside the component

Reimplemented in juce::LassoComponent< SelectableItemType >, juce::ResizableBorderComponent, juce::CallOutBox, juce::ImageButton, juce::TabBarButton, juce::DrawableShape, juce::DrawableImage, juce::ResizableCornerComponent, and juce::JUCESplashScreen.

◆ inputAttemptWhenModal()

virtual void juce::Component::inputAttemptWhenModal ( )
virtualinherited

Called when the user tries to click on a component that is blocked by another modal component.

When a component is modal and the user clicks on one of the other components, the modal component will receive this callback.

The default implementation of this method will play a beep, and bring the currently modal component to the front, but it can be overridden to do other tasks.

See also
isCurrentlyBlockedByAnotherModalComponent, canModalEventBeSentToComponent

Reimplemented in juce::Label, and juce::CallOutBox.

◆ isAlwaysOnTop()

bool juce::Component::isAlwaysOnTop ( ) const
noexceptinherited

Returns true if this component is set to always stay in front of its siblings.

See also
setAlwaysOnTop

◆ isBroughtToFrontOnMouseClick()

bool juce::Component::isBroughtToFrontOnMouseClick ( ) const
noexceptinherited

Indicates whether the component should be brought to the front when clicked-on.

See also
setBroughtToFrontOnMouseClick

◆ isColourSpecified()

bool juce::Component::isColourSpecified ( int  colourID) const
inherited

Returns true if the specified colour ID has been explicitly set for this component using the setColour() method.

◆ isCurrentlyBlockedByAnotherModalComponent()

bool juce::Component::isCurrentlyBlockedByAnotherModalComponent ( ) const
inherited

Checks whether there's a modal component somewhere that's stopping this one from receiving messages.

If there is a modal component, its canModalEventBeSentToComponent() method will be called to see if it will still allow this component to receive events.

See also
runModalLoop, getCurrentlyModalComponent

◆ isCurrentlyModal()

bool juce::Component::isCurrentlyModal ( bool  onlyConsiderForemostModalComponent = true) const
noexceptinherited

Returns true if this component is the modal one.

It's possible to have nested modal components, e.g. a pop-up dialog box that launches another pop-up. If onlyConsiderForemostModalComponent is true then isCurrentlyModal will only return true for the one at the top of the stack. If onlyConsiderForemostModalComponent is false then isCurrentlyModal will return true for any modal component in the stack.

See also
getCurrentlyModalComponent

◆ isEnabled()

bool juce::Component::isEnabled ( ) const
noexceptinherited

Returns true if the component (and all its parents) are enabled.

Components are enabled by default, and can be disabled with setEnabled(). Exactly what difference this makes to the component depends on the type. E.g. buttons and sliders will choose to draw themselves differently, etc.

Note that if one of this component's parents is disabled, this will always return false, even if this component itself is enabled.

See also
setEnabled, enablementChanged

◆ isFocusContainer()

bool juce::Component::isFocusContainer ( ) const
noexceptinherited

Returns true if this component has been marked as a focus container.

See setFocusContainer() for more details.

See also
setFocusContainer, moveKeyboardFocusToSibling, createFocusTraverser

◆ isMouseButtonDown()

bool juce::Component::isMouseButtonDown ( bool  includeChildren = false) const
inherited

Returns true if the mouse button is currently held down in this component.

Note that this is a test to see whether the mouse is being pressed in this component, so it'll return false if called on component A when the mouse is actually being dragged in component B.

See also
isMouseButtonDownAnywhere, isMouseOver, isMouseOverOrDragging

◆ isMouseButtonDownAnywhere()

static bool juce::Component::isMouseButtonDownAnywhere ( )
staticnoexceptinherited

Returns true if a mouse button is currently down.

Unlike isMouseButtonDown, this will test the current state of the buttons without regard to which component (if any) it has been pressed in.

See also
isMouseButtonDown, ModifierKeys

◆ isMouseOver()

bool juce::Component::isMouseOver ( bool  includeChildren = false) const
inherited

Returns true if the mouse is currently over this component.

If the mouse isn't over the component, this will return false, even if the mouse is currently being dragged - so you can use this in your mouseDrag method to find out whether it's really over the component or not.

Note that when the mouse button is being held down, then the only component for which this method will return true is the one that was originally clicked on.

Also note that on a touch-screen device, this will only return true when a finger is actually down - as soon as all touch is released, isMouseOver will always return false.

If includeChildren is true, then this will also return true if the mouse is over any of the component's children (recursively) as well as the component itself.

See also
isMouseButtonDown. isMouseOverOrDragging, mouseDrag

◆ isMouseOverOrDragging()

bool juce::Component::isMouseOverOrDragging ( bool  includeChildren = false) const
inherited

True if the mouse is over this component, or if it's being dragged in this component.

This is a handy equivalent to (isMouseOver() || isMouseButtonDown()).

See also
isMouseOver, isMouseButtonDown, isMouseButtonDownAnywhere

◆ isOnDesktop()

bool juce::Component::isOnDesktop ( ) const
noexceptinherited

Returns true if this component is currently showing on the desktop.

See also
addToDesktop, removeFromDesktop

◆ isOpaque()

bool juce::Component::isOpaque ( ) const
noexceptinherited

the value that was set by setOpaque, (the default being false)
See also
setOpaque

◆ isPaintingUnclipped()

bool juce::Component::isPaintingUnclipped ( ) const
noexceptinherited

◆ isParentOf()

bool juce::Component::isParentOf ( const Component possibleChild) const
noexceptinherited

Checks whether a component is anywhere inside this component or its children.

