Unigine.EngineWindowGroup Class
| Inherits from: | EngineWindow |
The class to create and manage window groups. It allows arranging of multiple windows of a group into tabs, defining parameters of window group elements (such as tabs and window separators), and detecting intersections with nested windows. The picture below shows the elements of the window group:
There are three types of the window groups:
- Vertical
- Horizontal
- Group of tabs
Within the group, all windows are stacked according to one of these types.
Creating a Window Group#
A window group can be created in one of the following ways:
- You can create an empty group using one of the EngineWindowGroup class constructors and then add windows or other groups to it.
- You can stack windows using WindowManager class functionality.
In this article, we will consider only the first one.
The following examples demonstrate how to create groups of different types using the EngineWindowGroup class and add nested windows to them:
Source code (C#)
// create separate windows that will be grouped
EngineWindowViewport horizontal_1 = new EngineWindowViewport("Horizontal 1", 512, 256);
EngineWindowViewport horizontal_2 = new EngineWindowViewport("Horizontal 2", 512, 256);
EngineWindowViewport horizontal_3 = new EngineWindowViewport("Horizontal 3", 512, 256);
// create a horizontal group
EngineWindowGroup horizontal_group = new EngineWindowGroup(EngineWindowGroup.GROUP_TYPE.HORIZONTAL, "Horizontal Group", 565, 310);
// add windows to the group
horizontal_group.Add(horizontal_1);
horizontal_group.Add(horizontal_2);
horizontal_group.Add(horizontal_3);
// set a position of the group
horizontal_group.Position = new ivec2(50, 60);
// render the group
horizontal_group.Show();Source code (C#)
// create separate windows that will be grouped
EngineWindowViewport vertical_1 = new EngineWindowViewport("Vertical 1", 512, 256);
EngineWindowViewport vertical_2 = new EngineWindowViewport("Vertical 1", 512, 256);
EngineWindowViewport vertical_3 = new EngineWindowViewport("Vertical 1", 512, 256);
// create a vertical group
EngineWindowGroup vertical_group = new EngineWindowGroup(EngineWindowGroup.GROUP_TYPE.VERTICAL, "Vertical Group", 305, 670);
// add windows to the group
vertical_group.Add(vertical_1);
vertical_group.Add(vertical_2);
vertical_group.Add(vertical_3);
// set a position of the group
vertical_group.Position = new ivec2(665, 60);
// render the group
vertical_group.Show();Source code (C#)
// create separate windows that will be grouped
EngineWindowViewport tab_1 = new EngineWindowViewport("Tab 1", 512, 256);
EngineWindowViewport tab_2 = new EngineWindowViewport("Tab 2", 512, 256);
EngineWindowViewport tab_3 = new EngineWindowViewport("Tab 3", 512, 256);
// create a group of tabs
EngineWindowGroup tab_group = new EngineWindowGroup(EngineWindowGroup.GROUP_TYPE.TAB, "Tab Group", 565, 310);
tab_group.Add(tab_1);
tab_group.Add(tab_2);
tab_group.Add(tab_3);
// set a position of the group
tab_group.Position = new ivec2(50, 420);
// render the group
tab_group.Show();Editing a Window Group#
Editing a window group involves modifying its elements such as tabs and separators, adding or removing nested windows, specifying an automatic deletion mode, and so on.
Notice
You may need to call UpdateGuiHierarchy() first, if you have added a new window to the group and want to access its settings immediately. Otherwise, you may get incorrect results.
Source code (C#)
// create separate windows that will be grouped
EngineWindowViewport horizontal_1 = new EngineWindowViewport("Horizontal 1", 512, 256);
EngineWindowViewport horizontal_2 = new EngineWindowViewport("Horizontal 2", 512, 256);
EngineWindowViewport horizontal_3 = new EngineWindowViewport("Horizontal 3", 512, 256);
// create a horizontal group
EngineWindowGroup horizontal_group = new EngineWindowGroup(EngineWindowGroup.GROUP_TYPE.HORIZONTAL, "Horizontal Group", 800, 256);
// add windows to the group
horizontal_group.Add(horizontal_1);
horizontal_group.Add(horizontal_2);
horizontal_group.Add(horizontal_3);
// set a position of the group
horizontal_group.Position = new ivec2(50, 60);
// update a hierarchy in self gui of the group
horizontal_group.UpdateGuiHierarchy();
int position_offset = 100;
float value_offset = 0.2f;
for (int i = 0; i < horizontal_group.NumNestedWindows; i++)
{
// change a tab
horizontal_group.SetTabTitle(i, "New name " + i.ToString());
if (i == 0) horizontal_group.SetHorizontalTabWidth(i, position_offset);
// change a separator
horizontal_group.SetSeparatorValue(i, horizontal_group.GetSeparatorValue(i) + value_offset);
}
// render the group
horizontal_group.Show();Managing Groups#
The EngineWindowGroup and base EngineWindow classes offer a range of functions that allow implementing custom logic for grouping and ungrouping windows. For example, you can do the following:
- Control whether the group can be modified (i.e. whether new windows can be added and the nested windows can be removed).
- Check if a window can be added to the group
- Access the nested windows
- Specify the automatic deletion mode
And more, providing you with flexible control over the grouping logic.
