Specifies the base name of the object.

The base name specified will become the object's Name, unless another sibling
already has that name, in which case Dabo will find the next unique name by
adding integers to the end of the base name. For example, if your code says:

	self.NameBase = "txtAddress"

and there is already a sibling object with that name, your object will end up
with Name = "txtAddress1".

The IDE can bind to this to direct detailed documentation into a separate
window, likely replacing previous documentation. The user can choose how
to display that window, if at all.

Raise this event with three additional keyword arguments:
	+ shortDoc: a one-liner call tip
	+ longDoc: a multi-line call tip plus expanded documentation
	+ object: a reference to the object to be documented, in case
		the listener wants to format additional information about
		the object.

Occurs when the underlying editor control requires restyling.

Occurs when the properties of a dFont have changed.

Occurs when the control gets the focus.

This is a good place to put redraw or other such UI-intensive code, so that it
will only run when the application is otherwise not busy doing other (more
important) things.

their properties.

Occurs when the control's value has changed, whether
programmatically or interactively.

Translates a position value for a control to absolute screen position.

Instantiate object as a child of self.

The classRef argument must be a Dabo UI class definition. (it must inherit
dPemMixin). Alternatively, it can be a saved class definition in XML format,
as created by the Class Designer.

The name argument, if passed, will be sent along to the object's
constructor, which will attempt to set its Name accordingly. If the name
argument is not passed (or None), the object will get a default Name as
defined in the object's class definition.

Additional positional and/or keyword arguments will be sent along to the
object's constructor.

Subclass hook. Called after the object's __init__ has run fully.
Subclasses should place their __init__ code here in this hook, instead of
overriding __init__ directly, to avoid conflicting with base Dabo behavior.

Automatically bind any on*() methods to the associated event.

User code only needs to define the callback, and Dabo will automatically
set up the event binding. This will satisfy lots of common cases where
you want an object or its parent to respond to the object's events.

To use this feature, just define a method on<EventName>(), or	if you
want a parent container to respond to the event, make a method in the
parent on<EventName>_<object Name or RegID>().

For example::
	
	class MyButton(dabo.ui.dButton):
		def onHit(self, evt):
			print "Hit!"

	class MyPanel(dabo.ui.dPanel):
		def afterInit(self):
			self.addObject(MyButton, RegID="btn1")

		def onHit_btn1(self, evt):
			print "panel: button hit!"

When the button is pressed, you'll see both 'hit' messages because of
auto event binding.

If you want to bind your events explicitly, you can turn off auto event
binding by calling::

	 dabo.autoBindEvents = False

This feature is inspired by PythonCard.

Subclass hook. Called before the object is fully instantiated.
Usually, user code should override afterInit() instead, but there may be
cases where you need to set an attribute before the init stage is fully
underway.

Bind a dEvent to a callback function.

Bind a sequence of [dEvent, callback] lists.

Bind a key combination such as "ctrl+c" to a callback function.

See dKeys.keyStrings for the valid string key codes.
See dKeys.modifierStrings for the valid modifier codes.

Examples::

	# When user presses <esc>, close the form:
	form.bindKey("esc", form.Close)

	# When user presses <ctrl><alt><w>, close the form:
	form.bindKey("ctrl+alt+w", form.Close)

Makes this object topmost

Present the call tip for the current object, if any.

Check to see if changes need to be saved, and if so prompt the user.

Return False if saves were needed but not made.

Returns True or False depending on whether the file on disk has been modified
since it was opened. It is up to the calling code to decide what to do with this
information.

Clears the background of custom-drawn objects.

Removes all bookmarks.

Clears the specified bookmark. If no such bookmark
exists, does nothing.

Create another object just like the passed object. It assumes that the
calling object will be the container of the newly created object.

to the specified container. If no position is passed, returns the position
of this control relative to the container.

Called by uiApp when the user requests a copy operation.

Return None (the default) and uiApp will try a default copy operation.
Return anything other than None and uiApp will assume that the copy
operation has been handled.

Called by uiApp when the user requests a cut operation.

Return None (the default) and uiApp will try a default cut operation.
Return anything other than None and uiApp will assume that the cut
operation has been handled.

starting from 'startAngle' degrees, and sweeping counter-clockwise
until 'endAngle' is reached.

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

Draws a bitmap on the object at the specified position.

Draws a circle of the specified radius around the specified point.

You can set the color and thickness of the line, as well as the
color and hatching style of the fill. Normally, when persist=True,
the circle will be re-drawn on paint events, but if you pass False,
it will be drawn once only.