This will recursively check through this component's children to see if the given component is anywhere inside.

◆ isShowing()

bool juce::Component::isShowing ( ) const
inherited

Tests whether this component and all its parents are visible.

Returns
true only if this component and all its parents are visible.
See also
isVisible

Referenced by juce::CarbonViewWrapperComponent::componentVisibilityChanged(), juce::SidePanel::isPanelShowing(), and juce::CarbonViewWrapperComponent::timerCallback().

◆ isTransformed()

bool juce::Component::isTransformed ( ) const
noexceptinherited

Returns true if a non-identity transform is being applied to this component.

For more details about transforms, see setTransform().

See also
setTransform

◆ isVisible()

bool juce::Component::isVisible ( ) const
inlinenoexceptinherited

Tests whether the component is visible or not.

this doesn't necessarily tell you whether this comp is actually on the screen because this depends on whether all the parent components are also visible - use isShowing() to find this out.

See also
isShowing, setVisible

◆ keyPressed()

virtual bool juce::Component::keyPressed ( const KeyPress key)
virtualinherited

Called when a key is pressed.

When a key is pressed, the component that has the keyboard focus will have this method called. Remember that a component will only be given the focus if its setWantsKeyboardFocus() method has been used to enable this.

If your implementation returns true, the event will be consumed and not passed on to any other listeners. If it returns false, the key will be passed to any KeyListeners that have been registered with this component. As soon as one of these returns true, the process will stop, but if they all return false, the event will be passed upwards to this component's parent, and so on.

The default implementation of this method does nothing and returns false.

See also
keyStateChanged, getCurrentlyFocusedComponent, addKeyListener

Reimplemented in juce::TreeView, juce::TextEditor, juce::ListBox, juce::Button, juce::AlertWindow, juce::ComboBox, juce::ScrollBar, juce::CodeEditorComponent, juce::MidiKeyboardComponent, juce::Viewport, juce::DialogWindow, juce::FileBrowserComponent, juce::CallOutBox, and juce::MenuBarComponent.

◆ keyStateChanged()

virtual bool juce::Component::keyStateChanged ( bool  isKeyDown)
virtualinherited

Called when a key is pressed or released.

Whenever a key on the keyboard is pressed or released (including modifier keys like shift and ctrl), this method will be called on the component that currently has the keyboard focus. Remember that a component will only be given the focus if its setWantsKeyboardFocus() method has been used to enable this.

If your implementation returns true, the event will be consumed and not passed on to any other listeners. If it returns false, then any KeyListeners that have been registered with this component will have their keyStateChanged methods called. As soon as one of these returns true, the process will stop, but if they all return false, the event will be passed upwards to this component's parent, and so on.

The default implementation of this method does nothing and returns false.

To find out which keys are up or down at any time, see the KeyPress::isKeyCurrentlyDown() method.

Parameters
isKeyDowntrue if a key has been pressed; false if it has been released

◆ localAreaToGlobal()

Rectangle<int> juce::Component::localAreaToGlobal ( Rectangle< int localArea) const
inherited

Converts a rectangle from this component's coordinate space to a screen coordinate.

If you've used setTransform() to apply one or more transforms to components, then the source rectangle may not actually be rectanglular when converted to the target space, so in that situation this will return the smallest rectangle that fully contains the transformed area.

See also
getLocalPoint, localPointToGlobal

◆ localPointToGlobal() [1/2]

Point<int> juce::Component::localPointToGlobal ( Point< int localPoint) const
inherited

See also
getLocalPoint, localAreaToGlobal

◆ lookAndFeelChanged()

virtual void juce::Component::lookAndFeelChanged ( )
virtualinherited

Called to let the component react to a change in the look-and-feel setting.

When the look-and-feel is changed for a component, this will be called in all its child components, recursively.

It can also be triggered manually by the sendLookAndFeelChange() method, in case an application uses a LookAndFeel class that might have changed internally.

◆ minimisationStateChanged()

virtual void juce::Component::minimisationStateChanged ( bool  isNowMinimised)
virtualinherited

Called for a desktop component which has just been minimised or un-minimised.

This will only be called for components on the desktop.

See also
getPeer, ComponentPeer::setMinimised, ComponentPeer::isMinimised

◆ modifierKeysChanged()

virtual void juce::Component::modifierKeysChanged ( const ModifierKeys modifiers)
virtualinherited

Called when a modifier key is pressed or released.

Whenever the shift, control, alt or command keys are pressed or released, this method will be called on the component that currently has the keyboard focus. Remember that a component will only be given the focus if its setWantsKeyboardFocus() method has been used to enable this.

The default implementation of this method actually calls its parent's modifierKeysChanged method, so that focused components which aren't interested in this will give their parents a chance to act on the event instead.

See also
keyStateChanged, ModifierKeys

Reimplemented in juce::Slider.

◆ mouseDoubleClick()

void juce::Component::mouseDoubleClick ( const MouseEvent event)
overridevirtualinherited

Called when a mouse button has been double-clicked on a component.

The MouseEvent object passed in contains lots of methods for finding out which button was pressed, as well as which modifier keys (e.g. shift, ctrl) were held down at the time.

◆ mouseDown()

void juce::Component::mouseDown ( const MouseEvent event)
overridevirtualinherited

Called when a mouse button is pressed.

