Detailed Description

A QGraphicsView for a single Containment.

Each View is associated with a Plasma::Containment and tracks geometry changes, maps to the current desktop (if any) among other helpful utilities. It isn't stricly required to use a Plasma::View with Plasma enabled applications, but it can make some things easier.

Definition at line 47 of file view.h.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Plasma::View::View ( Containment *  containment,
QWidget *  parent = 0 
) [explicit]

Constructs a view for a given contanment.

An Id is automatically assigned to the View.

  • containment the containment to center the view on
  • parent the parent object for this view

Definition at line 139 of file view.cpp.

Plasma::View::View ( Containment *  containment,
int  viewId,
QWidget *  parent = 0 
)

Constructs a view for a given contanment.

  • containment the containment to center the view on
  • viewId the id to assign to this view
  • parent the parent object for this view

Definition at line 152 of file view.cpp.

Plasma::View::~View ( )

Definition at line 165 of file view.cpp.


Member Function Documentation

KConfigGroup Plasma::View::config ( ) const [protected]
Returns:
a KConfigGroup in the application's config file unique to the view

Definition at line 363 of file view.cpp.

void Plasma::View::configNeedsSaving ( ) const [protected]

Requests that the config be synchronized to disk.

Definition at line 369 of file view.cpp.

Containment * Plasma::View::containment ( ) const
Returns:
the containment associated with this view, or 0 if none is

Definition at line 303 of file view.cpp.

int Plasma::View::desktop ( ) const

The virtual desktop this view is associated with.

Returns:
the desktop number, -1 for all desktops and less than -1 for none

Definition at line 212 of file view.cpp.

int Plasma::View::effectiveDesktop ( ) const

The virtual desktop this view is actually being viewed on.

Returns:
the desktop number (always valid, never < 0)

Definition at line 221 of file view.cpp.

int Plasma::View::id ( ) const
Returns:
the id of the View set in the constructor

Definition at line 380 of file view.cpp.

bool Plasma::View::isWallpaperEnabled ( ) const
Returns:
whether or not containments should draw wallpaper

Definition at line 390 of file view.cpp.

void Plasma::View::lostContainment ( ) [signal]

This is emitted after the containment is destroyed, for views that need to do something about it (like find a new one).

void Plasma::View::sceneRectAboutToChange ( ) [signal]

This signal is emitted whenever the containment being viewed has changed its geometry, but before the View has shifted the viewd scene rect to the new geometry.

This is useful for Views which want to keep their rect() in sync with the containment'sa

void Plasma::View::sceneRectChanged ( ) [signal]

This signal is emitted whenever the containment being viewed has changed its geometry, and after the View has shifted the viewd scene rect to the new geometry.

This is useful for Views which want to keep their rect() in sync with the containment's.

int Plasma::View::screen ( ) const

Returns the screen this view is associated with.

Returns:
the xinerama screen number, or -1 for none

Definition at line 207 of file view.cpp.

void Plasma::View::setContainment ( Plasma::Containment *  containment) [virtual, slot]

Sets the containment for this view, which will also cause the view to track the geometry of the containment.

  • containment the containment to center the view on

Definition at line 227 of file view.cpp.

void Plasma::View::setScreen ( int  screen,
int  desktop = -1 
)

Sets which screen this view is associated with, if any.

This will also set the containment if a valid screen is specified

  • screen the physical screen number; -1 for no screen
  • desktop the virtual desktop number, or -1 for all virtual desktops

Definition at line 173 of file view.cpp.

void Plasma::View::setTrackContainmentChanges ( bool  trackChanges)

Set whether or not the view should adjust its size when the associated containment does.

  • trackChanges true to synchronize the view's size with the containment's (this is the default behaviour), false to ignore containment size changes

Definition at line 395 of file view.cpp.

void Plasma::View::setWallpaperEnabled ( bool  draw)

Sets whether or not to draw the containment wallpaper when painting on this item.

Definition at line 385 of file view.cpp.

Containment * Plasma::View::swapContainment ( const QString &  name,
const QVariantList &  args = QVariantList() 
)

Swap the containment for this view, which will also cause the view to track the geometry of the containment.

Parameters:
namethe plugin name for the new containment.
argsargument list to pass to the containment

Definition at line 308 of file view.cpp.

Containment * Plasma::View::swapContainment ( Plasma::Containment *  existing,
const QString &  name,
const QVariantList &  args = QVariantList() 
)

Swaps one containment with another.

Parameters:
existingthe existing containment to swap out
namethe plugin name for the new containment.
argsargument list to pass to the containment
Returns:
the new containment

Definition at line 313 of file view.cpp.

View * Plasma::View::topLevelViewAt ( const QPoint &  pos) [static]
Parameters:
posthe position in screen coordinates.
Returns:
the Plasma::View that is at position pos.

Definition at line 405 of file view.cpp.

bool Plasma::View::trackContainmentChanges ( )
Returns:
whether or not the view tracks changes to the containment

Definition at line 400 of file view.cpp.
