Qt 3 Support Members for QWidget

The following class members are part of the Qt 3 support layer. They are provided to help you port old code to Qt 4. We advise against using them in new code.

enum QWidget::BackgroundOrigin

Constant Value
QWidget::WidgetOrigin 0
QWidget::ParentOrigin 1
QWidget::WindowOrigin 2
QWidget::AncestorOrigin 3

Member Function Documentation

QWidget::QWidget ( QWidget * parent, const char * name, Qt::WindowFlags f = 0 )

This is an overloaded function.

Qt::BackgroundMode QWidget::backgroundMode () const

Returns the color role used for painting the widget's background.

Use QPalette(backgroundRole(()) instead.

See also setBackgroundMode().

QPoint QWidget::backgroundOffset () const

Always returns QPoint().

BackgroundOrigin QWidget::backgroundOrigin () const

Always returns WindowOrigin.

See also setBackgroundOrigin().

QString QWidget::caption () const

Use windowTitle() instead.

See also setCaption().

QWidget * QWidget::childAt ( int x, int y, bool includeThis ) const

Use the childAt() overload that doesn't have an includeThis parameter.

For example, if you have code like

 return widget->childAt(x, y, true);

you can rewrite it as

 QWidget *child = widget->childAt(x, y, true);
 if (child)
     return child;
 if (widget->rect().contains(x, y))
     return widget;

QWidget * QWidget::childAt ( const QPoint & p, bool includeThis ) const

Use the single point argument overload instead.

bool QWidget::close ( bool alsoDelete )

Closes the widget.

Use the no-argument overload instead.

QColorGroup QWidget::colorGroup () const

Use QColorGroup(palette()) instead.

void QWidget::constPolish () const

Use ensurePolished() instead.

void QWidget::drawText ( const QPoint & p, const QString & s )

void QWidget::drawText ( int x, int y, const QString & s )

Drawing may only take place in a QPaintEvent. Overload paintEvent() to do your drawing and call update() to schedule a replaint whenever necessary. See also QPainter.

void QWidget::erase ()

Drawing may only take place in a QPaintEvent. Overload paintEvent() to do your erasing and call update() to schedule a replaint whenever necessary. See also QPainter.

void QWidget::erase ( int x, int y, int w, int h )

Drawing may only take place in a QPaintEvent. Overload paintEvent() to do your erasing and call update() to schedule a replaint whenever necessary. See also QPainter.

void QWidget::erase ( const QRect & rect )

Drawing may only take place in a QPaintEvent. Overload paintEvent() to do your erasing and call update() to schedule a replaint whenever necessary. See also QPainter.

void QWidget::erase ( const QRegion & rgn )

This is an overloaded function.

Clear the given region, rgn.

Drawing may only take place in a QPaintEvent. Overload paintEvent() to do your erasing and call update() to schedule a replaint whenever necessary. See also QPainter.

bool QWidget::hasMouse () const

Use testAttribute(Qt::WA_UnderMouse) instead.

const QPixmap * QWidget::icon () const

Return's the widget's icon.

Use windowIcon() instead.

Use testAttribute(Qt::WA_InputMethodEnabled) instead.

bool QWidget::isPopup () const

Use windowType() == Qt::Popup instead.

bool QWidget::isShown () const

Use !isHidden() instead (notice the exclamation mark), or use isVisible() to check whether the widget is visible.

bool QWidget::isUpdatesEnabled () const

void QWidget::polish ()

Use ensurePolished() instead.

void QWidget::recreate ( QWidget * parent, Qt::WindowFlags f, const QPoint & p, bool showIt = false )

Use setParent() to change the parent or the widget's widget flags; use move() to move the widget, and use show() to show the widget.

void QWidget::repaint ( bool b )

The boolean parameter b is ignored. Use the no-argument overload instead.

void QWidget::repaint ( int x, int y, int w, int h, bool b )

The boolean parameter b is ignored. Use the four-argument overload instead.

void QWidget::repaint ( const QRect & r, bool b )
