.SH DESCRIPTION
The QPopupMenu class provides a popup menu widget.
.PP
A popup menu widget is a selection menu. It can be either a pull-down menu in a menu bar or a standalone context (popup) menu. Pull-down menus are shown by the menu bar when the user clicks on the respective item or presses the specified shortcut key. Use QMenuBar::insertItem() to insert a popup menu into a menu bar. Show a context menu either asynchronously with popup() or synchronously with exec().
.PP
Technically, a popup menu consists of a list of menu items. You add items with insertItem(). An item is either a string, a pixmap or a custom item that provides its own drawing function (see QCustomMenuItem). In addition, items can have an optional icon drawn on the very left side and an accelerator key such as" Ctrl+X".
.PP
There are three kinds of menu items: separators, menu items that perform an action and menu items that show a submenu. Separators are inserted with insertSeparator(). For submenus, you pass a pointer to a QPopupMenu in your call to insertItem(). All other items are considered action items.
.PP
When inserting action items you usually specify a receiver and a slot. The receiver will be notifed whenever the item is selected. In addition, QPopupMenu provides two signals, activated() and highlighted(), which signal the identifier of the respective menu item. It is sometimes practical to connect several items to one slot. To distinguish between them, specify a slot that takes an integer argument and use setItemParameter() to associate a unique value with each item.
.PP
You clear a popup menu with clear() and remove single items with removeItem() or removeItemAt().
.PP
A popup menu can display check marks for certain items when enabled with setCheckable(TRUE). You check or uncheck items with setItemChecked().
.PP
Items are either enabled or disabled. You toggle their state with setItemEnabled(). Just before a popup menu becomes visible, it emits the aboutToShow() signal. You can use this signal to set the correct enabled/disabled states of all menu items before the user sees it. The corresponding aboutToHide() signal is emitted when the menu hides again.
.PP
You can provide What's This? help for single menu items with setWhatsThis(). See QWhatsThis for general information about this kind of lightweight online help.
.PP
For ultimate flexibility, you can also add entire widgets as items into a popup menu (for example, a color selector).
.PP
A QPopupMenu can also provide a tear-off menu. A tear-off menu is a top-level window that contains a copy of the menu. This makes it possible for the user to "tear off" frequently used menus and position them in a convenient place on the screen. If you want that functionality for a certain menu, insert a tear-off handle with insertTearOffHandle(). When using tear-off menus, bear in mind that the concept isn't typically used on Microsoft Windows so users may not be familiar with it. Consider using a QToolBar instead. Tear-off menus cannot contain custom widgets; if the original menu contains a custom widget item, this item is omitted.
.PP
menu/menu.cpp is an example of QMenuBar and QPopupMenu use.

See also QMenuBar, GUI Design Handbook: Menu, Drop-Down and Pop-Up, Main Window and Related Classes, and Basic Widgets.
Constructs a popup menu called \fIname\fR with parent \fIparent\fR.
.PP
Although a popup menu is always a top-level widget, if a parent is passed the popup menu will be deleted when that parent is destroyed (as with any other QObject).
This signal is emitted just before the popup menu is displayed. You can connect it to any slot that sets up the menu contents (e.g. to ensure that the right items are enabled).
.PP
See also aboutToHide(), setItemEnabled(), setItemChecked(), insertItem(), and removeItem().
.PP
Example: mdi/application.cpp.
.SH "QKeySequence QMenuData::accel ( int id ) const"
Returns the accelerator key that has been defined for the menu item \fIid\fR, or 0 if it has no accelerator key or if there is no such menu item.
.SH "void QPopupMenu::activated ( int id )\fC [signal]\fR"
This signal is emitted when a menu item is selected; \fIid\fR is the id of the selected item.
.PP
Normally, you connect each menu item to a single slot using QMenuData::insertItem(), but sometimes you will want to connect several items to a single slot (most often if the user selects from an array). This signal is useful in such cases.
.PP
See also highlighted() and QMenuData::insertItem().
.PP
Examples:
.)l grapher/grapher.cpp, helpviewer/helpwindow.cpp, qdir/qdir.cpp, qwerty/qwerty.cpp, scrollview/scrollview.cpp, and showimg/showimg.cpp.
.SH "void QMenuData::changeItem ( int id, const QString & text )"
Changes the text of the menu item \fIid\fR to \fItext\fR. If the item has an icon, the icon remains unchanged.
