DESCRIPTION
The abstract items which a QLayout manipulates.
For custom layouts.
See also QLayout.
MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATIONQLayoutItem::QLayoutItem ( int alignment = 0 )
Constructs a layout item with an alignment that is a
bitwise OR of Qt::AlignmentFlags. Alignment may not be
supported by all subclasses.
QLayoutItem::~QLayoutItem () [virtual]
Destructs the QLayoutItem.
int QLayoutItem::alignment () const
Returns the alignment of this item.
QSizePolicy::ExpandData QLayoutItem::expanding() const [virtual]
Implemented in subclasses to return whether this item
"wants" to expand.
Reimplemented in QSpacerItem, QWidgetItem, QBoxLayout,
QGridLayout and QLayout.

QLayoutItem(3qt)QLayoutItem(3qt)QRect QLayoutItem::geometry () const [virtual]
Returns the rectangle covered by this layout item.
Reimplemented in QWidgetItem, QLayout and QSpacerItem.
bool QLayoutItem::hasHeightForWidth () const [virtual]
Returns TRUE if this layout's preferred height depends on
its width. The default implementation returns FALSE;
Reimplement this function in layout managers that support
height for width.
See also heightForWidth() and QWidget::heightForWidth().
Reimplemented in QBoxLayout, QGridLayout and QWidgetItem.
int QLayoutItem::heightForWidth ( int ) const [virtual]
Returns the preferred height for this layout item, given
the width w.
The default implementation returns -1, indicating that the
preferred height is independent of the width of the item.
Using the function hasHeightForWidth() will typically be
much faster than calling this function and testing for -1.
Reimplement this function in layout managers that support
height for width. A typical implementation will look like
this:
int MyLayout::heightForWidth( int w ) const
{
if ( cache_dirty || cached_width != w ) {
//Not all C++ compilers support "mutable" yet:
MyLayout * mthis = (MyLayout*)this;
int h = calculateHeightForWidth( w );
mthis->cached_hfw = h;
return h;
}
return cached_hfw;
}
Caching is strongly recommended, without it layout will
take exponential time.
See also hasHeightForWidth().
Reimplemented in QGridLayout, QWidgetItem and QBoxLayout.
void QLayoutItem::invalidate () [virtual]
Invalidates any cached information in this layout item.
Reimplemented in QBoxLayout, QLayout and QGridLayout.

QLayoutItem(3qt)QLayoutItem(3qt)virtual bool QLayoutItem::isEmpty () const [virtual]
Implemented in subclasses to return whether this item is
empty, i.e. whether it contains any widgets.
Reimplemented in QLayout, QWidgetItem and QSpacerItem.
QLayoutIterator QLayoutItem::iterator () [virtual]
Returns an iterator over this item's QLayoutItem children.
The default implementation returns an empty iterator.
Reimplement this function in subclasses that can have
children.
Reimplemented in QGridLayout, QLayout and QBoxLayout.
QLayout * QLayoutItem::layout () [virtual]
If this item is a QLayout, return it as a QLayout,
otherwise return 0. This function provides type-safe
casting.
Reimplemented in QLayout.
QSize QLayoutItem::maximumSize () const [virtual]
Implemented in subclasses to return the maximum size of
this item.
Reimplemented in QLayout, QSpacerItem, QGridLayout,
QWidgetItem and QBoxLayout.
QSize QLayoutItem::minimumSize () const [virtual]
Implemented in subclasses to return the minimum size of
this item.
Reimplemented in QSpacerItem, QGridLayout, QBoxLayout,
QLayout and QWidgetItem.
void QLayoutItem::setAlignment ( int a ) [virtual]
Sets the alignment of this item to a, which is a bitwise
OR of Qt::AlignmentFlags.
void QLayoutItem::setGeometry ( const QRect & r ) [virtual]
Implemented in subclasses to set this item's geometry to
r.
Reimplemented in QWidgetItem, QBoxLayout, QGridLayout,
QLayout and QSpacerItem.
QSize QLayoutItem::sizeHint () const [virtual]
Implemented in subclasses to return the preferred size of
this item.
Reimplemented in QWidgetItem, QBoxLayout, QSpacerItem and
QGridLayout.
Trolltech AS 13 June 2001 3
QLayoutItem(3qt)QLayoutItem(3qt)QSpacerItem * QLayoutItem::spacerItem () [virtual]
If this item is a QSpacerItem, return it as a QSpacerItem,
otherwise return 0. This function provides type-safe
casting.
Reimplemented in QSpacerItem.
QWidget * QLayoutItem::widget () [virtual]
If this item is a QWidgetItem, the managed widget is
returned. The default implementation returns 0;.
