phoenix_title wx.html.HtmlCell

Internal data structure.

It represents fragments of parsed HTML page, the so-called cell - a word, picture, table, horizontal line and so on. It is used by wx.html.HtmlWindow and wx.html.HtmlWinParser to represent HTML page in memory.

You can divide cells into two groups : visible cells with non-zero width and height and helper cells (usually with zero width and height) that perform special actions such as color or font change.

class wx.html.HtmlCell(Object)

Possible constructors:

HtmlCell()

Internal data structure.


Methods

__init__(self)

Constructor.



AdjustPagebreak(self, pagebreak, pageHeight)

This method is called when paginating HTML, e.g. when printing.

User code should never call this function, but may need to override it in custom HTML cell classes with any specific page breaking requirements.

On input, pagebreak contains y-coordinate of page break (i.e. the horizontal line that should not be crossed by words, images etc.) relative to the parent cell on entry and may be modified to request a page break at a position before it if this cell cannot be divided into two pieces (each one on its own page).

Note that page break must still happen on the current page, i.e. the returned value must be strictly greater than:

ret_value, kp = container.AdjustPagebreak(p, kp, ph)
while ret_value:
    ret_value, kp = container.AdjustPagebreak(p, kp, ph)

and less or equal to *pagebreak for the value of pagebreak on input.

Parameters
  • pagebreak (int) – position in pixels of the pagebreak.

  • pageHeight (int) – the height in pixels of the page drawable area

Return type

tuple

Returns

( bool, pagebreak )



ConvertToText(self, sel)

Converts the cell into text representation.

If sel != None then only part of the cell inside the selection is converted.

Parameters

sel (wx.html.HtmlSelection) –

Return type

string



Draw(self, dc, x, y, view_y1, view_y2, info)

Renders the cell.

Parameters
  • dc (wx.DC) – Device context to which the cell is to be drawn.

  • x (int) –

  • y (int) – Coordinates of parent’s upper left corner (origin). You must add this to m_PosX,m_PosY when passing coordinates to dc’s methods Example:

    dc.DrawText(“hello”, x + cell.PosX, y + cell.PosY)

  • view_y1 (int) – y-coord of the first line visible in window. This is used to optimize rendering speed.

  • view_y2 (int) – y-coord of the last line visible in window. This is used to optimize rendering speed.

  • info (wx.html.HtmlRenderingInfo) – Additional information for the rendering of the cell.



DrawInvisible(self, dc, x, y, info)

This method is called instead of Draw when the cell is certainly out of the screen (and thus invisible).

This is not nonsense - some tags (like wx.html.HtmlColourCell or font setter) must be drawn even if they are invisible!

Parameters
  • dc (wx.DC) – Device context to which the cell is to be drawn.

  • x (int) –

  • y (int) – Coordinates of parent’s upper left corner. You must add this to m_PosX,m_PosY when passing coordinates to dc’s methods Example:

    dc.DrawText(“hello”, x + cell.PosX, y + cell.PosY)

  • info (wx.html.HtmlRenderingInfo) – Additional information for the rendering of the cell.



Find(self, condition, param)

Returns pointer to itself if this cell matches condition (or if any of the cells following in the list matches), None otherwise.

(In other words if you call top-level container’s Find it will return pointer to the first cell that matches the condition)

It is recommended way how to obtain pointer to particular cell or to cell of some type (e.g. HtmlAnchorCell reacts on wx.html.HTML_COND_ISANCHOR condition).

Parameters
  • condition (int) – Unique integer identifier of condition

  • param (string) – Optional parameters

Return type

wx.html.HtmlCell



FindCellByPos(self, x, y, flags=HTML_FIND_EXACT)

Find a cell inside this cell positioned at the given coordinates (relative to this’s positions).

Returns None if no such cell exists. The flag can be used to specify whether to look for terminal or nonterminal cells or both. In either case, returned cell is deepest cell in cells tree that contains [x,y].

Parameters
  • x (int) –

  • y (int) –

  • flags

Return type

wx.html.HtmlCell



GetAbsPos(self, rootCell=None)
Parameters

rootCell (wx.html.HtmlCell) –

Return type

Point



GetDescent(self)

Returns descent value of the cell (m_Descent member).