The MouseEvent object passed in contains lots of methods for finding out which button was pressed, as well as which modifier keys (e.g. shift, ctrl) were held down at the time.

Once a button is held down, the mouseDrag method will be called when the mouse moves, until the button is released.

Parameters
eventdetails about the position and status of the mouse event, including the source component in which it occurred
See also
mouseUp, mouseDrag, mouseDoubleClick, contains

◆ mouseDrag()

void juce::Component::mouseDrag ( const MouseEvent event)
overridevirtualinherited

Called when the mouse is moved while a button is held down.

When a mouse button is pressed inside a component, that component receives mouseDrag callbacks each time the mouse moves, even if the mouse strays outside the component's bounds.

Parameters
eventdetails about the position and status of the mouse event, including the source component in which it occurred

◆ mouseEnter()

void juce::Component::mouseEnter ( const MouseEvent event)
overridevirtualinherited

Called when the mouse first enters a component.

If the mouse button isn't pressed and the mouse moves into a component, this will be called to let the component react to this.

When the mouse button is pressed and held down while being moved in or out of a component, no mouseEnter or mouseExit callbacks are made - only mouseDrag messages are sent to the component that the mouse was originally clicked on, until the button is released.

Parameters
eventdetails about the position and status of the mouse event, including the source component in which it occurred
See also
mouseExit, mouseDrag, mouseMove, contains

Reimplemented from juce::MouseListener.

◆ mouseExit()

void juce::Component::mouseExit ( const MouseEvent event)
overridevirtualinherited

Called when the mouse moves out of a component.

This will be called when the mouse moves off the edge of this component.

If the mouse button was pressed, and it was then dragged off the edge of the component and released, then this callback will happen when the button is released, after the mouseUp callback.

Parameters
eventdetails about the position and status of the mouse event, including the source component in which it occurred

◆ mouseMagnify()

void juce::Component::mouseMagnify ( const MouseEvent event,
float  scaleFactor 
)
overridevirtualinherited

Called when a pinch-to-zoom mouse-gesture is used.

If not overridden, a component will forward this message to its parent, so that parent components can collect gesture messages that are unused by child components.

Parameters
eventdetails about the mouse event
scaleFactora multiplier to indicate by how much the size of the target should be changed. A value of 1.0 would indicate no change, values greater than 1.0 mean it should be enlarged.

Reimplemented from juce::MouseListener.

◆ mouseMove()

void juce::Component::mouseMove ( const MouseEvent event)
overridevirtualinherited

Called when the mouse moves inside a component.

If the mouse button isn't pressed and the mouse moves over a component, this will be called to let the component react to this.

A component will always get a mouseEnter callback before a mouseMove.

Parameters
eventdetails about the position and status of the mouse event, including the source component in which it occurred
See also
mouseEnter, mouseExit, mouseDrag, contains

Reimplemented from juce::MouseListener.

Reimplemented in juce::Slider, juce::TableHeaderComponent, juce::ResizableBorderComponent, and juce::MenuBarComponent.

◆ mouseUp()

void juce::Component::mouseUp ( const MouseEvent event)
overridevirtualinherited

Called when a mouse button is released.

A mouseUp callback is sent to the component in which a button was pressed even if the mouse is actually over a different component when the button is released.

The MouseEvent object passed in contains lots of methods for finding out which buttons were down just before they were released.

Parameters
eventdetails about the position and status of the mouse event, including the source component in which it occurred
See also
mouseDown, mouseDrag, mouseDoubleClick, contains

Reimplemented from juce::MouseListener.

◆ mouseWheelMove()

void juce::Component::mouseWheelMove ( const MouseEvent event,
const MouseWheelDetails wheel 
)
overridevirtualinherited

Called when the mouse-wheel is moved.

This callback is sent to the component that the mouse is over when the wheel is moved.

If not overridden, a component will forward this message to its parent, so that parent components can collect mouse-wheel messages that happen to child components which aren't interested in them. (Bear in mind that if you attach a component as a mouse-listener to other components, then those wheel moves will also end up calling this method and being passed up to the parents, which may not be what you intended to happen).

Parameters
eventdetails about the mouse event
wheeldetails about the mouse wheel movement

Reimplemented from juce::MouseListener.

Reimplemented in juce::Slider, juce::TextEditor, juce::ListBox, juce::ComboBox, juce::ScrollBar, juce::CodeEditorComponent, and juce::Viewport.

◆ moved()

virtual void juce::Component::moved ( )
virtualinherited

Called when this component's position has been changed.

This is called when the position relative to its parent changes, not when its absolute position on the screen changes (so it won't be called for all child components when a parent component is moved).

The method is called synchronously as a result of the setBounds, setTopLeftPosition or any of the other repositioning methods, and like resized(), it will be called each time those methods are called.

If the component is a top-level window on the desktop, its position could also be changed by operating-system factors beyond the application's control.

See also
resized, setBounds

Reimplemented in juce::ResizableWindow, juce::CallOutBox, and juce::SidePanel.

◆ moveKeyboardFocusToSibling()

void juce::Component::moveKeyboardFocusToSibling ( bool  moveToNext)
inherited

Tries to move the keyboard focus to one of this component's siblings.

This will try to move focus to either the next or previous component. (This is the method that is used when shifting focus by pressing the tab key).

Components for which getWantsKeyboardFocus() returns false are not looked at.

Parameters
moveToNextif true, the focus will move forwards; if false, it will move backwards
See also
grabKeyboardFocus, setFocusContainer, setWantsKeyboardFocus

◆ paint()

void juce::PreferencesPanel::paint ( Graphics )
overridevirtual

Reimplemented from juce::Component.

◆ paintEntireComponent()

void juce::Component::paintEntireComponent ( Graphics context,
bool  ignoreAlphaLevel 
)
inherited

Draws this component and all its subcomponents onto the specified graphics context.

You should very rarely have to use this method, it's simply there in case you need to draw a component with a custom graphics context for some reason, e.g. for creating a snapshot of the component.

It calls paint(), paintOverChildren() and recursively calls paintEntireComponent() on its children in order to render the entire tree.

The graphics context may be left in an undefined state after this method returns, so you may need to reset it if you're going to use it again.

If ignoreAlphaLevel is false, then the component will be drawn with the opacity level specified by getAlpha(); if ignoreAlphaLevel is true, then this will be ignored and an alpha of 1.0 will be used.

◆ paintOverChildren()

virtual void juce::Component::paintOverChildren ( Graphics g)
virtualinherited

Components can override this method to draw over the top of their children.

For most drawing operations, it's better to use the normal paint() method, but if you need to overlay something on top of the children, this can be used.

See also
paint, Graphics

Reimplemented in juce::TextEditor, juce::ListBox, and juce::FilenameComponent.

◆ parentHierarchyChanged()

virtual void juce::Component::parentHierarchyChanged ( )
virtualinherited

Called to indicate that the component's parents have changed.

When a component is added or removed from its parent, this method will be called on all of its children (recursively - so all children of its children will also be called as well).

Subclasses can override this if they need to react to this in some way.

◆ parentSizeChanged()

virtual void juce::Component::parentSizeChanged ( )
virtualinherited

Called when this component's immediate parent has been resized.

If the component is a top-level window, this indicates that the screen size has changed.

See also
childBoundsChanged, moved, resized

Reimplemented in juce::ResizableWindow, and juce::JUCESplashScreen.

◆ postCommandMessage()

void juce::Component::postCommandMessage ( int  commandId)
inherited

Dispatches a numbered message to this component.

This is a quick and cheap way of allowing simple asynchronous messages to be sent to components. It's also safe, because if the component that you send the message to is a null or dangling pointer, this won't cause an error.

The command ID is later delivered to the component's handleCommandMessage() method by the application's message queue.

See also
handleCommandMessage

◆ proportionOfHeight()

int juce::Component::proportionOfHeight ( float  proportion) const
noexceptinherited

Returns a proportion of the component's height.

This is a handy equivalent of (getHeight() * proportion).

◆ proportionOfWidth()

int juce::Component::proportionOfWidth ( float  proportion) const
noexceptinherited

Returns a proportion of the component's width.

This is a handy equivalent of (getWidth() * proportion).

◆ reallyContains()

bool juce::Component::reallyContains ( Point< int localPoint,
bool  returnTrueIfWithinAChild 
)
inherited

Returns true if a given point lies in this component, taking any overlapping siblings into account.

Parameters
localPointthe coordinate to test, relative to this component's top-left.
returnTrueIfWithinAChildif the point actually lies within a child of this component, this determines whether that is counted as a hit.
See also
contains, getComponentAt

◆ removeAllChildren()

void juce::Component::removeAllChildren ( )
inherited

Removes all this component's children.

Note that this won't delete them! To do that, use deleteAllChildren() instead.

◆ removeChildComponent() [1/2]

void juce::Component::removeChildComponent ( Component childToRemove)
inherited

Removes one of this component's child-components.

If the child passed-in isn't actually a child of this component (either because it's invalid or is the child of a different parent), then no action is taken.

Note that removing a child will not delete it! But it's ok to delete a component without first removing it - doing so will automatically remove it and send out the appropriate notifications before the deletion completes.

See also
addChildComponent, ComponentListener::componentChildrenChanged

◆ removeChildComponent() [2/2]

Component* juce::Component::removeChildComponent ( int  childIndexToRemove)
inherited

Removes one of this component's child-components by index.

This will return a pointer to the component that was removed, or null if the index was out-of-range.

Note that removing a child will not delete it! But it's ok to delete a component without first removing it - doing so will automatically remove it and send out the appropriate notifications before the deletion completes.

addChildComponent, ComponentListener::componentChildrenChanged

◆ removeColour()

void juce::Component::removeColour ( int  colourID)
inherited

If a colour has been set with setColour(), this will remove it.

inherited

Removes a component listener.

See also
addComponentListener

◆ removeFromDesktop()

void juce::Component::removeFromDesktop ( )
inherited

void juce::Component::repaint ( )
inherited

Marks the whole component as needing to be redrawn.

Calling this will not do any repainting immediately, but will mark the component as 'dirty'. At some point in the near future the operating system will send a paint message, which will redraw all the dirty regions of all components. There's no guarantee about how soon after calling repaint() the redraw will actually happen, and other queued events may be delivered before a redraw is done.

If the setBufferedToImage() method has been used to cause this component to use a buffer, the repaint() call will invalidate the cached buffer. If setCachedComponentImage() has been used to provide a custom image cache, that cache will be invalidated appropriately.

To redraw just a subsection of the component rather than the whole thing, use the repaint (int, int, int, int) method.

