These methods do the same thing, so it seems better to use the same name
for them.
This is not really a backwards-incompatible change, as these methods
were just added in the parent commit, so nobody is using them yet.
Completely overhauled selection handling in wxGrid.
Make various ways of extending selection (using Shift-arrow keys,
Ctrl-Shift-arrows, Shift-click etc) work as expected from the user point
of view instead of producing various bizarre results. Also improve
row/column header click selection as well as Ctrl/Shift-Space handling.
Internally, store selection as just a vector of blocks, independently of
the selection mode, and provide a simple API for iterating over it which
remains usable even with selections containing millions of cells (as
long as they're still composed of only a few blocks, which is the case
in practice).
Add more tests and add display of the current selection to the sample.
See https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/1772
Unselected current cell should always be considered as the current
selection block to extend, as it doesn't make sense to extend any other
block (perhaps selected on another side of the grid) when pressing
Shift-arrow.
This scenario could be achieved by selecting a block and Ctrl-clicking a
cell (either inside or outside the selection) twice and then extending
it using Shift-arrow keys. Previously, this behaved in a strange way,
combining the corner of the selected block with the target of the
movement, whereas now this just starts selecting a new block from the
current cell as expected.
Also make Page Up/Down themselves work consistently with the other
cursor movement keys and clear current selection if they move the
cursor.
Even though DoMoveCursorByPage() is simpler than DoMoveCursorByBlock(),
still factor out AdvanceByPage() for consistency with AdvanceByBlock()
and because it still makes the code more clear.
Extending the selection with Ctrl-arrows is different from all the other
cases, as we need to combine both the selection anchor and the current
cell coordinates when doing it.
This means that we can't reuse the same PrepareForSelectionExpansion()
helper for this case, so this function is not useful finally and this
commit removes it entirely. It also replaces GetCurrentBlockCornerRow()
and GetCurrentBlockCornerCol() functions with GetExtensionAnchor() which
combines both of them.
Finally, it adds wxGridDirectionOperations::TryToAdvance() helper to
avoid repeating the IsAtBoundary() check which was previously part of
PrepareForSelectionExpansion() in multiple places.
And because the "extending" and normal parts of DoMoveCursorByBlock()
are so different now, it also factors out AdvanceByBlock() helper which
can be used to keep these parts well separate from each other instead of
intermixing them together.
With all these preparatory changes, it's finally possible to implement
the "extending selection by block" logic relatively easily, with the
bulk of this branch actually taken by comments explaining why do we have
to do what we do.
Add unit tests verifying that the functions used by Shift-Ctrl-arrow
work as expected.
This function finally doesn't ever create a new block, except for the
trivial case when there is no current block, so rename it to a simpler
and more clear name.
No real changes.
This seems to be more consistent with the existing functions and doesn't
create ambiguity with a grid range.
Also rename wxGridSelectionRange to just wxGridBlocks as, in principle,
this class could be used for iterating over any blocks, not just the
selected ones.
No changes in functionality, this is just a renaming.
Extend the current block to the entire line when the corresponding
header is Shift-clicked and, importantly, keep the full-line selection
when using Shift-arrows later to make the selection behave in the
expected way.
This made the logic of this function unnecessarily more complicated.
Instead, just fall back to the current cell coordinates in the only
place where this could happen before.
Doing this still preserves the correct behaviour of Shift-arrow
selection when entire rows/columns are selected and the current cell is
not the leftmost/topmost cell (due to scrolling), but the code is
simpler.
Remove the now always true condition check and assert that it's indeed
always true.
Note that the changes to gridsel.cpp in this commit are best viewed
ignoring whitespace changes.
The difference between calling SelectAll() and SelectBlock() with a
block covering the entire grid is that the former discards any
previously selected blocks, which become clearly redundant.
As a consequence, clicking on the grid corner 10 times in a row still
results in a selection with a single block, not 10 (identical) blocks.
Expanding the selection from keyboard with Ctrl pressed should move in
the same way Ctrl-cursor does, but use the same selection anchor as
Shift-cursor does instead of always using the current cell.
This makes the expansion work much more intuitively in the grid, e.g.
pressing Shift-Ctrl-Down in
1 2
3 4
grid when 1 and 2 are selected now selects all the cells instead of
selecting 1 and 3 as it did before.
API of wxAnimationCtrlBase practically forces the derived classes to
have such method, so just add it and make GetAnimation() a simple
non-virtual accessor.
Simplify and streamline animation classes relationship: wxAnimation is
the only public class representing an animation and it can be created by
both the native wxAnimationCtrl and wxGenericAnimationCtrl using the new
public CreateAnimation() method.
Replace wxAnimationImplType enum with more flexible type info based
check.
This is just unnecessary and having wxAnimation::m_refData->m_refData is
confusing, both in wxGTK version where it's not used and in the generic
one where it is, but can be replaced by more type-safe m_decoder.
Switch from using just "bool expandSelection" in the grid functions
(possibly) extending the current selection to using the full
wxKeyboardState.
This allows to pass it to ExtendOrCreateCurrentBlock() and slightly
simplify the code by using DoMoveCursorFromKeyboard().
Change the return type of this function to a simple and clear bool
instead of 3-valued int requiring a special explanation. This is simpler
and not any less efficient as checking for whether one block contains
another or the other one contains this one are separate operations
anyhow.
Rename the function to a more grammatically correct name.
Also move it inline as it's now trivial enough for this to be worth it.
This class was a strange hybrid of a container/view/range and iterator,
as it both provided begin()/end() container-like methods and
iterator-like methods for dereferencing/advancing.
Simplify this by removing the latter part and making this class really
just a range, with its own iterator class in order to avoid leaking the
exact type of the iterator used in the API.
Note that while it's now completely trivial, it is still useful as it
isolates the application code from the vector used to store the selected
blocks currently and will allow to change internal representation in the
future without breaking the existing code.
Really edit the current selection block instead of storing the temporary
information about the current selection and applying it on releasing Shift
key or LKM.
Store all types of selection with an array of blocks instead of arrays of
cells, blocks, rows and columns.
It (hopefully) simplifies the code and allows us to implement editing of
the last selection block much easier.
This handler redoes wxGrid layout and refreshes it to at least avoid
ugly display artifacts when moving wxGrid window between displays with
different DPI.
In particular, this makes default column width better suited for high
DPI displays, as it was too narrow before.
Also mark a couple of obsolete constants as such with a comment.
In many case SetTable() is called with its takeOwnership parameter set
to true, as shown by the grid sample in which all 3 of the calls to
SetTable() set it to true, but calling it in this case is awkward, as
bare "true" in the caller is unreadable and almost invariably requires
an explanatory comment.
Improve the API by adding AssignTable(), which is the same to SetTable()
as the existing AssignImageList() to SetImageLabel(), which always takes
ownership of the table pointer.
