KTabWidget Class Reference

from PyKDE4.kdeui import *

Inherits: QTabWidget → QWidget → QObject

Detailed Description

A widget containing multiple tabs

It extends the Qt QTabWidget, providing extra optionally features such as close buttons when you hover over the icon in the tab, and also adds functionality such as responding to mouse wheel scroll events to switch the active tab.

It is recommended to use KTabWidget instead of QTabWidget unless you have a good reason not to.

See also the QTabWidget documentation.

Method Documentation

__init__	(	self,
		QWidget	parent=0,
		Qt.WFlags	flags=0
	)

Creates a new tab widget.

Parameters:

parent The parent widgets.

flags

The Qt window flags

bool automaticResizeTabs ( self )

Returns true if calling setTitle() will resize tabs to the width of the tab bar.

closeRequest	(	self,
		QWidget	a0
	)

The close button of a widget's tab was clicked. This signal is only possible after you have called setCloseButtonEnabled( true ).

Signal syntax:: QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("closeRequest(QWidget*)"), target_slot)

closeRequest	(	self,

	)

contextMenu	(	self,
		QPoint	a0
	)

The right mouse button was pressed over empty space besides tabbar.

contextMenu	(	self,
		QWidget	a0,
		QPoint	a1
	)

The right mouse button was pressed over a widget.

	)

currentChanged	(	self,
		int	a0
	)

dragEnterEvent	(	self,
		QDragEnterEvent	a0
	)

dragMoveEvent	(	self,

	)

dropEvent	(	self,
		QDropEvent	a0
	)

bool hoverCloseButton ( self )

Returns true if the close button is shown on tabs when mouse is hovering over them.

Deprecated:: Use QTabWidget.tabsClosable() instead.

bool hoverCloseButtonDelayed ( self )

Returns true if the close button is shown on tabs after a delay.

Deprecated:: Use QTabWidget.setTabsClosable() instead.

initiateDrag	(	self,
		QWidget	a0
	)

Request to start a drag operation on the given tab.

Signal syntax:: QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("initiateDrag(QWidget*)"), target_slot)

initiateDrag	(	self,
		int	a0
	)

bool isCloseButtonEnabled ( self )

Returns true if the close button is shown on tabs.

Since:: 4.1

Deprecated:: Use QTabWidget.tabsClosable() instead.

bool isTabBarHidden ( self )

Returns true if the tabbar is hidden.

bool isTabReorderingEnabled ( self )

Returns true if tab ordering with the middle mouse button has been enabled.

Deprecated:: Use QTabWidget.isMovable() instead.

mouseDoubleClick ( self )

A double left mouse button click was performed over empty space besides tabbar.

Signal syntax:: QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("mouseDoubleClick()"), target_slot)

mouseDoubleClick	(	self,
		QWidget	a0
	)

A double left mouse button click was performed over the widget.

Signal syntax:: QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("mouseDoubleClick(QWidget*)"), target_slot)

mouseDoubleClick	(	self,
		int	a0
	)

mouseDoubleClickEvent	(	self,
		QMouseEvent	a0
	)

mouseMiddleClick ( self )

A middle mouse button click was performed over empty space besides tabbar.

Signal syntax:: QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("mouseMiddleClick()"), target_slot)

mouseMiddleClick	(	self,
		QWidget	a0
	)

A middle mouse button click was performed over the widget.

Signal syntax:: QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("mouseMiddleClick(QWidget*)"), target_slot)

mouseMiddleClick	(	self,
		int	a0
	)

mousePressEvent	(	self,
		QMouseEvent	a0
	)

moveTab	(	self,
		int	a0,
		int	a1
	)

Move a widget's tab from first to second specified index and emit signal movedTab( int, int ) afterwards.

movedTab	(	self,
		int	a0,
		int	a1
	)

A tab was moved from first to second index. This signal is only possible after you have called setTabReorderingEnabled( true ).

Signal syntax:: QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("movedTab(int, int)"), target_slot)

receivedDropEvent	(	self,
		QDropEvent	a0
	)

Received an event in the empty space beside tabbar. Usually creates a new tab. This signal is only possible after testCanDecode and positive accept result.

Signal syntax:: QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("receivedDropEvent(QDropEvent*)"), target_slot)

receivedDropEvent	(	self,
		QWidget	a0,
		QDropEvent	a1
	)

Received an drop event on given widget's tab. This signal is only possible after testCanDecode and positive accept result.

Signal syntax:: QObject.connect(source, SIGNAL("receivedDropEvent(QWidget*, QDropEvent*)"), target_slot)

receivedDropEvent	(	self,
		int	a0,
		QDropEvent	a1
	)

removePage	(	self,
		QWidget	w
	)

Removes the widget, reimplemented for internal reasons (keeping labels in sync).

Deprecated:: since 4.0

removeTab	(	self,
		int	index
	)

Removes the widget, reimplemented for internal reasons (keeping labels in sync).

resizeEvent	(	self,
		QResizeEvent	a0
	)

setAutomaticResizeTabs	(	self,
		bool	enable
	)

If enable is true, tabs will be resized to the width of the tab bar.

Does not work reliably with "QTabWidget* foo=new KTabWidget()" and if you change tabs via the tabbar or by accessing tabs directly.

setCloseButtonEnabled	(	self,
		bool	a0
	)

If enabled, a close button is available for each tab. The signal KTabWidget.closeRequest() is emitted, if the close button has been clicked.

Since:: 4.1

Deprecated:: Use QTabWidget.setTabsClosable() instead.

setHoverCloseButton	(	self,
		bool	enable
	)

If enable is true, a close button will be shown on mouse hover over tab icons which will emit signal closeRequest( QWidget * ) when pressed.

Deprecated:: Use QTabWidget.setTabsClosable() instead.

setHoverCloseButtonDelayed	(	self,
		bool	delayed
	)

If delayed is true, a close button will be shown on mouse hover over tab icons after mouse double click delay else immediately.

Deprecated:: Use QTabWidget.setTabsClosable() instead.

setTabBarHidden	(	self,
		bool	hide
	)

If hide is true, the tabbar is hidden along with any corner widgets.

setTabCloseActivatePrevious	(	self,
		bool	previous
	)

If previous is true, closing the current tab activates the previous active tab instead of the one to the right.

Deprecated:: Use QTabWidget.setSelectionBehaviorOnRemove() instead.

setTabReorderingEnabled	(	self,
		bool	enable
	)

If enable is true, tab reordering with middle button will be enabled.

Note that once enabled you shouldn't rely on previously queried currentPageIndex() or indexOf( QWidget * ) values anymore.

You can connect to signal movedTab(int, int) which will notify you from which index to which index a tab has been moved.

Deprecated:: Use QTabWidget.setMovable() instead.

setTabText	(	self,
		int	a0,
		QString	a1
	)

Reimplemented for internal reasons.

setTabTextColor	(	self,
		int	index,
		QColor	color

int tabBarWidthForMaxChars	(	self,
		int	a0
	)

bool tabCloseActivatePrevious ( self )

Returns true if closing the current tab activates the previous actice tab instead of the one to the right.

Deprecated:: Use QTabBar.selectionBehaviorOnRemove() instead.

		int	a0
	)

tabRemoved	(	self,
		int	a0
	)

QString tabText	(	self,
		int	a0
	)

Reimplemented for internal reasons.

QColor tabTextColor	(	self,
		int	index
