Here are the five main concepts in +the class: +<p> <ol type=1> +<p> <li> <em>Current value</em> The bounded integer that +TQRangeControl maintains. <a href="#value">value</a>() returns it, and several +functions, including <a href="#setValue">setValue</a>(), set it. +<p> <li> <em>Minimum</em> The lowest value that value() can ever +return. Returned by <a href="#minValue">minValue</a>() and set by <a href="#setRange">setRange</a>() or one of the +constructors. +<p> <li> <em>Maximum</em> The highest value that value() can ever +return. Returned by <a href="#maxValue">maxValue</a>() and set by setRange() or one of the +constructors. +<p> <li> <em>Line step</em> The smaller of two natural steps that +TQRangeControl provides and typically corresponds to the user +pressing an arrow key. The line step is returned by <a href="#lineStep">lineStep</a>() +and set using <a href="#setSteps">setSteps</a>(). The functions <a href="#addLine">addLine</a>() and +<a href="#subtractLine">subtractLine</a>() respectively increment and decrement the current +value by lineStep(). +<p> <li> <em>Page step</em> The larger of two natural steps that +TQRangeControl provides and typically corresponds to the user +pressing PageUp or PageDown. The page step is returned by +<a href="#pageStep">pageStep</a>() and set using setSteps(). The functions <a href="#addPage">addPage</a>() and +substractPage() respectively increment and decrement the current +value by pageStep(). +<p> </ol> +<p> Unity (1) may be viewed as a third step size. <a href="#setValue">setValue</a>() lets you +set the current value to any integer in the allowed range, not +just <a href="#minValue">minValue</a>() + <em>n</em> * lineStep() for integer values of <em>n</em>. +Some widgets may allow the user to set any value at all; others +may just provide multiples of lineStep() or pageStep(). +<p> TQRangeControl provides three virtual functions that are well +suited for updating the on-screen representation of range controls +and emitting signals: <a href="#valueChange">valueChange</a>(), <a href="#rangeChange">rangeChange</a>() and +<a href="#stepChange">stepChange</a>(). +<p> TQRangeControl also provides a function called <a href="#bound">bound</a>() which lets +you force arbitrary integers to be within the allowed range of the +range control. +<p> We recommend that all widgets that inherit TQRangeControl provide +at least a signal called valueChanged(); many widgets will want to +provide addStep(), <a href="#addPage">addPage</a>(), substractStep() and substractPage() +as slots. +<p> Note that you must use multiple inheritance if you plan to +implement a widget using TQRangeControl because TQRangeControl is +not derived from <a href="tqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>. +<p>See also <a href="misc.html">Miscellaneous Classes</a>. + +<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2> +<h3 class=fn><a name="TQRangeControl"></a>TQRangeControl::TQRangeControl () +</h3> +Constructs a range control with a minimum value of 0, maximum +value of 99, line step of 1, page step of 10 and initial value 0. + +<h3 class=fn><a name="TQRangeControl-2"></a>TQRangeControl::TQRangeControl ( int minValue, int maxValue, int lineStep, int pageStep, int value ) +</h3> +Constructs a range control whose value can never be smaller than +<em>minValue</em> or greater than <em>maxValue</em>, whose line step size is +<em>lineStep</em> and page step size is <em>pageStep</em> and whose value is +initially <em>value</em> (which is guaranteed to be in range using +<a href="#bound">bound</a>()). + +<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQRangeControl"></a>TQRangeControl::~TQRangeControl ()<tt> [virtual]</tt> +</h3> +Destroys the range control + +<h3 class=fn>void <a name="addLine"></a>TQRangeControl::addLine () +</h3> +Equivalent to <tt>setValue( value() + lineStep() )</tt>. +<p> If the value is changed, then <a href="#valueChange">valueChange</a>() is called. +<p> <p>See also <a href="#subtractLine">subtractLine</a>(), <a href="#addPage">addPage</a>(), and <a href="#setValue">setValue</a>(). + +<h3 class=fn>void <a name="addPage"></a>TQRangeControl::addPage () +</h3> +Equivalent to <tt>setValue( value() + pageStep() )</tt>. +<p> If the value is changed, then <a href="#valueChange">valueChange</a>() is called. +<p> <p>See also <a href="#subtractPage">subtractPage</a>(), <a href="#addLine">addLine</a>(), and <a href="#setValue">setValue</a>(). + +<h3 class=fn>int <a name="bound"></a>TQRangeControl::bound ( int v ) const +</h3> +Forces the value <em>v</em> to be within the range from <a href="#minValue">minValue</a>() to +<a href="#maxValue">maxValue</a>() inclusive, and returns the result. +<p> This function is provided so that you can easily force other +numbers than <a href="#value">value</a>() into the allowed range.