See explanation:

_staticimagesoverviewshtmlcell_descent.png

Return type

int



GetFirstChild(self)

Returns pointer to the first cell in the list.

You can then use child’s GetNext method to obtain pointer to the next cell in list.

Return type

wx.html.HtmlCell

Note

This shouldn’t be used by the end user. If you need some way of finding particular cell in the list, try Find method instead.



GetHeight(self)

Returns height of the cell (m_Height member).

Return type

int



GetId(self)

Returns unique cell identifier if there is any, the empty string otherwise.

Return type

string



Returns hypertext link if associated with this cell or None otherwise.

See wx.html.HtmlLinkInfo. (Note: this makes sense only for visible tags).

Parameters
  • x (int) –

  • y (int) – Coordinates of position where the user pressed mouse button. These coordinates are used e.g. by COLORMAP. Values are relative to the upper left corner of THIS cell (i.e. from 0 to m_Width or m_Height)

Return type

wx.html.HtmlLinkInfo



GetMouseCursor(self, window)

Returns cursor to show when mouse pointer is over the cell.

Parameters

window (wx.html.HtmlWindowInterface) – interface to the parent HTML window

Return type

Cursor

See also

GetMouseCursorAt



GetMouseCursorAt(self, window, rePos)

Returns cursor to show when mouse pointer is over the specified point.

This function should be overridden instead of GetMouseCursorAt if the cursor should depend on the exact position of the mouse in the window.

Parameters
Return type

Cursor

New in version 3.0.



GetNext(self)

Returns pointer to the next cell in list (see htmlcell.h if you’re interested in details).

Return type

wx.html.HtmlCell



GetParent(self)

Returns pointer to parent container.

Return type

wx.html.HtmlContainerCell



GetPosX(self)

Returns X position within parent (the value is relative to parent’s upper left corner).

The returned value is meaningful only if parent’s Layout was called before!

Return type

int



GetPosY(self)

Returns Y position within parent (the value is relative to parent’s upper left corner).

The returned value is meaningful only if parent’s Layout was called before!

Return type

int



GetRootCell(self)
Return type

wx.html.HtmlCell



GetWidth(self)

Returns width of the cell (m_Width member).

Return type

int



Layout(self, w)

Layouts the cell.

This method performs two actions:

  • adjusts the cell’s width according to the fact that maximal possible width is w (this has sense when working with horizontal lines, tables etc.)

  • prepares layout (=fill-in m_PosX, m_PosY (and sometimes m_Height) members) based on actual width w

It must be called before displaying cells structure because m_PosX and m_PosY are undefined (or invalid) before calling Layout .

Parameters

w (int) –



ProcessMouseClick(self, window, pos, event)

This function is simple event handler.

Each time the user clicks mouse button over a cell within wx.html.HtmlWindow this method of that cell is called. Default behaviour is to call wx.html.HtmlWindow.LoadPage .

Parameters
Return type

bool

Returns

True if a link was clicked, False otherwise.

New in version 2.7.0: (before OnMouseClick() method served a similar purpose).

Note

If you need more “advanced” event handling you should use HtmlBinderCell instead.



SetId(self, id)

Sets unique cell identifier.

Default value is no identifier, i.e. empty string.

Parameters

id (string) –



Sets the hypertext link associated with this cell.

(Default value is :ref:`wx.html.HtmlLinkInfo`(“”, “”) (no link))

Parameters

link (wx.html.HtmlLinkInfo) –



SetNext(self, cell)

Sets the next cell in the list.

This shouldn’t be called by user - it is to be used only by wx.html.HtmlContainerCell.InsertCell .

Parameters

cell (wx.html.HtmlCell) –



SetParent(self, p)

Sets parent container of this cell.

This is called from wx.html.HtmlContainerCell.InsertCell .

Parameters

p (wx.html.HtmlContainerCell) –



SetPos(self, x, y)

Sets the cell’s position within parent container.

Parameters
  • x (int) –

  • y (int) –
