|

|
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
The QAccel class handles keyboard accelerator and shortcut keys.
|
||
|
|
<p>
|
||
|
|
<p> A keyboard accelerator triggers an action when a certain key
|
||
|
|
combination is pressed. The accelerator handles all keyboard
|
||
|
|
activity for all the children of one top-level widget, so it is
|
||
|
|
not affected by the <a href="focus.html#keyboard-focus">keyboard focus</a>.
|
||
|
|
<p> In most cases, you will not need to use this class directly. Use
|
||
|
|
the <a href="qaction.html">QAction</a> class to create actions with accelerators that can be
|
||
|
|
used in both menus and toolbars. If you're only interested in
|
||
|
|
menus use <a href="qmenudata.html#insertItem">QMenuData::insertItem</a>() or <a href="qmenudata.html#setAccel">QMenuData::setAccel</a>() to make
|
||
|
|
accelerators for operations that are also available on menus. Many
|
||
|
|
widgets automatically generate accelerators, such as <a href="qbutton.html">QButton</a>,
|
||
|
|
<a href="qgroupbox.html">QGroupBox</a>, <a href="qlabel.html">QLabel</a> (with <a href="qlabel.html#setBuddy">QLabel::setBuddy</a>()), <a href="qmenubar.html">QMenuBar</a> and <a href="qtabbar.html">QTabBar</a>.
|
||
|
|
Example:
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
<a href="qpushbutton.html">QPushButton</a> p( "&Exit", parent ); // automatic shortcut ALT+Key_E
|
||
|
|
<a href="qpopupmenu.html">QPopupMenu</a> *fileMenu = new fileMenu( parent );
|
||
|
|
fileMenu-><a href="qmenudata.html#insertItem">insertItem</a>( "Undo", parent, SLOT(undo()), CTRL+Key_Z );
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p> A QAccel contains a list of accelerator items that can be
|
||
|
|
manipulated using <a href="#insertItem">insertItem</a>(), <a href="#removeItem">removeItem</a>(), <a href="#clear">clear</a>(), <a href="#key">key</a>() and
|
||
|
|
<a href="#findKey">findKey</a>().
|
||
|
|
<p> Each accelerator item consists of an identifier and a <a href="qkeysequence.html">QKeySequence</a>. A single key sequence consists of a keyboard code
|
||
|
|
combined with modifiers (<a href="qt.html#Modifier-enum">SHIFT</a>, <a href="qt.html#Modifier-enum">CTRL</a>, <a href="qt.html#Modifier-enum">ALT</a> or <a href="qt.html#Modifier-enum">UNICODE_ACCEL</a>). For example, <tt>CTRL + Key_P</tt> could be a shortcut
|
||
|
|
for printing a document. The key codes are listed in <a href="qnamespace-h.html">qnamespace.h</a>. As an alternative, use <a href="qt.html#Modifier-enum">UNICODE_ACCEL</a> with the
|
||
|
|
unicode code point of the character. For example, <tt>UNICODE_ACCEL + 'A'</tt> gives the same accelerator as <a href="qt.html#Key-enum">Key_A</a>.
|
||
|
|
<p> When an accelerator key is pressed, the accelerator sends out the
|
||
|
|
signal <a href="#activated">activated</a>() with a number that identifies this particular
|
||
|
|
accelerator item. Accelerator items can also be individually
|
||
|
|
connected, so that two different keys will activate two different
|
||
|
|
slots (see <a href="#connectItem">connectItem</a>() and <a href="#disconnectItem">disconnectItem</a>()).
|
||
|
|
<p> The activated() signal is <em>not</em> emitted when two or more
|
||
|
|
accelerators match the same key. Instead, the first matching
|
||
|
|
accelerator sends out the <a href="#activatedAmbiguously">activatedAmbiguously</a>() signal. By
|
||
|
|
pressing the key multiple times, users can navigate between all
|
||
|
|
matching accelerators. Some standard controls like <a href="qpushbutton.html">QPushButton</a> and
|
||
|
|
<a href="qcheckbox.html">QCheckBox</a> connect the activatedAmbiguously() signal to the
|
||
|
|
harmless setFocus() slot, whereas activated() is connected to a
|
||
|
|
slot invoking the button's action. Most controls, like <a href="qlabel.html">QLabel</a> and
|
||
|
|
<a href="qtabbar.html">QTabBar</a>, treat activated() and activatedAmbiguously() as
|
||
|
|
equivalent.
|
||
|
|
<p> Use <a href="#setEnabled">setEnabled</a>() to enable or disable all the items in an
|
||
|
|
accelerator, or <a href="#setItemEnabled">setItemEnabled</a>() to enable or disable individual
|
||
|
|
items. An item is active only when both the QAccel and the item
|
||
|
|
itself are enabled.
|
||
|
|
<p> The function <a href="#setWhatsThis">setWhatsThis</a>() specifies a help text that appears
|
||
|
|
when the user presses an accelerator key in What's This mode.
|
||
|
|
<p> The accelerator will be deleted when <em>parent</em> is deleted,
|
||
|
|
and will consume relevant key events until then.
|
||
|
|
<p> Please note that the accelerator
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
accelerator->insertItem( QKeySequence("M") );
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
can be triggered with both the 'M' key, and with Shift+M,
|
||
|
|
unless a second accelerator is defined for the Shift+M
|
||
|
|
combination.
|
||
|
|
<p> Example:
|
||
|
|
<pre>
|
||
|
|
QAccel *a = new QAccel( myWindow ); // create accels for myWindow
|
||
|
|
a-><a href="#connectItem">connectItem</a>( a-><a href="#insertItem">insertItem</a>(Key_P+CTRL), // adds Ctrl+P accelerator
|
||
|
|
myWindow, // connected to myWindow's
|
||
|
|
SLOT(printDoc()) ); // printDoc() slot
|
||
|