◆ repaint() [2/3]

void juce::Component::repaint ( int  x,
int  y,
int  width,
int  height 
)
inherited

Marks a subsection of this component as needing to be redrawn.

Calling this will not do any repainting immediately, but will mark the given region of the component as 'dirty'. At some point in the near future the operating system will send a paint message, which will redraw all the dirty regions of all components. There's no guarantee about how soon after calling repaint() the redraw will actually happen, and other queued events may be delivered before a redraw is done.

The region that is passed in will be clipped to keep it within the bounds of this component.

◆ repaint() [3/3]

void juce::Component::repaint ( Rectangle< int area)
inherited

Marks a subsection of this component as needing to be redrawn.

Calling this will not do any repainting immediately, but will mark the given region of the component as 'dirty'. At some point in the near future the operating system will send a paint message, which will redraw all the dirty regions of all components. There's no guarantee about how soon after calling repaint() the redraw will actually happen, and other queued events may be delivered before a redraw is done.

◆ resized()

void juce::PreferencesPanel::resized ( )
overridevirtual

Reimplemented from juce::Component.

◆ runModalLoop()

int juce::Component::runModalLoop ( )
inherited

Runs a component modally, waiting until the loop terminates.

This method first makes the component visible, brings it to the front and gives it the keyboard focus.

It then runs a loop, dispatching messages from the system message queue, but blocking all mouse or keyboard messages from reaching any components other than this one and its children.

This loop continues until the component's exitModalState() method is called (or the component is deleted), and then this method returns, returning the value passed into exitModalState().

Note that you SHOULD NEVER USE THIS METHOD! Modal loops are a dangerous construct because things that happen during the events that they dispatch could affect the state of objects which are currently in use somewhere on the stack, so when the loop finishes and the stack unwinds, horrible problems can occur. This is especially bad in plugins, where the host may choose to delete the plugin during runModalLoop(), so that when it returns, the entire DLL could have been unloaded from memory! Also, some OSes deliberately make it impossible to run modal loops (e.g. Android), so this method won't even exist on some platforms.

◆ sendLookAndFeelChange()

void juce::Component::sendLookAndFeelChange ( )
inherited

Calls the lookAndFeelChanged() method in this component and all its children.

This will recurse through the children and their children, calling lookAndFeelChanged() on them all.

See also
lookAndFeelChanged

◆ setAlpha()

void juce::Component::setAlpha ( float  newAlpha)
inherited

Changes the transparency of this component.

When painted, the entire component and all its children will be rendered with this as the overall opacity level, where 0 is completely invisible, and 1.0 is fully opaque (i.e. normal).

See also
getAlpha, alphaChanged

◆ setAlwaysOnTop()

void juce::Component::setAlwaysOnTop ( bool  shouldStayOnTop)
inherited

Sets whether the component should always be kept at the front of its siblings.

See also
isAlwaysOnTop

◆ setBounds() [1/2]

void juce::Component::setBounds ( int  x,
int  y,
int  width,
int  height 
)
inherited

Changes the component's position and size.

The coordinates are relative to the top-left of the component's parent, or relative to the origin of the screen if the component is on the desktop.

If this method changes the component's top-left position, it will make a synchronous call to moved(). If it changes the size, it will also make a call to resized().

Note that if you've used setTransform() to apply a transform, then the component's bounds will no longer be a direct reflection of the position at which it appears within its parent, as the transform will be applied to whatever bounds you set for it.

See also
setTopLeftPosition, setSize, ComponentListener::componentMovedOrResized

◆ setBounds() [2/2]

void juce::Component::setBounds ( Rectangle< int newBounds)
inherited

Changes the component's position and size.

The coordinates are relative to the top-left of the component's parent, or relative to the origin of the screen if the component is on the desktop.

If this method changes the component's top-left position, it will make a synchronous call to moved(). If it changes the size, it will also make a call to resized().

Note that if you've used setTransform() to apply a transform, then the component's bounds will no longer be a direct reflection of the position at which it appears within its parent, as the transform will be applied to whatever bounds you set for it.

See also
setBounds

◆ setBoundsInset()

void juce::Component::setBoundsInset ( BorderSize< int borders)
inherited

Changes the component's position and size based on the amount of space to leave around it.

This will position the component within its parent, leaving the specified number of pixels around each edge.

See also
setBounds

◆ setBoundsRelative() [1/2]

void juce::Component::setBoundsRelative ( float  proportionalX,
float  proportionalY,
float  proportionalWidth,
float  proportionalHeight 
)
inherited

Changes the component's position and size in terms of fractions of its parent's size.

The values are factors of the parent's size, so for example setBoundsRelative (0.2f, 0.2f, 0.5f, 0.5f) would give it half the width and height of the parent, with its top-left position 20% of the way across and down the parent.

See also
setBounds

◆ setBoundsRelative() [2/2]

void juce::Component::setBoundsRelative ( Rectangle< float proportionalArea)
inherited

Changes the component's position and size in terms of fractions of its parent's size.

The values are factors of the parent's size, so for example setBoundsRelative ({ 0.2f, 0.2f, 0.5f, 0.5f }) would give it half the width and height of the parent, with its top-left position 20% of the way across and down the parent.

See also
setBounds

◆ setBoundsToFit()

void juce::Component::setBoundsToFit ( Rectangle< int targetArea,
Justification  justification,
bool  onlyReduceInSize 
)
inherited

Positions the component within a given rectangle, keeping its proportions unchanged.