If a popup menu does not fit on the screen it lays itself out so that it does fit. It is style dependent what layout means (for example, on Windows it will use multiple columns).
.PP
This functions returns the number of columns necessary.
.PP
See also sizeHint.
.SH "bool QMenuData::connectItem ( int id, const QObject * receiver, const char * member )"
Connects the menu item with identifier \fIid\fR to \fIreceiver\fR's \fImember\fR slot or signal.
.PP
The receiver's slot (or signal) is activated when the menu item is activated.
.PP
See also disconnectItem() and setItemParameter().
.PP
Example: menu/menu.cpp.
.SH "bool QMenuData::disconnectItem ( int id, const QObject * receiver, const char * member )"
Disconnects the \fIreceiver\fR's \fImember\fR from the menu item with identifier \fIid\fR.
.PP
All connections are removed when the menu data object is destroyed.
.PP
See also connectItem() and setItemParameter().
.SH "void QPopupMenu::drawContents ( QPainter * p )\fC [virtual protected]\fR"
Draws all menu items using painter \fIp\fR.
.PP
Reimplemented from QFrame.
.SH "void QPopupMenu::drawItem ( QPainter * p, int tab_, QMenuItem * mi, bool act, int x, int y, int w, int h )\fC [protected]\fR"
Draws menu item \fImi\fR in the area \fIx\fR, \fIy\fR, \fIw\fR, \fIh\fR, using painter \fIp\fR. The item is drawn active if \fIact\fR is TRUE or drawn inactive if \fIact\fR is FALSE. The rightmost \fItab_\fR pixels are used for accelerator text.
.PP
See also QStyle::drawControl().
.SH "int QPopupMenu::exec ()"
Executes this popup synchronously.
.PP
This is equivalent to \fCexec(mapToGlobal(QPoint(0,0)))\fR. In most situations you'll want to specify the position yourself, for example at the current mouse position:
.PP
.nf
.br
exec(QCursor::pos());
.br
.fi
or aligned to a widget:
.PP
.nf
.br
exec(somewidget.mapToGlobal(QPoint(0,0)));
.br
.fi
.PP
Examples:
.)l fileiconview/qfileiconview.cpp, menu/menu.cpp, and scribble/scribble.cpp.
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
.PP
Executes this popup synchronously.
.PP
Opens the popup menu so that the item number \fIindexAtPoint\fR will be at the specified \fIglobal\fR position \fIpos\fR. To translate a widget's local coordinates into global coordinates, use QWidget::mapToGlobal().
.PP
The return code is the id of the selected item in either the popup menu or one of its submenus, or -1 if no item is selected (normally because the user pressed Esc).
.PP
Note that all signals are emitted as usual. If you connect a menu item to a slot and call the menu's exec(), you get the result both via the signal-slot connection and in the return value of exec().
.PP
Common usage is to position the popup at the current mouse position:
.PP
.nf
.br
exec( QCursor::pos() );
.br
.fi
or aligned to a widget:
.PP
.nf
.br
exec( somewidget.mapToGlobal(QPoint(0, 0)) );
.br
.fi
.PP
When positioning a popup with exec() or popup(), bear in mind that you cannot rely on the popup menu's current size(). For performance reasons, the popup adapts its size only when necessary. So in many cases, the size before and after the show is different. Instead, use sizeHint(). It calculates the proper size depending on the menu's current contents.
.PP
See also popup() and sizeHint.
.SH "void QPopupMenu::highlighted ( int id )\fC [signal]\fR"
This signal is emitted when a menu item is highlighted; \fIid\fR is the id of the highlighted item.
.PP
See also activated() and QMenuData::insertItem().
.SH "QIconSet * QMenuData::iconSet ( int id ) const"
Returns the icon set that has been set for menu item \fIid\fR, or 0 if no icon set has been set.
.PP
See also changeItem(), text(), and pixmap().
.SH "int QPopupMenu::idAt ( int index ) const"
Returns the identifier of the menu item at position \fIindex\fR in the internal list, or -1 if \fIindex\fR is out of range.
.PP
See also QMenuData::setId() and QMenuData::indexOf().
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
.PP
Returns the id of the item at \fIpos\fR, or -1 if there is no item there or if it is a separator.
.SH "int QMenuData::insertItem ( const QString & text, const QObject * receiver, const char * member, const QKeySequence & accel = 0, int id = -1, int index = -1 )"
The family of insertItem() functions inserts menu items into a popup menu or a menu bar.