</pre>

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p> Of course, you can also send a signal as <em>member</em>.
|
||
|
|
<p> Normally accelerators are connected to slots which then receive
|
||
|
|
the <tt>activated(int id)</tt> signal with the id of the accelerator
|
||
|
|
item that was activated. If you choose to connect a specific
|
||
|
|
accelerator item using this function, the <a href="#activated">activated</a>() signal is
|
||
|
|
emitted if the associated key sequence is pressed but no <tt>activated(int id)</tt> signal is emitted.

<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setEnabled"></a>QAccel::setEnabled ( bool enable )
|
||
|
|
</h3>
|
||
|
|
Enables the accelerator if <em>enable</em> is TRUE, or disables it if <em>enable</em> is FALSE.
|
||
|
|
<p> Individual keys can also be enabled or disabled using
|
||
|
|
<a href="#setItemEnabled">setItemEnabled</a>(). To work, a key must be an enabled item in an
|
||
|
|
enabled QAccel.
|
||
|
|
<p> <p>See also <a href="#isEnabled">isEnabled</a>() and <a href="#setItemEnabled">setItemEnabled</a>().

|
|
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setItemEnabled"></a>QAccel::setItemEnabled ( int id, bool enable )
|
||
|
|
</h3>
|
||
|
|
Enables the accelerator item with the identifier <em>id</em> if <em>enable</em> is TRUE, and disables item <em>id</em> if <em>enable</em> is FALSE.
|
||
|
|
<p> To work, an item must be enabled and be in an enabled QAccel.
|
||
|
|
<p> <p>See also <a href="#isItemEnabled">isItemEnabled</a>() and <a href="#isEnabled">isEnabled</a>().

