Selection¶

Qualified name: delphifmx.Selection

class Selection¶

Bases: Control

TSelection defines 2D rectangle object that can be moved and resized. It inherits TControl and can be used in styles to construct controls. You can use scaling factors Scale of the TSelection object to proportionally change coordinates of a selection object’s rectangle along local coordinate axes. Scaling moves the selection rectangle and change its size. The rotation axis RotationCenter and rotation angle RotationAngle of the selection object can also be used to modify the selection rectangle’s size and position. The Paint method renders the TSelection image. Paint internally defines the properties of the drawing pen to draw the selection contour and the brush to fill the background depending on whether the control is enabled, the zone is hot, and other conditions. To resize the TSelection rectangle you can use four grip controls. Grip controls appear as small circles at the selection rectangle corners when the mouse pointer hovers over the grip controls.

AbsoluteToLocal()¶: Converts the screen coordinates of a specified point on the screen to client coordinates.

Align¶

Specifies the alignment options (top, left, client, and so on) of this control. Use Align to automatically set the alignment of the current control. Setting Align to a value different than None can affect the position, size (height and width), and anchors of the control. By default, Align is set to None. Descendants of TControl typically set the visibility and value for the Align property. For example, for TToolBar, Align defaults to TAlignLayout.Top. To see the possible values for Align and their visible effects over the control, see FMX.Types.TAlignLayout. Controls that have the Align or Anchors properties set can use a Scale that is different from the default (1,1), so that controls align together even when they have a custom scale.

Type:: AlignLayout

Anchors¶

Specifies how the control is anchored to its parent. Use Anchors to ensure that a control maintains its current position relative to the edges of its parent, even if the parent is resized. When its parent is resized, the control holds its position relative to the edges to which it is anchored. Anchors is enforced only when the parent control is resized. If a control is anchored to opposite edges at the same time, the control stretches horizontally or vertically to maintain constant the distance between the control edges and parent edges. If a control is anchored to all four edges of its parent, the control stretches in all directions. By default, a control is anchored to the top and left edges of its container (Anchors=[akTop,akLeft]). The automatic alignment may affect the anchors of a control. When Align is set to None, all the anchors are available. If Align is not None, the anchors affected by the automatic alignment are excluded. Changing the state of the anchors affected by the automatic alignment has no effect over the control. Controls that have the Align or Anchors properties set can use a Scale that is different from the default (1,1), so that controls align together even when they have a custom scale.

Type:: Anchors

BringToFront()¶: Puts the control in front of all other controls in its parent control.

CanFocus()¶: Indicates whether a control can receive focus.

ClipChildren¶

Specifies if children of the control should be clipped to the control’s on-screen region. Set ClipChildren to

True if you want child controls to be clipped to the control’s on-screen region. False if you want child controls to be able to extend beyond the region of the parent control.

Type:: bool

ClipParent¶

Specifies whether the current control has clipped its parent. When ClipParent is True, TControl cuts off the portion of the parent that lies under the control when the control is painted by the Paint and Painting methods. Parts of the control that do not contain visible objects cut off holes in the parent’s image. ClipParent is ignored in PaintChildren and other painting methods. If one parent has more that one child control having ClipParent equals True, then only one of these child controls is painted with ClipParent equals True. Others child controls are painted as if ClipParent equals False.

Type:: bool

Color¶

Selection frame and handle’s border color.

Type:: int

Controls¶: Returns an iterator over contained controls

ControlsCount¶: Returns the count of contained controls

Cursor¶

Image to use to represent the mouse pointer when it passes into the region covered by the control. Change the value of Cursor to provide feedback to the user when the mouse pointer enters the control. For a list of cursor constants, see System.UITypes Constants. The image representations of the cursor depend on the theme active on the current platform. If Cursor is set to the default cursor, this control might display a different cursor when the mouse pointer is over it. The actual cursor that this control displays is the cursor defined in InheritedCursor, a read-only property that is calculated based not only in the value of Cursor in this control, but also the value of Cursor in any ancestor of this control (parent, grand-parent, and so on until the parent form).

Type:: int

DoMouseLeave()¶: DoMouseLeave is called automatically when the mouse pointer leaves the TSelection object. DoMouseLeave of the TSelection object calls the inherited FMX.Controls.TControl.DoMouseLeave method which starts animation by calling StartTriggerAnimation, applies effects by calling ApplyTriggerEffect, and calls the FMX.Controls.TControl.OnMouseLeave event handler. Then DoMouseLeave frees the grip controls. Finally, DoMouseLeave initializes the TSelection shape repaint operation. Override the protected DoMouseLeave method to provide other responses when the mouse pointer leaves the TSelection object.

DragMode¶

Specifies how the control initiates drag-and-drop operations. Use DragMode to control when the user can drag the control. Disable the drag-and-drop capability at run time by setting the DragMode property value to dmManual. Enable automatic dragging by setting DragMode to dmAutomatic.

Type:: DragMode

EnableDragHighlight¶

Specifies whether the control is highlighted when the dragged object is over it.

Type:: bool

Enabled¶

Specifies whether the control responds to mouse, keyboard, and timer events. Use Enabled to change the availability of the control to the user. To disable a control, set Enabled to False. Some disabled controls appear dimmed (for example: buttons, check boxes, labels), while others (container controls) simply lose their functionality without changing their appearance. If Enabled is set to False, the control ignores mouse, keyboard, and timer events. To re-enable a control, set Enabled to True. This property applies to all TControl descendants.

Type:: bool

GripSize¶

Defines the size of the grip controls used to resize the TSelection object.

Type:: float

Height¶

Height specifies the vertical size of the control (in dp). Use the Height property to read or change the height of the control.

Type:: float

HideSelection¶

Defines whether to hide the selection rectangle when the TSelection object is not selected. When HideSelection is True and the TSelection object is not selected, the rectangle and grip controls are invisible.

See also FMX.Objects.TSelection.GripSize

Type:: bool

Hint¶

Specifies the text string that appears when the user moves the mouse over a control. See Using Hints to Show Contextual Help in a FireMonkey Application for more information about hints.

Type:: str

HitTest¶

Enables the control to capture mouse events.

If you set HitTest to True, this control captures all mouse events. The example below shows the use of HitTest for an OnClick event. If you set HitTest to False, the mouse events will pass through this control, so that a control laid out behind this one receives the mouse events instead of this control. Note: The HitTest enables all mouse-related events, which also include the display of Hints and Hint-related events. For most controls, HitTest is True by default. However, this is not true for all the controls. For example, for TLabel and TPathLabel, HitTest is False by default; these two controls do not capture the mouse-related events unless you set HitTest to True.

Example of HitTest 1. On a form, place a TPanel component. 2. Inside the panel, place a TPathLabel component. 3. Implement the OnClick event for both the TPanel and the TPathLabel:

procedure TForm1.Panel1Click(Sender: TObject); begin

ShowMessage(‘OnClick event fired for TPanel’);

end;

procedure TForm1.PathLabel1Click(Sender: TObject); begin

ShowMessage(‘OnClick event fired for TPathLabel’);

end;

Set the TPathLabel HitTest property to False (this is the default setting). Run the application and click the label. The OnClick event is fired for the panel (not the label).
Set the TPathLabel HitTest property to True. Run the application and click the label. The OnClick event is fired for the TPathLabel.

Type:: bool

HotHandle¶

It grips the handle where the mouse is hovered.

Type:: Selection.TGrabHandle

IsFocused¶: Determines whether the control has input focus.

LocalToAbsolute()¶: Translates a given point from client area coordinates to global screen coordinates.

Locked¶

Specifies whether the control is locked at design time. A locked control prohibits to move the control at design time, all the other properties can be modified at design time. To lock the control, set Locked to True. By default, Locked is False, and the control can be modified at design time.

Type:: bool

Margins¶

Aligns the component to the margins points of other components. The Margins of a control are the distances (in pixels) from each edge (top, left, bottom, right) to another control within the same Parent or to the edge of its Parent. The Margins add space to the outer side of the control. It only applies for controls that do not use TAlignLayout None and the components are located to each other. If a margin is not 0, no other control will come closer to the control than the specified distance. If the distance from a Parent edge to the corresponding control edge is smaller than the specified Margins for that edge, the control is repositioned and resized, if necessary, to maintain the specified distance. If the Margins control has zero values, RAD Studio uses the default values (Left=4, Top=4, Right=4, Bottom=4). You can also set your own Margins values. It only applies to the IDE control’s guidelines, when you are dragging control. But if you use Align=Client (for example), it will use the specified values in Margins. The following image shows how Padding and Margins properties affect alignment, position, and size of controls.

Type:: Bounds

MinSize¶

Defines the minimum possible values for the width and height of the TSelection object.

