ISettings

All Known Subinterfaces:

ISettings2

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractSettings, DefaultSettings, GanttTester.TestSettings
```
public interface ISettings
```
This interface lets you define various settings for the GanttChart. It's highly advisable that for implementation, AbstractSettings is extended and methods needed to be changed from their defaults are overridden and changed. It would be quite a hassle to implement a full ISettings interface from scratch. In order to preserve binary compatibility, after the MinuteView implementation, this interface has been extended by ISettings2 Please refer both to ISettings and ISettings2 for any setting change.
```
 class MySettings extends AbstractSettings {
        // override your methods here
 }
 
```
Once you've overridden the settings you wish to change, simply pass an instance of your implementation class to the constructor of GanttChart: GanttChart.GanttChart(org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite, int, ISettings)

    Whether to draw fills and vertical lines etc to the bottom when GanttSections are used.
    
    Returns:
    
    true to draw everything all the way down. Default is false.
  - lockHeaderOnVerticalScroll
```
boolean lockHeaderOnVerticalScroll()
```
    Whether the header should always be visible regardless of vertical scroll position. Basically a "fixed header" feature.
    
    Returns:
    
    true whether to lock the header. Default is false.
  - showDefaultMenuItemsOnEventRightClick
```
boolean showDefaultMenuItemsOnEventRightClick()
```
    Whether to show the default set of menu items on the right click menus of events. If false, the menu will be blank allowing you to set all items from scratch.
    
    Returns:
    
    true to show default menu items along with custom ones on right click. Default is true.
    
    See Also:
    
    showMenuItemsOnRightClick(), showPropertiesMenuOption(), showDeleteMenuOption(), GanttEvent.getMenu()
  - allowScopeMenu
```
boolean allowScopeMenu()
```
    Whether scopes can show a right click menu or not. By default scopes are non-active objects that simply draw according to their children. By allowing a menu to be shown on the scope you can still perform custom events if you so wish (such as show/hide all children).
    
    Returns:
    
    true to allow menus on scopes. Default is false.
    
    See Also:
    
    GanttEvent.getMenu(), GanttEvent.showAllChildren(), GanttEvent.hideAllChildren()
  - allowHeaderSelection
```
boolean allowHeaderSelection()
```
    Whether selecting dates in the header is allowed by clicking the date. Events will be fired on selection events. Note that not all views have this feature, only those that actually show full dates, as that's where it makes most sense.
    
    Returns:
    
    true to allow header selection. Default is true.
  - zoomToMousePointerDateOnWheelZooming
```
boolean zoomToMousePointerDateOnWheelZooming()
```
    When you zoom in with the mouse, it can either act as a normal zoom (uses leftmost date as start date) or it can zoom in where the mouse pointer is at the time of the zoom in. For some the first make more sense than the other and vice versa. Default is that the zoom in is where the mouse pointer is (true).
  - getDDayRootCalendar
```
java.util.Calendar getDDayRootCalendar()
```
    It's highly suggested you use the default implementation of this method. Basically, this method needs to return a zeroed-down calendar (hours, minutes etc) that will be used as the D-day root calendar. As D-days aren't dates (except internally), this Calendar simply needs to be any "stable" date. By default it uses January 1st, [current year], 0h 0m 0s 0ms. (it uses the current year as days-between calculations otherwise get very large).
    
    Returns:
    
    Calendar
  - getDDaySplitCount
```
int getDDaySplitCount()
```
    The value where D-days have their "weeks" so to speak, this is used to calculate the numbers shown in both headers, where the top header is displaying each "set" whereas the bottom one shows numbers from 0 to the number returned by this method.
    
    Returns:
    
    Split count number. Default is 10 which shows sets from 0 to 9.
  - drawEventsDownToTheHourAndMinute
```
boolean drawEventsDownToTheHourAndMinute()
```
    If this returns true, events are never rounded up to their nearest hour/minute when shown in the chart, but will always show down to the minute even in any mid-zoomed and fully-zoomed out view (this does not do anything to the normal minute view). Default is false.
    
    Returns:
    
    true to draw event location down to the hour and minute
  - moveAndResizeOnlyDependentEventsThatAreLaterThanLinkedMoveEvent
```
boolean moveAndResizeOnlyDependentEventsThatAreLaterThanLinkedMoveEvent()
```
    If this returns true, only linked events that come after the source drag event (time/date-wise) will be moved/resized (normally all linked events are moved/resized regardless of time/date).
    
