|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
The QDockArea class manages and lays out QDockWindows.
|
||
|
<p>
|
||
|
<p> A QDockArea is a container which manages a list of
|
||
|
<a href="qdockwindow.html">QDockWindow</a>s which it lays out within its area. In cooperation
|
||
|
with the <a href="qdockwindow.html">QDockWindow</a>s it is responsible for the docking and
|
||
|
undocking of <a href="qdockwindow.html">QDockWindow</a>s and moving them inside the dock
|
||
|
area. QDockAreas also handle the wrapping of <a href="qdockwindow.html">QDockWindow</a>s to
|
||
|
fill the available space as compactly as possible. QDockAreas can
|
||
|
contain QToolBars since <a href="qtoolbar.html">QToolBar</a> is a <a href="qdockwindow.html">QDockWindow</a> subclass.
|
||
|
<p> <a href="qmainwindow.html">QMainWindow</a> contains four QDockAreas which you can use for your
|
||
|
QToolBars and QDockWindows, so in most situations you do not need
|
||
|
to use the QDockArea class directly. Although QMainWindow contains
|
||
|
support for its own dock areas it isn't convenient for adding new
|
||
|
QDockAreas. If you need to create your own dock areas we suggest
|
||
|
that you create a subclass of <a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a> and add your QDockAreas to
|
||
|
your subclass.
|
||
|
<p> <center><img src="qmainwindow-qdockareas.png" alt="QMainWindow's QDockAreas"></center>
|
||
|
<p> <a name="lines"></a>
|
||
|
<em>Lines</em>. QDockArea uses the concept of lines. A line is a
|
||
|
horizontal region which may contain dock windows side-by-side. A
|
||
|
dock area may have room for more than one line. When dock windows
|
||
|
are docked into a dock area they are usually added at the right
|
||
|
hand side of the top-most line that has room (unless manually
|
||
|
placed by the user). When users move dock windows they may leave
|
||
|
empty lines or gaps in non-empty lines. Dock windows can be lined
|
||
|
up to minimize wasted space using the <a href="#lineUp">lineUp</a>() function.
|
||
|
<p> The QDockArea class maintains a position list of all its child
|
||
|
dock windows. Dock windows are added to a dock area from position
|
||
|
0 onwards. Dock windows are laid out sequentially in position
|
||
|
order from left to right, and in the case of multiple lines of
|
||
|
dock windows, from top to bottom. If a dock window is floated it
|
||
|
still retains its position since this is where the window will
|
||
|
return if the user double clicks its caption. A dock window's
|
||
|
position can be determined with <a href="#hasDockWindow">hasDockWindow</a>(). The position can
|
||
|
be changed with <a href="#moveDockWindow">moveDockWindow</a>().
|
||
|
<p> To dock or undock a dock window use <a href="qdockwindow.html#dock">QDockWindow::dock</a>() and
|
||
|
<a href="qdockwindow.html#undock">QDockWindow::undock</a>() respectively. If you want to control which
|
||
|
dock windows can dock in a dock area use <a href="#setAcceptDockWindow">setAcceptDockWindow</a>(). To
|
||
|
see if a dock area contains a particular dock window use
|
||
|
<a href="#hasDockWindow">hasDockWindow</a>(); to see how many dock windows a dock area
|
||
|
contains use <a href="#count">count</a>().
|
||
|
<p> The streaming operators can write the positions of the dock
|
||
|
windows in the dock area to a <a href="qtextstream.html">QTextStream</a>. The positions can be
|
||
|
read back later to restore the saved positions.
|
||
|
<p> Save the positions to a QTextStream:
|
||
|
<pre>
|
||
|
ts << *myDockArea;
|
||
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p> Restore the positions from a QTextStream:
|
||
|
<pre>
|
||
|
ts >> *myDockArea;
|
||
|
</pre>
|
||

<h3 class=fn><a name="HandlePosition-enum"></a>QDockArea::HandlePosition</h3>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p> A dock window has two kinds of handles, the dock window handle
|
||
|
used for dragging the dock window, and the splitter handle used to
|
||
|
resize the dock window in relation to other dock windows using a
|
||
|
splitter. (The splitter handle is only visible for docked
|
||
|
windows.)
|
||
|
<p> This enum specifies where the dock window splitter handle is
|
||
|
placed in the dock area.
|
||
|
<ul>
|
||
|
<li><tt>QDockArea::Normal</tt> - The splitter handles of dock windows are placed at
|
||
|
the right or bottom.
|
||
|
<li><tt>QDockArea::Reverse</tt> - The splitter handles of dock windows are placed at
|
||
|
the left or top.
|
||
|
</ul>

<p> Does not affect any floating dock windows or dock windows in other

dock areas, even if they first appeared in this dock area.
|
||
|
Floating dock windows are effectively top level windows and are

|
not child windows of the dock area. When a floating dock window is

docked (dragged into a dock area) its parent becomes the dock

|

</h3>
|
||
|
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
|
||
|
<p> Moves the dock window <em>w</em> inside the dock area where <em>p</em> is the
|
||
|
new position (in global screen coordinates), <em>r</em> is the suggested
|
||
|
rectangle of the dock window and <em>swap</em> specifies whether or not
|
||
|
the orientation of the docked widget needs to be changed.
|
||
|
<p> This function is used internally by <a href="qdockwindow.html">QDockWindow</a>. You shouldn't
|
||
|
need to call it yourself.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h3 class=fn><a href="qt.html#Orientation-enum">Orientation</a> <a name="orientation"></a>QDockArea::orientation () const
|
||
|
</h3><p>Returns the dock area's orientation.
|
||
|
See the <a href="qdockarea.html#orientation-prop">"orientation"</a> property for details.
|
||
|
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="removeDockWindow"></a>QDockArea::removeDockWindow ( <a href="qdockwindow.html">QDockWindow</a> * w, bool makeFloating, bool swap, bool fixNewLines = TRUE )
|
||
|
</h3>
|
||
|
Removes the dock window <em>w</em> from the dock area. If <em>makeFloating</em> is TRUE, <em>w</em> gets floated, and if <em>swap</em> is TRUE,
|
||
|
the orientation of <em>w</em> gets swapped. If <em>fixNewLines</em> is TRUE
|
||
|
(the default) newlines in the area will be fixed.
|
||
|
<p> You should never need to call this function yourself. Use
|
||
|
<a href="qdockwindow.html#dock">QDockWindow::dock</a>() and <a href="qdockwindow.html#undock">QDockWindow::undock</a>() instead.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setAcceptDockWindow"></a>QDockArea::setAcceptDockWindow ( <a href="qdockwindow.html">QDockWindow</a> * dw, bool accept )
|
||
|
</h3>
|
||
|
If <em>accept</em> is TRUE, dock window <em>dw</em> can be docked in the dock
|
||
|
area. If <em>accept</em> is FALSE, dock window <em>dw</em> cannot be docked in
|
||
|
the dock area.