Type:: int

MouseDown(Button: MouseButton, Shift: ShiftState, X: float, Y: float) → None¶

Handles the pressing of a mouse button inside the TSelection object. MouseDown calls FMX.Controls.TControl.MouseDown, checks whether any of the grip controls (small circles in the selection rectangular corners) are pointed to resize the selection shape and activate resizing by moving this control or activates moving of the TSelection object by moving the mouse pointer. MouseDown has the following parameters:

Button–belongs to the TMouseButton type and specifies the pressed mouse button: mbLeft–left, mbRight–right, or mbMiddle–middle. Shift–belongs to the TShiftState type and passes additional information such as: whether shift keys (ssShift–SHIFT, ssCtrl–CTRL, or ssAlt–ALT) were pressed when the mouse button was clicked; whether the mouse button was double-clicked (ssDouble). X and Y–are the local pixel coordinates of the mouse pointer within the TSelection object. The TForm form, owner of the TSelection object, calls MouseDown in response to mouse-down messages. Override the public MouseDown method to provide a customized response when a mouse button is pressed when the mouse pointer is over the TSelection object.

MouseMove(Shift: ShiftState, X: float, Y: float) → None¶

Handles moving of the mouse pointer over a TSelection object. As the mouse pointer moves over a TSelection object, this method is called repeatedly. It is called each time with the new mouse pointer coordinates that reflect the continuous path of the mouse pointer.

Parameters MouseMove has the following parameters:

Shift–belongs to the TShiftState type and passes additional information, such as: which mouse button was pressed (ssLeft–left, ssRight–right) or whether shift keys (ssShift–SHIFT, ssCtrl–CTRL, or ssAlt–ALT) were pressed when the mouse button was clicked. X and Y–are the local pixel coordinates of the mouse pointer within the TSelection object. Functionality MouseMove executes the following operations:

MouseMove calls the inherited FMX.Controls.TControl.MouseMove method. Then: If the mouse button is not pressed down: Check whether the mouse pointer hovers over a grip control: When the mouse pointer moves over a grip control–shows the resizing arrow on the grip control over which the mouse pointer is moving. When the mouse pointer moves outside a grip control–clears the resizing arrows, if any. Force repaint of the selection shape. If the left mouse button is pressed inside the TSelection object: Moves the shape of the TSelection object on the vector with the start point having the coordinates where the mouse button was pressed and the end point having the current coordinates of the mouse. If ParentBounds is True, the TSelection object shape is moved inside the boundaries of the parent control. If ParentBounds is False, the TSelection object shape is moved inside the boundaries of the current TCanvas object. Calls the customer event handler of the OnTrack event. If the left mouse button is pressed down on one of the grip controls of the TSelection object: The shape of the TSelection object is resized to reflect the moving of the selected grip control. If ParentBounds is True, the TSelection object shape is resized to fit the boundaries of the parent control. If ParentBounds is False, the TSelection object shape is resized to fit the boundaries of the current TCanvas object. If Proportional is True, the object shape is resized keeping the Width/Height proportion. Call the customer event handler of the OnTrack event. Force the repaint of the selection shape.

Override the public MouseMove method to provide a customized response when the mouse pointer is moved over the TSelection object.

MouseUp(Button: MouseButton, Shift: ShiftState, X: float, Y: float) → None¶

Handles the release of a mouse button pressed inside the TSelection object. MouseUp calls the inherited FMX.Controls.TControl.MouseUp. If the TSelection object is being moved or resized by the mouse, MouseUp calls the OnChange event handler, and then stops moving or resizing by the mouse. MouseUp has the following parameters:

Button–belongs to the TMouseButton type and specifies the pressed mouse button: mbLeft–left, mbRight–right, or mbMiddle–middle. Shift–belongs to the TShiftState type and passes additional information, such as whether shift keys (ssShift–SHIFT, ssCtrl–CTRL, or ssAlt–ALT) were down when the pressed mouse button was released. X and Y–are the local pixel coordinates of the mouse pointer within the TSelection object. The TForm form (owner of the TSelection object) calls MouseUp in response to mouse-up messages. Override the public MouseUp method to provide a customized response if the mouse button is released when the mouse pointer is over the TSelection object.

