Detailed Description

Provides a window onto a section of a terminal screen.

A terminal widget can then render the contents of the window and use the window to change the terminal screen's selection in response to mouse or keyboard input.

A new ScreenWindow for a terminal session can be created by calling Emulation::createWindow()

Use the scrollTo() method to scroll the window up and down on the screen. Use the getImage() method to retrieve the character image which is currently visible in the window.

setTrackOutput() controls whether the window moves to the bottom of the associated screen when new lines are added to it.

Whenever the output from the underlying screen is changed, the notifyOutputChanged() slot should be called. This in turn will update the window's position and emit the outputChanged() signal if necessary.

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum Konsole::ScreenWindow::RelativeScrollMode

Describes the units which scrollBy() moves the window by.

Enumerator
ScrollLines 

Scroll the window down by a given number of lines.

ScrollPages 

Scroll the window down by a given number of pages, where one page is windowLines() lines.

Definition at line 193 of file ScreenWindow.h.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ScreenWindow::ScreenWindow ( QObject *  parent = 0)
explicit

Constructs a new screen window with the given parent.

A screen must be specified by calling setScreen() before calling getImage() or getLineProperties().

You should not call this constructor directly, instead use the Emulation::createWindow() method to create a window on the emulation which you wish to view. This allows the emulation to notify the window when the associated screen has changed and synchronize selection updates between all views on a session.

Definition at line 28 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

ScreenWindow::~ScreenWindow ( )
virtual

Definition at line 41 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

bool ScreenWindow::atEndOfOutput ( ) const

Convenience method.

Returns true if the window is currently at the bottom of the screen.

Definition at line 243 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void ScreenWindow::clearSelection ( )

Clears the current selection.

Definition at line 169 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

int ScreenWindow::columnCount ( ) const

Returns the total number of columns in the screen.

Definition at line 196 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

int ScreenWindow::currentLine ( ) const

Returns the index of the line which is currently at the top of this window.

Definition at line 211 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

int ScreenWindow::currentResultLine ( ) const

Definition at line 216 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void Konsole::ScreenWindow::currentResultLineChanged ( )
signal
QPoint ScreenWindow::cursorPosition ( ) const

Returns the position of the cursor within the window.

Definition at line 201 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

Character * ScreenWindow::getImage ( )

Returns the image of characters which are currently visible through this window onto the screen.

The returned buffer is managed by the ScreenWindow instance and does not need to be deleted by the caller.

Definition at line 57 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

QVector< LineProperty > ScreenWindow::getLineProperties ( )

Returns the line attributes associated with the lines of characters which are currently visible through this window.

Definition at line 112 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void ScreenWindow::getSelectionEnd ( int &  column,
int &  line 
)

Retrieves the end of the selection within the window.

Definition at line 132 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void ScreenWindow::getSelectionStart ( int &  column,
int &  line 
)

Retrieves the start of the selection within the window.

Definition at line 127 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

bool ScreenWindow::isSelected ( int  column,
int  line 
)

Returns true if the character at line , column is part of the selection.

Definition at line 164 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

int ScreenWindow::lineCount ( ) const

Returns the total number of lines in the screen.

Definition at line 191 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void ScreenWindow::notifyOutputChanged ( )
slot

Notifies the window that the contents of the associated terminal screen have changed.

This moves the window to the bottom of the screen if trackOutput() is true and causes the outputChanged() signal to be emitted.

Definition at line 295 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void Konsole::ScreenWindow::outputChanged ( )
signal

Emitted when the contents of the associated terminal screen (see screen()) changes.

void ScreenWindow::resetScrollCount ( )

Resets the count of scrolled lines returned by scrollCount()

Definition at line 280 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

Screen * ScreenWindow::screen ( ) const

Returns the screen which this window looks onto.

Definition at line 52 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void ScreenWindow::scrollBy ( RelativeScrollMode  mode,
int  amount,
bool  fullPage 
)

Scrolls the window relative to its current position on the screen.

Parameters
modeSpecifies whether amount refers to the number of lines or the number of pages to scroll.
amountThe number of lines or pages ( depending on mode ) to scroll by. If this number is positive, the view is scrolled down. If this number is negative, the view is scrolled up.
fullPageSpecifies whether to scroll by full page or half page.

Definition at line 231 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

int ScreenWindow::scrollCount ( ) const

Returns the number of lines which the region of the window specified by scrollRegion() has been scrolled by since the last call to resetScrollCount().

scrollRegion() is in most cases the whole window, but will be a smaller area in, for example, applications which provide split-screen facilities.

This is not guaranteed to be accurate, but allows views to optimize rendering by reducing the amount of costly text rendering that needs to be done when the output is scrolled.

Definition at line 275 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void Konsole::ScreenWindow::scrolled ( int  line)
signal

Emitted when the screen window is scrolled to a different position.

Parameters
lineThe line which is now at the top of the window.
QRect ScreenWindow::scrollRegion ( ) const

Returns the area of the window which was last scrolled, this is usually the whole window area.

Like scrollCount(), this is not guaranteed to be accurate, but allows views to optimize rendering.

Definition at line 285 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void ScreenWindow::scrollTo ( int  line)

Scrolls the window so that line is at the top of the window.

Definition at line 248 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

QString ScreenWindow::selectedText ( bool  preserveLineBreaks,
bool  trimTrailingSpaces = false 
) const

Returns the text which is currently selected.

Parameters
preserveLineBreaksSee Screen::selectedText()
trimTrailingSpacesSee Screen::selectedText()

Definition at line 122 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void Konsole::ScreenWindow::selectionChanged ( )
signal

Emitted when the selection is changed.

void ScreenWindow::setCurrentResultLine ( int  line)

What line the next search will start from.

Definition at line 221 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void ScreenWindow::setScreen ( Screen *  screen)

Sets the screen which this window looks onto.

Definition at line 45 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void ScreenWindow::setSelectionByLineRange ( int  start,
int  end 
)

Sets the selection as the range specified by line start and line end in the whole history.

Both start and end are absolute line number in the whole history, not relative line number in the window. This make it possible to select range larger than the window . A good use case is selecting the whole history.

Definition at line 153 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void ScreenWindow::setSelectionEnd ( int  column,
int  line 
)

Sets the end of the selection to the given line and column within the window.

Definition at line 145 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void ScreenWindow::setSelectionStart ( int  column,
int  line,
bool  columnMode 
)

Sets the start of the selection to the given line and column within the window.

Definition at line 137 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void ScreenWindow::setTrackOutput ( bool  trackOutput)

Specifies whether the window should automatically move to the bottom of the screen when new output is added.

If this is set to true, the window will be moved to the bottom of the associated screen ( see screen() ) when the notifyOutputChanged() method is called.

Definition at line 265 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

void ScreenWindow::setWindowLines ( int  lines)

Sets the number of lines in the window.

Definition at line 176 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

bool ScreenWindow::trackOutput ( ) const

Returns whether the window automatically moves to the bottom of the screen as new output is added.

See setTrackOutput()

Definition at line 270 of file ScreenWindow.cpp.

int ScreenWindow::windowColumns ( ) const
