Have Your Window Do The Splits

Split Personality

As I was looking in chapter two of Inside Macintosh, Vol. I, I saw a sweet little interface under the heading “Splitting a Window.” I thought about that interface and decided it would be nice to create a split bar in a window. So, I set out to write a control definition for the split bar and a short little demo to see what additional support was needed by the application.

The Split Bar Interface

A split bar is used to divide a window into two or more views of a document. The split bar creates and readjusts scroll bars on top and bottom of the split bar as it is moved. This allows the user to scroll each view, called a “pane,” to different areas (See Figure 1). Many word processing and spreadsheet applications use split bars.

For example, at program start up, there is one scroll bar and a black rectangle (the split bar) directly above it and beneath the drag bar of the window. The user then clicks on the split bar and drags it across the top of the scroll bar. As he releases the split bar, the scroll bar’s top is brought down on the screen just under the split bar again and another scroll bar above the split bar fills the space left by moving the split bar. As the user continues to move the split bar up or down, the top and bottom scroll bars are adjusted in height accordingly.

Figure 1.

The Split Bar CDEF

The split bar functions like a scroll bar with only a thumb. In some ways, it is easier than a normal scroll bar to create. For example, there is no concern for page up/down or line up/down-- only a thumb routine (which is not very easy until you know how). I include two variations of the CDEF for both horizontal (1) and vertical (2) split bars.

The CDEF for a split bar is somewhere between the complexity of a normal button and a scroll bar. If you read up on defining your own controls (Inside Macintosh, Vol. I, Chapter 10), there are nine routines that your control function may or may not need to handle. Most of the routines I, and others, have covered before in previous issues of MacTutor (Vol. 5, No. 1 and 4). I will only examine those parts that apply to the split bar.

calcCRgns Message

This message asks the CDEF to calculate the region of the control or indicators and store it in the region handle supplied in the param parameter. Upon entry, you test param to see if the high bit is set. If it is, you give the region for the indicator, and if not, you give the region of the control.

The region of the control is its enclosing rectangle. This rectangle extends the length of the window. This area is the same, except for a few areas, as the area the two scroll bars occupy. (See Figure 2).

Figure 2 Scroll and Split Bars

Stacking controls is not a good idea (how do you know which control you are in?). But, since the Split Bar CDEF only reports a mouse down in the indicator, which is not covered, we have no problem knowing which control was pressed.

Now if the message wants the region of the thumb indicator, it is because it is about to be dragged around the screen with DragGrayRgn. Rather than just the region of the thumb, I decided to give additional, visual interface to the user by dragging a rectangular gray region across the window along with the thumb. In the application, I draw a couple lines across the screen to separate the panes, and this gives the feel that these two lines are part of the control. Calculating this other region is easy since all points are known.

thumbCntl Message

This message is another routine used as a precursor to dragging an image of the thumb. The param parameter is a pointer to the following record:

thumbinfo = record;
 limitRect : Rect;
 trackRect : Rect;
 axis : integer;
end;

This record has the same meaning as that of the DragControl procedure. limitRect confines the movement of the indicator itself; trackRect defines the rectangle where the indicator will track with the mouse (these two are just the control’s rectangle); and axis determines tracking constraints-- 1 for horizontal, 2 for vertical, and 0 for none. Notice that the axis constraints are the same as the variation of the control (I did not implement a 0 variation).

posCntl Message

After the thumb has been dragged all over, the CDEF is called again with a posCntl message to reposition the thumb. You must erase the old position of the indicator which I do with a flag sent to my draw routine and invalidating the place where the indicator was.

The next step is to figure out the new value of the control. Our friend, param, is typecasted to a point and holds the relative offset both horizontal and vertical. The new value of the control is the old value plus the offset, minus any amount that goes out of bounds. Finally, the control is drawn at its new value.

Other Messages

The initCntl message just sets the contrlAction field of the control to nil. The drawCntl message holds nothing mysterious that hasn’t been covered before. There is nothing done for the dispCntl, dragCntl, and autoTrack messages. The latter two messages are for further customizing your control.

The Split Bar Demo

I decided to write a simple Text Edit demo using a vertical split bar. The user could pull the split bar up and down, resize the window, scroll each pane independently, do editing in either pane, and see updates if applicable in both panes. This was certainly a mouthful.

I tried to think about how to handle text in the two panes. I could keep two Text Edit records identical except for view and destination rectangles, or I could use one record and just switch the view and destination rectangles when needed. I decided to implement the latter version. Although separate TE records would have made it simpler to develop and not taken too much memory, I thought that this demo could have easily been a spreadsheet or a drawing application where the document might be too much to duplicate (what if there were a possibility of four or even nine panes?).

The next step was to readjust the view rectangles and scroll bars when the split bar was moved. Since the value of the split bar control was in pixels, this presented no problems. I just adjusted the bottom of the top TE view rectangle by the split bar value and the lower TE view rectangle by split bar value and the indicator width. I also did the same with the scroll bars. In fact, I used the same routines to fix the view rectangles and scroll bar heights when the window was grown as when the split bar was moved.

There was the problem of when the height of the scroll bar was less than what was needed to draw the scroll bar properly. So if the height was smaller, I made the control invisible. I also restricted the growing of the window as to leave a minimum space from the split bar. Therefore, if the height did not allow a scroll bar to be drawn correctly, it was not drawn, and the user could not scroll that pane.

Besides responding to the grow and split bar, each pane must respond to editing such as cut, copy, paste, and keyboard input. The standard procedure is used in the active pane and then the other pane is invalidated to take care of updating in the update procedure.

The pane where the action such as scrolling and editing happens is quite easy to figure out. The scroll bars have a pane associated with it. They switch the TE record to the proper pane, scroll the TE record, and then reset the TE record back to the active pane. Mouse downs in the content region see which pane they are in and then switch the active pane. I also do automatic scrolling to the selection for the active pane only (the non active pane only moves when scrolled by its scroll bar or by major editing).

The updating of the window is easy to accomplish. Simply switch panes and do a TEUpdate call to both panes.

That is about it, the demo is pretty much your standard TE demo you have seen before. You simply switch the view and destination rectangles, duplicate or update the other, and then switch back to the active pane. You will also notice several TEActivates and TEDeactives throughout the source code. I found that the blinking insertion point would stay around if you switched between panes or typed while it was drawn. The solution was to turn it off, switch panes or edit, and then turn it back on.

Improvements

I limited the demo to a single, vertical split bar. To improve the demo, you could include a horizontal split bar making a possibility of four panes. You might even want to add multiple split bars to the horizontal and/or vertical dimensions. This could give you to nine panes if you have two horizontal and two vertical split bars. There would be the problem of keeping a split bar invisible if it was covered by another split bar.

There is one minor bug I could not track down. On starting the demo after the Mac has been restarted, the indicator’s outline is not drawn when it is dragged. However, if you click on the drag bar of the window, creating a window outline, then the indicator outline appears from then on, until the Mac is restarted. I tried fixing this but could not do so. If any of the readers have any insight, please write me at MacTutor, and I’ll relay the information in the letters column.

The CDEF allows horizontal and vertical variations (1 and 2). These numbers follow the axis constraints for dragging the thumb. How about a combined horizontal and vertical split bar which would have a variation code of 0 (no constraint)? This could be used for maybe a new and improved combined scrolling. The CDEF could be used for other things such as T bars for drawing programs.

All this is left as an “exercise to the reader.” Good luck! Now your windows will have the same type of personality as the developer--split.
