Table

Widget description

A container widget to arrange other widgets in a table where items can span multiple columns or rows - even overlap (and then be raised or lowered accordingly to adjust stacking if they do overlap).

The row and column count is not fixed. The table widget adjusts itself when subobjects are added to it dynamically.

The most common way to use a table is:

table = Table(win)
table.show()
table.padding = (space_between_columns, space_between_rows)
table.pack(table_content_object, x_coord, y_coord, colspan, rowspan)
table.pack(table_content_object, x_coord, y_coord, colspan, rowspan)
table.pack(table_content_object, x_coord, y_coord, colspan, rowspan)

Inheritance diagram

class efl.elementary.Table(Object parent, *args, **kwargs)

Bases: efl.elementary.__init__.Object

This is the class that actually implement the widget.

Parameters

• parent (efl.evas.Object) – The parent object

• **kwargs – All the remaining keyword arguments are interpreted as properties of the instance

align

The alignment of the table

Default value is (0.5, 0.5)

Type

(float horizontal, float vertical)

New in version 1.13.

align_get()

align_set(horizontal, vertical)

child_get(col, row)

Get child object of table at given coordinates.

Parameters

• col (int) – Column number of child object

• row (int) – Row number of child object

Returns

Child of object if find if not return None.

New in version 1.8.

clear(clear)

Faster way to remove all child objects from a table object.

Parameters

clear (bool) – If True, will delete children, else just remove from table.

homogeneous

The homogeneous layout in the table

Type

bool

homogeneous_get()

homogeneous_set(homogeneous)

pack(subobj, x, y, w, h)

Add a subobject on the table with the coordinates passed

Note

All positioning inside the table is relative to rows and columns, so a value of 0 for x and y, means the top left cell of the table, and a value of 1 for w and h means subobj only takes that 1 cell.

Parameters

• subobj (Object) – The subobject to be added to the table

• x (int) – Row number

• y (int) – Column number

• w (int) – colspan

• h (int) – rowspan

padding

Padding between cells.

Default value is (0, 0).

Type

(int, int)

padding_get()

padding_set(horizontal, vertical)

unpack(subobj)

Remove child from table.

Parameters

subobj (Object) – The subobject

efl.elementary.table_pack_set(subobj, x, y, w, h)

Set the packing location of an existing child of the table

Modifies the position of an object already in the table.

Note

All positioning inside the table is relative to rows and columns, so a value of 0 for x and y, means the top left cell of the table, and a value of 1 for w and h means subobj only takes that 1 cell.

Parameters

• subobj (Object) – The subobject to be modified in the table

• x (int) – Row number

• y (int) – Column number

• w (int) – rowspan

• h (int) – colspan

efl.elementary.table_pack_get(subobj)

Get the packing location of an existing child of the table

table_pack_set()

Parameters

subobj (Object) – The subobject to be modified in the table

Returns

Row number, Column number, rowspan, colspan

Return type

tuple of ints
