public abstract class QGraphicsLayoutItem
extends QtJambiObject
implements QGraphicsLayoutItemInterface

The QGraphicsLayoutItem class can be inherited to allow your custom items to be managed by layouts. QGraphicsLayoutItem is an abstract class that defines a set of virtual functions describing sizes, size policies, and size hints for any object arranged by QGraphicsLayout. The API contains functions relevant for both the item itself and for the user of the item as most of QGraphicsLayoutItem's functions are also part of the subclass' public API.

In most cases, existing layout-aware classes such as QGraphicsWidget and QGraphicsLayout already provide the functionality you require. However, subclassing these classes will enable you to create both graphical elements that work well with layouts (QGraphicsWidget) or custom layouts (QGraphicsLayout).

Subclassing QGraphicsLayoutItem

If you create a subclass of QGraphicsLayoutItem and reimplement its virtual functions, you will enable the layout to resize and position your item along with other QGraphicsLayoutItems including QGraphicsWidget and QGraphicsLayout.

You can start by reimplementing important functions: the protected sizeHint() function, as well as the public setGeometry() function. If you want your items to be aware of immediate geometry changes, you can also reimplement updateGeometry().

The geometry, size hint, and size policy affect the item's size and position. Calling setGeometry() will always resize and reposition the item immediately. Normally, this function is called by QGraphicsLayout after the layout has been activated, but it can also be called by the item's user at any time.

The sizeHint() function returns the item' minimum, preferred and maximum size hints. You can override these properties by calling setMinimumSize(), setPreferredSize() or setMaximumSize(). You can also use functions such as setMinimumWidth() or setMaximumHeight() to set only the width or height component if desired.

The effectiveSizeHint() function, on the other hand, returns a size hint for any given Qt::SizeHint , and guarantees that the returned size is bound to the minimum and maximum sizes and size hints. You can set the item's vertical and horizontal size policy by calling setSizePolicy(). The sizePolicy property is used by the layout system to describe how this item prefers to grow or shrink.

Nesting QGraphicsLayoutItems

QGraphicsLayoutItems can be nested within other QGraphicsLayoutItems, similar to layouts that can contain sublayouts. This is done either by passing a QGraphicsLayoutItem pointer to QGraphicsLayoutItem's protected constructor, or by calling setParentLayoutItem(). The parentLayoutItem() function returns a pointer to the item's layoutItem parent. If the item's parent is 0 or if the the parent does not inherit from QGraphicsItem, the parentLayoutItem() function then returns 0. isLayout() returns true if the QGraphicsLayoutItem subclass is itself a layout, or false otherwise.

Qt uses QGraphicsLayoutItem to provide layout functionality in the The Graphics View Framework, but in the future its use may spread throughout Qt itself.

Constructor Detail

QGraphicsLayoutItem

public QGraphicsLayoutItem(QGraphicsLayoutItemInterface parent)

Constructs the QGraphicsLayoutItem object. parent becomes the object's parent. If isLayout is true the item is a layout, otherwise isLayout is false.

QGraphicsLayoutItem

public QGraphicsLayoutItem()

Constructs the QGraphicsLayoutItem object. parent becomes the object's parent. If isLayout is true the item is a layout, otherwise isLayout is false.

QGraphicsLayoutItem

public QGraphicsLayoutItem(QGraphicsLayoutItemInterface parent,
                           boolean isLayout)

Constructs the QGraphicsLayoutItem object. parent becomes the object's parent. If isLayout is true the item is a layout, otherwise isLayout is false.

Method Detail

contentsRect

public final QRectF contentsRect()

Returns the contents rect in local coordinates.

The contents rect defines the subrectangle used by an associated layout when arranging subitems. This function is a convenience function that adjusts the item's geometry() by its contents margins. Note that getContentsMargins() is a virtual function that you can reimplement to return the item's contents margins.

getContentsMargins(), and geometry().

effectiveSizeHint

public final QSizeF effectiveSizeHint(Qt.SizeHint which)

Returns the effective size hint for this QGraphicsLayoutItem.

which is the size hint in question. constraint is an optional argument that defines a special constrain when calculating the effective size hint. By default, constraint is QSizeF(-1, -1), which means there is no constraint to the size hint.

If you want to specify the widget's size hint for a given width or height, you can provide the fixed dimension in constraint. This is useful for widgets that can grow only either vertically or horizontally, and need to set either their width or their height to a special value.

For example, a text paragraph item fit into a column width of 200 may grow vertically. You can pass QSizeF(200, -1) as a constraint to get a suitable minimum, preferred and maximum height).

You can adjust the effective size hint by reimplementing sizeHint() in a QGraphicsLayoutItem subclass, or by calling one of the following functions: setMinimumSize(), setPreferredSize, or setMaximumSize() (or a combination of both).

This function caches each of the size hints and guarantees that sizeHint() will be called only once for each value of which - unless constraint is not specified and updateGeometry() has been called.

sizeHint().

effectiveSizeHint

public final QSizeF effectiveSizeHint(Qt.SizeHint which,
                                      QSizeF constraint)

ownedByLayout

public final boolean ownedByLayout()

Returns whether a layout should delete this item in its destructor. If its true, then the layout will delete it. If its false, then it is assumed that another object has the ownership of it, and the layout won't delete this item.

If the item inherits both QGraphicsItem and QGraphicsLayoutItem (such as QGraphicsWidget does) the item is really part of two ownership hierarchies. This property informs what the layout should do with its child items when it is destructed. In the case of QGraphicsWidget, it is preferred that when the layout is deleted it won't delete its children (since they are also part of the graphics item hierarchy).

By default this value is initialized to false in QGraphicsLayoutItem, but it is overridden by QGraphicsLayout to return true. This is because QGraphicsLayout is not normally part of the QGraphicsItem hierarchy, so the parent layout should delete it. Subclasses might override this default behaviour by calling setOwnedByLayout(true).
