wxTreeCtrl Class Reference

#include <wx/treectrl.h>

+ Inheritance diagram for wxTreeCtrl:

Detailed Description

A tree control presents information as a hierarchy, with items that may be expanded to show further items.

Items in a tree control are referenced by wxTreeItemId handles, which may be tested for validity by calling wxTreeItemId::IsOk().

A similar control with a fully native implementation for GTK+ and OS X as well is wxDataViewTreeCtrl.

To intercept events from a tree control, use the event table macros described in wxTreeEvent.

Styles

This class supports the following styles:

  • wxTR_EDIT_LABELS:
    Use this style if you wish the user to be able to edit labels in the tree control.
  • wxTR_NO_BUTTONS:
    For convenience to document that no buttons are to be drawn.
  • wxTR_HAS_BUTTONS:
    Use this style to show + and - buttons to the left of parent items.
  • wxTR_TWIST_BUTTONS:
    Selects alternative style of +/- buttons and shows rotating ("twisting") arrows instead. Currently this style is only implemented under Microsoft Windows Vista and later Windows versions and is ignored under the other platforms. Notice that under Vista this style results in the same appearance as used by the tree control in Explorer and other built-in programs and so using it may be preferable to the default style.
  • wxTR_NO_LINES:
    Use this style to hide vertical level connectors.
  • wxTR_FULL_ROW_HIGHLIGHT:
    Use this style to have the background colour and the selection highlight extend over the entire horizontal row of the tree control window. (This flag is ignored under Windows unless you specify wxTR_NO_LINES as well.)
  • wxTR_LINES_AT_ROOT:
    Use this style to show lines between root nodes. Only applicable if wxTR_HIDE_ROOT is set and wxTR_NO_LINES is not set.
  • wxTR_HIDE_ROOT:
    Use this style to suppress the display of the root node, effectively causing the first-level nodes to appear as a series of root nodes.
  • wxTR_ROW_LINES:
    Use this style to draw a contrasting border between displayed rows.
  • wxTR_HAS_VARIABLE_ROW_HEIGHT:
    Use this style to cause row heights to be just big enough to fit the content. If not set, all rows use the largest row height. The default is that this flag is unset. Generic only.
  • wxTR_SINGLE:
    For convenience to document that only one item may be selected at a time. Selecting another item causes the current selection, if any, to be deselected. This is the default.
  • wxTR_MULTIPLE:
    Use this style to allow a range of items to be selected. If a second range is selected, the current range, if any, is deselected.
  • wxTR_DEFAULT_STYLE:
    The set of flags that are closest to the defaults for the native control for a particular toolkit.

Events emitted by this class

The following event handler macros redirect the events to member function handlers 'func' with prototypes like:

void handlerFuncName(wxTreeEvent& event)

Event macros for events emitted by this class:

  • EVT_TREE_BEGIN_DRAG(id, func):
    Begin dragging with the left mouse button. If you want to enable left-dragging you need to intercept this event and explicitly call wxTreeEvent::Allow(), as it's vetoed by default. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_BEGIN_DRAG event type.
  • EVT_TREE_BEGIN_RDRAG(id, func):
    Begin dragging with the right mouse button. If you want to enable right-dragging you need to intercept this event and explicitly call wxTreeEvent::Allow(), as it's vetoed by default. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_BEGIN_RDRAG event type.
  • EVT_TREE_END_DRAG(id, func):
    End dragging with the left or right mouse button. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_END_DRAG event type.
  • EVT_TREE_BEGIN_LABEL_EDIT(id, func):
    Begin editing a label. This can be prevented by calling Veto(). Processes a wxEVT_TREE_BEGIN_LABEL_EDIT event type.
  • EVT_TREE_END_LABEL_EDIT(id, func):
    Finish editing a label. This can be prevented by calling Veto(). Processes a wxEVT_TREE_END_LABEL_EDIT event type.
  • EVT_TREE_DELETE_ITEM(id, func):
    An item was deleted. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_DELETE_ITEM event type.
  • EVT_TREE_GET_INFO(id, func):
    Request information from the application. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_GET_INFO event type.
  • EVT_TREE_SET_INFO(id, func):
    Information is being supplied. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_SET_INFO event type.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_ACTIVATED(id, func):
    The item has been activated, i.e. chosen by double clicking it with mouse or from keyboard. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_ITEM_ACTIVATED event type.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_COLLAPSED(id, func):
    The item has been collapsed. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_ITEM_COLLAPSED event type.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_COLLAPSING(id, func):
    The item is being collapsed. This can be prevented by calling Veto(). Processes a wxEVT_TREE_ITEM_COLLAPSING event type.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_EXPANDED(id, func):
    The item has been expanded. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_ITEM_EXPANDED event type.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_EXPANDING(id, func):
    The item is being expanded. This can be prevented by calling Veto(). Processes a wxEVT_TREE_ITEM_EXPANDING event type.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_RIGHT_CLICK(id, func):
    The user has clicked the item with the right mouse button. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_ITEM_RIGHT_CLICK event type.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_MIDDLE_CLICK(id, func):
    The user has clicked the item with the middle mouse button. This is only supported by the generic control. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_ITEM_MIDDLE_CLICK event type.
  • EVT_TREE_SEL_CHANGED(id, func):
    Selection has changed. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_SEL_CHANGED event type.
  • EVT_TREE_SEL_CHANGING(id, func):

