19 * @class KCharSelect kcharselect.h KCharSelect
20 *
21 * @short Character selection widget
22 *
23 * This widget allows the user to select a character of a
24 * specified font and to browse Unicode information
25 *
26 * \image html kcharselect.png "KCharSelect Widget"
27 *
28 * You can specify the font whose characters should be displayed via
29 * setCurrentFont(). Using the Controls argument in the constructor
30 * you can create a compact version of KCharSelect if there is not enough
31 * space and if you don't need all features.
32 *
33 * KCharSelect displays one Unicode block at a time and provides
34 * categorized access to them. Unicode character names and further details,
35 * including cross references, are displayed. Additionally, there is a search
36 * to find characters.
37 *
38 * By default, KCharSelect is restricted to Basic Multilingual Plane (BMP)
39 * characters that QChar supports, i.e. characters with code points that
40 * fit into a quint16 (U+0000..U+FFFF). API methods that have a QChar
41 * argument can only be used for this default mode:
42 *
43 * To get the current selected character, use the currentChar()
44 * method. You can set the character which should be displayed with
45 * setCurrentChar().
46 *
47 * If you want the user to select and search characters from all planes,
48 * i.e. characters U+0000..U+10FFFF, use setAllPlanesEnabled(true)
49 * and use the @c uint based methods currentCodePoint() and
50 * setCurrentCodePoint() instead.
51 *
52 * Since QString does not allow @c uint code points, you either must
53 * use QString::fromUcs4() and QString::ToUcs4() to convert between
54 * strings and code points, or manually do the surrogate pair handling
55 * using QChar::requiresSurrogates() and friends.
