KStyle Class Reference

from PyKDE4.kdeui import *

Inherits: QStyle → QObject

Detailed Description

Makes style coding more convenient.

To do: and allows to style KDE specific widgets.

KStyle strives to ease style development by implementing various QStyle methods. These implementations are based on

the concept of Layout Properties. These properties can be set using setWidgetLayoutProp(). KStyle uses this information to respect various metrics (like space between primitives or margins around widget contents) or turn specific features on or off.
the concept of KStyle Primitives. These can be implemented by overriding drawKStylePrimitive() and providing drawing methods for specific primitives. Often, the drawing of more complex widgets consists of several primitives.

In the following modules, information about related members is collected: - OptionGroup - WidgetGroup

Method Documentation

__init__ ( self )

QRect centerRect	(	self,
		QRect	in,
		int	w,
		int	h
	)

Return a size-dimension QRect centered inside the 'in' rectangle

QRect centerRect	(	self,
		QRect	in,
		QSize	size
	)

Return a size-dimension QRect centered inside the 'in' rectangle

QStyle Methods These are methods reimplemented from QStyle. Usually it's not necessary to reimplement them yourself.

Some of them are there for binary compatibility reasons only; all they do is to call the implementation from QCommonStyle.

drawInsideRect	(	self,
		QPainter	p,
		QRect	r
	)

Draws inside the rectangle using a thinkness 0 pen. This is what drawRect in Qt3 used to do.

drawItemPixmap	(	self,
		QPainter	painter,
		QRect	rect,
		int	alignment,
		QPixmap	pixmap
	)

drawItemText	(	self,

QStyle::ControlElement newControlElement	(	self,
		QString	element
	)

QStyle::StyleHint newStyleHint	(	self,
		QString	element
	)

Runtime element extension, allows inheriting styles to add support custom elements merges supporting inherit chains Supposed to be called e.g. in your constructor.

NOTICE: in order to have this work, your style must provide an "X-KDE-CustomElements" classinfo, i.e. class MyStyle : public KStyle { Q_OBJECT Q_CLASSINFO ("X-KDE-CustomElements", "true")

public: ..... }

Parameters:

element

The style element, represented as string. Suggested naming convention: appname.(2-char-element-type)_element where the 2-char-element-type is of {SH, CE, SE} widgets in kdelibs don't have to pass the appname examples: "CE_CapacityBar", "amarok.CE_Analyzer"

Important notes: 1) If your string lacks the matching "SH_", "CE_" or "SE_" token the element request will be ignored (return is 0) 2) To keep UI coherency, don't support any nonsense in your style, but convince app developers to use standard elements - if available

QStyle::SubElement newSubElement	(	self,
		QString	element
	)

int pixelMetric	(	self,
		QStyle::PixelMetric	metric,
		QStyleOption	opt=0,
		QWidget	w=0
	)

		QWidget	a0
	)

polish	(	self,
		QPalette	a0
	)

setWidgetLayoutProp	(	self,
		KStyle.WidgetType	widget,
		int	metric,
		int	value
	)

Describes windows, like in QWorkspace.

To do: SP_TitleBar* pixmaps

int widgetLayoutProp	(	self,
		KStyle.WidgetType	widgetType,
		int	metric,
		QStyleOption	opt=0,
		QWidget	w=0
	)

Used to obtain information about KStyle layout properties and metrics.

The default implementation returns values which are set using setWidgetLayoutProp(), so normally it's not necessary to implement it yourself.

Note:: This method is not meant to be accessible from outside KStyle.

Parameters:

	widgetType	the widget type context where the metric property belongs to
	metric	the value of this property is requested
	opt	Qt option parameters
	w	the actual widget this call is related to

Static Method Documentation

QStyle::ControlElement customControlElement	(	QString	element,
		QWidget	widget
	)

QStyle::StyleHint customStyleHint	(	QString	element,
		QWidget	widget
	)

Runtime element extension This is just convenience and does /not/ require the using widgets style to inherit KStyle (i.e. calling this while using cleanlooks won't segfault or so but just return 0) Returns a unique id for an element string (e.g. "CE_CapacityBar")

For simplicity, only StyleHints, ControlElements and their SubElements are supported If you don't need extended SubElement functionality, just drop it

Parameters:

	element	The style element, represented as string. Naming convention: "appname.(2-char-element-type)_element" where the 2-char-element-type is of {SH, CE, SE} (widgets in kdelibs don't have to pass the appname) examples: "CE_CapacityBar", "amarok.CE_Analyzer"
	widget	Your widget ("this") passing this is mandatory, passing NULL will just return 0

Returns:: a unique id for the element string or 0, if the element is not supported by the widgets current style

Important notes: 1) If your string lacks the matching "SH_", "CE_" or "SE_" token the element request will be ignored (return is 0) 2) Try to avoid custom elements and use default ones (if possible) to get better style support and keep UI coherency 3) If you cache this value (good idea, this requires a map lookup) don't (!) forget to catch style changes in QWidget.changeEvent()

QStyle::SubElement customSubElement	(	QString	element,
		QWidget	widget
	)

QString defaultStyle ( )

Returns the default widget style.

Enumeration Documentation

MarginOffsets

These constants describe how to access various fields of a margin property. For example, to set an additional top margin of 2 pixels, use

 setWidgetLayoutProp(WT_SomeWidget, SomeWidget.Margin + Top, 2);

Enumerator:

MainMargin
Top
Bot
Left
Right
MarginInc

WidgetType

This enum is used to represent KStyle's concept of a widget, and to associate drawing requests and metrics with it. The generic value is used for primitives and metrics that are common between many widgets

Enumerator:

WT_Generic
WT_PushButton
WT_Splitter
WT_CheckBox
WT_RadioButton
WT_DockWidget
WT_ProgressBar
WT_MenuBar
WT_MenuBarItem
WT_Menu
WT_MenuItem

WT_TabBar
WT_TabWidget
WT_Slider
WT_Tree
WT_SpinBox
WT_ComboBox
WT_Header
WT_LineEdit
WT_GroupBox
WT_StatusBar
