CHAPTER 29. PANES

The pane class that is used to implement a title pane. The default display function for panes of
this type is display-title.

For title-pane, the default for :display-time is t and the default for :scroll-bars is nil.

=> pointer-documentation-pane [Service Pane]
The pane class that is used to implement the pointer documentation pane.

For pointer-documentation-pane, the default for :display-time is nil and the default for
:scroll-bars is nil.

29.4.3 Making CLIM Application Panes

Most CLIM application panes will contain more information than can be displayed in the allo-
cated space, so scroll bars are nearly always desirable. CLIM therefore provides a convenient
form for creating composite panes that include the CLIM stream pane, scroll bars, labels, and
so forth.

=> make-clim-stream-pane &rest options &key type label scroll-bars &allow-other-keys [Function]
Creates a pane of type type, which defaults to clim-stream-pane. If label is supplied, it is a
string used to label the pane. scroll-bars may be t to indicate that both vertical and horizontal
scroll bars should be included, :vertical (the default) to indicate that vertical scroll bars should
be included, or :horizontal to indicate that horizontal scroll bars should be included.

The other options may include all of the valid CLIM application pane options.

=> make-clim-interactor-pane &rest options [Function]
Like make-clim-stream-pane, except that the type is forced to be interactor-pane.

=> make-clim-application-pane &rest options [Function]
Like make-clim-stream-pane, except that the type is forced to be application-pane.

29.4.4 CLIM Application Pane Functions

The following functions can be called on any pane that is a subclass of clim-stream-pane. (Such
a pane is often simply referred to as a window.) These are provided purely as a convenience for
programmers.

=> window-clear window [Generic Function]
Clears the entire drawing plane by filling it with the background design of the CLIM stream
pane window. If window has an output history, that is cleared as well. The text cursor position
