.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The QMenuBar class provides a horizontal menu bar.
|
|
.PP
|
|
A menu bar consists of a list of pull-down menu items. You add menu items with insertItem(). For example, asuming that \fCmenubar\fR is a pointer to a QMenuBar and \fCfilemenu\fR is a pointer to a QPopupMenu, the following statement inserts the menu into the menu bar:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.nf
|
|
.br
|
|
menubar->insertItem( "&File", filemenu );
|
|
.br
|
|
.fi
|
|
The ampersand in the menu item's text sets Alt+F as a shortcut for this menu. (You can use "&&" to get a real ampersand in the menu bar.)
|
|
.PP
|
|
Items are either enabled or disabled. You toggle their state with setItemEnabled().
|
|
.PP
|
|
There is no need to lay out a menu bar. It automatically sets its own geometry to the top of the parent widget and changes it appropriately whenever the parent is resized.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Example of creating a menu bar with menu items (from menu/menu.cpp):
|
|
.PP
|
|
.nf
|
|
.br
|
|
QPopupMenu *file = new QPopupMenu( this );
|
|
.fi
|
|
.PP
|
|
.nf
|
|
.br
|
|
file->insertItem( p1, "&Open", this, SLOT(open()), CTRL+Key_O );
|
|
.br
|
|
file->insertItem( p2, "&New", this, SLOT(news()), CTRL+Key_N );
|
|
.fi
|
|
.PP
|
|
.nf
|
|
.br
|
|
menu = new QMenuBar( this );
|
|
.fi
|
|
.PP
|
|
.nf
|
|
.br
|
|
menu->insertItem( "&File", file );
|
|
.fi
|
|
.PP
|
|
In most main window style applications you would use the menuBar() provided in QMainWindow, adding QPopupMenus to the menu bar and adding QActions to the popup menus.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Example (from action/application.cpp):
|
|
.PP
|
|
.nf
|
|
.br
|
|
QPopupMenu * file = new QPopupMenu( this );
|
|
.br
|
|
menuBar()->insertItem( "&File", file );
|
|
.br
|
|
fileNewAction->addTo( file );
|
|
.fi
|
|
.PP
|
|
Menu items can have text and pixmaps (or iconsets), see the various insertItem() overloads, as well as separators, see insertSeparator(). You can also add custom menu items that are derived from QCustomMenuItem.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Menu items may be removed with removeItem() and enabled or disabled with setItemEnabled().

.SH "QMenuBar on Qt/Mac"
|
|
QMenuBar on Qt/Mac is a wrapper for using the system-wide menubar. If you have multiple menubars in one dialog the outermost menubar (normally inside a widget with widget flag WType_TopLevel) will be used for the system-wide menubar.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Note that arbitrary Qt widgets \fIcannot\fR be inserted into a QMenuBar on the Mac because Qt uses Mac's native menus which don't support this functionality. This limitation does not apply to stand-alone QPopupMenus.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Qt/Mac also provides a menubar merging feature to make QMenuBar conform more closely to accepted Mac OS X menubar layout. The merging functionality is based on string matching the title of a QPopupMenu entry. These strings are translated (using QObject::tr()) in the "QMenuBar" context. If an entry is moved its slots will still fire as if it was in the original place. The table below outlines the strings looked for and where the entry is placed if matched:

.SH "QMenuBar::Separator"
|
|
This enum type is used to decide whether QMenuBar should draw a separator line at its bottom.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fCQMenuBar::Never\fR - In many applications there is already a separator, and having two looks wrong.
|
|
.TP
|
|
\fCQMenuBar::InWindowsStyle\fR - In some other applications a separator looks good in Windows style, but nowhere else.
|
|
.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
|
|
.SH "QMenuBar::QMenuBar ( QWidget * parent = 0, const char * name = 0 )"
|
|
Constructs a menu bar called \fIname\fR with parent \fIparent\fR.
|
|
.SH "QMenuBar::~QMenuBar ()"
|
|
Destroys the menu bar.
|
|
.SH "void QMenuBar::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 will 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
|
|
Example: progress/progress.cpp.
|
|
.SH "void QMenuData::clear ()"
|
|
Removes all menu items.
|
|
.PP
|
|
See also removeItem() and removeItemAt().
|
|
.PP
|
|
Examples:
|
|
.)l mdi/application.cpp and qwerty/qwerty.cpp.
|
|
.SH "void QMenuBar::drawContents ( QPainter * p )\fC [virtual protected]\fR"
|
|
Called from QFrame::paintEvent(). Draws the menu bar contents using painter \fIp\fR.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Reimplemented from QFrame.
|
|
.SH "int QMenuBar::heightForWidth ( int max_width ) const\fC [virtual]\fR"
|
|
Returns the height that the menu would resize itself to if its parent (and hence itself) resized to the given \fImax_width\fR. This can be useful for simple layout tasks in which the height of the menu bar is needed after items have been inserted. See showimg/showimg.cpp for an example of the usage.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Example: showimg/showimg.cpp.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Reimplemented from QWidget.
|
|
.SH "void QMenuBar::hide ()\fC [virtual]\fR"
|
|
Reimplements QWidget::hide() in order to deselect any selected item, and calls setUpLayout() for the main window.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Example: grapher/grapher.cpp.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Reimplemented from QWidget.
|
|
.SH "void QMenuBar::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
|
|
Normally, you will 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 activated() and QMenuData::insertItem().
|
|
.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.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The number of insert functions may look confusing, but they are actually quite simple to use.
|
|
.PP
|
|
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.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Example:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.nf
|
|
.br
|
|
QMenuBar *mainMenu = new QMenuBar;
|
|
.br
|
|
QPopupMenu *fileMenu = new QPopupMenu;
|
|
.br
|
|
fileMenu->insertItem( "New", myView, SLOT(newFile()), CTRL+Key_N );
|
|
.br
|
|
fileMenu->insertItem( "Open", myView, SLOT(open()), CTRL+Key_O );
|
|
.br
|
|
mainMenu->insertItem( "File", fileMenu );
|
|
.br
|
|
.fi
|
|
.PP
|
|
Not all insert functions take an object/slot parameter or an accelerator key. Use connectItem() and setAccel() on those items.
|
|
.PP
|
|
If you need to translate accelerators, use tr() with the text and accelerator. (For translations use a string key sequence.):
|
|
.PP
|
|
.nf
|
|
.br
|
|
fileMenu->insertItem( tr("Open"), myView, SLOT(open()),
|
|
.br
|
|
tr("Ctrl+O") );
|
|
.br
|
|
.fi
|
|
.PP
|
|
In the example above, pressing Ctrl+O or selecting "Open" from the menu activates the myView->open() function.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Some insert functions take a QIconSet parameter to specify the little menu item icon. Note that you can always pass a QPixmap object instead.
|
|
.PP
|
|
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 Qt select a unique id for the item.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The \fIindex\fR specifies the position in the menu. The menu item is appended at the end of the list if \fIindex\fR is negative.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Note that keyboard accelerators in Qt 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.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\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.
|
|
.PP
|
|
\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 Qt 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:
