Detailed Description

A WPanel provides a container with a title bar.

The panel provides a container with an optional title bar, and an optional collapse icon.

Usage example:

auto panel = std::make_unique<Wt::WPanel>();
panel->setTitle("A panel");
panel->setCentralWidget(std::make_unique<Wt::WText>("This is the panel contents"));
panel->setCollapsible(true);
Two panels: one collapsed and one expanded (default theme)
Two panels: one collapsed and one expanded (polished theme)

Member Function Documentation

◆ centralWidget()

WWidget* Wt::WPanel::centralWidget ( ) const

Returns the central widget.

See also
setCentralWidget()

◆ collapse()

void Wt::WPanel::collapse ( )

Collapses the panel.

When isCollapsible() is true, the panel is collapsed to minimize screen real-estate.

See also
setCollapsible(bool), expand()
Note
It is possible to make a WPanel collapsible with WBootstrap5Theme, but collapsing and expanding from C++, and the accompanying signals is not supported.

◆ collapsed()

Signal& Wt::WPanel::collapsed ( )

Signal emitted when the panel is collapsed.

Signal emitted when the panel is collapsed. The signal is only emitted when the panel is collapsed by the user using the collapse icon in the tible bar, not when calling setCollapsed(bool).

See also
expanded()
Note
It is possible to make a WPanel collapsible with WBootstrap5Theme, but it's not possible to set the animation.

◆ enableAjax()

void Wt::WPanel::enableAjax ( )
overrideprotectedvirtual

Progresses to an Ajax-enabled widget.

This method is called when the progressive bootstrap method is used, and support for AJAX has been detected. The default behavior will upgrade the widget's event handling to use AJAX instead of full page reloads, and propagate the call to its children.

You may want to reimplement this method if you want to make changes to widget when AJAX is enabled. You should always call the base implementation.

See also
WApplication::enableAjax()

Reimplemented from Wt::WCompositeWidget.

◆ expand()

void Wt::WPanel::expand ( )

Collapses the panel.

When isCollapsible() is true, the panel is expanded to its original state.

See also
setCollapsible(bool), expand()
Note
It is possible to make a WPanel collapsible with WBootstrap5Theme, but collapsing and expanding from C++, and the accompanying signals is not supported.

◆ expanded()

Signal& Wt::WPanel::expanded ( )

Signal emitted when the panel is expanded.

Signal emitted when the panel is expanded. The signal is only emitted when the panel is expanded by the user using the expand icon in the title bar, not when calling setCollapsed(bool).

See also
collapsed()
Note
It is possible to make a WPanel collapsible with WBootstrap5Theme, but it's not possible to set the animation.

◆ isCollapsed()

bool Wt::WPanel::isCollapsed ( ) const

Returns if the panel is collapsed.

See also
setCollapsed(bool)
collapsed(), expanded()
Note
It is possible to make a WPanel collapsible with WBootstrap5Theme, but collapsing and expanding from C++, and the accompanying signals is not supported.

◆ isCollapsible()

bool Wt::WPanel::isCollapsible ( ) const

Returns if the panel can be collapsed by the user.

See also
setCollapsible(bool)

◆ setAnimation()

void Wt::WPanel::setAnimation ( const WAnimation transition)

Sets an animation.

The animation is used when collapsing or expanding the panel.

Note
It is possible to make a WPanel collapsible with WBootstrap5Theme, but it's not possible to set the animation.

◆ setCentralWidget()

void Wt::WPanel::setCentralWidget ( std::unique_ptr< WWidget widget)

Sets the central widget.

Sets the widget that is the contents of the panel.

The default value is 0 (no widget set).

◆ setCollapsed()

void Wt::WPanel::setCollapsed ( bool  on)

Sets the panel expanded or collapsed.

When on is true, equivalent to collapse(), otherwise to expand().

The default value is false.

If the panel is collapsed, the Wt-collapsed style class is added.

See also
setCollapsible(bool)
Note
It is possible to make a WPanel collapsible with WBootstrap5Theme, but collapsing and expanding from C++, and the accompanying signals is not supported.

◆ setCollapsible()

void Wt::WPanel::setCollapsible ( bool  on)

Makes the panel collapsible.

When on is true, a collapse/expand icon is added to the title bar. This also calls setTitleBar(true) to enable the title bar.

Additionally, the Wt-collapsible class is added to the panel.

The default value is false.

See also
setTitleBar(bool), setCollapsed(bool), isCollapsed()

◆ setTitle()

void Wt::WPanel::setTitle ( const WString title)

Sets a title.

The panel title is set in the title bar. This method also makes the title bar visible by calling setTitleBar(true).

The default value is "" (no title).

See also
title(), setTitleBar(bool)

◆ setTitleBar()

void Wt::WPanel::setTitleBar ( bool  enable)

Shows or hides the title bar for the panel.

The title bar appears at the top of the panel.

The default value is false: the title bar is not shown unless a title is set or the panel is made collapsible.

If the title bar is hidden, the panel is automatically made non-collapsible, and expands if it was collapsed.

See also
setTitle(const WString&), setCollapsible(bool)

◆ title()

WString Wt::WPanel::title ( ) const

Returns the title.

See also
setTitle(const WString&)

◆ titleBar()

bool Wt::WPanel::titleBar ( ) const

Returns if a title bar is set.

See also
setTitleBar(bool)

◆ titleBarWidget()

WContainerWidget * Wt::WPanel::titleBarWidget ( ) const

Returns the title bar widget.

The title bar widget contains the collapse/expand icon (if the panel isCollapsible()), and the title text (if a title was set using setTitle()). You can access the title bar widget to customize the contents of the title.

The method returns 0 if titleBar() is false. You need to call setTitleBar() first.
