notcurses_multiselector(3) notcurses_multiselector(3) NAME notcurses_multiselector - high level widget for selecting from a set SYNOPSIS #include <notcurses/notcurses.h> struct ncplane; struct notcurses; struct ncmultiselector; struct ncmselector_item { const char* option; const char* desc; }; typedef struct ncmultiselector_options { const char* title; // title may be NULL, inhibiting riser const char* secondary; // secondary may be NULL const char* footer; // footer may be NULL struct ncmselector_item* items; // initial items, statuses // default item (selected at start) unsigned defidx; // maximum number of options to display at once unsigned maxdisplay; // exhaustive styling options uint64_t opchannels; // option channels uint64_t descchannels; // description channels uint64_t titlechannels;// title channels uint64_t footchannels; // secondary and footer channels uint64_t boxchannels; // border channels uint64_t flags; // bitfield over NCMULTISELECTOR_OPTION_* } ncmultiselector_options; struct ncmultiselector* ncmultiselector_create(struct ncplane* n, const nc- multiselector_options* opts); int ncmultiselector_selected(bool* selected, unsigned n); struct ncplane* ncmultiselector_plane(struct ncmultiselector* n); bool ncmultiselector_offer_input(struct ncmultiselector* n, const ncinput* nc); void ncmultiselector_destroy(struct ncmultiselector* n); DESCRIPTION A multiselector widget presents a list of items (possibly more than can be displayed at once). It facilitates a choice of zero, one, or multiple items from the list. Items can be selected and deselected before a final choice is made. NOTES The ncplane n provided to ncmultiselector_create must not be NULL. It will be freely resized by the new ncmultiselector. ncmultiselector_selected returns the index of the option currently high- lighted. It stores to the n-ary bitmap pointed to by selected based on the currently-selected options. ncmultiselector_plane will return the ncplane on which the widget is drawn. Input should be run through ncmultiselector_offer_input to take advantage of common controls. It will handle the up and down arrows, along with PageUp and PageDown. If the mouse is enabled, the mouse scrollwheel and mouse clicks on the scroll arrows will be handled. ncmultiselector_destroy destroys the backing ncplane, as does ncmultiselec- tor_create in the event of any error. As no flags exist, the flags option ought always be 0. RETURN VALUES ncmultiselector_create returns NULL on an error, in which case the passed ncplane is destroyed. ncmultiselector_selected returns -1 if there are no items, or if n is not equal to the number of items. It otherwise returns the index of the cur- rently highlighted option, and writes a bitmap to selected based off the selected items.
