Method Documentation

__init__ (  self,
KTipDatabase  database,
QWidget  parent=0
)

Construct a tip dialog.

Parameters:
database  TipDatabase that should be used by the TipDialog.
parent  Parent widget of TipDialog.

__init__ (  self,
KTipDialog  a0
)
bool eventFilter (  self,
QObject  a0,
QEvent  a1
)
setShowOnStart ( bool  show
)

Toggles the start behavior.

Normally, the user can disable the display of the tip in the dialog. This is just a way to change this setting from outside.

showMultiTip ( QWidget  parent,
QStringList  tipFiles,
bool  force=0
)

Shows a tip

This method behaves essentially as the one above, but expects a list of tips

Parameters:
parent  Parent widget of TipDialog.
tipFiles  A List of tip files. Each has be relative to the "data" resource of KStandardDirs
force  If true, the dialog is show, even when the users disabled it.

showTip ( QWidget  parent,
QString  tipFile=QString(),
bool  force=0
)

Shows a tip.

This static method is all that is needed to add a tip-of-the-day dialog to an application. It will pop up the dialog, unless the user has asked that the dialog does not pop up on startup.

Note that you probably want an item in the help menu calling this method with force=true.

Parameters:
parent  Parent widget of TipDialog.
tipFile  The name of the tip file. It has be relative to the "data" resource of KStandardDirs
force  If true, the dialog is show, even when the users disabled it.

showTip ( QString  tipFile=QString(),
bool  force=0
)

Shows a tip.

This methods calls showTip() with the applications main window as parent.
