panda3d.core.WindowProperties¶

class WindowProperties¶

A container for the various kinds of properties we might ask to have on a graphics window before we open it. This also serves to hold the current properties for a window after it has been opened.

Inheritance diagram

__init__(args: object, kwds: object) → None¶

assign(copy: WindowProperties) → WindowProperties¶

Return type: WindowProperties

static getConfigProperties() → WindowProperties¶

Returns a WindowProperties structure with all of the default values filled in according to the user’s config file.

Return type: WindowProperties

static getDefault() → WindowProperties¶

Returns the “default” WindowProperties. If setDefault() has been called, this returns that WindowProperties structure; otherwise, this returns getConfigProperties().

Return type: WindowProperties

static setDefault(default_properties: WindowProperties) → None¶

Replaces the “default” WindowProperties with the specified structure. The specified WindowProperties will be returned by future calls to getDefault(), until clearDefault() is called.

Note that this completely replaces the default properties; it is not additive.

static clearDefault() → None¶: Returns the “default” WindowProperties to whatever is specified in the user’s config file.

static size(size: LVecBase2i) → WindowProperties¶

Returns a WindowProperties structure with only the size specified. The size is the only property that matters to buffers.

Deprecated: in the Python API, use WindowProperties(size=(x, y)) instead.

Return type: WindowProperties

static size(x_size: int, y_size: int) → WindowProperties

Return type: WindowProperties

clear() → None¶: Unsets all properties that have been specified so far, and resets the WindowProperties structure to its initial empty state.

isAnySpecified() → bool¶: Returns true if any properties have been specified, false otherwise.

setOrigin(origin: LPoint2i) → None¶: Specifies the origin on the screen (in pixels, relative to the top-left corner) at which the window should appear. This is the origin of the top- left corner of the useful part of the window, not including decorations.

setOrigin(x_origin: int, y_origin: int) → None: Specifies the origin on the screen (in pixels, relative to the top-left corner) at which the window should appear. This is the origin of the top- left corner of the useful part of the window, not including decorations.

getOrigin() → LPoint2i¶

Returns the coordinates of the window’s top-left corner, not including decorations.

Return type: LPoint2i

getXOrigin() → int¶: Returns the x coordinate of the window’s top-left corner, not including decorations.

getYOrigin() → int¶: Returns the y coordinate of the window’s top-left corner, not including decorations.

hasOrigin() → bool¶: Returns true if the window origin has been specified, false otherwise.

clearOrigin() → None¶: Removes the origin specification from the properties.

setSize(size: LVector2i) → None¶: Specifies the requested size of the window, in pixels. This is the size of the useful part of the window, not including decorations.

setSize(x_size: int, y_size: int) → None: Specifies the requested size of the window, in pixels. This is the size of the useful part of the window, not including decorations.

getSize() → LVector2i¶

Returns size in pixels of the useful part of the window, not including decorations.

Return type: LVector2i

getXSize() → int¶: Returns size in pixels in the x dimension of the useful part of the window, not including decorations. That is, this is the window’s width.

getYSize() → int¶: Returns size in pixels in the y dimension of the useful part of the window, not including decorations. That is, this is the window’s height.

hasSize() → bool¶: Returns true if the window size has been specified, false otherwise.

clearSize() → None¶: Removes the size specification from the properties.

hasMouseMode() → bool¶

setMouseMode(mode: MouseMode) → None¶

Specifies the mode in which the window is to operate its mouse pointer.

M_absolute: the normal mode in which a mouse pointer operates, where the mouse can move outside the window and the mouse coordinates are relative to its position in the window.

M_relative (OSX or Unix/X11 only): a mode where only relative movements are reported; particularly useful for FPS-style mouse movements where you have hidden the mouse pointer and are are more interested in how fast the mouse is moving, rather than precisely where the pointer is hovering.

This has no effect on Windows. On Unix/X11, this requires the Xxf86dga extension to be available.

M_confined: this mode reports absolute mouse positions, but confines the mouse pointer to the window boundary. It can portably replace M_relative for an FPS, but you need to periodically move the pointer to the center of the window and track movement deltas.

getMouseMode() → MouseMode¶

See setMouseMode().

