tutorial_table_01

In this example we add four labels to a homogeneous table that has a padding of 5px between cells.

The interesting bits from this example are:

• Where we set the table as homogeneous and the padding:

     elm_table_padding_set(table, 5, 5);
     elm_table_homogeneous_set(table, EINA_TRUE);

• Where we add each label to the table:

     elm_table_pack(table, label, 0, 0, 1, 1);
     elm_table_pack(table, label, 1, 0, 1, 1);
     elm_table_pack(table, label, 0, 1, 1, 1);
     elm_table_pack(table, label, 1, 1, 1, 1);

  Here you can see the full source:

  //Compile with:
  //gcc -g table_example_01.c -o table_example_01 `pkg-config --cflags --libs elementary`
   
  #include <Elementary.h>
   
  EAPI_MAIN int
  elm_main(int argc EINA_UNUSED, char **argv EINA_UNUSED)
  {
     Evas_Object *win, *label, *table;
   
     elm_policy_set(ELM_POLICY_QUIT, ELM_POLICY_QUIT_LAST_WINDOW_CLOSED);
   
     win = elm_win_util_standard_add("table", "Table");
     elm_win_autodel_set(win, EINA_TRUE);
   
     table = elm_table_add(win);
     elm_win_resize_object_add(win, table);
     evas_object_show(table);
     elm_table_padding_set(table, 5, 5);
     elm_table_homogeneous_set(table, EINA_TRUE);
   
     label = elm_label_add(win);
     elm_object_text_set(label, "label 0");
     evas_object_show(label);
     elm_table_pack(table, label, 0, 0, 1, 1);
   
     label = elm_label_add(win);
     elm_object_text_set(label, "label 1");
     evas_object_show(label);
     elm_table_pack(table, label, 1, 0, 1, 1);
   
     label = elm_label_add(win);
     elm_object_text_set(label, "label 2");
     evas_object_show(label);
     elm_table_pack(table, label, 0, 1, 1, 1);
   
     label = elm_label_add(win);
     elm_object_text_set(label, "label 3");
     evas_object_show(label);
     elm_table_pack(table, label, 1, 1, 1, 1);
   
     evas_object_show(win);
   
     elm_run();
   
     return 0;
  }
  ELM_MAIN()

Our example will look like this:
