DrawableList

A container able to display many items using only a few drawables. This is done by only having drawables for visible items, and populating these drawables with new content when each of these become visible.

This means that all drawables must have an identical structure in some way, for example an Image or a Container with a button and a text.

Public Functions Documentation

DrawableList

getCircular

virtual bool getCircular()const

Gets the circular setting, previously set using setCircular().

Returns:

True if the list is circular (infinite), false if the list is not circular (finite).

See also:

getDrawableIndex

int16_t getDrawableIndex(int16_titemIndex ,const
int16_tprevDrawableIndex =-1const
)const

Gets the drawable index of an item.

If the number of items is smaller than the number of drawables and the DrawableList is circular, the same item can be in more than one drawable. In that case, calling this function again with the previously returned index as second parameter, the index of the next drawable containing the item will be returned.

Parameters:
itemIndexIndex of the item.
prevDrawableIndex(Optional) Index of the previous drawable. If given, search starts after this index.
Returns:

The first drawable index with the given item. Returns -1 if the item is not in a drawable.

See also:

getDrawableIndices

int16_t getDrawableIndices(int16_titemIndex ,const
int16_t *drawableIndexArray ,const
int16_tarraySizeconst
)const

Gets drawable indices.

Useful when the number of items is smaller than the number of drawables as the same item might be in more than one drawable on the screen (if the DrawableList is circular). The passed array will be filled with the drawable indices and the number of indices found is returned.

Parameters:
itemIndexZero-based index of the item.
drawableIndexArrayArray where the drawable indices are stored.
arraySizeSize of drawable array.
Returns:

The number of drawable indices found.

See also:

getDrawableMargin

virtual int16_t getDrawableMargin()const

Gets drawable margin.

Gets drawable margin as set by setDrawables.

Returns:

The drawable margin.

getDrawableSize

virtual int16_t getDrawableSize()const

Gets drawable size as set by setDrawables.

Returns:

The drawable size.

See also:

getHorizontal

virtual bool getHorizontal()const

Gets the orientation of the drawables, previously set using setHorizontal().

Returns:

True if it horizontal, false if it is vertical.

See also:

getItemIndex

int16_t getItemIndex(int16_tdrawableIndex)

Gets item stored in a given Drawable.

Parameters:
drawableIndexZero-based index of the drawable.
Returns:

The item index.

getItemSize

virtual int16_t getItemSize()const

Gets size of each item.

This equals the drawable size plus the drawable margin as set in setDrawables(). Equals getDrawableSize() + 2 * getDrawableMargin().

Returns:

The item size.

Note

Not the same as getDrawableSize().

See also:

getNumberOfDrawables

int16_t getNumberOfDrawables()const

Gets number of drawables based on the size of each item and the size of the widget.

Returns:

The number of drawables.

See also:

getNumberOfItems

int16_t getNumberOfItems()const

Gets number of items in the DrawableList, as previously set using setNumberOfItems().

Returns:

The number of items.

See also:

getOffset

int32_t getOffset()const

Gets offset, as previously set using setOffset().

Returns:

The virtual offset.

See also:

getRequiredNumberOfDrawables

Gets required number of drawables.

After setting up the DrawableList it is possible to request how many drawables are needed to ensure that the list can always be drawn properly. If the DrawableList has been setup with fewer Drawables than the required number of drawables, part of the lower part of the DrawableList will look wrong.

The number of required drawables depend on the size of the widget and the size of the drawables and the margin around drawables. If there are fewer drawables than required, the widget will not display correctly. If there are more drawables than required, some will be left unused.

Returns:

The required number of drawables.

See also:

itemChanged

void itemChanged(int16_titemIndex)

Item changed.

Item changed and drawables containing this item must be updated. This function can be called when an item has changed and needs to be updated on screen. If the given item is displayed on screen, possible more than once for cyclic lists, each drawable is request to refresh its content to reflect the new value.

Parameters:
itemIndexZero-based index of the item.

refreshDrawables

Refresh drawables.

Useful to call if the number or items, their size or other properties have changed.

setCircular

virtual void setCircular(boolcircular)

Sets whether the list is circular (infinite) or not.

A circular list is a list where the first drawable re-appears after the last item in the list - and the last item in the list appears before the first item in the list.

Parameters:
circularTrue if the list should be circular, false if the list should not be circular.
See also:

setDrawables

virtual void setDrawables(DrawableListItemsInterface &drawableListItems ,
int16_tdrawableItemIndexOffset ,
GenericCallback< DrawableListItemsInterface *, int16_t, int16_t > &updateDrawableCallback
)

Sets the drawables parameters.

These parameters are

  • The access class to the array of drawables
  • The offset in the drawableListItems array to start using drawable and
  • Callback to update the contents of a drawable.
Parameters:
drawableListItemsNumber of drawables allocated.
drawableItemIndexOffsetThe offset of the drawable item.
updateDrawableCallbackA callback to update the contents of a drawable.
See also:

setDrawableSize

void setDrawableSize(int16_tdrawableSize ,
int16_tdrawableMargin
)

Sets drawables size.

The drawable is is the size of each drawable in the list in the set direction of the list (this is enforced by the DrawableList class). The specified margin is added above and below each item for spacing. The entire size of an item is thus size + 2 * spacing.

For a horizontal list each element will be drawableSize high and have the same width as set using setWidth(). For a vertical list each element will be drawableSize wide and have the same height as set using setHeight().

Parameters:
drawableSizeThe size of the drawable.
drawableMarginThe margin around drawables (margin before and margin after).
See also:

setHeight

virtual void setHeight(int16_theight)

Sets the height of this drawable.

Parameters:
heightThe new height.
Note

For most Drawable widgets, changing this does normally not automatically yield a redraw.If the list is horizontal, the height is also propagated to all drawables in the list.

Reimplements: touchgfx::Drawable::setHeight

setHorizontal

virtual void setHorizontal(boolhorizontal)

Sets a horizontal or vertical layout.

If parameter horizontal is set true, all drawables are arranged side by side. If horizontal is set false, the drawables are arranged above and below each other (vertically).

Parameters:
horizontalTrue to align drawables horizontal, false to align drawables vertically.
Note

Default value is false, i.e. vertical layout.

See also:

setNumberOfItems

void setNumberOfItems(int16_tnumberOfItems)

Sets number of items in the list.

This forces all drawables to be updated to ensure that the content is correct.

Parameters:
numberOfItemsNumber of items.
Note

The DrawableList is refreshed to reflect the change.

setOffset

void setOffset(int32_tofs)

Sets virtual coordinate.

Does not move to the given coordinate, but places the drawables and fill correct content into the drawables to give the impression that everything has been scrolled to the given coordinate.

Setting a value of 0 means that item 0 is at the start of the DrawableList. Setting a value of "-getItemSize()" places item 0 outside the start of the DrawableList and item 1 at the start of it.

Items that are completely outside of view, will be updated with new content using the provided callback from setDrawables(). Care is taken to not fill drawables more than strictly required.

Parameters:
ofsThe virtual coordinate.
See also:

setWidth

virtual void setWidth(int16_twidth)

Sets the width of this drawable.

Parameters:
widthThe new width.
Note

For most Drawable widgets, changing this does normally not automatically yield a redraw.If the list is vertical, the width is also propagated to all drawables in the list.

Reimplements: touchgfx::Drawable::setWidth
