new(inheritedfromCurses::Widgets)
$tm = Curses::Widgets::ListBox->new({
COLUMNS => [0, 5, 10, 3, 3],
LISTITEMS => [@list],
HEADERS => [@headers],
HEADERCOLFG => 'white',
HEADERCOLBG => 'green',
BIGHEADER => 1,
});
All of the same key values apply here as they do for the parent class Curses::Widgets::ListBox. In
addition, the following new keys are defined:
Key Default Description
============================================================
COLUMNS [] Column widths
LISTITEMS [] List of list values
HEADERS [] Column header labels
HEADERFGCOL undef Header foreground colour
HEADERBGCOL undef Header background colour
BIGHEADER 0 Use more graphics for the header
KEYINDX 0 Index of key column
If headers are defined but one or both of the header colours are not, then they will default to the
widget fore and background.
NOTE: Headers take up more lines in addition to the border (one line for the normal, small header, two
lines for the larger). You need to take that into account when setting the geometry. If no labels are
passed in the HEADERS array, no space will be used for the headers.
The KEYINDX value is currently only used to match keystrokes against for quick navigation.
draw
$lb->draw($mwh, 1);
The draw method renders the list box in its current state. This requires a valid handle to a curses
window in which it will render itself. The optional second argument, if true, will cause the field's
text cursor to be rendered as well.
