Detailed Description

Property Documentation

◆ devicePixelRatio

qreal Units::devicePixelRatio
read

The ratio between physical and device-independent pixels.

This value does not depend on the \ size of the configured font. If you want to take font sizes into account when scaling elements, use PlasmaCore.Theme.mSize(PlasmaCore.Theme.defaultFont), PlasmaCore.Units.smallSpacing and PlasmaCore.Units.largeSpacing. The devicePixelRatio follows the definition of "device independent pixel" by Microsoft.

Definition at line 115 of file core/units.h.

◆ gridUnit

int Units::gridUnit
read

The fundamental unit of space that should be used for sizes, expressed in pixels.

Given the screen has an accurate DPI settings, it corresponds to the height of the font's boundingRect.

Definition at line 47 of file core/units.h.

◆ humanMoment

int Units::humanMoment
read

Time in milliseconds equivalent to the theoretical human moment, which can be used to determine whether how long to wait until the user should be informed of something, or can be used as the limit for how long something should wait before being automatically initiated.

Some examples:

  • When the user types text in a search field, wait no longer than this duration after the user completes typing before starting the search
  • When loading data which would commonly arrive rapidly enough to not require interaction, wait this long before showing a spinner

This might seem an arbitrary number, but given the psychological effect that three seconds seems to be what humans consider a moment (and in the case of waiting for something to happen, a moment is that time when you think "this is taking a bit long, isn't it?"), the idea is to postpone for just before such a conceptual moment. The reason for the two seconds, rather than three, is to function as a middle ground: Not long enough that the user would think that something has taken too long, for also not so fast as to happen too soon.

◆ iconSizeHints

QQmlPropertyMap * Units::iconSizeHints
read

units.iconSizeHints provides access to user-configurable icon size hints, to be used where appropriate in the user interface.

Conceptually, an icon size hint is a key that has one of the sizes from @iconSizes property as value.

Currently available hints:

  • panel
  • desktop

Definition at line 82 of file core/units.h.

◆ iconSizes

QQmlPropertyMap * Units::iconSizes
read

units.iconSizes provides access to platform-dependent icon sizing

The icon sizes provided are normalized for different DPI, so icons will scale depending on the DPI.

Icon sizes from KIconLoader, adjusted to devicePixelRatio:

  • small
  • smallMedium
  • medium
  • large
  • huge
  • enormous
  • desktop (DEPRECATED: use iconSizeHints instead)

Definition at line 67 of file core/units.h.

◆ largeSpacing

int Units::largeSpacing
read

This property is functionally identical to gridUnit.

To avoid confusion, it should not be used.

TODO KF6: This should be changed to work like Kirigami::Units::largeSpacing.

Definition at line 107 of file core/units.h.

◆ longDuration

int Units::longDuration
read

units.longDuration should be used for longer, screen-covering animations, for opening and closing of dialogs and other "not too small" animations

Definition at line 121 of file core/units.h.

◆ mediumSpacing

int Units::mediumSpacing
read

This property holds the amount of spacing that should be used between medium UI elements, such as buttons and text fields in a toolbar.

Internally, this size depends on the size of the default font as rendered on the screen, so it takes user-configured font size and DPI into account.

Definition at line 100 of file core/units.h.

◆ shortDuration

int Units::shortDuration
read

units.shortDuration should be used for short animations, such as accentuating a UI event, hover events, etc.

Definition at line 127 of file core/units.h.

◆ smallSpacing

int Units::smallSpacing
read

This property holds the amount of spacing that should be used between smaller UI elements, such as a small icon and a label in a button.

Internally, this size depends on the size of the default font as rendered on the screen, so it takes user-configured font size and DPI into account.

Definition at line 92 of file core/units.h.

◆ veryLongDuration

int Units::veryLongDuration
read

units.veryLongDuration should be used for specialty animations that benefit from being even longer than longDuration.

Definition at line 139 of file core/units.h.

◆ veryShortDuration

int Units::veryShortDuration
read

units.veryShortDuration should be used for elements that should animate near instantly, but should have a hint of smoothness

Definition at line 133 of file core/units.h.

Member Function Documentation

◆ roundToIconSize()

int Units::roundToIconSize ( int  size)
static
Returns
a size rounded to the nearest inferior standard icon size. sizes larger than iconSizes.huge, it will be returned unmodified
Parameters
intsize the size we want to be rounded down

iconSizes
