.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The TQBoxLayout class lines up child widgets horizontally or vertically.
|
|
.PP
|
|
TQBoxLayout takes the space it gets (from its parent layout or from the mainWidget()), divides it up into a row of boxes, and makes each managed widget fill one box.
|
|
.PP

|
.B "[Image Omitted]"
|
|
.PP
|
|
</center>
|
|
.PP
|
|
If the TQBoxLayout's orientation is Horizontal the boxes are placed in a row, with suitable sizes. Each widget (or other box) will get at least its minimum size and at most its maximum size. Any excess space is shared according to the stretch factors (more about that below).

.B "[Image Omitted]"
|
|
.PP

|
</center>
|
|
.PP
|
|
If the TQBoxLayout's orientation is Vertical, the boxes are placed in a column, again with suitable sizes.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The easiest way to create a TQBoxLayout is to use one of the convenience classes, e.g. TQHBoxLayout (for Horizontal boxes) or TQVBoxLayout (for Vertical boxes). You can also use the TQBoxLayout constructor directly, specifying its direction as LeftToRight, Down, RightToLeft or Up.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If the TQBoxLayout is not the top-level layout (i.e. it is not managing all of the widget's area and children), you must add it to its parent layout before you can do anything with it. The normal way to add a layout is by calling parentLayout->addLayout().
|
|
.PP
|
|
Once you have done this, you can add boxes to the TQBoxLayout using one of four functions:
|
|
.TP
|
|
addWidget() to add a widget to the TQBoxLayout and set the widget's stretch factor. (The stretch factor is along the row of boxes.)
|
|
.IP
|
|
.TP
|
|
addSpacing() to create an empty box; this is one of the functions you use to create nice and spacious dialogs. See below for ways to set margins.
|
|
.IP
|
|
.TP
|
|
addStretch() to create an empty, stretchable box.
|
|
.IP
|
|
.TP
|
|
addLayout() to add a box containing another TQLayout to the row and set that layout's stretch factor.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Use insertWidget(), insertSpacing(), insertStretch() or insertLayout() to insert a box at a specified position in the layout.
|
|
.PP
|
|
TQBoxLayout also includes two margin widths:
|
|
.TP
|
|
setMargin() sets the width of the outer border. This is the width of the reserved space along each of the TQBoxLayout's four sides.
|
|
.TP
|
|
setSpacing() sets the width between neighboring boxes. (You can use addSpacing() to get more space at a particular spot.)
|
|
.PP
|
|
The margin defaults to 0. The spacing defaults to the same as the margin width for a top-level layout, or to the same as the parent layout. Both are parameters to the constructor.
|
|
.PP
|
|
To remove a widget from a layout, call remove(). Calling TQWidget::hide() on a widget also effectively removes the widget from the layout until TQWidget::show() is called.
|
|
.PP
|
|
You will almost always want to use TQVBoxLayout and TQHBoxLayout rather than TQBoxLayout because of their convenient constructors.
|
|
.PP
|
|