.PP
A menu item is usually either a text string or a pixmap, both with an optional icon or keyboard accelerator. For special cases it is also possible to insert custom items (see QCustomMenuItem) or even widgets into popup menus.
.PP
Some insertItem() members take a popup menu as an additional argument. Use this to insert submenus into existing menus or pulldown menus into a menu bar.
This default version inserts a menu item with the text \fItext\fR, the accelerator key \fIaccel\fR, an id and an optional index and connects it to the slot \fImember\fR in the object \fIreceiver\fR.
The \fIid\fR specifies the identification number associated with the menu item. Note that only positive values are valid, as a negative value will make TQt select a unique id for the item.
Note that keyboard accelerators in TQt are not application-global, instead they are bound to a certain top-level window. For example, accelerators in QPopupMenu items only work for menus that are associated with a certain window. This is true for popup menus that live in a menu bar since their accelerators will then be installed in the menu bar itself. This also applies to stand-alone popup menus that have a top-level widget in their parentWidget() chain. The menu will then install its accelerator object on that top-level widget. For all other cases use an independent QAccel object.
\fBWarning:\fR Be careful when passing a literal 0 to insertItem() because some C++ compilers choose the wrong overloaded function. Cast the 0 to what you mean, e.g. \fC(QObject*)0\fR.
\fBWarning:\fR On Mac OS X, items that connect to a slot that are inserted into a menubar will not function as we use the native menubar that knows nothing about signals or slots. Instead insert the items into a popup menu and insert the popup menu into the menubar. This may be fixed in a future TQt version.

.SH "int QMenuData::insertItem ( QWidget * widget, int id = -1, int index = -1 )"
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
.PP
Inserts a menu item that consists of the widget \fIwidget\fR with optional id \fIid\fR, and optional \fIindex\fR position.
.PP
Ownership of \fIwidget\fR is transferred to the popup menu or to the menu bar.
.PP
Theoretically, any widget can be inserted into a popup menu. In practice, this only makes sense with certain widgets.
.PP
If a widget is not focus-enabled (see QWidget::isFocusEnabled()), the menu treats it as a separator; this means that the item is not selectable and will never get focus. In this way you can, for example, simply insert a QLabel if you need a popup menu with a title.
.PP
If the widget is focus-enabled it will get focus when the user traverses the popup menu with the arrow keys. If the widget does not accept \fCArrowUp\fR and \fCArrowDown\fR in its key event handler, the focus will move back to the menu when the respective arrow key is hit one more time. This works with a QLineEdit, for example. If the widget accepts the arrow key itself, it must also provide the possibility to put the focus back on the menu again by calling QWidget::focusNextPrevChild(). Futhermore, if the embedded widget closes the menu when the user made a selection, this can be done safely by calling:
.PP
.nf
.br
if ( isVisible() &&
.br
parentWidget() &&
.br
parentWidget()->inherits("QPopupMenu") )
.br
parentWidget()->close();
.br
.fi

.SH "int QMenuData::insertItem ( const QIconSet & icon, QCustomMenuItem * custom, int id = -1, int index = -1 )"
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
.PP
Inserts a custom menu item \fIcustom\fR with an \fIicon\fR and with optional id \fIid\fR, and optional \fIindex\fR position.
.PP
This only works with popup menus. It is not supported for menu bars. Ownership of \fIcustom\fR is transferred to the popup menu.
.PP
If you want to connect a custom item to a slot, use connectItem().
.PP
Returns the allocated menu identifier number (\fIid\fR if \fIid\fR >= 0).
.PP
See also connectItem(), removeItem(), and QCustomMenuItem.
.SH "int QMenuData::insertItem ( QCustomMenuItem * custom, int id = -1, int index = -1 )"
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
.PP
Inserts a custom menu item \fIcustom\fR with optional id \fIid\fR, and optional \fIindex\fR position.
.PP
This only works with popup menus. It is not supported for menu bars. Ownership of \fIcustom\fR is transferred to the popup menu.

.PP
See also connectItem(), removeItem(), and QCustomMenuItem.
.SH "int QMenuData::insertSeparator ( int index = -1 )"
Inserts a separator at position \fIindex\fR, and returns the menu identifier number allocated to it. The separator becomes the last menu item if \fIindex\fR is negative.
