Return the position and size of the view, relative to its parent.
Return

Return whether the view is visible.
Return
booleanisvisibleinhierarchy()
Return whether the view and its ancestors are visible.
Return
booleansetenabled(enable)

The enabled state of each view is not affected by its parent, disabling a container-like view does not have any effect.

Return
booleanfocus()

hasfocus()
Return whether the view has keyboard focus.
Return
booleansetfocusable(focusable)
Set whether the view can be focused on.
Parameters
booleanfocusable
isfocusable()
Return whether the view can be focused on.
Return
booleansetmousedowncanmovewindow(can)
Set whether dragging mouse would move the window.
For most platforms this method only works for frameless windows, having this feature may also prevent mouse events to happen.
On macOS the Container view has this feature turned on by default. To
turn this feature on for the view, the view's parent view must also has
this feature turned on.
On Windows the view with this feature will be treated as titlebar, e.g. double-clicking would maximize the window, right-clicking may show the system menu.
Parameters
booleancan
ismousedowncanmovewindow()
Return whether dragging the view would move the window.
Return
booleandodrag(data, operations)
Like DoDragWithOptions but do not set drag image.
Parameters
tabledataintegeroperations
Return
integerdodragwithoptions(data, operations, options)
Start a drag session.
The return value is a DragOperation indicating the result of
dragging.
This method should only be called in the on_mouse_down event, when user
starts to drag the cursor.
This method is blocking that it does not return until the drag session is finished or cancelled. During the call a nested UI message loop will run and other events will still be emitted.
Note that on macOS certain views may have IsMouseDownCanMoveWindow
defaulting to true, which will prevent drag session to start. Make sure
to call SetMouseDownCanMoveWindow(false) for drag sources.
Parameters
tabledata - An array ofClipboard::Datathat will be passed to drop target.integeroperations - Must be one or more ofDragOperationmasks, indicates which drag operations are supported.DragOptionsoptions
Return
integercanceldrag()

isdragging()

Parameters
tabletypes - An array ofClipboard::Data::Type.

For certain views like Label, this may have remove the view's background
color.

handledragenter(self, info, point)
Called when user drags the cursor over the view for the first time.
A DragOperation should be returned, indicating which dragging
operation the destination will perform when cursor is released.
This delegate will not be called if the view has not registered dragged types, or if the dragged data does not belong to the registered type.
On Linux the dragged data is not yet available when this is called, you
should usually only read data in the handle_drop delegate.
Parameters
ViewselfDraggingInfoinfoPointFpoint
Return
integerhandledragupdate(self, info, point)
Called when user moves the cursor over the view while dragging.
A DragOperation should be returned, indicating which dragging
operation the destination will perform when cursor is released.
If this delegate is not implemented, the return value of previous
handle_drag_enter call will be returned.
This delegate is usually used when implementing a custom view with
multiple dropping areas, you only need to implement handle_drag_enter
for simple tasks.
On Linux the dragged data is not yet available when this is called, you
should usually only read data in the handle_drop delegate.
Parameters
ViewselfDraggingInfoinfoPointFpoint
Return
integerhandledrop(self, info, point)
Called when user releases the dragged data on the view.
Returning true will inform the drag source that the data has been
accepted with the drag operation returned by previous handle_drag_enter
or handle_drag_update call.
If the drag operation is Move, the drag source may also take actions
to "remove" the data on its side.
Returning false will inform the drag source that the drag has been
cancelled, and operating system may display some visual effects.
Parameters
ViewselfDraggingInfoinfoPointFpoint
Return
boolean
