1.186.2 Send methods

window_decorator ->displayed: bool

Refines graphical->displayed, ensuring that both the decorated window and the decorator have consistent graphical<-displayed.

window_decorator ->geometry: x=[int], y=[int], width=[int], height=[int]

Calls window->geometry, followed by window_decorator->rearrange to update the layout.

window_decorator ->horizontal_scrollbar: bool

Inherits description from: window_decorator-horizontal_scrollbar

window_decorator ->initialise: window=window, scrollbars=[{none,vertical,horizontal,both}], label=[char_array]

Create a decoration for the given window. The optional arguments specify the scrollbars and label of the window.

Window decorators are normally created by PCE itself by invoking window_decorator->scrollbars and/or label to the window to be decorated. See also window->catch_all, window->decorate and window<-decoration.

window_decorator ->label: format=char_array*, argument=any ...

Define a window-level (opposed to frame<->label) label for the window. The label is visualised by window_decorator<-label_text using the font pce.WindowDecorator.label_font.

window_decorator<-label returns the text<-string of the window_decorator<-label_text or fails if window_decorator<-label_text yields @nil.

window_decorator ->rearrange:

Rearrange window_decorator<-window, window_decorator<-scrollbars and window_decorator<-label_text. The default method places the label_text at the top-left corner and the scrollbars according to the scroll_bar.placement.

This method is normally called by window_decorator->geometry and may be redefined to achieve different window layouts.

window_decorator ->request_geometry: x=[int], y=[int], width=[int], height=[int]

Handle a geometry request. It will enlarge the requested values by the space needed for the decorations and call window_decorator->geometry with the enlarged size.

window_decorator ->scrollbars: {none,horizontal,vertical,both}

Translates the requested scrollbars in calls to window_decorator->horizontal_scrollbar and window_decorator->vertical_scrollbar.

window_decorator ->unlink:

Make sure the window_decorator<-window is destroyed too.

window_decorator ->vertical_scrollbar: bool

Associate or remove the vertical scroll_bar object of this window.