If onlyReduceInSize is false, the component will be resized to fill as much of the rectangle as possible without changing its aspect ratio (the component's current size is used to determine its aspect ratio, so a zero-size component won't work here). If onlyReduceInSize is true, it will only be resized if it's too big to fit inside the rectangle.

It will then be positioned within the rectangle according to the justification flags specified.

See also
setBounds

◆ setBroughtToFrontOnMouseClick()

void juce::Component::setBroughtToFrontOnMouseClick ( bool  shouldBeBroughtToFront)
noexceptinherited

Indicates whether the component should be brought to the front when clicked.

Setting this flag to true will cause the component to be brought to the front when the mouse is clicked somewhere inside it or its child components.

Note that a top-level desktop window might still be brought to the front by the operating system when it's clicked, depending on how the OS works.

By default this is set to false.

See also
setMouseClickGrabsKeyboardFocus

◆ setBufferedToImage()

void juce::Component::setBufferedToImage ( bool  shouldBeBuffered)
inherited

Makes the component use an internal buffer to optimise its redrawing.

Setting this flag to true will cause the component to allocate an internal buffer into which it paints itself and all its child components, so that when asked to redraw itself, it can use this buffer rather than actually calling the paint() method.

Parts of the buffer are invalidated when repaint() is called on this component or its children. The buffer is then repainted at the next paint() callback.

See also
repaint, paint, createComponentSnapshot

◆ setButtonSize()

void juce::PreferencesPanel::setButtonSize ( int  newSize)

Changes the size of the buttons shown along the top.

◆ setCachedComponentImage()

void juce::Component::setCachedComponentImage ( CachedComponentImage newCachedImage)
inherited

Gives the component a CachedComponentImage that should be used to buffer its painting.

The object that is passed-in will be owned by this component, and will be deleted automatically later on.

See also
setBufferedToImage

◆ setCentrePosition() [1/2]

void juce::Component::setCentrePosition ( int  x,
int  y 
)
inherited

Changes the position of the component's centre.

Leaves the component's size unchanged, but sets the position of its centre relative to its parent's top-left.

See also
setBounds

◆ setCentrePosition() [2/2]

void juce::Component::setCentrePosition ( Point< int newCentrePosition)
inherited

Changes the position of the component's centre.

Leaves the component's size unchanged, but sets the position of its centre relative to its parent's top-left.

See also
setBounds

◆ setCentreRelative()

void juce::Component::setCentreRelative ( float  x,
float  y 
)
inherited

Changes the position of the component's centre.

Leaves the size unchanged, but positions its centre relative to its parent's size. E.g. setCentreRelative (0.5f, 0.5f) would place it centrally in its parent.

◆ setColour()

void juce::Component::setColour ( int  colourID,
Colour  newColour 
)
inherited

Registers a colour to be used for a particular purpose.

Changing a colour will cause a synchronous callback to the colourChanged() method, which your component can override if it needs to do something when colours are altered.

For more details about colour IDs, see the comments for findColour().

See also
findColour, isColourSpecified, colourChanged, LookAndFeel::findColour, LookAndFeel::setColour

◆ setComponentEffect()

void juce::Component::setComponentEffect ( ImageEffectFilter newEffect)
inherited

Adds an effect filter to alter the component's appearance.

When a component has an effect filter set, then this is applied to the results of its paint() method. There are a few preset effects, such as a drop-shadow or glow, but they can be user-defined as well.

The effect that is passed in will not be deleted by the component - the caller must take care of deleting it.

To remove an effect from a component, pass a null pointer in as the parameter.

See also
ImageEffectFilter, DropShadowEffect, GlowEffect

◆ setComponentID()

void juce::Component::setComponentID ( const String newID)
inherited

Sets the component's ID string.

You can retrieve the ID using getComponentID().

See also
getComponentID, findChildWithID

◆ setCurrentPage()

void juce::PreferencesPanel::setCurrentPage ( const String pageName)

Changes the current page being displayed.

◆ setEnabled()

void juce::Component::setEnabled ( bool  shouldBeEnabled)
inherited

Enables or disables this component.

Disabling a component will also cause all of its child components to become disabled.

Similarly, enabling a component which is inside a disabled parent component won't make any difference until the parent is re-enabled.

See also
isEnabled, enablementChanged

◆ setExplicitFocusOrder()

void juce::Component::setExplicitFocusOrder ( int  newFocusOrderIndex)
inherited

Sets the index used in determining the order in which focusable components should be traversed.

A value of 0 or less is taken to mean that no explicit order is wanted, and that traversal should use other factors, like the component's position.

See also
getExplicitFocusOrder, moveKeyboardFocusToSibling

◆ setFocusContainer()

void juce::Component::setFocusContainer ( bool  shouldBeFocusContainer)
noexceptinherited

Indicates whether this component is a parent for components that can have their focus traversed.

This flag is used by the default implementation of the createFocusTraverser() method, which uses the flag to find the first parent component (of the currently focused one) which wants to be a focus container.

So using this method to set the flag to 'true' causes this component to act as the top level within which focus is passed around.

See also
isFocusContainer, createFocusTraverser, moveKeyboardFocusToSibling

◆ setInterceptsMouseClicks()

void juce::Component::setInterceptsMouseClicks ( bool  allowClicksOnThisComponent,
bool  allowClicksOnChildComponents 
)
noexceptinherited

Changes the default return value for the hitTest() method.

