Provides basic functionality needed by nearly all dialogs.
It offers the standard action buttons you'd expect to find in a
dialog as well as the capability to define at most three configurable
buttons. You can define a main widget that contains your specific
dialog layout or you can use a predefined layout. Currently, TreeList/Paged, Tabbed, Plain, Swallow and IconList
mode layouts (faces) are available.
The class takes care of the geometry management. You only need to define a minimum size for the widget you want to use as the main widget.
You can set a background tile (pixmap) for parts of the dialog. The tile you select is shared by all instances of this class in your application so that they all get the same look and feel.
There is a tutorial available on http://developer.kde.org/ (NOT YET) that contains copy/paste examples as well a screenshots on how to use this class.
You select which buttons should be displayed, but you do not choose the order in which they are displayed. This ensures a standard interface in KDE. The button order can be changed, but this ability is only available for a central KDE control tool. The following buttons are available: OK, Cancel/Close, Apply/Try, Default, Help and three user definable buttons: User1, User1 and User3. You must specify the text of the UserN buttons. Each button has a virtual slot so you can overload the method when required. The default slots emit a signal as well, so you can choose to connect a signal instead of overriding the slot. The default implementation of slotHelp() will automatically enable the help system if you have provided a path to the help text. slotCancel() and slotClose() will run QDialog::reject() while slotOk() will run QDialog::accept(). You define a default button in the constructor.
If you don't not want any buttons at all because your dialog is special in some way, then set the buttonMask argument in the constructor to zero (0). The optional button box separator line should not be enabled in this case. Note that the KDialogBase will animate a button press when the user press Escape. The button that is enabled is either Cancel, Close or the button that is defined by setEscapeButton() The animation will not take place when the buttonMask is zero. Your custom dialog code should reimplement the keyPressEvent and animate the cancel button so that the dialog behaves like regular dialogs. NOTE: None of the regular slots (like slotOk() ) or signals that are related to the standard action buttons will be used when you don't use these buttons.
You can either use one of the prebuilt, easy to use, faces or define your own main widget. The dialog provides ready to use TreeList, Tabbed, Plain, Swallow and IconList faces. KDialogBase uses the KJanusWidget class internally to accomplish this. If you use TreeList, Tabbed or IconList mode, then add pages with addPage(). If you want complete control of how the dialog contents should look, then you can define a main widget by using setMainWidget(). You only need to set the minimum size of that widget and the dialog will resize itself to fit this minimum size. The dialog is resizeable, but can not be made smaller than its minimum size.
The dialog consists of a help area on top (becomes visible if you define a help path and use enableLinkedHelp()), the main area which is the built-in dialog face or your own widget in the middle and by default a button box at the bottom. The button box can also be placed at the right edge (to the right of the main widget). Use setButtonBoxOrientation() to control this behavior. A separator can be placed above the button box (or to the left when the button box is at the right edge). Normally you specify that you want a separator in the constructor, but you can use enableButtonSeparator() as well.
The class is derived from KDialog, so you get automatic access to the KDialog::marginHint(), KDialog::spacingHint() and the extended KDialog::setCaption() method. NOTE: The main widget you use will be positioned inside the dialog using a margin (or border) equal to KDialog::marginHint(). You shall not add a margin yourself. The example below (from kedit) shows how you use the top level widget and its layout. The second argument (the border) to QVBoxLayout is 0. This situation is valid for addPage , addVBoxPage , addHBoxPage , addGridPage , makeMainWidget , makeVBoxMainWidget , makeHBoxMainWidget and makeGridMainWidget as well.
Example:
UrlDlg::UrlDlg( QWidget *parent, const QString& caption, const QString& urltext) : KDialogBase( parent, "urldialog", true, caption, Ok|Cancel, Ok, true ) { QWidget *page = new QWidget( this ); setMainWidget(page); QVBoxLayout *topLayout = new QVBoxLayout( page, 0, spacingHint() ); QLabel *label = new QLabel( caption, page, "caption" ); topLayout->addWidget( label ); lineedit = new QLineEdit( urltext, page, "lineedit" ); lineedit->setMinimumWidth(fontMetrics().maxWidth()*20); topLayout->addWidget( lineedit ); topLayout->addStretch(10); } |
If you use makeVBoxMainWidget(), then the dialog above can be made simpler but you lose the ability to add a stretchable area:
UrlDlg::UrlDlg( QWidget *parent, const QString& caption, const QString& urltext) : KDialogBase( parent, "urldialog", true, caption, Ok|Cancel, Ok, true ) { QVBox *page = makeVBoxMainWidget(); QLabel *label = new QLabel( caption, page, "caption" ); lineedit = new QLineEdit( urltext, page, "lineedit" ); lineedit->setMinimumWidth(fontMetrics().maxWidth()*20); } |
This class can be used in many ways. Note that most KDE ui widgets and many of KDE core applications use the KDialogBase so for more inspiration you should study the code for these.

const QString &header=QString::null,
const QPixmap &pixmap=QPixmap() )
| addPage |
Add a page to the dialog when the class is used in TreeList ,
IconList or Tabbed mode.
The returned widget must be used as the toplevel widget for this particular page. Note: The returned frame widget has no layout manager associated with it. In order to use it you must create a layout yourself as the example below illustrates:
QFrame *page = addPage( i18n("Layout") ); QVBoxLayout *topLayout = new QVBoxLayout( page, 0, 6 ); QLabel *label = new QLabel( i18n("Layout type"), page ); topLayout->addWidget( label ); .. |
Parameters:

These strings are used to form a path
of folders down to the given page. The initial elements are names
for the folders, while the last element is the name of the page.
Note: This does yet only work for the TreeList face. Later this may
be added for the IconList face too. In other faces than the
TreeList, all the strings except the last one is ignored.

| QRect getContentsRect ()
| getContentsRect |
Do not use this method. It is included for compatibility reasons.
This method returns the contents rectangle of the work area. Place your widgets inside this rectangle, and use it to set up their geometry. Be careful: The rectangle is only valid after resizing the dialog, as it is a result of the resizing process. If you need the "overhead" the dialog needs for its elements, use getBorderWidths().
| QSize calculateSize ( int w, int h )
| calculateSize |
Calculate the size hint for the dialog.
With this method it is easy to calculate a size hint for a dialog derived from KDialogBase if you know the width and height of the elements you add to the widget. The rectangle returned is calculated so that all elements exactly fit into it. Thus, you may set it as a minimum size for the resulting dialog.
You should not need to use this method and never if you use one of the predefined shapes.
Parameters:
| w | The width of you special widget. |
| h | The height of you special widget. |
Returns: The minimum width and height of the dialog using w and h
as the size of the main widget.
