Class API¶

class wx.dataview.DataViewEvent(NotifyEvent)¶

Possible constructors:

DataViewEvent(commandType=wxEVT_NULL, winid=0)

This is the event class for the DataViewCtrl notifications.

Methods¶

__init__(self, commandType=wxEVT_NULL, winid=0)¶

Constructor.

Typically used by wxWidgets internals only.

Parameters

commandType (wx.EventType) –
winid (int) –

GetCacheFrom(self)¶

Return the first row that will be displayed.

Return type: int

GetCacheTo(self)¶

Return the last row that will be displayed.

Return type: int

GetColumn(self)¶

Returns the position of the column in the control or -1 if no column field was set by the event emitter.

Return type: int

GetDataBuffer(self)¶

Gets the data buffer for a drop data transfer

Return type: PyObject

GetDataFormat(self)¶

Gets the wx.DataFormat during a drop operation.

Return type: DataFormat

GetDataObject(self)¶

Return type: DataObject

GetDataSize(self)¶

Gets the data size for a drop data transfer.

Return type: int

GetDataViewColumn(self)¶

Returns a pointer to the wx.dataview.DataViewColumn from which the event was emitted or None.

Return type: wx.dataview.DataViewColumn

GetDragFlags(self)¶

Return type: int

GetDropEffect(self)¶

Returns the effect the user requested to happen to the dropped data.

This function can be used inside wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_DROP_POSSIBLE and wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_DROP handlers and returns whether the user is trying to copy (the return value is wx.DragCopy ) or move (if the return value is wx.DragMove ) the data.

Currently this is only available when using the generic version of wx.dataview.DataViewCtrl (used e.g. under MSW) and always returns wx.DragNone in the GTK and OS X native versions.

Return type: wx.DragResult

New in version 2.9.4.

GetItem(self)¶

Return type: wx.dataview.DataViewItem

GetModel(self)¶

Returns the wx.dataview.DataViewModel associated with the event.

Return type: wx.dataview.DataViewModel

GetPosition(self)¶

Returns the position of a context menu event in screen coordinates.

Return type: Point

GetValue(self)¶

Returns a reference to a value.

Return type: DVCVariant

IsEditCancelled(self)¶

Can be used to determine whether the new value is going to be accepted in wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_EDITING_DONE handler.

Returns True if editing the item was cancelled or if the user tried to enter an invalid value (refused by wx.dataview.DataViewRenderer.Validate ). If this method returns False, it means that the value in the model is about to be changed to the new one.

Notice that wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_EDITING_DONE event handler can call wx.NotifyEvent.Veto to prevent this from happening.

Currently support for setting this field and for vetoing the change is only available in the generic version of wx.dataview.DataViewCtrl, i.e. under MSW but not GTK nor OS X.

Return type: bool

New in version 2.9.3.

SetCache(self, from_, to_)¶

Parameters

from_ (int) –
to_ (int) –

SetColumn(self, col)¶

Sets the column index associated with this event.

Parameters: col (int) –

SetDataBuffer(self, buf)¶

Parameters: buf –

SetDataFormat(self, format)¶

Parameters: format (wx.DataFormat) –

SetDataObject(self, obj)¶

Set wx.DataObject for data transfer within a drag operation.

Parameters: obj (wx.DataObject) –

SetDataSize(self, size)¶

Parameters: size (int) –

SetDataViewColumn(self, col)¶

For wxEVT_DATAVIEW_COLUMN_HEADER_CLICK only.

Parameters: col (wx.dataview.DataViewColumn) –

SetDragFlags(self, flags)¶

Specify the kind of the drag operation to perform.

This method can be used inside a wxEVT_DATAVIEW_ITEM_BEGIN_DRAG handler in order to configure the drag operation. Valid values are wx.Drag_CopyOnly (default), wx.Drag_AllowMove (allow the data to be moved) and wx.Drag_DefaultMove .

Currently it is only honoured by the generic version of wx.dataview.DataViewCtrl (used e.g. under MSW) and not supported by the native GTK and OS X versions.

Parameters: flags (int) –