Setting this to false is an easy way to make a component pass its mouse-clicks through to the components behind it.

When a component is created, the default setting for this is true.

Parameters
allowClicksOnThisComponentif true, hitTest() will always return true; if false, it will return false (or true for child components if allowClicksOnChildComponents is true)
allowClicksOnChildComponentsif this is true and allowClicksOnThisComponent is false, then child components can be clicked on as normal but clicks on this component pass straight through; if this is false and allowClicksOnThisComponent is false, then neither this component nor any child components can be clicked on
See also
hitTest, getInterceptsMouseClicks

◆ setLookAndFeel()

void juce::Component::setLookAndFeel ( LookAndFeel newLookAndFeel)
inherited

Sets the look and feel to use for this component.

This will also change the look and feel for any child components that haven't had their look set explicitly.

The object passed in will not be deleted by the component, so it's the caller's responsibility to manage it. It may be used at any time until this component has been deleted.

Calling this method will also invoke the sendLookAndFeelChange() method.

See also
getLookAndFeel, lookAndFeelChanged

◆ setMouseClickGrabsKeyboardFocus()

void juce::Component::setMouseClickGrabsKeyboardFocus ( bool  shouldGrabFocus)
inherited

Chooses whether a click on this component automatically grabs the focus.

By default this is set to true, but you might want a component which can be focused, but where you don't want the user to be able to affect it directly by clicking.

◆ setMouseCursor()

void juce::Component::setMouseCursor ( const MouseCursor cursorType)
inherited

Changes the mouse cursor shape to use when the mouse is over this component.

Note that the cursor set by this method can be overridden by the getMouseCursor method.

See also
MouseCursor

◆ setName()

virtual void juce::Component::setName ( const String newName)
virtualinherited

Sets the name of this component.

When the name changes, all registered ComponentListeners will receive a ComponentListener::componentNameChanged() callback.

See also
getName

Reimplemented in juce::DocumentWindow.

◆ setOpaque()

void juce::Component::setOpaque ( bool  shouldBeOpaque)
inherited

Indicates whether any parts of the component might be transparent.

Components that always paint all of their contents with solid colour and thus completely cover any components behind them should use this method to tell the repaint system that they are opaque.

This information is used to optimise drawing, because it means that objects underneath opaque windows don't need to be painted.

By default, components are considered transparent, unless this is used to make it otherwise.

See also
isOpaque

◆ setPaintingIsUnclipped()

void juce::Component::setPaintingIsUnclipped ( bool  shouldPaintWithoutClipping)
noexceptinherited

This allows you to indicate that this component doesn't require its graphics context to be clipped when it is being painted.

Most people will never need to use this setting, but in situations where you have a very large number of simple components being rendered, and where they are guaranteed never to do any drawing beyond their own boundaries, setting this to true will reduce the overhead involved in clipping the graphics context that gets passed to the component's paint() callback. If you enable this mode, you'll need to make sure your paint method doesn't call anything like Graphics::fillAll(), and doesn't draw beyond the component's bounds, because that'll produce artifacts. Your component also can't have any child components that may be placed beyond its bounds.

◆ setPositioner()

void juce::Component::setPositioner ( Positioner newPositioner)
inherited

Sets a new Positioner object for this component.

If there's currently another positioner set, it will be deleted. The object that is passed in will be deleted automatically by this component when it's no longer required. Pass a null pointer to clear the current positioner.

See also
getPositioner()

◆ setRepaintsOnMouseActivity()

void juce::Component::setRepaintsOnMouseActivity ( bool  shouldRepaint)
noexceptinherited

Causes automatic repaints when the mouse enters or exits this component.

If turned on, then when the mouse enters/exits, or when the button is pressed/released on the component, it will trigger a repaint.

This is handy for things like buttons that need to draw themselves differently when the mouse moves over them, and it avoids having to override all the different mouse callbacks and call repaint().

See also
mouseEnter, mouseExit, mouseDown, mouseUp

◆ setSize()

void juce::Component::setSize ( int  newWidth,
int  newHeight 
)
inherited

Changes the size of the component.

A synchronous call to resized() will occur if the size actually changes.

Note that if you've used setTransform() to apply a transform, then the component's bounds will no longer be a direct reflection of the position at which it appears within its parent, as the transform will be applied to whatever bounds you set for it.

Referenced by juce::CarbonViewWrapperComponent::setOurSizeToEmbeddedViewSize().

◆ setTopLeftPosition() [1/2]

void juce::Component::setTopLeftPosition ( int  x,
int  y 
)
inherited

Moves the component to a new position.

Changes the component's top-left position (without changing its size). The position is relative to the top-left of the component's parent.

If the component actually moves, this method will make a synchronous call to moved().

Note that if you've used setTransform() to apply a transform, then the component's bounds will no longer be a direct reflection of the position at which it appears within its parent, as the transform will be applied to whatever bounds you set for it.

See also
setBounds, ComponentListener::componentMovedOrResized

◆ setTopLeftPosition() [2/2]

void juce::Component::setTopLeftPosition ( Point< int newTopLeftPosition)
inherited

Moves the component to a new position.

Changes the component's top-left position (without changing its size). The position is relative to the top-left of the component's parent.

If the component actually moves, this method will make a synchronous call to moved().

Note that if you've used setTransform() to apply a transform, then the component's bounds will no longer be a direct reflection of the position at which it appears within its parent, as the transform will be applied to whatever bounds you set for it.