A drawing object is returned, or None if persist=False. You can
'remove' the drawing by setting the Visible property of the
returned object to False. You can also manipulate the position, size,
color, and fill by changing the various properties of the object.

Draws an ellipse contained within the rectangular space defined by
the position and size coordinates

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

dimensions, starting from 'startAngle' degrees, and sweeping
counter-clockwise until 'endAngle' is reached.

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

Draws a horizontal or vertical gradient on the control. Default
is to cover the entire control, although you can specify positions.
The gradient is drawn with 'color1' as the top/left color, and 'color2'
as the bottom/right color.

Draws a line between (x1,y1) and (x2, y2).

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

Draws a series of connected line segments defined by the specified points.

The 'points' parameter should be a tuple of (x,y) pairs defining the shape. Lines
are drawn connecting the points sequentially, but a segment from the last
point to the first is not drawn, leaving an 'open' polygon. As a result, there is no
FillColor or HatchStyle defined for this.

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

Draws a polygon defined by the specified points.

The 'points' parameter should be a tuple of (x,y) pairs defining the
polygon.

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

Draws a rectangle of the specified size beginning at the specified
point.

See the 'drawCircle()' method above for more details.

using the specified characteristics. Any characteristics
not specified will be set to the system default.

Moves to the line for the specified bookmark. If no such
bookmark exists, does nothing.

Resize the control to fit the size required by its sizer.

Save any changes to the underlying source field. First check to make sure
that any changes are validated.

to the containing form. If no position is passed, returns the position
of this control relative to the form.

Return the fully qualified name of the object.

Return the empty value of the control.

Returns the name of the bookmark for the passed
line, or None if the line is not bookmarked.

Returns a list of all current bookmark names.

Return a bitmap snapshot of self as it appears in the UI at this moment.

Returns the name of the bookmark for the current
line, or None if this line is not bookmarked.

Returns an object that locks the current display when created, and
unlocks it when destroyed. This is generally safer than calling lockDisplay()
and unlockDisplay(), especially when used with callAfterInterval(), when
the unlockDisplay() calls may not all happen.

Returns a list of all 'class' and 'def' statements, along
with their starting positions in the text.

Given a position within the text, returns the corresponding line
number. If the position is invalid, returns -1.

Returns the full text of the line containing specified position, or if
no position is passed, for the current insertion point.

Returns the width of the non-editing area along the left side.

Returns the current mouse position on the entire screen
relative to this object.

Given a line number, returns the position of the start of that line.
If the line number is invalid, returns -1.

Given an x,y position, returns the position in the text if that point
is close to any text; if not, returns -1.

Convenience method to let you call this directly on the object.

Returns a dictionary of property name/value pairs.

If a sequence of properties is passed, just those property values
will be returned. Otherwise, all property values will be returned.
The sequence of properties can be a list, tuple, or plain string
positional arguments. For instance, all of the following are
equivilent::

	print self.getProperties("Caption", "FontInfo", "Form")
	print self.getProperties(["Caption", "FontInfo", "Form"])
	t = ("Caption", "FontInfo", "Form")
	print self.getProperties(t)
	print self.getProperties(\*t)

An exception will be raised if any passed property names don't
exist, aren't actual properties, or are not readable (do not have
getter functions).

However, if an exception is raised from the property getter function,
the exception will get caught and used as the property value in the
returned property dictionary. This allows the property list to be
returned even if some properties can't be evaluated correctly by the
object yet.

Gets the current setting for the given property from the object's
ControllingSizer. Returns None if object is not in a sizer.

Returns a dict containing the object's sizer property info. The
keys are the property names, and the values are the current
values for those props.

Moves to the next bookmark in the document. If the
line to start searching from is not specified, searches from
the current line. If there are no more bookmarks, nothing
happens.

Moves to the previous bookmark in the document. If the
line to start searching from is not specified, searches from
the current line. If there are no more bookmarks, nothing
happens.

Make the object invisible.

Selects the specified line. If the line number does not exist,
a ValueError is raised.

Hook for subclasses. User code should do custom event binding
here, such as::
	
	self.bindEvent(dEvents.GotFocus, self.customGotFocusHandler)
	

Hook for subclasses. User subclasses should set properties
here, such as::
	
	self.Name = "MyTextBox"
	self.BackColor = (192,192,192)
	

Returns True if the containership hierarchy for this control
includes the passed object reference.

Call the given function on this object and all of its Children. If
any object does not have the given function, no error is raised; it
is simply ignored.

Locks the visual updates to the control.

This can significantly improve performance when many items are being
updated at once.