.SS "Member Type Documentation"
|
|
.SH "TQBoxLayout::Direction"
|
|
This type is used to determine the direction of a box layout.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fCTQBoxLayout::LeftToRight\fR - Horizontal, from left to right
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fCTQBoxLayout::RightToLeft\fR - Horizontal, from right to left
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fCTQBoxLayout::TopToBottom\fR - Vertical, from top to bottom
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fCTQBoxLayout::Down\fR - The same as TopToBottom
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fCTQBoxLayout::BottomToTop\fR - Vertical, from bottom to top
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fCTQBoxLayout::Up\fR - The same as BottomToTop
|
|
.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
|
|
.SH "TQBoxLayout::TQBoxLayout ( TQWidget * parent, Direction d, int margin = 0, int spacing = -1, const char * name = 0 )"
|
|
Constructs a new TQBoxLayout with direction \fId\fR and main widget \fIparent\fR. \fIparent\fR may not be 0.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \fImargin\fR is the number of pixels between the edge of the widget and its managed children. The \fIspacing\fR is the default number of pixels between neighboring children. If \fIspacing\fR is -1 the value of \fImargin\fR is used for \fIspacing\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\fIname\fR is the internal object name.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also direction().
|
|
.SH "TQBoxLayout::TQBoxLayout ( TQLayout * parentLayout, Direction d, int spacing = -1, const char * name = 0 )"
|
|
Constructs a new TQBoxLayout called \fIname\fR, with direction \fId\fR, and inserts it into \fIparentLayout\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \fIspacing\fR is the default number of pixels between neighboring children. If \fIspacing\fR is -1, the layout will inherit its parent's spacing().
|
|
.SH "TQBoxLayout::TQBoxLayout ( Direction d, int spacing = -1, const char * name = 0 )"
|
|
Constructs a new TQBoxLayout called \fIname\fR, with direction \fId\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If \fIspacing\fR is -1, the layout will inherit its parent's spacing(); otherwise \fIspacing\fR is used.
|
|
.PP
|
|
You must insert this box into another layout.
|
|
.SH "TQBoxLayout::~TQBoxLayout ()"
|
|
Destroys this box layout.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The layout's widgets aren't destroyed.
|
|
.SH "void TQBoxLayout::addItem ( TQLayoutItem * item )\fC [virtual]\fR"
|
|
Adds \fIitem\fR to the end of this box layout.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Examples:
|
|
.)l chart/optionsform.cpp and chart/setdataform.cpp.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Reimplemented from TQLayout.
|
|
.SH "void TQBoxLayout::addLayout ( TQLayout * layout, int stretch = 0 )"
|
|
Adds \fIlayout\fR to the end of the box, with serial stretch factor \fIstretch\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
When a layout is constructed with another layout as its parent, you don't need to call addLayout(); the child layout is automatically added to the parent layout as it is constructed.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also insertLayout(), setAutoAdd(), addWidget(), and addSpacing().
|
|
.PP
|
|
Examples:
|
|
.)l chart/optionsform.cpp, chart/setdataform.cpp, fonts/simple-tqfont-demo/viewer.cpp, listbox/listbox.cpp, regexptester/regexptester.cpp, and tictac/tictac.cpp.
|
|
.SH "void TQBoxLayout::addSpacing ( int size )"
|
|
Adds a non-stretchable space with size \fIsize\fR to the end of this box layout. TQBoxLayout provides default margin and spacing. This function adds additional space.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also insertSpacing() and addStretch().
|
|
.PP
|
|
Example: listbox/listbox.cpp.
|
|
.SH "void TQBoxLayout::addStretch ( int stretch = 0 )"
|
|
Adds a stretchable space with zero minimum size and stretch factor \fIstretch\fR to the end of this box layout.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also addSpacing().
|
|
.PP
|
|
Examples:
|
|
.)l layout/layout.cpp, listbox/listbox.cpp, regexptester/regexptester.cpp, and t13/gamebrd.cpp.
|
|
.SH "void TQBoxLayout::addStrut ( int size )"
|
|
Limits the perpendicular dimension of the box (e.g. height if the box is LeftToRight) to a minimum of \fIsize\fR. Other constraints may increase the limit.
|
|
.SH "void TQBoxLayout::addWidget ( TQWidget * widget, int stretch = 0, int alignment = 0 )"
|
|
Adds \fIwidget\fR to the end of this box layout, with a stretch factor of \fIstretch\fR and alignment \fIalignment\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The stretch factor applies only in the direction of the TQBoxLayout, and is relative to the other boxes and widgets in this TQBoxLayout. Widgets and boxes with higher stretch factors grow more.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If the stretch factor is 0 and nothing else in the TQBoxLayout has a stretch factor greater than zero, the space is distributed according to the TQWidget:sizePolicy() of each widget that's involved.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Alignment is specified by \fIalignment\fR which is a bitwise OR of TQt::AlignmentFlags values. The default alignment is 0, which means that the widget fills the entire cell.
|
|
.PP
|
|
From TQt 3.0, the \fIalignment\fR parameter is interpreted more aggressively than in previous versions of Qt. A non-default alignment now indicates that the widget should not grow to fill the available space, but should be sized according to sizeHint().
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also insertWidget(), setAutoAdd(), addLayout(), and addSpacing().
|
|
.PP
|
|
Examples:
|
|
.)l chart/optionsform.cpp, checklists/checklists.cpp, layout/layout.cpp, lineedits/lineedits.cpp, listbox/listbox.cpp, t13/gamebrd.cpp, and t13/lcdrange.cpp.
|
|
.SH "Direction TQBoxLayout::direction () const"
|
|
Returns the direction of the box. addWidget() and addSpacing() work in this direction; the stretch stretches in this direction.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also TQBoxLayout::Direction, addWidget(), and addSpacing().
|
|
.SH "TQSizePolicy::ExpandData TQBoxLayout::expanding () const\fC [virtual]\fR"
|
|
Returns whether this layout can make use of more space than sizeHint(). A value of Vertical or Horizontal means that it wants to grow in only one dimension, whereas \fCBothDirections\fR means that it wants to grow in both dimensions.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Reimplemented from TQLayout.
|
|
.SH "int TQBoxLayout::findWidget ( TQWidget * w )"
|
|
Searches for widget \fIw\fR in this layout (not including child layouts).
|
|
.PP
|
|
Returns the index of \fIw\fR, or -1 if \fIw\fR is not found.
|
|
.SH "bool TQBoxLayout::hasHeightForWidth () const\fC [virtual]\fR"
|
|
Returns TRUE if this layout's preferred height depends on its width; otherwise returns FALSE.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Reimplemented from TQLayoutItem.
|
|
.SH "int TQBoxLayout::heightForWidth ( int w ) const\fC [virtual]\fR"
|
|
Returns the layout's preferred height when it is \fIw\fR pixels wide.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Reimplemented from TQLayoutItem.
|
|
.SH "void TQBoxLayout::insertItem ( int index, TQLayoutItem * item )\fC [protected]\fR"
|
|
Inserts \fIitem\fR into this box layout at position \fIindex\fR. If \fIindex\fR is negative, the item is added at the end.
