- \title Order Form Example
-
- The Order Form example shows how to generate rich text documents by
- combining a simple template with data input by the user in a dialog. Data
- is extracted from a \c DetailsDialog object and displayed on a QTextEdit
- with a QTextCursor, using various formats. Each form generated is added
- to a QTabWidget for easy access.
-
- \image orderform-example.png
-
- \section1 DetailsDialog Definition
-
- The \c DetailsDialog class is a subclass of QDialog, implementing a slot
- \c verify() to allow contents of the \c DetailsDialog to be verified later.
- This is further explained in \c DetailsDialog Implementation.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/detailsdialog.h 0
-
- The constructor of \c DetailsDialog accepts parameters \a title and
- \a parent. The class defines four \e{getter} functions: \c orderItems(),
- \c senderName(), \c senderAddress(), and \c sendOffers() to allow data
- to be accessed externally.
-
- The class definition includes input widgets for the required
- fields, \c nameEdit and \c addressEdit. Also, a QCheckBox and a
- QDialogButtonBox are defined; the former to provide the user with the
- option to receive information on products and offers, and the latter
- to ensure that buttons used are arranged according to the user's native
- platform. In addition, a QTableWidget, \c itemsTable, is used to hold
- order details.
-
- The screenshot below shows the \c DetailsDialog we intend to create.
-
- \image orderform-example-detailsdialog.png
-
- \section1 DetailsDialog Implementation
-
- The constructor of \c DetailsDialog instantiates the earlier defined fields
- and their respective labels. The label for \c offersCheckBox is set and the
- \c setupItemsTable() function is invoked to setup and populate
- \c itemsTable. The QDialogButtonBox object, \c buttonBox, is instantiated
- with \uicontrol OK and \uicontrol Cancel buttons. This \c buttonBox's \c accepted() and
- \c rejected() signals are connected to the \c verify() and \c reject()
- slots in \c DetailsDialog.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/detailsdialog.cpp 0
-
- A QGridLayout is used to place all the objects on the \c DetailsDialog.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/detailsdialog.cpp 1
-
- The \c setupItemsTable() function instantiates the QTableWidget object,
- \c itemsTable, and sets the number of rows based on the QStringList
- object, \c items, which holds the type of items ordered. The number of
- columns is set to 2, providing a "name" and "quantity" layout. A \c for
- loop is used to populate the \c itemsTable and the \c name item's flag
- is set to Qt::ItemIsEnabled or Qt::ItemIsSelectable. For demonstration
- purposes, the \c quantity item is set to a 1 and all items in the
- \c itemsTable have this value for quantity; but this can be modified by
- editing the contents of the cells at run time.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/detailsdialog.cpp 2
-
- The \c orderItems() function extracts data from the \c itemsTable and
- returns it in the form of a QList<QPair<QString,int>> where each QPair
- corresponds to an item and the quantity ordered.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/detailsdialog.cpp 3
-
- The \c senderName() function is used to return the value of the QLineEdit
- used to store the name field for the order form.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/detailsdialog.cpp 4
-
- The \c senderAddress() function is used to return the value of the
- QTextEdit containing the address for the order form.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/detailsdialog.cpp 5
-
- The \c sendOffers() function is used to return a \c true or \c false
- value that is used to determine if the customer in the order form
- wishes to receive more information on the company's offers and promotions.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/detailsdialog.cpp 6
-
- The \c verify() function is an additionally implemented slot used to
- verify the details entered by the user into the \c DetailsDialog. If
- the details entered are incomplete, a QMessageBox is displayed
- providing the user the option to discard the \c DetailsDialog. Otherwise,
- the details are accepted and the \c accept() function is invoked.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/detailsdialog.cpp 7
-
- \section1 MainWindow Definition
-
- The \c MainWindow class is a subclass of QMainWindow, implementing two
- slots - \c openDialog() and \c printFile(). It also contains a private
- instance of QTabWidget, \c letters.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.h 0
-
- \section1 MainWindow Implementation
-
- The \c MainWindow constructor sets up the \c fileMenu and the required
- actions, \c newAction and \c printAction. These actions' \c triggered()
- signals are connected to the additionally implemented openDialog() slot
- and the default close() slot. The QTabWidget, \c letters, is
- instantiated and set as the window's central widget.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 0
-
- The \c createLetter() function creates a new QTabWidget with a QTextEdit,
- \c editor, as the parent. This function accepts four parameters that
- correspond to we obtained through \c DetailsDialog, in order to "fill"
- the \c editor.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 1
-
- We then obtain the cursor for the \c editor using QTextEdit::textCursor().
- The \c cursor is then moved to the start of the document using
- QTextCursor::Start.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 2
-
- Recall the structure of a \l{Rich Text Document Structure}
- {Rich Text Document}, where sequences of frames and
- tables are always separated by text blocks, some of which may contain no
- information.
-
- In the case of the Order Form Example, the document structure for this portion
- is described by the table below:
-
- \table
- \row
- \li {1, 8} frame with \e{referenceFrameFormat}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{A company}
- \row
- \li block
- \row
- \li block \li \c{321 City Street}
- \row
- \li block
- \row
- \li block \li \c{Industry Park}
- \row
- \li block
- \row
- \li block \li \c{Another country}
- \endtable
-
- This is accomplished with the following code:
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 3
-
- Note that \c topFrame is the \c {editor}'s top-level frame and is not shown
- in the document structure.
-
- We then set the \c{cursor}'s position back to its last position in
- \c topFrame and fill in the customer's name (provided by the constructor)
- and address - using a \c foreach loop to traverse the QString, \c address.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 4
-
- The \c cursor is now back in \c topFrame and the document structure for
- the above portion of code is:
-
- \table
- \row
- \li block \li \c{Donald}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{47338 Park Avenue}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{Big City}
- \endtable
-
- For spacing purposes, we invoke \l{QTextCursor::insertBlock()}
- {insertBlock()} twice. The \l{QDate::currentDate()}{currentDate()} is
- obtained and displayed. We use \l{QTextFrameFormat::setWidth()}
- {setWidth()} to increase the width of \c bodyFrameFormat and we insert
- a new frame with that width.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 5
-
- The following code inserts standard text into the order form.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 6
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 7
-
- This part of the document structure now contains the date, a frame with
- \c bodyFrameFormat, as well as the standard text.
-
- \table
- \row
- \li block
- \row
- \li block
- \row
- \li block \li \c{Date: 25 May 2007}
- \row
- \li block
- \row
- \li {1, 4} frame with \e{bodyFrameFormat}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{I would like to place an order for the following items:}
- \row
- \li block
- \row
- \li block
- \endtable
-
- A QTextTableFormat object, \c orderTableFormat, is used to hold the type
- of item and the quantity ordered.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 8
-
- We use \l{QTextTable::cellAt()}{cellAt()} to set the headers for the
- \c orderTable.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 9
-
- Then, we iterate through the QList of QPair objects to populate
- \c orderTable.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 10
-
- The resulting document structure for this section is:
-
- \table
- \row
- \li {1, 11} \c{orderTable} with \e{orderTableFormat}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{Product}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{Quantity}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{T-shirt}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{4}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{Badge}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{3}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{Reference book}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{2}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{Coffee cup}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{5}
- \endtable
-
- The \c cursor is then moved back to \c{topFrame}'s
- \l{QTextFrame::lastPosition()}{lastPosition()} and more standard text
- is inserted.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 11
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 12
-
- Another QTextTable is inserted, to display the customer's
- preference regarding offers.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 13
-
- The document structure for this portion is:
-
- \table
- \row
- \li block
- \row
- \li block\li \c{Please update my...}
- \row
- \li {1, 5} block
- \row
- \li {1, 4} \c{offersTable}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{I want to receive...}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{I do not want to receive...}
- \row
- \li block \li \c{X}
- \endtable
-
- The \c cursor is moved to insert "Sincerely" along with the customer's
- name. More blocks are inserted for spacing purposes. The \c printAction
- is enabled to indicate that an order form can now be printed.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 14
-
- The bottom portion of the document structure is:
-
- \table
- \row
- \li block
- \row
- \li {1, 5} block\li \c{Sincerely,}
- \row
- \li block
- \row
- \li block
- \row
- \li block
- \row
- \li block \li \c{Donald}
- \endtable
-
- The \c createSample() function is used for illustration purposes, to create
- a sample order form.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 15
-
- The \c openDialog() function opens a \c DetailsDialog object. If the
- details in \c dialog are accepted, the \c createLetter() function is
- invoked using the parameters extracted from \c dialog.
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 16
-
- In order to print out the order form, a \c printFile() function is
- included, as shown below:
-
- \snippet examples/richtext/orderform/mainwindow.cpp 17
-
- This function also allows the user to print a selected area with
- QTextCursor::hasSelection(), instead of printing the entire document.
-
- \section1 \c main() Function
-
- The \c main() function instantiates \c MainWindow and sets its size to
- 640x480 pixels before invoking the \c show() function and
- \c createSample() function.
