Detailed Description

The QX11Info class provides information about the X display configuration.

The class provides two APIs: a set of non-static functions that provide information about a specific widget or pixmap, and a set of static functions that provide the default information for the application.

Warning: This class is only available on X11. For querying per-screen information in a portable way, use QDesktopWidget.

See also QWidget::x11Info(), QPixmap::x11Info(), and QDesktopWidget.

Member Function Documentation

QX11Info::QX11Info()

Constructs an empty QX11Info object.

QX11Info::QX11Info(const QX11Info & other)

Constructs a copy of other.

QX11Info::~QX11Info()

Destroys the QX11Info object.

[static] int QX11Info::appCells(int screen = -1)

Returns the number of cells used by the application on the given screen.

The screen argument is an X screen number. Be aware that if the user's system uses Xinerama (as opposed to traditional X11 multiscreen), there is only one X screen. Use QDesktopWidget to query for information about Xinerama screens.

See also cells().

[static] const char * QX11Info::appClass()

Returns the X11 application class.

See also display().

[static] Qt::HANDLE QX11Info::appColormap(int screen = -1)

Returns a handle for the application's color map on the given screen.

The screen argument is an X screen number. Be aware that if the user's system uses Xinerama (as opposed to traditional X11 multiscreen), there is only one X screen. Use QDesktopWidget to query for information about Xinerama screens.

See also colormap() and defaultColormap().

[static] bool QX11Info::appDefaultColormap(int screen = -1)

Returns true if the application has a default color map on the given screen; otherwise returns false.

The screen argument is an X screen number. Be aware that if the user's system uses Xinerama (as opposed to traditional X11 multiscreen), there is only one X screen. Use QDesktopWidget to query for information about Xinerama screens.

[static] bool QX11Info::appDefaultVisual(int screen = -1)

Returns true if the application has a default visual on the given screen; otherwise returns false.

The screen argument is an X screen number. Be aware that if the user's system uses Xinerama (as opposed to traditional X11 multiscreen), there is only one X screen. Use QDesktopWidget to query for information about Xinerama screens.

[static] int QX11Info::appDepth(int screen = -1)

Returns the color depth (bits per pixel) used by the application on the given screen.

The screen argument is an X screen number. Be aware that if the user's system uses Xinerama (as opposed to traditional X11 multiscreen), there is only one X screen. Use QDesktopWidget to query for information about Xinerama screens.

See also depth().

[static] int QX11Info::appDpiX(int screen = -1)

Returns the horizontal resolution of the given screen in terms of the number of dots per inch.

The screen argument is an X screen number. Be aware that if the user's system uses Xinerama (as opposed to traditional X11 multiscreen), there is only one X screen. Use QDesktopWidget to query for information about Xinerama screens.

See also setAppDpiX() and appDpiY().

[static] int QX11Info::appDpiY(int screen = -1)

Returns the vertical resolution of the given screen in terms of the number of dots per inch.

The screen argument is an X screen number. Be aware that if the user's system uses Xinerama (as opposed to traditional X11 multiscreen), there is only one X screen. Use QDesktopWidget to query for information about Xinerama screens.

See also setAppDpiY() and appDpiX().

[static] Qt::HANDLE QX11Info::appRootWindow(int screen = -1)

Returns a handle for the applications root window on the given screen.

The screen argument is an X screen number. Be aware that if the user's system uses Xinerama (as opposed to traditional X11 multiscreen), there is only one X screen. Use QDesktopWidget to query for information about Xinerama screens.
