Qt Solutions Component: Property Browser | ||
# Qt Solutions Component: Property Browser | ||
|
||
A property browser framework enabling the user to edit a set of | ||
properties. | ||
A property browser framework enabling the user to edit a set of properties. | ||
|
||
The framework provides a browser widget that displays the given | ||
properties with labels and corresponding editing widgets (e.g. | ||
line edits or comboboxes). The various types of editing widgets | ||
are provided by the framework's editor factories: For each | ||
property type, the framework provides a property manager (e.g. | ||
QtIntPropertyManager and QtStringPropertyManager) which can be | ||
associated with the preferred editor factory (e.g. | ||
QtSpinBoxFactory and QtLineEditFactory). The framework also | ||
provides a variant based property type with corresponding variant | ||
manager and factory. Finally, the framework provides three | ||
ready-made implementations of the browser widget: | ||
QtTreePropertyBrowser, QtButtonPropertyBrowser and | ||
QtGroupBoxPropertyBrowser. | ||
|
||
Version history: | ||
|
||
2.1: - QtTreePropertyBrowser - tooltip of property applied to | ||
first column, while second column shows the value text of property | ||
in its tooltip | ||
- QtAbstractPropertyManager - initializeProperty() and | ||
uninitializeProperty() without const modifier now | ||
- QtTreePropertyBrowser and QtGroupBoxPropertyBrowser - internal | ||
margin set to 0 | ||
- QtProperty - setEnabled() and isEnabled() methods added | ||
- QtTreePropertyBrowser - "rootIsDecorated", "indentation" and | ||
"headerVisible" properties added | ||
- QtProperty - hasValue() method added, useful for group | ||
properties | ||
|
||
2.2: - FocusOut event now filtered out in case of | ||
Qt::ActiveWindowFocusReason reason. In that case editor is not | ||
closed when its sub dialog is executed | ||
- Removed bug in color icon generation | ||
- Decimals attribute added to "double" property type | ||
- PointF, SizeF and RectF types supported | ||
- Proper translation calls for tree property browser | ||
- QtProperty - ensure inserted subproperty is different from | ||
"this" property | ||
- QtBrowserItem class introduced, useful for identifying browser's | ||
gui elements | ||
- Possibility to control expanded state of QtTreePropertyBrowser's | ||
items from code | ||
- QtTreePropertyBrowser - "resizeMode" and "splitterPosition" | ||
properties added | ||
- QtGroupBoxPropertyBrowser - fixed crash in case of deleting the | ||
editor factory and then deleting the manager | ||
- "Decoration" example added - it shows how to add new | ||
responsibilities to the existing managers and editor factories | ||
|
||
2.3: - Various bugfixes and improvements | ||
- QtProperty - setModified() and isModified() methods added | ||
- QtTreePropertyBrowser - disabling an item closes its editor | ||
- KeySequence, Char, Locale and Cursor types supported | ||
- Support for icons in enum type added | ||
- Kerning subproperty exposed in Font type | ||
- New property browser class added - QtButtonPropertyBrowser with | ||
drop down button as a grouping element | ||
|
||
2.4: - Fixed memory leak of QtProperty | ||
- QtTreePropertyBrowser - group items are rendered better | ||
- QtTreePropertyBrowser - propertiesWithoutValueMarked and | ||
alternatingRowColors features added | ||
- QtTreePropertyBrowser - possibility of coloring properties added | ||
- QtTreePropertyBrowser - keyboard navigation improved | ||
- New factories providing popup dialogs added: | ||
QtColorEditorFactory and QtFontEditorFactory | ||
- Single step attribute added to: QtIntPropertyManager and | ||
QtDoublePropertyManager | ||
|
||
2.5: - "Object Controller" example added. It implements a similar | ||
widget to the property editor in QDesigner | ||
- Compile with QT_NO_CURSOR | ||
- Expand root item with single click on the '+' icon | ||
- QtRectPropertyManager and QtRectFPropertyManager - by default | ||
constraint is null rect meaning no constraint is applied | ||
|
||
2.6: - QtGroupPropertyBrowser - don't force the layout to show the | ||
whole labels' contents for read only properties, show tooltips for | ||
them in addition. | ||
- QtTreePropertyBrowser - fixed painting of the editor for color | ||
property type when style sheet is used (QTSOLBUG-64). | ||
- Make it possible to change the style of the checkboxes with a | ||
stylesheet (QTSOLBUG-61). | ||
- Change the minimum size of a combobox so that it can show at | ||
least one character and an icon. | ||
- Make it possible to properly style custom embedded editors (e.g. | ||
the color editor provided with the solution). | ||