    Returns:
    
    true to only move/resize "later" events on dependent linked event moves/resizes. Default is false.
  - forceMouseWheelVerticalScroll
```
@Deprecated
boolean forceMouseWheelVerticalScroll()
```
    Deprecated. By default mousewheel now scrolls chart vertically on all platforms. To turn off, flag scrollChartVerticallyOnMouseWheel()
    
    In SWT 3.5 it seems the mousewheel is not interpreted the same as in previous versions. If you notice that when scrolling the mousewheel the chart does not actually scroll vertically, flag this to true to force it to scroll the chart. This is forced to true on *NIX machines (not Mac).
    
    Returns:
    
    true to force the mousewheel to scroll the chart. Default is false.
    
    See Also:
    
    scrollChartVerticallyOnMouseWheel()
  - getSectionTextSpacer
```
int getSectionTextSpacer()
```
    If the name of any section is so large that it basically defines the size of the section, this value is used to space out the text slightly so that the section borders don't hug the text. If you want to save on some real-estate set this value to 0.
    
    Returns:
    
    Default is 30.
  - getPhasesHeaderHeight
```
int getPhasesHeaderHeight()
```
    When drawing GanttPhases this is the header height used for displaying the names of these phases.
    
    Returns:
    
    Default is 18
  - allowPhaseOverlap
```
boolean allowPhaseOverlap()
```
    When phases are resized or moved, whether an overlap resize/move should be accepted or not. If false (default), a resize will simply stop at the next phase border, whereas a move that is dropped on top of a different phase will be undone (no event is fired for this).
    
    Returns:
    
    Default is false
  - getVerticalEventDragging
```
int getVerticalEventDragging()
```
    What style of vertical event dragging that is enabled. For the "resistance" before a vertical drag takes place you can change this with getVerticalDragResistance().
    
    Returns:
    
    One of the options in VerticalDragModes. Default is VerticalDragModes.NO_VERTICAL_DRAG
  - getVerticalDragResistance
```
int getVerticalDragResistance()
```
    For events that can be dragged vertically, this is the "resistance" in pixels before the event "lets go" of it's horizontal location. Once it's let go it will stick to the mouse cursor.
    
    Returns:
    
    A pixel range of resistance. Default is 15px.
  - onVerticalDragDropShowInsertMarker
```
boolean onVerticalDragDropShowInsertMarker()
```
    Whether an insert marker should be shown for where the dragged event will end up when a vertical drag/drop is in progress.
    
    Returns:
    
    true to show a marker. Default is true.
  - scaleImageToDayWidth
```
boolean scaleImageToDayWidth()
```
    Whether to allow an image to exceed the width of one day when zooming in / out.
    
    Returns:
    
    true to keep within day width. Default is true.
  - allowArrowKeysToScrollChart
```
boolean allowArrowKeysToScrollChart()
```
    Whether arrow keys are enabled to scroll chart left/right/up/down.
    
    Returns:
    
    true to allow arrow keys to move the chart. Default is false.
  - getNumberOfDaysToAppendForEndOfDay
```
int getNumberOfDaysToAppendForEndOfDay()
```
    Normally a day is calculated as day_starts->day_ends, which means that to make an event that starts and ends on the same day count as "anything", +1 is added by default to make the event actually show up on the chart. Should you for some reason need to override this, change this number to 0 or whatever you may need.
    
    Returns:
    
    Number of days to count for a start and end date that is the same date. Default is 1.
  - scrollChartVerticallyOnMouseWheel
```
boolean scrollChartVerticallyOnMouseWheel()
```
    Whether the chart should scroll vertically when the mouse wheel is used. If you notice excessive scrolling on SWT versions earlier than 3.5, you may want to turn this off
    
    Returns:
    
    true to scroll chart vertically. Default is true.
  - getMinZoomLevel
```
int getMinZoomLevel()
```
    Returns the minimum zoom level. Default should return MIN_ZOOM_LEVEL
    
    Returns:
  - getPeriodStart
```
java.util.Calendar getPeriodStart()
```
    Specify a period start. Returning another value than null will result in rendering an additional line to the chart indicating a period start in the gantt itself.
    
