Detailed Description
The manager that knows all dockwidgets and handles the dock process (and member of the dockwidget class set).More or less a helper class for the KDockWidget class set but of interest for some functionality that can be called within a KDockMainWindow or a KDockWidget .
An important feature is the ability to read or save the current state of all things concerning to dockwidgets to KConfig .
The dockmanager is also often used when a certain dockwidget or a child of such dockwidget must be found.

Member Function Documentation
| void KDockManager::activate | ( | ) |
Shows all encapsulated widgets of all controlled dockwidgets and shows all dockwidgets which are parent of a dockwidget tab group.
Definition at line 1690 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| void KDockManager::change | ( | ) | [signal] |
Signals changes of the docking state of a dockwidget.
Usually the dock-toolbar will be updated then.
| QPopupMenu* KDockManager::dockHideShowMenu | ( | ) | const [inline] |
| void KDockManager::dumpDockWidgets | ( | ) |
Definition at line 2870 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
It's more or less a method that catches several events which are interesting for the dockmanager.
Mainly mouse events during the drag process of a dockwidgets are of interest here.
- Parameters:
-
object the object that sends the event event the event
- Returns:
- the return value of the method call of the base class method
Reimplemented from QObject.
Definition at line 1705 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| KDockWidget * KDockManager::findWidgetParentDock | ( | QWidget * | w | ) | const |
This method finds out what a widgets' dockwidget is.
That means the dockmanager has a look at all dockwidgets it knows and tells you when one of those dockwidgets covers the given widget.
- Parameters:
-
w any widget that is supposed to be encapsulated by one of the controlled dockwidgets
- Returns:
- the dockwidget that encapsulates that widget, otherwise 0

| void KDockManager::finishReadDockConfig | ( | ) |
Definition at line 2519 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| KDockWidget * KDockManager::getDockWidgetFromName | ( | const QString & | dockName | ) |
- Parameters:
-
dockName an internal QObject name
- Returns:
- the dockwidget that has got that internal QObject name
Definition at line 2880 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| void KDockManager::makeWidgetDockVisible | ( | QWidget * | w | ) | [inline] |
Works like makeDockVisible() but can be called for widgets that covered by a dockwidget.
- Parameters:
-
w the widget that is encapsulated by a dockwidget that turns to visible.
Definition at line 1015 of file kdockwidget.h.
| void KDockManager::readConfig | ( | QDomElement & | base | ) |
Reads the current dock window layout from a DOM tree below the given element.
Definition at line 2313 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| void KDockManager::readConfig | ( | KConfig * | c = 0L, |
|
| QString | group = QString::null | |||
| ) |
Like writeConfig but reads the whole stuff in.
In order to restore a window configuration from a config file, it looks up widgets by name (QObject::name) in the childDock variable of KDockManager. This list in turn contains all KDockWidgets (according to the KDockWidget constructor). So in principle, in order to restore a window layout, one must first construct all widgets, put each of them in a KDockWidget and then call readConfig(). And for all that to work, each widget must have a unique name.
- Parameters:
-
c the KDE configuration saver group the name of the section in KConfig

| void KDockManager::removeFromAutoCreateList | ( | KDockWidget * | pDockWidget | ) |
Definition at line 2511 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| void KDockManager::replaceDock | ( | KDockWidget * | oldDock, | |
| KDockWidget * | newDock | |||
| ) | [signal] |
Signals a dockwidget is replaced with another one.
| void KDockManager::setDockDefaultPos | ( | KDockWidget * | ) | [signal] |
Signals a dockwidget without parent (toplevel) is shown.
| void KDockManager::setMainDockWidget2 | ( | KDockWidget * | w | ) |
| void KDockManager::setReadDockConfigMode | ( | int | mode | ) |

| void KDockManager::setSpecialBottomDockContainer | ( | KDockWidget * | container | ) |
Definition at line 3043 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| void KDockManager::setSpecialLeftDockContainer | ( | KDockWidget * | container | ) |
| void KDockManager::setSpecialRightDockContainer | ( | KDockWidget * | container | ) |

| void KDockManager::setSpecialTopDockContainer | ( | KDockWidget * | container | ) |
Definition at line 3034 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| void KDockManager::setSplitterHighResolution | ( | bool | b = true |
) |
Operate the splitter with a higher resolution.
Off by default. Call this method before you create any dock widgets! If high resolution is used all splitter position parameters are percent*100 instead of percent.
- Note:
- Since KDE 3.5 this is ignored. Internally the splitter always calcualtes in high resolution values. For KDE 4, this will be removed.
Definition at line 2917 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| void KDockManager::setSplitterKeepSize | ( | bool | b = true |
) |
Try to preserve the widget's size.
Works like KeepSize resize mode of QSplitter. Off by default. Call this method before you create any dock widgets!
Definition at line 2907 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| void KDockManager::setSplitterOpaqueResize | ( | bool | b = true |
) |
Enables opaque resizing.
Opaque resizing defaults to KGlobalSettings::opaqueResize(). Call this method before you create any dock widgets!
Definition at line 2897 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| bool KDockManager::splitterHighResolution | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if the splitter uses the high resolution, false otherwise.
Definition at line 2922 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| bool KDockManager::splitterKeepSize | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if the KeepSize is enabled, false otherwise.
Definition at line 2912 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| bool KDockManager::splitterOpaqueResize | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if opaque resizing is enabled, false otherwise.
Definition at line 2902 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| void KDockManager::virtual_hook | ( | int | id, | |
| void * | data | |||
| ) | [protected, virtual] |
Definition at line 3319 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| void KDockManager::writeConfig | ( | QDomElement & | base | ) |
Saves the current dock window layout into a DOM tree below the given element.
Definition at line 2201 of file kdockwidget.cpp.
| void KDockManager::writeConfig | ( | KConfig * | c = 0L, |
|
| QString | group = QString::null | |||
| ) |
Saves the current state of the dockmanager and of all controlled widgets.
State means here to save the geometry, visibility, parents, internal object names, orientation, separator positions, dockwidget-group information, tab widget states (if it is a tab group) and last but not least some necessary things for recovering the dockmainwindow state.
- Parameters:
-
c the KDE configuration saver group the name of the section in KConfig
