Detailed Description
The QStatusTipEvent class provides an event that is used to show messages in a status bar.
Status tips can be set on a widget using the QWidget::setStatusTip() function. They are shown in the status bar when the mouse cursor enters the widget. For example:
MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) : QMainWindow(parent) { QWidget *myWidget = new QWidget; myWidget->setStatusTip(tr("This is my widget.")); setCentralWidget(myWidget); ... } |
Status tips can also be set on actions using the QAction::setStatusTip() function:
MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) : QMainWindow(parent) { QMenu *fileMenu = menuBar()->addMenu(tr("File")); QAction *newAct = new QAction(tr("&New"), this); newAct->setStatusTip(tr("Create a new file.")); fileMenu->addAction(newAct); ... } |
Finally, status tips are supported for the item view classes through the Qt::StatusTipRole enum value.
