NAME

       wxCaret - Functions for wxCaret class

DESCRIPTION

       A  caret  is a blinking cursor showing the position where the typed text will appear. Text
       controls usually have their own caret but wxCaret provides a way to use a caret  in  other
       windows.

       Currently,  the  caret appears as a rectangle of the given size. In the future, it will be
       possible to specify a bitmap to be used for the caret shape.

       A caret is always associated with a window and the current caret can  be  retrieved  using
       wxWindow:getCaret/1. The same caret can't be reused in two different windows.

DATA TYPES

       wxCaret() = wx:wx_object()

EXPORTS

       new(Window, Size) -> wxCaret()

              Types:

                 Window = wxWindow:wxWindow()
                 Size = {W :: integer(), H :: integer()}

       new(Window, Width, Height) -> wxCaret()

              Types:

                 Window = wxWindow:wxWindow()
                 Width = Height = integer()

              Creates a caret with the given size (in pixels) and associates it with the window.

       create(This, Window, Size) -> boolean()

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()
                 Window = wxWindow:wxWindow()
                 Size = {W :: integer(), H :: integer()}

       create(This, Window, Width, Height) -> boolean()

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()
                 Window = wxWindow:wxWindow()
                 Width = Height = integer()

              Creates  a  caret with the given size (in pixels) and associates it with the window
              (same as the equivalent constructors).

       getBlinkTime() -> integer()

              Returns the blink time which is measured in milliseconds and is  the  time  elapsed
              between  2  inversions  of  the  caret (blink time of the caret is the same for all
              carets, so this functions is static).

       getPosition(This) -> {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()

       getSize(This) -> {W :: integer(), H :: integer()}

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()

       getWindow(This) -> wxWindow:wxWindow()

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()

              Get the window the caret is associated with.

       hide(This) -> ok

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()

              Hides the caret, same as Show(false).

       isOk(This) -> boolean()

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()

              Returns true if the caret was created successfully.

       isVisible(This) -> boolean()

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()

              Returns true if the caret is visible and false if it is permanently hidden  (if  it
              is  blinking  and not shown currently but will be after the next blink, this method
              still returns true).

       move(This, Pt) -> ok

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()
                 Pt = {X :: integer(), Y :: integer()}

       move(This, X, Y) -> ok

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()
                 X = Y = integer()

              Move the caret to given position (in logical coordinates).

       setBlinkTime(Milliseconds) -> ok

              Types:

                 Milliseconds = integer()

              Sets the blink time for all the carets.

              Warning: Under Windows, this function will change the blink  time  for  all  carets
              permanently  (until  the  next  time  it  is  called),  even  for  carets  in other
              applications.

              See: getBlinkTime/0

       setSize(This, Size) -> ok

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()
                 Size = {W :: integer(), H :: integer()}

       setSize(This, Width, Height) -> ok

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()
                 Width = Height = integer()

              Changes the size of the caret.

       show(This) -> ok

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()

       show(This, Options :: [Option]) -> ok

              Types:

                 This = wxCaret()
                 Option = {show, boolean()}

              Shows or hides the caret.

              Notice that if the caret was hidden N times, it must be shown N times  as  well  to
              reappear on the screen.

       destroy(This :: wxCaret()) -> ok

              Destroys the object.
