DESCRIPTION
The QSplitter class implements a splitter widget.
A splitter lets the user control the size of child widgets
by dragging the boundary between the children. Any number
of widgets may be controlled.
To show a QListBox, a QListView and a QMultiLineEdit side
by side:
QSplitter *split = new QSplitter( parent );

QSplitter(3qt)QSplitter(3qt)
QListBox *lb = new QListBox( split );
QListView *lv = new QListView( split );
QMultiLineEdit *ed = new QMultiLineEdit( split );
In QSplitter the boundary can be either horizontal or
vertical. The default is horizontal (the children are side
by side) and you can use setOrientation(
QSplitter::Vertical ) to set it to vertical.
By default, all widgets can be as large or as small as the
user wishes, down to minimumSizeHint(). You can naturally
use setMinimumSize() and/or setMaximumSize() on the
children. Use setResizeMode() to specify that a widget
should keep its size when the splitter is resized.
QSplitter normally resizes the children only at the end of
a resize operation, but if you call setOpaqueResize( TRUE
), the widgets are resized as often as possible.
The initial distribution of size between the widgets is
determined by the initial size of each widget. You can
also use setSizes() to set the sizes of all the widgets.
The function sizes() returns the sizes set by the user.
If you hide() a child, its space will be distributed among
the other children. When you show() it again, it will be
reinstated.

Member Type Documentation
QSplitter::ResizeMode
This enum type describes how QSplitter will resize each of
its child widgets. The currently defined values are:
Stretch - the widget will be resized when the splitter
itself is resized.
KeepSize - QSplitter will try to keep this widget's size
unchanged.
FollowSizeHint - QSplitter will resize the widget when its
size hint changes.
MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATIONTrolltech AS 13 June 2001 2
QSplitter(3qt)QSplitter(3qt)QSplitter::QSplitter ( Orientation o, QWidget * parent=0, const
char * name=0 )
Constructs splitter with orientation o.
QSplitter::QSplitter ( QWidget * parent=0, const char * name=0 )
Constructs a horizontal splitter.
QSplitter::~QSplitter ()
Destructs the splitter.
int QSplitter::adjustPos ( int p, int id ) [protected]
Returns the legal position closest to p of the splitter
with id id.
See also idAfter().
void QSplitter::childEvent ( QChildEvent * c ) [virtual
protected]
Tells the splitter that a child widget has been
inserted/removed.
Reimplemented from QObject.
void QSplitter::drawSplitter ( QPainter * p, QCOORD x, QCOORD y,
QCOORD w, QCOORD h ) [virtual protected]
Draws the splitter handle in the rectangle described by x,
y, w, h using painter p.
See also QStyle::drawSplitter.
bool QSplitter::event ( QEvent * e ) [virtual protected]
Reimplemented for internal reasons; the API is not
affected.
Reimplemented from QObject.
void QSplitter::getRange ( int id, int * min, int * max )
[protected]
Returns the valid range of the splitter with id id in min
and max.
See also idAfter().
int QSplitter::idAfter ( QWidget * w ) const [protected]
Returns the id of the splitter to the right of or below
the widget w, or 0 if there is no such splitter. (ie. it
is either not in this QSplitter, or it is at the end).
QSize QSplitter::minimumSizeHint () const [virtual]
Reimplemented for internal reasons; the API is not
affected.
Reimplemented from QWidget.
Trolltech AS 13 June 2001 3
QSplitter(3qt)QSplitter(3qt)void QSplitter::moveSplitter ( QCOORD p, int id ) [protected]
Moves the left/top edge of the splitter handle with id id
as close as possible to p which is the distance from the
left (or top) edge of the widget.
See also idAfter().
void QSplitter::moveToFirst ( QWidget * w )
Moves w to the leftmost/top position.
Examples: splitter/splitter.cpp
void QSplitter::moveToLast ( QWidget * w )
Moves w to the rightmost/bottom position.
bool QSplitter::opaqueResize () const
Returns TRUE if opaque resize is on, FALSE otherwise.
See also setOpaqueResize().
Orientation QSplitter::orientation () const
Returns the orientation (Horizontal or Vertical) of the
splitter.
See also setOrientation().
void QSplitter::refresh ()
Updates the splitter state. You should not need to call
this function during normal use of the splitter.
void QSplitter::resizeEvent ( QResizeEvent * ) [virtual
protected]
Reimplemented for internal reasons; the API is not
affected.
Reimplemented from QWidget.
void QSplitter::setOpaqueResize ( bool on = TRUE ) [virtual]
Sets opaque resize to on. Opaque resize is initially
turned off.
See also opaqueResize().
Examples: mainlyQt/editor.cpp splitter/splitter.cpp
void QSplitter::setOrientation ( Orientation o ) [virtual]
Sets the orientation to o. By default the orientation is
horizontal (the widgets are side by side).
See also orientation().
void QSplitter::setResizeMode ( QWidget * w, ResizeMode mode )
Sets resize mode of w to mode.
Trolltech AS 13 June 2001 4
QSplitter(3qt)QSplitter(3qt)
See also ResizeMode.
Examples: splitter/splitter.cpp
void QSplitter::setRubberband ( int p ) [virtual protected]
Shows a rubber band at position p. If p is negative, the
rubber band is removed.
void QSplitter::setSizes ( QValueList<;int> list )
Sets the size parameters to the values given in list. If
the splitter is horizontal, the values set the sizes from
left to right. If it is vertical, the sizes are applied
from top to bottom. Extra values in list are ignored.
If list contains too few values, the result is undefined
but the program will still be well-behaved.
See also sizes().
QSize QSplitter::sizeHint () const [virtual]
Reimplemented for internal reasons; the API is not
affected.
Reimplemented from QWidget.
QSizePolicy QSplitter::sizePolicy () const [virtual]
Reimplemented for internal reasons; the API is not
affected.
Reimplemented from QWidget.
QValueList<;int> QSplitter::sizes () const
Returns a list of the size parameters of all the widgets
in this splitter.
Giving the values to setSizes() will give a splitter with
the same layout as this one.
See also setSizes().
void QSplitter::styleChange ( QStyle & old ) [virtual protected]
Reimplemented for internal reasons; the API is not
affected.
Reimplemented from QWidget.