  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_GETTOOLTIP(id, func):
    The opportunity to set the item tooltip is being given to the application (call wxTreeEvent::SetToolTip). Windows only. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_ITEM_GETTOOLTIP event type.
  • EVT_TREE_ITEM_MENU(id, func):
    The context menu for the selected item has been requested, either by a right click or by using the menu key. Processes a wxEVT_TREE_ITEM_MENU event type.

Win32 notes:

wxTreeCtrl class uses the standard common treeview control under Win32 implemented in the system library comctl32.dll. Some versions of this library are known to have bugs with handling the tree control colours: the usual symptom is that the expanded items leave black (or otherwise incorrectly coloured) background behind them, especially for the controls using non-default background colour. The recommended solution is to upgrade the comctl32.dll to a newer version: see http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=cb2cf3a2-8025-4e8f-8511-9b476a8d35d2

Member Function Documentation

virtual wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::AddRoot ( const wxString text,
int  image = -1,
int  selImage = -1,
wxTreeItemData data = NULL 
)
virtual

Adds the root node to the tree, returning the new item.

The image and selImage parameters are an index within the normal image list specifying the image to use for unselected and selected items, respectively. If image -1 and selImage is -1, the same image is used for both selected and unselected items.

wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::AppendItem ( const wxTreeItemId parent,
const wxString text,
int  image = -1,
int  selImage = -1,
wxTreeItemData data = NULL 
)

Appends an item to the end of the branch identified by parent, return a new item id.

The image and selImage parameters are an index within the normal image list specifying the image to use for unselected and selected items, respectively. If image > -1 and selImage is -1, the same image is used for both selected and unselected items.

void wxTreeCtrl::AssignButtonsImageList ( wxImageList imageList)

Sets the buttons image list.

The button images assigned with this method will be automatically deleted by wxTreeCtrl as appropriate (i.e. it takes ownership of the list).

Setting or assigning the button image list enables the display of image buttons. Once enabled, the only way to disable the display of button images is to set the button image list to NULL.

This function is only available in the generic version.

See Also
SetButtonsImageList().
void wxTreeCtrl::AssignImageList ( wxImageList imageList)

Sets the normal image list.

The image list assigned with this method will be automatically deleted by wxTreeCtrl as appropriate (i.e. it takes ownership of the list).

See Also
SetImageList().
void wxTreeCtrl::AssignStateImageList ( wxImageList imageList)

Sets the state image list.

Image list assigned with this method will be automatically deleted by wxTreeCtrl as appropriate (i.e. it takes ownership of the list).

See Also
SetStateImageList().
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::ClearFocusedItem ( )
virtual

Clears the currently focused item.

Since
2.9.1
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::Collapse ( const wxTreeItemId item)
virtual

Collapses the given item.

void wxTreeCtrl::CollapseAll ( )

Collapses the root item.

See Also
ExpandAll()
void wxTreeCtrl::CollapseAllChildren ( const wxTreeItemId item)

Collapses this item and all of its children, recursively.

