+<p> We pass most of the arguments to the <a href="qdialog.html">TQDialog</a> superclass. We assign the

+<p> The layout of the form is tquite simple. The buttons will be grouped

+</pre>
+<p> We create a new <a href="qtable.html">TQTable</a> with five columns, and the same number of rows
+as we have elements in the elements vector. We make the color and
+pattern columns read only: this is to prevent the user typing in them.
+We will make the color changeable by the user clicking on a color or
+navigating to a color and clicking the Color button. The pattern will
+be in a combobox, changeable simply by the user selecting a different
+pattern. Next we set suitable initial widths, insert labels for each
+column and finally add the table to the tableButtonBox layout.
+<p> <pre> buttonBox = new <a href="qhboxlayout.html">TQHBoxLayout</a>( 0, 0, 6, "button box layout" );
+</pre>
+<p> We create a horizontal box layout to hold the buttons.

+ colorPushButton-&gt;<a href="qwidget.html#setEnabled">setEnabled</a>( FALSE );
+ buttonBox-&gt;<a href="qboxlayout.html#addWidget">addWidget</a>( colorPushButton );
+</pre>
+<p> We create a color button and add it to the buttonBox layout. We
+disable the button; we will only enable it when the focus is actually
+on a color cell.
+<p> <pre> <a href="qspaceritem.html">TQSpacerItem</a> *spacer = new <a href="qspaceritem.html">TQSpacerItem</a>( 0, 0, TQSizePolicy::Expanding,
+ TQSizePolicy::Minimum );
+ <a name="x2593"></a> buttonBox-&gt;<a href="qboxlayout.html#addItem">addItem</a>( spacer );
+</pre>
+<p> Since we want to separate the color button from the OK and Cancel
+buttons we next create a spacer and add that to the buttonBox layout.
+<p> <pre> okPushButton = new <a href="qpushbutton.html">TQPushButton</a>( this, "ok button" );
+ okPushButton-&gt;<a href="qbutton.html#setText">setText</a>( "OK" );

+ buttonBox-&gt;<a href="qboxlayout.html#addWidget">addWidget</a>( cancelPushButton );
+</pre>
+<p> The OK and Cancel buttons are created and added to the buttonBox. We
+make the OK button the dialog's default button, and we make the <tt>Esc</tt>
+key an accelerator for the Cancel button.
+<p> <pre> <a name="x2594"></a> tableButtonBox-&gt;<a href="qboxlayout.html#addLayout">addLayout</a>( buttonBox );
+</pre>
+<p> We add the buttonBox layout to the tableButtonBox and the layout is
+complete.

+</pre>
+<p> We now "wire up" the form.
+<ul>
+<li> If the user clicks a cell we call the setColor() slot; this will
+check that the cell is one that holds a color, and if it is, will
+invoke the color dialog.
+<li> We connect the <a href="qtable.html">TQTable</a>'s currentChanged() signal to our own
+currentChanged() slot; this will be used to enable/disable the color
+button for example, depending on which column the user is in.
+<li> We connect the table's valueChanged() signal to our own
+valueChanged() slot; we'll use this to display the value with the
+correct number of decimal places.
+<li> If the user clicks the Color button we call a setColor() slot.
+<li> The OK button is connected to the accept() slot; we will update the
+elements vector in this slot.
+<li> The Cancel button is connected to the <a href="qdialog.html">TQDialog</a> reject() slot, and
+retquires no further code or action on our part.

+</pre>
+<p> For each element in the element vector we must populate the table.
+<p> If the element is valid we write its value in the first column (column
+0, Value), formatting it with the specified number of decimal places.
+<p> We read the element's value color and fill the blank pixmap with that
+color; we then set the color cell to display this pixmap. We need to
+be able to read back the color later (e.g. if the user changes it).
+One way of doing this would be to examine a pixel in the pixmap;
+another way would be to subclass <a href="qtableitem.html">TQTableItem</a> (in a similar way to our
+CanvasText subclass) and store the color there. But we've taken a
+simpler route: we set the cell's text to the name of the color.
+<p> Next we populate the pattern combobox with the patterns. We will use
+the position of the chosen pattern in the combobox to determine which
+pattern the user has selected. <a href="qtable.html">TQTable</a> can make use of <a href="qcombotableitem.html">TQComboTableItem</a>
+items; but these only support text, so we use setCellWidget() to
+insert <a href="qcombobox.html">TQComboBox</a>'s into the table instead.
+<p> Next we insert the element's label. Finally we set the label color in
+the same way as we set the value color.
