Center
Center([Parent])
Center the window vertically and horizontally in the Parent (Default: the Desktop window). Parent can be either a Win32::GUI::Window or a hwind. Return 1 on success, else 0.
GetDC
GetDC()
Returns the DC object associated with the window.
EVENTS
Common events apply to most windows and controls.
Activate
Activate()
Sent when the window is activated.
Deactivate
Deactivate()
Sent when the window is deactivated.
InitMenu
InitMenu(MENU)
Sent when a menu is about to become active. It occurs when the user clicks an item on the menu bar or presses a menu key. This allows the application to modify the menu before it is displayed.
Maximize
Maximize()
Sent when the window is maximized.
Maximize (Win32::GUI::MDIChild)
Maximize()
Sent when the window is maximized.
Minimize
Minimize()
Sent when the window is minimized.
Minimize (Win32::GUI::MDIChild)
Minimize()
Sent when the window is minimized.
Paint
Paint(DC)
Sent when the window needs to be repainted.
Note that you get the DC of the window object in parameter, and then Validate() the DC to inform Windows that you painted the DC area (otherwise it will continue to call the Paint event continuously). Example:
sub Graphic_Paint {
my $DC = shift;
$DC->MoveTo(0, 0);
$DC->LineTo(100, 100);
$DC->Validate();
}
Resize
Resize()
Sent when the window is resized.
Resize (Win32::GUI::MDIChild)
Resize()
Sent when the window is resized.
Scroll
Scroll(SCROLLBAR, OPERATION, POSITION)
Sent when one of the window scrollbars is moved. SCROLLBAR identifies which bar was moved, 0 for horizontal and 1 for vertical.
OPERATION can be compared against one of the following constants: SB_LINEUP, SB_LINELEFT, SB_LINEDOWN, SB_LINERIGHT, SB_PAGEUP SB_PAGELEFT, SB_PAGEDOWN, SB_PAGERIGHT, SB_THUMBPOSITION, SB_THUMBTRACK, SB_TOP, SB_LEFT, SB_BOTTOM, SB_RIGHT, SB_ENDSCROLL