IMPORTANT: you must call unlockDisplay() when you are done, or your
object will never draw. unlockDisplay() must be called once for every
time lockDisplay() is called in order to resume repainting of the
control. Alternatively, you can call lockDisplay() many times, and
then call unlockDisplayAll() once when you are done.

Note that lockDisplay currently doesn't do anything on GTK.

Moves this object's tab order after the passed obj.

Moves this object's tab order before the passed obj.

Create a new file and edit it.

Given a position relative to the form, return a position relative
to this object. If no position is passed, returns the position
of this control relative to the form.

Open a new file and edit it.

Called by uiApp when the user requests a paste operation.

Return None (the default) and uiApp will try a default paste operation.
Return anything other than None and uiApp will assume that the paste
operation has been handled.

Stub function to process a left click on the bookmark margin area.

Handler for files dropped on the control. Override in your
subclass/instance for your needs .

Handler for text dropped on the control. Override in your
subclass/instance for your needs .

Prompt the user for a file name.

Prompt user for the filename to save the file as.

If the file exists, confirm with the user that they really want to
overwrite.

Raise the passed Dabo event.

Abstract method: subclasses MUST override for UI-specifics.

Recreate the object.

Warning: this is experimental and is known to cause hair loss.

Called when the object is (re)drawn.

This is a user subclass hook, where you should put any drawing routines
to affect the object appearance.

Repaints this control and all contained objects.

Translates an absolute screen position to position value for a control.

Destroys the object.

Set the control's value to the value in dApp's user settings table.

Save control's value to dApp's user settings table.

Select all text from <position> for <length> or end of string.

Select all text in the control.

Select no text in the control.

Places this object behind all others.

Set all child object properties to the passed value.

No bad effects will happen if the property doesn't apply to a child - only
children with the property will have their property updated.

If 'recurse' is True, setAll() will be called on each child as well.

If 'filt' is not empty, only children that match the expression in 'filt'
will be affected. The expression will be evaluated assuming the child
object is prefixed to the expression. For example, if you want to only
affect objects that are instances of dButton, you'd call::

	form.setAll("FontBold", True, filt="BaseClass == dabo.ui.dButton")

If the instancesOf sequence is passed, the property will only be set if
the child object is an instance of one of the passed classes.

Creates a bookmark that can be referenced by the
identifying name that is passed. If a bookmark already
exists for that name, the old one is deleted. The
bookmark is set on the current line unless a specific
line number is passed.

Sets focus to the object.

Hides the auto-completion popup if one is open.

Convenience method to let you call this directly on the object.

Sets a group of properties on the object all at once.

You have the following options for sending the properties:
	
	1) Property/Value pair dictionary
	2) Keyword arguments
	3) Both

The following examples all do the same thing::

	self.setProperties(FontBold=True, ForeColor="Red")
	self.setProperties({"FontBold": True, "ForeColor": "Red"})
	self.setProperties({"FontBold": True}, ForeColor="Red")

Sets a group of properties on the object all at once. This
is different from the regular setProperties() method because
it only accepts a dict containing prop:value pairs, and it
assumes that the value is always a string. It will convert
the value to the correct type for the property, and then set
the property to that converted value. If the value needs to be evaluated
in a specific namespace, pass that as the 'context' parameter.

Tells the object's ControllingSizer to adjust the requested property.

Convenience method for setting multiple sizer item properties at once. The
dict should have the property name as the key and the desired new value
as the associated value.

Sets the appropriate lexer for syntax coloring.

Set the title of the editor

Make the object visible.

If this object is inside of any paged control, it will force all containing
paged controls to switch to the page that contains this object.

Display a context menu (popup) at the specified position.

If no position is specified, the menu will be displayed at the current
mouse position.

If release is True (the default), the menu will be released after the user
has dismissed it.

Scrolls the editor so that the current position is visible.

Remove a previously registered event binding.

Removes all registrations that exist for the given binding for this
object. If event is None, all bindings for the passed function are
removed. If function is None, all bindings for the passed event are
removed. If both event and function are None, all event bindings are
removed.

Unbind a previously bound key combination.

Fail silently if the key combination didn't exist already.

Unlocks the visual updates to the control.

Use in conjunction with lockDisplay(), when you are doing lots of things
that would result in lengthy screen updates.

Since lockDisplay() may be called several times on an object, calling
unlockDisplay() will "undo" one locking call. When all locks have been
removed, repainting of the display will resume.

Immediately unlocks the display, no matter how many previous
lockDisplay calls have been made. Useful in a callAfterInterval()
construction to avoid flicker.

Update control's value to match the current value from the source.
