xtd::forms::image_list Class Reference

#include <image_list.h>

Definition

Provides methods to manage a collection of xtd::drawing::image objects. This class cannot be inherited.

Namespace

xtd::forms

Library

xtd.forms

Remarks

image_list is typically used by other controls, such as the list_view, tree_view, or tool_bar. You can add bitmaps or icons to the image_list, and the other controls are able to use the images as they require.

image_list uses a handle to manage the list of images. The handle is not created until certain operations, such as getting the handle or calling draw, are performed on the image list. Performing other operations, such as setting the color_depth or image_size will cause the handle to be recreated. Therefore, you should perform these operations before you add images to the image_list.

Examples

The following code example demonstrate the use of image_list class.

#include <xtd/xtd>
 
using namespace xtd;
using namespace xtd::drawing;
using namespace xtd::forms;
 
namespace example {
  class form1 : public form {
  public:
    form1() {
      text("Image list example");
      client_size({300, 250});
      controls().push_back_range({picture, button_previous, button_next});
 
      pictures.image_size({128, 128});
      
      picture.back_color(system_colors::window());
      picture.border_style(forms::border_style::fixed_3d);
      picture.bounds({75, 25, 150, 150});
      picture.size_mode(/picture_box_size_mode::center_image);
      picture.click += [&] {
        load_images();
      };
 
      button_previous.auto_repeat(true);
      button_previous.image(button_images::previous());
      button_previous.location({75, 200});
      button_previous.enabled(false);
      button_previous.click += [&] {
        if (current_image_index > 0) picture.image(/pictures.images()[--current_image_index]);
        button_previous.enabled(current_image_index > 0);
        button_next.enabled(current_image_index < pictures.images().size() - 1);

Member Typedef Documentation

image_collection

using xtd::forms::image_list::image_collection = layout::arranged_element_collection<drawing::image>

Encapsulates the collection of xtd::drawing::image objects in an image_list.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

image_list()

xtd::forms::image_list::image_list

(

)

Initialize a new instance ao image_list class.

Member Function Documentation

handle()

intptr_t xtd::forms::image_list::handle ( ) const

inline

Gets the handle of the image list object.

Returns

The handle for the image list. The default is 0.

handle_created()

bool xtd::forms::image_list::handle_created ( ) const

inline

Gets a value indicating whether the underlying Win32 handle has been created.

Returns

true if the Handle has been created; otherwise, false. The default is false.

image_size() [1/2]

const drawing::size xtd::forms::image_list::image_size ( ) const

inline

Gets the size of the images in the image list.

Returns

The xtd::drawing::size that defines the height and width, in pixels, of the images in the list. The default size is 16 by 16. The maximum size is 256 by 256.

image_size() [2/2]

const image_list & xtd::forms::image_list::image_size

(

const drawing::size &

value

)

Sets the size of the images in the image list.

Parameters

value

The xtd::drawing::size that defines the height and width, in pixels, of the images in the list. The default size is 16 by 16. The maximum size is 256 by 256.

Remarks

Setting the image_size property prior to adding images to the image collection causes the images to be resized to the image size specified.

When you set the image_size property to a new value, the handle for the image list is recreated.

Because setting the image_size property causes the handle to be recreated, you should set image_size prior to setting the Images property. When the handle for the image_list has been created, setting the color_depth or image_size properties in code, after setting the images property, will cause the collection of images set for the images property to be deleted.

images() [1/2]

image_collection & xtd::forms::image_list::images ( )

inline

Gets the xtd::forms::image_list::image_collection for this image list.

Returns

The collection of images.

Remarks

If the image collection has not yet been created, it is created when you retrieve this property.

images() [2/2]

const image_collection & xtd::forms::image_list::images ( ) const

inline

Gets the xtd::forms::image_list::image_collection for this image list.

Returns

The collection of images.

Remarks

If the image collection has not yet been created, it is created when you retrieve this property.

tag() [1/2]

std::any xtd::forms::image_list::tag ( ) const

inline

Gets an object that contains additional data about the image_list.

Returns

A object that contains additional data about the image_list.

tag() [2/2]

const image_list & xtd::forms::image_list::tag ( std::any &  tag )

inline

Sets an object that contains additional data about the image_list.

Parameters

tag	A object that contains additional data about the image_list.