<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setWhatsThis"></a>QAccel::setWhatsThis ( int id, const <a href="qstring.html">QString</a> & text )
|
||
|
|
</h3>
|
||
|
|
Sets a What's This help text for the accelerator item <em>id</em> to <em>text</em>.
|
||
|
|
<p> The text will be shown when the application is in What's This mode
|
||
|
|
and the user hits the accelerator key.
|
||
|
|
<p> To set What's This help on a menu item (with or without an
|
||
|
|
accelerator key), use <a href="qmenudata.html#setWhatsThis">QMenuData::setWhatsThis</a>().
|
||
|
|
<p> <p>See also <a href="#whatsThis">whatsThis</a>(), <a href="qwhatsthis.html#inWhatsThisMode">QWhatsThis::inWhatsThisMode</a>(), <a href="qmenudata.html#setWhatsThis">QMenuData::setWhatsThis</a>(), and <a href="qaction.html#whatsThis-prop">QAction::whatsThis</a>.

<h3 class=fn><a href="qkeysequence.html">QKeySequence</a> <a name="shortcutKey"></a>QAccel::shortcutKey ( const <a href="qstring.html">QString</a> & str )<tt> [static]</tt>
|
||
|
|
</h3>
|
||
|
|
Returns the shortcut key sequence for <em>str</em>, or an invalid key
|
||
|
|
sequence (0) if <em>str</em> has no shortcut sequence.
|
||
|
|
<p> For example, <a href="#shortcutKey">shortcutKey</a>("E&xit") returns ALT+Key_X,
|
||
|
|
shortcutKey("&Quit") returns ALT+Key_Q and shortcutKey("Quit")
|
||
|
|
returns 0. (In code that does not inherit the Qt namespace class,
|
||
|
|
you must write e.g. Qt::ALT+Qt::Key_Q.)
|
||
|
|
<p> We provide a <a href="accelerators.html">list of common accelerators</a> in English. At the time of writing, Microsoft and Open
|

|
|
Group do not appear to have issued equivalent recommendations for
|
||
|
|
other languages.

<h3 class=fn><a href="qkeysequence.html">QKeySequence</a> <a name="stringToKey"></a>QAccel::stringToKey ( const <a href="qstring.html">QString</a> & s )<tt> [static]</tt>
|

|
|
</h3><b>This function is obsolete.</b> It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
|
||
|
|
<p> Returns an accelerator code for the string <em>s</em>. For example
|
||
|
|
"Ctrl+O" gives CTRL+UNICODE_ACCEL+'O'. The strings "Ctrl",
|
||
|
|
"Shift", "Alt" are recognized, as well as their translated
|
||
|
|
equivalents in the "QAccel" context (using <a href="qobject.html#tr">QObject::tr</a>()). Returns 0
|
||
|
|
if <em>s</em> is not recognized.
|
||
|
|
<p> This function is typically used with <a href="qobject.html#tr">tr</a>(), so that accelerator keys can be replaced in
|
||
|
|
translations:
|
||
|
|
<p> <pre>
|
||
|
|
<a href="qpopupmenu.html">QPopupMenu</a> *file = new <a href="qpopupmenu.html">QPopupMenu</a>( this );
|
||
|
|
file-><a href="qmenudata.html#insertItem">insertItem</a>( p1, tr("&Open..."), this, SLOT(open()),
|
||
|
|
QAccel::<a href="#stringToKey">stringToKey</a>(<a href="qobject.html#tr">tr</a>("Ctrl+O", "File|Open")) );
|
||
|
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p> Notice the <tt>"File|Open"</tt> translator comment. It is by no means
|
||
|
|
necessary, but it provides some context for the human translator.
|
||
|
|
<p> The function is superfluous. Construct a <a href="qkeysequence.html">QKeySequence</a> from the
|
||
|
|
string <em>s</em> for the same effect.
|
||
|
|
<p> <p>See also <a href="qobject.html#tr">QObject::tr</a>() and <a href="i18n.html">Internationalization with Qt</a>.

|
|
<p>Example: <a href="i18n-example.html#x1921">i18n/mywidget.cpp</a>.
|

|
|
<h3 class=fn><a href="qstring.html">QString</a> <a name="whatsThis"></a>QAccel::whatsThis ( int id ) const
|
||
|
|
</h3>
|
||
|
|
Returns the What's This help text for the specified item <em>id</em> or
|
||
|
|
<a href="qstring.html#QString-null">QString::null</a> if no text has been specified.