See Also
ExpandAllChildren()
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::CollapseAndReset ( const wxTreeItemId item)
virtual

Collapses the given item and removes all children.

bool wxTreeCtrl::Create ( wxWindow parent,
wxWindowID  id = wxID_ANY,
const wxPoint pos = wxDefaultPosition,
const wxSize size = wxDefaultSize,
long  style = wxTR_DEFAULT_STYLE,
const wxValidator validator = wxDefaultValidator,
const wxString name = wxTreeCtrlNameStr 
)

Creates the tree control.

See wxTreeCtrl::wxTreeCtrl() for further details.

virtual void wxTreeCtrl::Delete ( const wxTreeItemId item)
virtual

Deletes the specified item.

A EVT_TREE_DELETE_ITEM event will be generated.

This function may cause a subsequent call to GetNextChild() to fail.

virtual void wxTreeCtrl::DeleteAllItems ( )
virtual

Deletes all items in the control.

Note that this may not generate EVT_TREE_DELETE_ITEM events under some Windows versions although normally such event is generated for each removed item.

virtual void wxTreeCtrl::DeleteChildren ( const wxTreeItemId item)
virtual

Deletes all children of the given item (but not the item itself).

Note that this will not generate any events unlike Delete() method.

If you have called SetItemHasChildren(), you may need to call it again since DeleteChildren() does not automatically clear the setting.

virtual wxTextCtrl* wxTreeCtrl::EditLabel ( const wxTreeItemId item,
wxClassInfo textCtrlClass = wxCLASSINFO(wxTextCtrl) 
)
virtual

Starts editing the label of the given item.

This function generates a EVT_TREE_BEGIN_LABEL_EDIT event which can be vetoed so that no text control will appear for in-place editing.

If the user changed the label (i.e. s/he does not press ESC or leave the text control without changes, a EVT_TREE_END_LABEL_EDIT event will be sent which can be vetoed as well.

See Also
EndEditLabel(), wxTreeEvent
void wxTreeCtrl::EnableBellOnNoMatch ( bool  on = true)

Enable or disable a beep if there is no match for the currently entered text when searching for the item from keyboard.

The default is to not beep in this case except in wxMSW where the beep is always generated by the native control and cannot be disabled, i.e. calls to this function do nothing there.

Since
2.9.5
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::EndEditLabel ( const wxTreeItemId item,
bool  discardChanges = false 
)
virtual

Ends label editing.

If cancelEdit is true, the edit will be cancelled.

Note
This function is currently supported under Windows only.
See Also
EditLabel()
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::EnsureVisible ( const wxTreeItemId item)
virtual

Scrolls and/or expands items to ensure that the given item is visible.

virtual void wxTreeCtrl::Expand ( const wxTreeItemId item)
virtual

Expands the given item.

void wxTreeCtrl::ExpandAll ( )

Expands all items in the tree.

void wxTreeCtrl::ExpandAllChildren ( const wxTreeItemId item)

Expands the given item and all its children recursively.

virtual bool wxTreeCtrl::GetBoundingRect ( const wxTreeItemId item,
wxRect rect,
bool  textOnly = false 
) const
virtual

Retrieves the rectangle bounding the item.

If textOnly is true, only the rectangle around the item's label will be returned, otherwise the item's image is also taken into account.

The return value is true if the rectangle was successfully retrieved or false if it was not (in this case rect is not changed) – for example, if the item is currently invisible.

Notice that the rectangle coordinates are logical, not physical ones. So, for example, the x coordinate may be negative if the tree has a horizontal scrollbar and its position is not 0.

wxPerl Note: In wxPerl this method only takes the item and textOnly parameters and returns a Wx::Rect (or undef).

wxImageList* wxTreeCtrl::GetButtonsImageList ( ) const

Returns the buttons image list (from which application-defined button images are taken).

This function is only available in the generic version.

virtual size_t wxTreeCtrl::GetChildrenCount ( const wxTreeItemId item,
bool  recursively = true 
) const
virtual

Returns the number of items in the branch.

If recursively is true, returns the total number of descendants, otherwise only one level of children is counted.

virtual unsigned int wxTreeCtrl::GetCount ( ) const
virtual

Returns the number of items in the control.

virtual wxTextCtrl* wxTreeCtrl::GetEditControl ( ) const
virtual

Returns the edit control being currently used to edit a label.

Returns NULL if no label is being edited.

Note
This is currently only implemented for wxMSW.
virtual wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::GetFirstChild ( const wxTreeItemId item,
wxTreeItemIdValue &  cookie 
) const
virtual

Returns the first child; call GetNextChild() for the next child.

For this enumeration function you must pass in a 'cookie' parameter which is opaque for the application but is necessary for the library to make these functions reentrant (i.e. allow more than one enumeration on one and the same object simultaneously). The cookie passed to GetFirstChild() and GetNextChild() should be the same variable.

Returns an invalid tree item (i.e. wxTreeItemId::IsOk() returns false) if there are no further children.

wxPerl Note: In wxPerl this method only takes the item parameter, and returns a 2-element list (item, cookie).

See Also
GetNextChild(), GetNextSibling()
virtual wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::GetFirstVisibleItem ( ) const
virtual

Returns the first visible item.

virtual wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::GetFocusedItem ( ) const

Since
2.9.1
wxImageList* wxTreeCtrl::GetImageList ( ) const

Returns the normal image list.

virtual unsigned int wxTreeCtrl::GetIndent ( ) const
virtual

virtual wxTreeItemData* wxTreeCtrl::GetItemData ( const wxTreeItemId item) const
virtual

Returns the tree item data associated with the item.

See Also
wxTreeItemData

wxPerl Note: wxPerl provides the following shortcut method:

  • GetPlData(item): returns the Perl data associated with the Wx::TreeItemData. It is just the same as tree->GetItemData(item)->GetData().
virtual wxFont wxTreeCtrl::GetItemFont ( const wxTreeItemId item) const
virtual

Returns the font of the item label.

If the font hadn't been explicitly set for the specified item with SetItemFont(), returns an invalid wxNullFont font. GetFont() can be used to retrieve the global tree control font used for the items without any specific font.

virtual int wxTreeCtrl::GetItemImage ( const wxTreeItemId item,
wxTreeItemIcon  which = wxTreeItemIcon_Normal 
) const
virtual

Gets the specified item image.

The value of which may be:

  • wxTreeItemIcon_Normal: to get the normal item image.
  • wxTreeItemIcon_Selected: to get the selected item image (i.e. the image which is shown when the item is currently selected).
  • wxTreeItemIcon_Expanded: to get the expanded image (this only makes sense for items which have children - then this image is shown when the item is expanded and the normal image is shown when it is collapsed).
  • wxTreeItemIcon_SelectedExpanded: to get the selected expanded image (which is shown when an expanded item is currently selected).
virtual wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::GetItemParent ( const wxTreeItemId item) const

virtual wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::GetNextChild ( const wxTreeItemId item,
wxTreeItemIdValue &  cookie 
) const
virtual

Returns the next child; call GetFirstChild() for the first child.

For this enumeration function you must pass in a 'cookie' parameter which is opaque for the application but is necessary for the library to make these functions reentrant (i.e. allow more than one enumeration on one and the same object simultaneously). The cookie passed to GetFirstChild() and GetNextChild() should be the same.

Returns an invalid tree item if there are no further children.

wxPerl Note: In wxPerl this method returns a 2-element list (item, cookie) instead of modifying its parameters.

See Also
GetFirstChild()
virtual wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::GetNextSibling ( const wxTreeItemId item) const
virtual

Returns the next sibling of the specified item; call GetPrevSibling() for the previous sibling.

Returns an invalid tree item if there are no further siblings.

The default is false.

See Also
SetQuickBestSize()
virtual wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::GetRootItem ( ) const
virtual

Returns the root item for the tree control.

virtual wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::GetSelection ( ) const
virtual

Returns the selection, or an invalid item if there is no selection.

This function only works with the controls without wxTR_MULTIPLE style, use GetSelections() for the controls which do have this style or, if a single item is wanted, use GetFocusedItem().

virtual size_t wxTreeCtrl::GetSelections ( wxArrayTreeItemIds &  selection) const
virtual

Fills the array of tree items passed in with the currently selected items.

This function can be called only if the control has the wxTR_MULTIPLE style.

