- -The TQAction class provides an abstract user interface -action that can appear both in menus and tool bars. -<p> - - -<p> In GUI applications many commands can be invoked via a menu -option, a toolbar button and a keyboard accelerator. Since the -same action must be performed regardless of how the action was -invoked, and since the menu and toolbar should be kept in sync, it -is useful to represent a command as an <em>action</em>. An action can be -added to a menu and a toolbar and will automatically keep them in -sync. For example, if the user presses a Bold toolbar button the -Bold menu item will automatically be checked. -<p> A TQAction may contain an icon, a menu text, an accelerator, a -status text, a whats this text and a tool tip. Most of these can -be set in the constructor. They can also be set independently with -<a href="#setIconSet">setIconSet</a>(), <a href="#setText">setText</a>(), <a href="#setMenuText">setMenuText</a>(), <a href="#setToolTip">setToolTip</a>(), -<a href="#setStatusTip">setStatusTip</a>(), <a href="#setWhatsThis">setWhatsThis</a>() and <a href="#setAccel">setAccel</a>(). -<p> An action may be a toggle action e.g. a Bold toolbar button, or a -command action, e.g. 'Open File' to invoke an open file dialog. -Toggle actions emit the <a href="#toggled">toggled</a>() signal when their state changes. -Both command and toggle actions emit the <a href="#activated">activated</a>() signal when -they are invoked. Use <a href="#setToggleAction">setToggleAction</a>() to set an action's toggled -status. To see if an action is a toggle action use -<a href="#isToggleAction">isToggleAction</a>(). A toggle action may be "on", <a href="#isOn">isOn</a>() returns -TRUE, or "off", isOn() returns FALSE. -<p> Actions are added to widgets (menus or toolbars) using <a href="#addTo">addTo</a>(), -and removed using <a href="#removeFrom">removeFrom</a>(). -<p> Once a TQAction has been created it should be added to the relevant -menu and toolbar and then connected to the slot which will perform -the action. For example: -<p> - -<pre> fileOpenAction = new TQAction( TQPixmap( fileopen ), "&Open...", - CTRL+Key_O, this, "open" ); - <a href="qobject.html#connect">connect</a>( fileOpenAction, SIGNAL( <a href="#activated">activated</a>() ) , this, SLOT( choose() ) ); -</pre> -<p> We create a "File Save" action with a menu text of "&Save" and -<em>Ctrl+S</em> as the keyboard accelerator. We connect the -fileSaveAction's <a href="#activated">activated</a>() signal to our own save() slot. Note -that at this point there is no menu or toolbar action, we'll add -them next: -<p> <pre> <a href="qtoolbar.html">TQToolBar</a> * fileTools = new <a href="qtoolbar.html">TQToolBar</a>( this, "file operations" ); -</pre><pre> fileSaveAction-><a href="#addTo">addTo</a>( fileTools ); -</pre><pre> <a href="qpopupmenu.html">TQPopupMenu</a> * file = new <a href="qpopupmenu.html">TQPopupMenu</a>( this ); - <a href="qmainwindow.html#menuBar">menuBar</a>()->insertItem( "&File", file ); -</pre><pre> fileSaveAction-><a href="#addTo">addTo</a>( file ); -</pre> -<p> We create a toolbar and add our fileSaveAction to it. Similarly we -create a menu, add a top-level menu item, and add our -fileSaveAction. -<p> We recommend that actions are created as children of the window -that they are used in. In most cases actions will be children of -the application's main window. -<p> To prevent recursion, don't create an action as a child of a -widget that the action is later added to. -<p>See also <a href="application.html">Main Window and Related Classes</a> and <a href="basic.html">Basic Widgets</a>. - -<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2> -<h3 class=fn><a name="TQAction"></a>TQAction::TQAction ( <a href="qobject.html">TQObject</a> * parent, const char * name = 0 ) -</h3> -Constructs an action called <em>name</em> with parent <em>parent</em>. -<p> If <em>parent</em> is a <a href="qactiongroup.html">TQActionGroup</a>, the new action inserts itself into -<em>parent</em>. -<p> For accelerators and status tips to work, <em>parent</em> must either be -a widget, or an action group whose parent is a widget. -<p> <b>Warning:</b> To prevent recursion, don't create an action as a child -of a widget that the action is later added to. - -<h3 class=fn><a name="TQAction-2"></a>TQAction::TQAction ( const <a href="qstring.html">TQString</a> & menuText, <a href="qkeysequence.html">TQKeySequence</a> accel, <a href="qobject.html">TQObject</a> * parent, const char * name = 0 ) -</h3> -This constructor results in an icon-less action with the the menu -text <em>menuText</em> and keyboard accelerator <em>accel</em>.
