Detailed Description

A control used to initiate an action.

An action is activated by clicking on the button with the mouse or by a keyboard button. If the button is the default button for the active window then you can activate it by pushing the Enter key.

The behavior of a button depends on its behavior. The normal behavior of a button is to set the value to 1 (B_CONTROL_ON) only when the button is activated, otherwise the value is 0 (B_CONTROL_OFF). Setting a button to use B_TOGGLE_BEHAVIOR makes the button behave like a checkbox so that each time the button is activate the value toggles between B_CONTROL_OFF and B_CONTROL_ON. The third behavior to use is B_POP_UP_BEHAVIOR which adds a pop-up marker to the button similar to that of BMenuField.

A button may have either a text label, an icon, or both. The button's label is set in the constructor or by the SetLabel() method. To set the icon for a button use the SetIcon() method. The text label will draw to the right of the icon.

◆ BButton() [1/4]

BButton::BButton ( BRect  frame,
const char *  name,
const char *  label,
BMessage message,
uint32  resizingMode = B_FOLLOW_LEFT_TOP,
uint32  flags = B_WILL_DRAW | B_NAVIGABLE | B_FULL_UPDATE_ON_RESIZE 
)

Creates and initializes a BButton control.

Note
A BButton created with a constructor that includes a frame parameter does not utilize the Layout Kit to position and size the control.

BControl initializes the button's label and assigns it a message that identifies the action that should be carried out when the button is pressed. When the button is attached to a window it is resizes to the height of the button's frame rectangle to fit the button's border and label in the button's font.

The frame, name, resizingMode, and flags parameters are passed up the inheritance chain to the BView class.

Parameters
frameThe frame rectangle that the button is draw into.
nameThe name of the button. Can be NULL.
labelThe button label text. Can be NULL.
messageThe BButtons's action message. Can be NULL.
resizingModeMask sets the parameters by which the BButton can be resized. See BView for more information on resizing options.
flagsThe flags mask sets what notifications the BButton can receive. See BView for more information on flags.

Creates and initializes a BButton control.

BControl initializes the button's label and assigns it a message that identifies the action that should be carried out when the button is pressed. When the button is attached to a window it is resizes to the height of the button's frame rectange to fit the button's border and label in the button's font.

Parameters
nameThe name of the button. Can be NULL.
labelThe button's label text. Can be NULL.

◆ MakeDefault()

void BButton::MakeDefault ( bool  flag)
virtual

A window can have only one default button at a time.

◆ MakeFocus()

void BButton::MakeFocus ( bool  focus = true)
virtual

Makes the button the current focus view of the window or gives up being the window's focus view.

BControl::MakeFocus() overrides BView::MakeFocus() to call Draw() when the focus changes. Derived classes generally don't have to re-implement MakeFocus().

IsFocusChanging() returns true when Draw() is called from this method.

Parameters
focustrue to set focus, false to remove it.

◆ MessageReceived()

void BButton::MessageReceived ( BMessage message)
virtual

Handle message received by the associated looper.

Parameters
messageThe message received by the associated looper.

◆ MinSize()

BSize BButton::MinSize ( )
virtual

Returns the button's minimum size.

Returns
The button's minimum size as a BSize.

◆ MouseDown()

void BButton::MouseDown ( BPoint  where)
virtual

Hook method called when a mouse button is pressed.

Begins tracking the mouse cursor.

Parameters
whereThe point on the screen where the mouse pointer is when the mouse button is pressed.
Since
BeOS R3

Reimplemented from BControl.

◆ MouseMoved()

void BButton::MouseMoved ( BPoint  where,
uint32  code,
const BMessage dragMessage 
)
virtual

Hook method called when the mouse is moved.

Once MouseDown() has been called this method updates the button's value if the mouse cursor is inside the button. The value that is set depends on if the button is using B_TOGGLE_BEHAVIOR or not.

Parameters
whereThe new location of the mouse in the view's coordinate system.
codeOne of the following:
  • B_ENTERED_VIEW The cursor has just entered the view.
  • B_INSIDE_VIEW The cursor is inside the view.
  • B_EXITED_VIEW The cursor has left the view's bounds. This only gets sent if the scope of the mouse events that the view can receive has been expanded by SetEventMask() or SetMouseEventMask().
  • B_OUTSIDE_VIEW The cursor is outside the view. This only gets sent if the scope of the mouse events that the view can receive has been expanded by SetEventMask() or SetMouseEventMask().
dragMessageIf a drag-and-drop operation is taking place this is a pointer to a BMessage that holds the drag information, otherwise the pointer is NULL.

◆ MouseUp()

void BButton::MouseUp ( BPoint  where)
virtual

Hook method called when a mouse button is released.

Set the value of the button if MouseDown() was previously called on the button. The value that is set depends on if the button is using B_TOGGLE_BEHAVIOR or not.

Parameters
whereThe point on the screen where the mouse pointer is when the mouse button is released.
Note
Calling GetMouse() in MouseUp() will return the new state of the mouse buttons (after the mouse button was released). If you want to know which button was released, you have to compare that with the previous state of the buttons, that you can memorize for example by calling GetMouse() in MouseDown().
