Module ncursesw::panels[][src]

Functions

moves the given panel window so that its upper-left corner is at origin.y, origin.x. It does not change the position of the panel in the stack. Be sure to use this function, not mvwin(), to move a panel window.

allocates a PANEL structure, associates it with win, places the panel on the top of the stack (causes it to be displayed above any other panel) and returns a pointer to the new panel.

returns a pointer to the panel above pan. If the panel argument is None, it returns a pointer to the bottom panel in the stack.

returns a pointer to the panel just below pan. If the panel argument is None, it returns a pointer to the top panel in the stack.

returns true if the panel is in the panel stack, false if it is not.

returns the user pointer for a given panel.

returns a pointer to the window of the given panel.

replaces the current window of panel with window (useful, for example if you want to resize a panel; if you’re using ncurses, you can call replace_panel on the output of wresize(3x)). It does not change the position of the panel in the stack.

sets the panel’s user pointer.

refreshes the virtual screen to reflect the relations between the panels in the stack, but does not call doupdate() to refresh the physical screen. Use this function and not wrefresh() or wnoutrefresh(). update_panels() may be called more than once before a call to doupdate(), but doupdate() is the function responsible for updating the physical screen.
