<p> The layout of this dialog is slightly more complicated than for the
|
|
set data form, but we only need a single slot. Unlike the "smart" set
|
|
data form this is a "dumb" dialog that simply provides the widgets for
|
|
the caller to set and read. The caller is responsible for updating
|
|
things based on the changes the user makes.
|
|
<p> (Extracts from <tt>optionsform.cpp</tt>.)

<p> We include some some pixmaps to use in the chart type combobox.

<p> <h2> The Constructor
|
|
</h2>
|
|
<a name="1"></a><p> <pre> OptionsForm::OptionsForm( <a href="ntqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>* parent, const char* name,
|
|
bool modal, WFlags f )
|
|
: <a href="ntqdialog.html">TQDialog</a>( parent, name, modal, f )

|
|
<a href="ntqwidget.html#resize">resize</a>( 320, 290 );
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p> We pass all the arguments on to the <a href="ntqdialog.html">TQDialog</a> constructor, set a caption
|
|
and set an initial size.
|
|
<p> The layout of the form will be to have the chart type label and combo
|
|
box in a horizontal box layout, and similarly for the font button and
|
|
font label, and for the decimal places label and spinbox. The
|
|
buttons will also be placed in a horizontal layout, but with a spacer
|
|
to move them to the right. The show values radio buttons will be
|
|
vertically aligned within a frame. All of these will be laid out in a
|
|
vertical box layout.
|
|
<p> <pre> optionsFormLayout = new <a href="qvboxlayout.html">TQVBoxLayout</a>( this, 11, 6 );
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p> All the widgets will be laid out within the form's vertical box layout.
|
|
<p> <pre> chartTypeLayout = new <a href="qhboxlayout.html">TQHBoxLayout</a>( 0, 0, 6 );
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p> The chart type label and combobox will be laid out side by side.
|
|
<p> <pre> chartTypeTextLabel = new <a href="ntqlabel.html">TQLabel</a>( "&Chart Type", this );
|
|
<a name="x2631"></a> chartTypeLayout-><a href="qboxlayout.html#addWidget">addWidget</a>( chartTypeTextLabel );

|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p> We create the chart type label (with an accelerator which we'll relate
|
|
to the chart type combobox later). We also create a chart type
|
|
combobox, populating it with both pixmaps and text. We add them both
|
|
to the horizontal layout and add the horizontal layout to the form's
|
|
vertical layout.

|
|
optionsFormLayout-><a href="qboxlayout.html#addLayout">addLayout</a>( fontLayout );
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p> We create a horizontal box layout to hold the font button and font
|
|
label. The font button is straight-forward. We add a spacer to improve
|
|
the appearance. The font text label is initially empty (since we don't
|
|
know what font the user is using).

</pre>
|
|
<p> The user may opt to display their own labels as they are or to add the
|
|
values at the end of each label, either as-is or as percentages.
|
|
<p> We create a frame to present the radio buttons in and create a layout
|
|
for them. We create a button group (so that TQt will take care of
|
|
handling the exclusive radio button behaviour automatically). Next we
|
|
create the radio buttons, making "No" the default.
|
|
<p> The decimal places label and spin box are laid out just like the other
|
|
horizontal layouts, and the buttons are laid out in a very similar way
|
|
to the buttons in the set data form.

<p> <pre> <a href="tqobject.html#connect">connect</a>( fontPushButton, TQ_SIGNAL( <a href="ntqbutton.html#clicked">clicked</a>() ), this, TQ_SLOT( chooseFont() ) );

|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p> We only need three connections:
|
|
<ol type=1>
|
|
<li> When the user clicks the font button we execute our own
|
|
chooseFont() slot.
|
|
<li> If the user clicks OK we call <a href="ntqdialog.html#accept">TQDialog::accept</a>(); it is up to the
|
|
caller to read the data from the dialog's widgets and perform any
|
|
necessary actions.
|
|
<li> If the user clicks Cancel we call <a href="ntqdialog.html#reject">TQDialog::reject</a>().
|
|
</ol>

<p> <pre> <a name="x2642"></a> chartTypeTextLabel-><a href="ntqlabel.html#setBuddy">setBuddy</a>( chartTypeComboBox );
|
|
decimalPlacesTextLabel-><a href="ntqlabel.html#setBuddy">setBuddy</a>( decimalPlacesSpinBox );
|

</pre>
|

<p> We use the setBuddy() function to associate widgets with label

accelerators.

<p> <h2> The Slots

|

<a name="2"></a><p> <pre> void OptionsForm::chooseFont()

<p> When the user clicks the Font button this slot is invoked. It simply

calls the static <a href="ntqfontdialog.html#getFont">TQFontDialog::getFont</a>() function to obtain the user's
|
|
choice of font. If they chose a font we call our setFont() slot which
|
|
will present a textual description of the font in the font label.

<p> <pre> void OptionsForm::<a href="ntqwidget.html#setFont">setFont</a>( <a href="ntqfont.html">TQFont</a> font )

|

<p> This function displays a textual description of the chosen font in the

font label and holds a copy of the font in the <tt>m_font</tt> member. We

need the font in a member so that we can provide a default font for

chooseFont().