    Returns:
  - getPeriodEnd
```
java.util.Calendar getPeriodEnd()
```
    Specify a period end. Returning another value than null will result in rendering an additional line to the chart indicating a period end in the gantt itself.
    
    Returns:
  - shiftHorizontalCenteredEventString
```
boolean shiftHorizontalCenteredEventString()
```
    If you want to show the event String within the event rectangle by setting the horizontalTextLocation of the GanttEvent to SWT.CENTER, there are cases that break the visualization. If your event String is longer than the event in the Gantt, it will look quite strange.
    If this method returns true, the AbstractPaintManager will shift the rendering of the event String to the right if the String length is greater than the event rectangle.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the event String should be shifted, false if not
  - enableAddEvent
```
boolean enableAddEvent()
```
    Returns:
    
    true to enable the menu action for adding an event to the GanttChart, false if this action should not be available to the user.
  - drawEventString
```
boolean drawEventString()
```
    Global configuration to specify if the text of GanttEvents should be rendered or not. It is also possible to configure this per GanttEvent via _showText property.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the event text should be rendered, false if not.
  - alwaysDragAllEvents
```
boolean alwaysDragAllEvents()
```
    The default behaviour in GanttChart on moving an event is that only the current dragged event is moved unless you press the SHIFT key. If there are more events selected, still only the dragged one is moved if the SHIFT key is not pressed. With this configuration it is possible to specify if the old default behavior should be used or if all currently selected events should be moved even if the SHIFT key is not pressed.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if all selected events should be moved by dragging on of them false if only the current dragged event should be moved.
  - printSelectedVerticallyComplete
```
boolean printSelectedVerticallyComplete()
```
    On printing a GanttChart it is possible to select to print only the selected area. For GanttChart this means to print the currently visible area. By default currently visible means vertically AND horizontally visible. This configuration allows to specify whether the vertical part should extend to the whole chart and only the horizontal area should be limited for the visible part.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the printed chart should contain the whole chart vertically but only the horizontal visible part of the chart, false if only the visible part of the chart should be printed, horizontally AND vertically
  - printFooter
```
boolean printFooter()
```
    Configure whether a footer should be added to the print pages or not. The footer contains the page number and the date when the print was requested.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if a footer should be added to the print pages, false if not
  - drawSectionBar
```
boolean drawSectionBar()
```
    Configure whether the section bar should be rendered. It only makes sense to not render the section bar if the section details are enabled.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the section bar should be rendered, false if not
  - drawSectionDetails
```
boolean drawSectionDetails()
```
    Configure whether there should be an additional area to the section bar that shows additional section detail information.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if additional section detail information should be rendered, false if not
  - getSectionDetailWidth
```
int getSectionDetailWidth()
```
    Returns:
    
    The width of the section detail area.
  - getSectionDetailTitle
```
java.lang.String getSectionDetailTitle()
```
    The section detail area title that should be rendered in the section detail area.
    
    Returns:
    
    String or null. Default is a bold black text showing the section name.
  - getSectionDetailText
```
java.lang.String getSectionDetailText()
```
    The detail information that should be rendered in the section detail area.
    
    Returns:
    
    String or null. Default is to show the number of events in that section.
  - getSectionDetailContentReplacer
```
ISectionDetailContentReplacer getSectionDetailContentReplacer()
```
    Returns the custom section detail generator which generates the section detail out of custom data for a GanttSection.
    
    Returns:
  - showSectionDetailMore
```
boolean showSectionDetailMore()
```
    Returns:
    
    true if there should be a "more [+]" shown in the section detail area which allows to register a listener against to show more informations by e.g. opening a dialog.
  - showHolidayToolTips
```
boolean showHolidayToolTips()
```
    Configure whether a tooltip pops up when hovering the mouse over a holiday
    
    Returns:
    
    true to show a "holiday" popup with the configured name of the holiday, false if not (default)
  - fireEmptyEventSelection
```
boolean fireEmptyEventSelection()
```
    whether IGanttEventListener.eventSelected(GanttEvent, java.util.List, org.eclipse.swt.events.MouseEvent) should also be called on empty selection
    
    Returns:
    
    true to have the event fired. Default is false