.PP
In a popup menu a separator is rendered as a horizontal line. In a Motif menu bar a separator is spacing, so the rest of the items (normally just "Help") are drawn right-justified. In a Windows menu bar separators are ignored (to comply with the Windows style guidelines).
.PP
Examples:
.)l addressbook/mainwindow.cpp, menu/menu.cpp, progress/progress.cpp, qwerty/qwerty.cpp, scrollview/scrollview.cpp, showimg/showimg.cpp, and sound/sound.cpp.
.SH "int QPopupMenu::insertTearOffHandle ( int id = -1, int index = -1 )"
Inserts a tear-off handle into the menu. A tear-off handle is a special menu item that creates a copy of the menu when the menu is selected. This "torn-off" copy lives in a separate window. It contains the same menu items as the original menu, with the exception of the tear-off handle.
.PP
The handle item is assigned the identifier \fIid\fR or an automatically generated identifier if \fIid\fR is < 0. The generated identifiers (negative integers) are guaranteed to be unique within the entire application.
.PP
The \fIindex\fR specifies the position in the menu. The tear-off handle is appended at the end of the list if \fIindex\fR is negative.
.PP
Example: menu/menu.cpp.
.SH "bool QPopupMenu::isCheckable () const"
Returns TRUE if the display of check marks on menu items is enabled; otherwise returns FALSE. See the "checkable" property for details.
.SH "bool QMenuData::isItemChecked ( int id ) const"
Returns TRUE if the menu item with the id \fIid\fR has been checked; otherwise returns FALSE.

Returns TRUE if the item with identifier \fIid\fR is enabled; otherwise returns FALSE
.PP
See also setItemEnabled() and isItemVisible().
.SH "bool QMenuData::isItemVisible ( int id ) const"
Returns TRUE if the menu item with the id \fIid\fR is visible; otherwise returns FALSE.
.PP

.SH "int QPopupMenu::itemHeight ( int row ) const\fC [protected]\fR"
Calculates the height in pixels of the item in row \fIrow\fR.
.SH "int QPopupMenu::itemHeight ( QMenuItem * mi ) const\fC [protected]\fR"
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
.PP
Calculates the height in pixels of the menu item \fImi\fR.
.SH "int QMenuData::itemParameter ( int id ) const"
Returns the parameter of the activation signal of item \fIid\fR.
.PP
If no parameter has been specified for this item with setItemParameter(), the value defaults to \fIid\fR.
.PP
See also connectItem(), disconnectItem(), and setItemParameter().
.SH "QPixmap * QMenuData::pixmap ( int id ) const"
Returns the pixmap that has been set for menu item \fIid\fR, or 0 if no pixmap has been set.
Displays the popup menu so that the item number \fIindexAtPoint\fR will be at the specified \fIglobal\fR position \fIpos\fR. To translate a widget's local coordinates into global coordinates, use QWidget::mapToGlobal().
.PP
When positioning a popup with exec() or popup(), bear in mind that you cannot rely on the popup menu's current size(). For performance reasons, the popup adapts its size only when necessary, so in many cases, the size before and after the show is different. Instead, use sizeHint(). It calculates the proper size depending on the menu's current contents.
.PP
Example: listviews/listviews.cpp.
.SH "void QMenuData::removeItem ( int id )"
Removes the menu item that has the identifier \fIid\fR.
.PP
See also removeItemAt() and clear().
.PP
Example: chart/chartform.cpp.
.SH "void QMenuData::removeItemAt ( int index )"
Removes the menu item at position \fIindex\fR.
.PP
See also removeItem() and clear().
.SH "void QMenuData::setAccel ( const QKeySequence & key, int id )"
Sets the accelerator key for the menu item \fIid\fR to \fIkey\fR.
An accelerator key consists of a key code and a combination of the modifiers SHIFT, CTRL, ALT or UNICODE_ACCEL (OR'ed or added). The header file ntqnamespace.h contains a list of key codes.
Defining an accelerator key produces a text that is added to the menu item; for instance, CTRL + Key_O produces "Ctrl+O". The text is formatted differently for different platforms.
Note that keyboard accelerators in TQt are not application-global, instead they are bound to a certain top-level window. For example, accelerators in QPopupMenu items only work for menus that are associated with a certain window. This is true for popup menus that live in a menu bar since their accelerators will then be installed in the menu bar itself. This also applies to stand-alone popup menus that have a top-level widget in their parentWidget() chain. The menu will then install its accelerator object on that top-level widget. For all other cases use an independent QAccel object.
