pane-adjusted-offset

Generic Function
Summary

The pane-adjusted-offset generic function calculates the offset required to place a pane correctly in a layout.

Signature

pane-adjusted-offset pane adjust available-size actual-size
&key &allow-other-keys

Description

This function calculates the offset required by the adjust keyword so that the pane pane is placed correctly within the available space in its parent layout. It is called by all of the layouts that inherit from x-y-adjustable-layout to interpret the values of x-adjust and y-adjust . Typically the value of adjust will be one of:

:top

Place pane at the top of the region.

:bottom

Place pane at the bottom of the region.

:left

Place pane at the left of the region.

:right

Place pane at the right of the region.

:center

Place pane in the center of the region.

However, new methods can accept alternative values for adjust where required and can also add extra keywords. For example, grid-layout allows adjust to be a list of adjust values, and then passes the offset into this list as an additional keyword.

Example
(setq button-panel (make-instance 'capi:button-panel
                                  :items '(1 2 3)))
(capi:pane-adjusted-offset button-panel
                           :center 200 100)
(capi:pane-adjusted-offset button-panel
                           :left 200 100)
(capi:pane-adjusted-offset button-panel
                           :right 200 100)