See also
setBounds, ComponentListener::componentMovedOrResized

◆ setTopRightPosition()

void juce::Component::setTopRightPosition ( int  x,
int  y 
)
inherited

Moves the component to a new position.

Changes the position of the component's top-right corner (keeping it the same size). The position is relative to the top-left of the component's parent.

If the component actually moves, this method will make a synchronous call to moved().

Note that if you've used setTransform() to apply a transform, then the component's bounds will no longer be a direct reflection of the position at which it appears within its parent, as the transform will be applied to whatever bounds you set for it.

◆ setTransform()

void juce::Component::setTransform ( const AffineTransform transform)
inherited

Sets a transform matrix to be applied to this component.

If you set a transform for a component, the component's position will be warped by it, relative to the component's parent's top-left origin. This means that the values you pass into setBounds() will no longer reflect the actual area within the parent that the component covers, as the bounds will be transformed and the component will probably end up actually appearing somewhere else within its parent.

When using transforms you need to be extremely careful when converting coordinates between the coordinate spaces of different components or the screen - you should always use getLocalPoint(), getLocalArea(), etc to do this, and never just manually add a component's position to a point in order to convert it between different components (but I'm sure you would never have done that anyway...).

Currently, transforms are not supported for desktop windows, so the transform will be ignored if you put a component on the desktop.

To remove a component's transform, simply pass AffineTransform() as the parameter to this method.

◆ setViewportIgnoreDragFlag()

void juce::Component::setViewportIgnoreDragFlag ( bool  ignoreDrag)
inlinenoexceptinherited

Sets a flag to indicate whether mouse drag events on this Component should be ignored when it is inside a Viewport with drag-to-scroll functionality enabled.

This is useful for Components such as sliders that should not move their parent Viewport when dragged.

◆ setVisible()

virtual void juce::Component::setVisible ( bool  shouldBeVisible)
virtualinherited

Makes the component visible or invisible.

This method will show or hide the component. Note that components default to being non-visible when first created. Also note that visible components won't be seen unless all their parent components are also visible.

This method will call visibilityChanged() and also componentVisibilityChanged() for any component listeners that are interested in this component.

Parameters
shouldBeVisiblewhether to show or hide the component
See also
isVisible, isShowing, visibilityChanged, ComponentListener::componentVisibilityChanged

Reimplemented in juce::ScrollBar.

◆ setWantsKeyboardFocus()

void juce::Component::setWantsKeyboardFocus ( bool  wantsFocus)
noexceptinherited

Sets a flag to indicate whether this component needs keyboard focus or not.

By default components aren't actually interested in gaining the focus, but this method can be used to turn this on.

See the grabKeyboardFocus() method for details about the way a component is chosen to receive the focus.

See also
grabKeyboardFocus, getWantsKeyboardFocus

◆ showInDialogBox()

void juce::PreferencesPanel::showInDialogBox ( const String dialogTitle,
int  dialogWidth,
int  dialogHeight,
Colour  backgroundColour = Colours::white 
)

Utility method to display this panel in a DialogWindow.

Calling this will create a DialogWindow containing this panel with the given size and title, and will run it modally, returning when the user closes the dialog box.

◆ toBack()

void juce::Component::toBack ( )
inherited

Changes this component's z-order to be at the back of all its siblings.

If the component is set to be 'always-on-top', it will only be moved to the back of the other other 'always-on-top' components.

See also
toFront, toBehind, setAlwaysOnTop

◆ toBehind()

void juce::Component::toBehind ( Component other)
inherited

Changes this component's z-order so that it's just behind another component.

See also
toFront, toBack

◆ toFront()

void juce::Component::toFront ( bool  shouldAlsoGainFocus)
inherited

Brings the component to the front of its siblings.

If some of the component's siblings have had their 'always-on-top' flag set, then they will still be kept in front of this one (unless of course this one is also 'always-on-top').

Parameters
shouldAlsoGainFocusif true, this will also try to assign keyboard focus to the component (see grabKeyboardFocus() for more details)
See also
toBack, toBehind, setAlwaysOnTop

Referenced by juce::CarbonViewWrapperComponent::carbonEventHandler().

◆ unfocusAllComponents()

static void juce::Component::unfocusAllComponents ( )
staticinherited

If any component has keyboard focus, this will defocus it.

◆ updateMouseCursor()

void juce::Component::updateMouseCursor ( ) const
inherited

Forces the current mouse cursor to be updated.

If you're overriding the getMouseCursor() method to control which cursor is displayed, then this will only be checked each time the user moves the mouse. So if you want to force the system to check that the cursor being displayed is up-to-date (even if the mouse is just sitting there), call this method.

(If you're changing the cursor using setMouseCursor(), you don't need to bother calling this).

◆ userTriedToCloseWindow()

virtual void juce::Component::userTriedToCloseWindow ( )
virtualinherited

For components on the desktop, this is called if the system wants to close the window.

This is a signal that either the user or the system wants the window to close. The default implementation of this method will trigger an assertion to warn you that your component should do something about it, but you can override this to ignore the event if you want.

Reimplemented in juce::AlertWindow.

◆ visibilityChanged()

virtual void juce::Component::visibilityChanged ( )
virtualinherited

Called when this component's visibility changes.

See also
setVisible, isVisible

Reimplemented in juce::ListBox, juce::Button, juce::ResizableWindow, juce::TopLevelWindow, juce::WebBrowserComponent, and juce::ProgressBar.
