- \class QDesktopWidget
- \brief The QDesktopWidget class provides access to screen information on multi-head systems.
-
- \ingroup advanced
- \ingroup desktop
-
- Systems with more than one graphics card and monitor can manage the
- physical screen space available either as multiple desktops, or as a
- large virtual desktop.
-
- This class provides information about the user's desktop, such as its
- total size, number of screens, the geometry of each screen, and whether
- they are configured as separate desktops or a single virtual desktop.
-
- Widgets provided by Qt use this class to place tooltips, menus and
- dialog boxes on the correct screen for their parent or application
- widgets. Applications can use this class to obtain information that
- can be used to save window positions, or to place child widgets and
- dialogs on one particular screen.
-
- \section1 Obtaining a Desktop Widget
-
- The QApplication::desktop() function is used to get an instance of
- QDesktopWidget.
-
- The widget's screenGeometry() function provides information about the
- geometry of the available screens with. The number of screens
- available is returned by screenCount, and the screenCountChanged()
- signal is emitted when screens are added or removed.
- The screen number that a particular point or widget is located in
- is returned by screenNumber().
-
- \section1 Screen Geometry
-
- To obtain the dimensions of a particular screen, call the screenGeometry()
- function. On some desktop environments, not all of the screen is
- available for applications to use; for example, an application dock or
- menu bar may take up some space. Use the availableGeometry() function
- to obtain the available area for applications.
-
- QDesktopWidget also inherits the QWidget properties, width() and
- height(), which specify the size of the desktop. However, for
- desktops with multiple screens, the size of the desktop is the union
- of all the screen sizes, so width() and height() should \e not be
- used for computing the size of a widget to be placed on one of the
- screens.
-
- On systems that are configured to use the available screens as a
- single, large virtual desktop, the virtualDesktop property will be
- set to true. In this case, the widget's size is usually the size of
- the bounding rectangle of all the screens.
-
- \section1 Use of the Primary Screen
-
- For an application, the screen where the main widget resides is the
- primary screen. This is stored in the primaryScreen property.
- All windows opened in the context of the application should be
- constrained to the boundaries of the primary screen; for example,
- it would be inconvenient if a dialog box popped up on a different
- screen, or split over two screens.
-
- \image qdesktopwidget.png Managing Multiple Screens
-
- In the illustration above, Application One's primary screen is
- screen 0, and App Two's primary screen is screen 1.
