kill() allows now paint with defined colors over rendered objects
without restore of background. It's similar to paintBackgroundBoxRel()
known from CFrameBuffer, but with possiblity to define color,
default color is 0 like before (empty background).
Items with parent bindings use the background color of its parent
as default, but can also be ignored.
This function can be useful before repaint of items and/or,
if required, to have a clean background inside item containers.
Use strictly CComponentsForm as parent parameter in constructors.
Some parts have been cleaned up (Constructors, init methodes removed)
New parameter makes it possible already add current item in constructor.
So in mostly situations is it not necessary to use explicit addCCItem(),
but addCCItem()is still valid and necessary in certain situations.
Affected are all cc-classes and their derivates.
Some classes must or can be adapted later. The function is
not currently restricted, because usage of parent parameter is not explicit
defined in constructors, see CImageInfo, here yet are used addCCItem()
methodes.
Generally this parameter is located in the constructors before bool has_shadow,
but it is not sure whether it would be better to use this parameter as the first.
That remains to be clarified.
So it's possible to use this method for all cc-items.
setCenterPos() comes now with parameter 'along_mode' (CC_ALONG_X, CC_ALONG_Y).
So it's possible to center in x or y direction. As default are
both directions predefined.
The real position already used here, if item is bound to a parent.
(bound or embedded means: added with addCCItem() to a form)
This causes no separate calculation in paint methodes of embedded
sub items or sub forms and more nested sub forms.
CComponentsForm have also some new members
- exchangeCCItem() to exchange the order items
- setAppendOffset() to set an offset for auto append mode
Autoappend is enabled if x or y have value -1 (defined also in CC_APPEND)
x=horizontal, y=vertical
Is this activated, no separate calculation of incremental offset
is required.
However items with independent rendered parts, needs
a separate calculation. In some subclasses was this necessary.
There was some problems with restore, hide, clean and save background of item parts,
seen in detailsline. kill() worked not really clean.
kill() works now as virtual member and uses paintBackgroundBoxRel().
In consequence of which:
-unnecessary members in subclasses removed.
-add some comments
Pointer is typically of type CComponentsForm or derived classes,
default intialized with NULL and serves to access for
properties of parent object by embedded items.
If items are used in forms it can be usefully to have a variable
which contains the real position on screen.
This can happen e.g. if an item contains separate render methods, because within forms
usual x/y values related to form dimensions and be converted.
It's easier to work with smaller files.
Most files contain only one cc-class and their names are
derived on the particular class that is contained therein.
