Detailed Description

A container in which you can stack rows vertically.

Each row behaves like a HorFrame, allowing to stack children widgets horizontally (using PACK as the x parameter in their constructor). You can add rows to the frame, obtaining thus a disposition similar to a matrix. When you add widgets you must indicate the RowFrame object (not the row) as their parent. The widgets will be added to the active row, which is the last constructed or the one set with the set_active() method. The frame is initialized with the same color of its parent and no border, being so invisible. However you can set a border and also a label to be shown on it.

Warning

setting a border reduces the space inside the frame

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

__init__()

def __init__	(		self,
			parent,
			x,
			y,
			w,
			h,
			pad = 0,
			content = ""
	)

The constructor.

The frame has initially no rows, and you must add them with the add_row() method.

Parameters

parent	the frame parent
x,y,w,h	see Placing the widgets
pad	this is ignored, you cannot have a padding on frames
content	a string you can put as label

Reimplemented from Container.

Reimplemented in RowScrollFrame.

Member Function Documentation

add_row()

def add_row	(		self,
			h
	)

Adds a row to the frame.

Rows are stacked vertically from top to bottom. This also sets the new row as the active one: newly created widgets (which have the RowFrame as their parent) will belong to this row.

Parameters

h	the height of the row (the width coincides with the frame one); see Placing the widgets for the various options you have

del_row()

def del_row	(		self,
			n
	)

Deletes a row from the frame.

If the row is not the last one subsequent rows are moved up, if it was the active row the previous row becomes active.

Parameters

n	the number of the row (if it is not in the appropriate range an error is raised).

get_active()

def get_active

(

self

)

Returns the number of the active row in the frame.

num_rows()

def num_rows

(

self

)

Returns the total number of the rows in the frame.

set_active()

def set_active	(		self,
			n
	)

Sets the n-th row as active.

Newly created widgets (which have the RowFrame as their parent) will belong to this row. When you use add_row() the newly created row is automatically set as active.

Parameters

n	the row number (starting from 0)