Return type: MouseMode

clearMouseMode() → None¶: Removes the mouse_mode specification from the properties.

setTitle(title: str) → None¶: Specifies the title that should be assigned to the window.

getTitle() → str¶: Returns the window’s title.

hasTitle() → bool¶: Returns true if the window title has been specified, false otherwise.

clearTitle() → None¶: Removes the title specification from the properties.

getUndecorated() → bool¶: Returns true if the window has no border.

hasUndecorated() → bool¶: Returns true if setUndecorated() has been specified.

clearUndecorated() → None¶: Removes the undecorated specification from the properties.

setFixedSize(fixed_size: bool) → None¶: Specifies whether the window should be resizable by the user.

getFixedSize() → bool¶: Returns true if the window cannot be resized by the user, false otherwise.

clearFullscreen() → None¶: Removes the fullscreen specification from the properties.

setForeground(foreground: bool) → None¶: Specifies whether the window should be opened in the foreground (true), or left in the background (false).

getForeground() → bool¶: Returns true if the window is in the foreground.

hasForeground() → bool¶: Returns true if setForeground() has been specified.

clearForeground() → None¶: Removes the foreground specification from the properties.

setMinimized(minimized: bool) → None¶: Specifies whether the window should be created minimized (true), or normal (false).

getMinimized() → bool¶: Returns true if the window is minimized.

hasMinimized() → bool¶: Returns true if setMinimized() has been specified.

getOpen() → bool¶: Returns true if the window is open.

hasOpen() → bool¶: Returns true if setOpen() has been specified.

clearOpen() → None¶: Removes the open specification from the properties.

setCursorHidden(cursor_hidden: bool) → None¶: Specifies whether the mouse cursor should be visible.

getCursorHidden() → bool¶: Returns true if the mouse cursor is invisible.

hasCursorHidden() → bool¶: Returns true if setCursorHidden() has been specified.

clearCursorHidden() → None¶: Removes the cursor_hidden specification from the properties.

setIconFilename(icon_filename: Filename) → None¶: Specifies the file that contains the icon to associate with the window when it is minimized.

getIconFilename() → Filename¶

Returns the icon filename associated with the window.

Return type: Filename

hasIconFilename() → bool¶: Returns true if setIconFilename() has been specified.

clearIconFilename() → None¶: Removes the icon_filename specification from the properties.

setCursorFilename(cursor_filename: Filename) → None¶: Specifies the file that contains the icon to associate with the mouse cursor when it is within the window (and visible).

getCursorFilename() → Filename¶

Return type: Filename

hasCursorFilename() → bool¶: Returns true if setCursorFilename() has been specified.

clearCursorFilename() → None¶: Removes the cursor_filename specification from the properties.

setZOrder(z_order: ZOrder) → None¶: Specifies the relative ordering of the window with respect to other windows. If the z_order is Z_top, the window will always be on top of other windows; if it is Z_bottom, it will always be below other windows. Most windows will want to be Z_normal, which allows the user to control the order.

getZOrder() → ZOrder¶

Returns the window’s z_order.

Return type: ZOrder

hasZOrder() → bool¶: Returns true if the window z_order has been specified, false otherwise.

clearZOrder() → None¶: Removes the z_order specification from the properties.

setParentWindow(parent_window: WindowHandle) → None¶

Specifies the window that this window should be attached to. If this is NULL or unspecified, the window will be created as a toplevel window on the desktop; if this is non-NULL, the window will be bound as a child window to the indicated parent window.

You should use GraphicsPipe::make_window_handle() to create an instance of a WindowHandle object given an appropriate OS-specific window handle representation. Each OS-specific GraphicsPipe class defines a make_window_handle() method that returns an appropriate WindowHandle object to wrap the particular OS-specific representation.

setParentWindow(parent: size_t) → None

Specifies the window that this window should be attached to.

This is a deprecated variant on this method, and exists only for backward compatibility. Future code should use the version of setParentWindow() below that receives a WindowHandle object; that interface is much more robust.

In this deprecated variant, the actual value for “parent” is platform- specific. On Windows, it is the HWND of the parent window, cast to an unsigned integer. On X11, it is the Window pointer of the parent window, similarly cast. On OSX, this is the NSWindow pointer, which doesn’t appear to work at all.

getParentWindow() → WindowHandle¶

Returns the parent window specification, or NULL if there is no parent window specified.

Return type: WindowHandle

hasParentWindow() → bool¶: Checks the S_parent_window specification from the properties.

clearParentWindow() → None¶: Removes the S_parent_window specification from the properties.

addProperties(other: WindowProperties) → None¶: Sets any properties that are explicitly specified in other on this object. Leaves other properties unchanged.

output(out: ostream) → None¶: Sets any properties that are explicitly specified in other on this object. Leaves other properties unchanged.
