Member Function Documentation

[override virtual] QWidget *WidgetFactory::containerOfWidget(QWidget *w) const

Returns the widget into which children should be inserted when w is a container known to designer.

Usually, it is w itself, but there are exceptions (for example, a tabwidget is known to designer as a container, but the child widgets should be inserted into the current page of the tabwidget. In this case, the current page of the tabwidget would be returned.)

[override virtual] QLayout *WidgetFactory::createLayout(QWidget *widget, QLayout *parentLayout, int type) const

Creates a layout on the widget widget of the type type which can be HBox, VBox or Grid.

[override virtual] QWidget *WidgetFactory::widgetOfContainer(QWidget *w) const

Returns the actual designer widget of the container w. This is normally w itself, but it might be a parent or grand parent of w (for example, when working with a tabwidget and w is the container which contains and layouts children, but the actual widget known to designer is the tabwidget which is the parent of w. In this case, the tabwidget would be returned.)