OnDragDrop¶: Callable[[Object, DragObject, PointF], None]:

OnDragEnter¶: Callable[[Object, DragObject, PointF], None]:

OnDragOver¶: Callable[[Object, DragObject, PointF, DragOperation], None]:

OnPaint¶: Callable[[Object, Canvas, RectF], None]:

OnPainting¶: Callable[[Object, Canvas, RectF], None]:

Opacity¶

Specifies the control opacity. Set Opacity to customize the transparency of the current control. Opacity takes values between 0 and 1. If Opacity is 1, the control is completely opaque; if it is 0, the control is completely transparent. The values over 1 are treated as 1, and the ones under 0 are treated as 0. Opacity applies to the control’s children.

Type:: float

Padding¶

Aligns the component to the padding points of other components. The Padding of a control specifies how close, in pixels, the control’s children can come to each of its edges (top, left, bottom, right). Padding adds space to the inner side of the control. The control’s children are repositioned and resized, if necessary, to maintain the Padding. If the Padding control has zero values, RAD Studio uses the default values (Left=4, Top=4, Right=4, Bottom=4). You can also set your own Padding values. The following image shows how Padding and Margins properties affect alignment, position, and size of controls.

Note: Padding constraints do not work for TScrollBox, TListBox, TTreeView, and TGrid based controls.

Type:: Bounds

ParentBounds¶

Defines whether the shape of the TSelection object should be inside the boundaries of the parent control. When ParentBounds is True, the shape of the TSelection object cannot be moved outside the boundaries of the parent control.

Type:: bool

ParentShowHint¶

If True, the value of the ShowHint property of this control inherits the value of the ShowHint property of the parent control. See Using Hints to Show Contextual Help in a FireMonkey Application - Enabling Hints for a Control for more information.

Type:: bool

PointInObjectLocal(X: float, Y: float) → bool¶

Checks whether the point specified by local coordinates belongs to the control area. FMX.Objects.TSelection.PointInObjectLocal inherits from FMX.Controls.TControl.PointInObjectLocal. All content below this line refers to FMX.Controls.TControl.PointInObjectLocal. Checks whether the point specified by local coordinates belongs to the control area. PointInObjectLocal returns True if the specified point belongs to the control area, and False otherwise. The X and Y are the local coordinates of the point to be checked (compare with PointInObject):

X is the X coordinate. Y is the Y coordinate. The local coordinates of the upper-left corner of the control rectangle are (0,0), and the local coordinates of the lower-right corner are (Width, Height). The points of the control boundary specified by BoundsRect belong to the control and PointInObjectLocal returns True for them. If a control supports the Touch property, the control area can be optionally inflated on the values specified by the TouchTargetExpansion property. TouchTargetExpansion keeps four optional parameters representing the expansion for the four sides of the control in pixels (Bottom, Left, Right, and Top). The dclasses can change the ‘control area’ definition. For example:

The FMX.Objects.TSelection class extends the ‘control area’ definition relative to BoundsRect. FMX.Objects.TSelection.PointInObjectLocal also returns True if the point belongs to any of small rectangles of the four grip controls used to manage the selection shape. The rectangles of the grip controls are rectangles surrounding the four corners of the TSelection rectangle. The Width and Height of these rectangles are equal to 2 * GripSize. For example, the grip control’s rectangle of the upper-right corner UR_Corner of TSelection is defined by the following corners: (UR_Corner.Top - GripSize, UR_Corner.Right - GripSize)–upper-left corner of the grip. (UR_Corner.Top + GripSize, UR_Corner.Right + GripSize)–lower-right corner of the grip. FMX.Objects.TSelectionPoint.PointInObjectLocal returns True if the specified point belongs to the rectangle of the grip control corresponding to the TSelectionPoint object, and False otherwise.

ResetFocus()¶: Removes the focus from a control of from any children of the control.

RotationAngle¶

Specifies the amount (in degrees) by which the control is rotated from the x-axis. Positive angles correspond to clockwise rotation. For counterclockwise rotation, use negative values. To set the rotation center, use RotationCenter.

Type:: float

RotationCenter¶

Specifies the position of the pivot point of the control. The coordinates of the rotation center take values in the range from 0 through 1. The point with the coordinates (0,0) corresponds to the upper-left corner of the control, the point with the coordinates (1,1) corresponds to the lower-right corner of the control. The default center of rotation is (0.5, 0.5). Values outside of [0,0] and [1,1] can be clipped in some descendant classes. To set the rotation angle, use RotationAngle.

Type:: Position

Scale¶

Specifies the scale of the control. Set the Scale coordinates to specify the scale on each axis. The initial scale rate is 1 on each axis.