Returns the number of selected items.

wxPerl Note: In wxPerl this method takes no parameters and returns a list of Wx::TreeItemId.

wxImageList* wxTreeCtrl::GetStateImageList ( ) const

Returns the state image list (from which application-defined state images are taken).

wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::HitTest ( const wxPoint point,
int &  flags 
) const

Calculates which (if any) item is under the given point, returning the tree item id at this point plus extra information flags.

flags is a bitlist of the following:

  • wxTREE_HITTEST_ABOVE: Above the client area.
  • wxTREE_HITTEST_BELOW: Below the client area.
  • wxTREE_HITTEST_NOWHERE: In the client area but below the last item.

  • wxTREE_HITTEST_TOLEFT: To the right of the client area.
  • wxTREE_HITTEST_TORIGHT: To the left of the client area.

wxPerl Note: In wxPerl this method only takes the point parameter and returns a 2-element list (item, flags).

wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::InsertItem ( const wxTreeItemId parent,
const wxTreeItemId previous,
const wxString text,
int  image = -1,
int  selImage = -1,
wxTreeItemData data = NULL 
)

Inserts an item after a given one (previous).

The image and selImage parameters are an index within the normal image list specifying the image to use for unselected and selected items, respectively. If image -1 and selImage is -1, the same image is used for both selected and unselected items.

wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::InsertItem ( const wxTreeItemId parent,
size_t  pos,
const wxString text,
int  image = -1,
int  selImage = -1,
wxTreeItemData data = NULL 
)

Inserts an item before one identified by its position (pos).

pos must be less than or equal to the number of children.

The image and selImage parameters are an index within the normal image list specifying the image to use for unselected and selected items, respectively. If image -1 and selImage is -1, the same image is used for both selected and unselected items.

virtual int wxTreeCtrl::OnCompareItems ( const wxTreeItemId item1,
const wxTreeItemId item2 
)
virtual

Override this function in the derived class to change the sort order of the items in the tree control.

The function should return a negative, zero or positive value if the first item is less than, equal to or greater than the second one.

Please note that you must use wxRTTI macros wxDECLARE_DYNAMIC_CLASS() and wxIMPLEMENT_DYNAMIC_CLASS() if you override this function because otherwise the base class considers that it is not overridden and uses the default comparison, i.e. sorts the items alphabetically, which allows it optimize away the calls to the virtual function completely.

See Also
SortChildren()
wxTreeItemId wxTreeCtrl::PrependItem ( const wxTreeItemId parent,
const wxString text,
int  image = -1,
int  selImage = -1,
wxTreeItemData data = NULL 
)

Appends an item as the first child of parent, return a new item id.

The image and selImage parameters are an index within the normal image list specifying the image to use for unselected and selected items, respectively. If image -1 and selImage is -1, the same image is used for both selected and unselected items.

virtual void wxTreeCtrl::ScrollTo ( const wxTreeItemId item)
virtual

Scrolls the specified item into view.

virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SelectChildren ( const wxTreeItemId parent)
virtual

Select all the immediate children of the given parent.

This function can be used with multiselection controls only.

Since
2.9.1
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SelectItem ( const wxTreeItemId item,
bool  select = true 
)
virtual

Selects the given item.

In multiple selection controls, can be also used to deselect a currently selected item if the value of select is false.

Notice that calling this method will generate wxEVT_TREE_SEL_CHANGING and wxEVT_TREE_SEL_CHANGED events and that the change could be vetoed by the former event handler.

void wxTreeCtrl::SetButtonsImageList ( wxImageList imageList)

Sets the buttons image list (from which application-defined button images are taken).

The button images assigned with this method will not be deleted by wxTreeCtrl's destructor, you must delete it yourself. Setting or assigning the button image list enables the display of image buttons. Once enabled, the only way to disable the display of button images is to set the button image list to NULL.

Note
This function is only available in the generic version.
See Also
AssignButtonsImageList().
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SetFocusedItem ( const wxTreeItemId item)
virtual

Sets the currently focused item.

Parameters
itemThe item to make the current one. It must be valid.
Since
2.9.1
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SetImageList ( wxImageList imageList)
virtual

Sets the normal image list.

