Padre::Wx::Display(3) User Contributed Perl DocumentationPadre::Wx::Display(3)NAMEPadre::Wx::Display - Utility functions for physical display geometry
DESCRIPTION
This module provides a collection of utility functions relating to the
physical display geometry of the host Padre is running on.
These functions help choose the most visually elegant default sizes and
positions for Padre windows, and allow Padre to adapt when the screen
geometry of the host changes (which can be fairly common in the case of
powerful multi-screen developer computers).
FUNCTIONS
perfect
my $boolean = Padre::Wx::Display->perfect(
Padre::Current->main
);
The default Wx implementation of IsShownOnScreen is a bit weird, and
while it may be technically correct as far as Wx is concerned it does
not necesarily represent what a typical human expects, which is that
the application is on an active plugged in monitor and that it is
entirely on the monitor.
The "perfect" method takes a Wx::TopLevelWindow object (which
incorporates either a Wx::Dialog or a Wx::Frame) and determines if the
window meets the warm and fuzzy human criteria for a usable location.
Returns true if so, or false otherwise.
primary
Locates and returns the primary display as a Wx::Display object.
primary_default
Generate a Wx::Rect (primarily for the Padre::Wx::Main window) which is
a landscape-orientation golden-ratio rectangle on the primary display
with a 10% margin.
