- \title Elided Label Example
-
- \brief This example creates a widget similar to QLabel, that elides the last
- visible line, if the text is too long to fit the widget's geometry.
-
- \image elidedlabel-example.png Elided Label example on XPressMusic 5800
-
- When text of varying length has to be displayed in a uniformly sized
- area, for instance within a list or grid view where all list items have the
- same size, it can be useful to give the user a visual clue when not all
- text is visible. QLabel can elide text that doesn't fit within it, but only
- in one line. The \c ElidedLabel widget shown in this example word wraps its
- text by its width, and elides the last visible line if some text is left
- out. \c TestWidget gives control to the features of \c ElidedWidget and
- forms the example application.
-
-
- \section1 ElidedLabel Class Definition
-
- Like QLabel, \c ElidedLabel inherits from QFrame. Here's the definition of
- the \c ElidedLabel class:
-
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/elidedlabel.h 0
-
- The \c isElided property depends the font, text content and geometry of the
- widget. Whenever any of these change, the \c elisionChanged() signal might
- trigger. We cache the current elision value in \c elided, so that it
- doesn't have to be recomputed every time it's asked for.
-
-
- \section1 ElidedLabel Class Implementation
-
- Except for initializing the member variables, the constructor sets the size
- policy to be horizontally expanding, since it's meant to fill the width of
- its container and grow vertically.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/elidedlabel.cpp 0
-
- Changing the \c content require a repaint of the widget.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/elidedlabel.cpp 1
-
- QTextLayout is used in the \c paintEvent() to divide the \c content into
- lines, that wrap on word boundaries. Each line, except the last visible
- one, is drawn \c lineSpacing pixels below the previous one. The \c draw()
- method of QTextLine will draw the line using the coordinate point as the
- top left corner.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/elidedlabel.cpp 2
-
- Unfortunately, QTextLayout does not elide text, so the last visible line
- has to be treated differently. This last line is elided if it is too wide.
- The \c drawText() method of QPainter draws the text starting from the base
- line, which is \c ascecnt() pixels below the last drawn line.
-
- Finally, one more line is created to see if everything fit on this line.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/elidedlabel.cpp 3
-
- If the text was elided and wasn't before or vice versa, cache it in
- \c elided and emit the change.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/elidedlabel.cpp 4
-
-
- \section1 TestWidget Class Definition
-
- \c TestWidget is a QWidget and is the main window of the example. It
- contains an \c ElidedLabel which can be resized with two QSlider widgets.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/testwidget.h 0
-
- \section1 TestWidget Class Implementation
-
- The constructor initializes the whole widget. Strings of different length
- are stored in \c textSamples. The user is able to switch between these.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/testwidget.cpp 0
-
- An \c ElidedLabel is created to contain the first of the sample strings.
- The frame is made visible to make it easier to see the actual size of the
- widget.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/testwidget.cpp 1
-
- The buttons and the elision label are created. By connecting the
- \c elisionChanged() signal to the \c setVisible() slot of the \c label,
- it will act as an indicator to when the text is elided or not. This signal
- could, for instance, be used to make a "More" button visible, or similar.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/testwidget.cpp 2
-
- The \c widthSlider and \c heightSlider specify the size of the
- \c elidedText. Since the y-axis is inverted, the \c heightSlider has to be
- inverted to act appropriately.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/testwidget.cpp 3
-
- The components are all stored in a QGridLayout, which is made the layout of
- the \c TestWidget.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/testwidget.cpp 4
-
- The \c widthSlider and \c heightSlider have the exact same length as the
- dimensions of the \c elidedText. The maximum value for both of them is
- thus their lengths, and each tick indicates one pixel.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/testwidget.cpp 6
-
- The \c switchText() slot simply cycles through all the available sample
- texts.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/testwidget.cpp 7
-
- These slots set the width and height of the \c elided text, in response to
- changes in the sliders.
-
- \section1 The \c main() Function
-
- The \c main() function creates an instance of \c TestWidget fullscreen and
- enters the message loop.
-
- \snippet widgets/elidedlabel/main.cpp 0