The image list assigned with this method will not be deleted by wxTreeCtrl's destructor, you must delete it yourself.

See Also
AssignImageList().

virtual

Sets the indentation for the tree control.

virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SetItemBackgroundColour ( const wxTreeItemId item,
const wxColour col 
)
virtual

Sets the colour of the item's background.

virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SetItemBold ( const wxTreeItemId item,

See Also
IsBold()
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SetItemData ( const wxTreeItemId item,
wxTreeItemData data 
)
virtual

Sets the item client data.

Notice that the client data previously associated with the item (if any) is not freed by this function and so calling this function multiple times for the same item will result in memory leaks unless you delete the old item data pointer yourself.

wxPerl Note: wxPerl provides the following shortcut method:

  • SetPlData(item, data): sets the Perl data associated with the Wx::TreeItemData. It is just the same as tree->GetItemData(item)->SetData(data).
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SetItemDropHighlight ( const wxTreeItemId item,
bool  highlight = true 
)
virtual

Gives the item the visual feedback for Drag'n'Drop actions, which is useful if something is dragged from the outside onto the tree control (as opposed to a DnD operation within the tree control, which already is implemented internally).

virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SetItemFont ( const wxTreeItemId item,
const wxFont font 
)
virtual

Sets the item's font.

All items in the tree should have the same height to avoid text clipping, so the fonts height should be the same for all of them, although font attributes may vary.

See Also
SetItemBold()
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SetItemHasChildren ( const wxTreeItemId item,
bool  hasChildren = true 
)
virtual

Force appearance of the button next to the item.

This is useful to allow the user to expand the items which don't have any children now, but instead adding them only when needed, thus minimizing memory usage and loading time.

virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SetItemImage ( const wxTreeItemId item,
int  image,
wxTreeItemIcon  which = wxTreeItemIcon_Normal 
)
virtual

Sets the specified item's image.

See GetItemImage() for the description of the which parameter.

void wxTreeCtrl::SetItemState ( const wxTreeItemId item,
int  state 
)

Sets the specified item state.

The value of state may be:

  • wxTREE_ITEMSTATE_NONE: to disable the item state (the state image will be not displayed).
  • wxTREE_ITEMSTATE_NEXT: to set the next item state.
  • wxTREE_ITEMSTATE_PREV: to set the previous item state.
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SetItemText ( const wxTreeItemId item,
const wxString text 
)
virtual

Sets the item label.

virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SetItemTextColour ( const wxTreeItemId item,
const wxColour col 
)
virtual

Sets the colour of the item's text.

void wxTreeCtrl::SetQuickBestSize ( bool  quickBestSize)

If true is passed, specifies that the control will use a quick calculation for the best size, looking only at the first and last items.

Otherwise, it will look at all items. The default is false.

See Also
GetQuickBestSize()
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SetStateImageList ( wxImageList imageList)
virtual

Sets the state image list (from which application-defined state images are taken).

Image list assigned with this method will not be deleted by wxTreeCtrl's destructor, you must delete it yourself.

See Also
AssignStateImageList().
void wxTreeCtrl::SetWindowStyle ( long  styles)

Sets the mode flags associated with the display of the tree control.

The new mode takes effect immediately.

Note
Generic only; MSW ignores changes.
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::SortChildren ( const wxTreeItemId item)
virtual

Sorts the children of the given item using OnCompareItems().

You should override that method to change the sort order (the default is ascending case-sensitive alphabetical order).

See Also
wxTreeItemData, OnCompareItems()
virtual void wxTreeCtrl::Toggle ( const wxTreeItemId item)
virtual

Toggles the given item between collapsed and expanded states.

void wxTreeCtrl::ToggleItemSelection ( const wxTreeItemId item)

Toggles the given item between selected and unselected states.

For multiselection controls only.

virtual void wxTreeCtrl::Unselect ( )
virtual

Removes the selection from the currently selected item (if any).

virtual void wxTreeCtrl::UnselectAll ( )
virtual

This function either behaves the same as Unselect() if the control doesn't have wxTR_MULTIPLE style, or removes the selection from all items if it does have this style.

void wxTreeCtrl::UnselectItem ( const wxTreeItemId item)

Unselects the given item.

This works in multiselection controls only.
