The widget placement depends on whether \c Horizontal or \c Vertical is chosen. \borderedimage dynamiclayouts-example.png For more information, visit the \l{Layout Management} page. \section1 Dialog Constructor To begin with, the application creates the UI components by calling the following methods: \list \li createRotatableGroupBox() \li createOptionsGroupBox() \li createButtonBox() \endlist It then adds the UI components to a GridLayout (\c mainLayout). Finally, \c Dialog::rotateWidgets() is called. \quotefromfile layouts/dynamiclayouts/dialog.cpp \skipuntil createRotatableGroupBox \printuntil setWindowTitle \section1 Creating the Main Widgets The \c createRotatableGroupBox() method creates a rotatable group box, then adds a series of widgets: \list \li QSpinBox \li QSlider \li QDial \li QProgressBar \endlist It goes on to add signals and slots to each widget, and assigns a QGridLayout called \a rotatableLayout. \skipto Dialog::createRotatableGroupBox \printuntil /^\}/ \section1 Adding Options \c createOptionsGroupBox() creates the following widgets: \list \li \c optionsGroupBox \li \c buttonsOrientationLabel \li \c buttonsOrientationComboBox. The orientation of the ComboBox is either \c horizontal (default value) or \c vertical. These two values are added during the startup of the application. It is not possible to leave the option empty. \endlist \skipto Dialog::createOptionsGroupBox() \printuntil /^\}/ \section1 Adding Buttons createButtonBox() constructs a QDialogButtonBox called \c buttonBox to which are added a \c closeButton, a \c helpButton and a \c rotateWidgetsButton. It then assigns a signal and a slot to each button in \c buttonBox. \skipto Dialog::createButtonBox() \printuntil /^\}/ \section1 Rotating the Widgets Removes the current widgets and activates the next widget. \quotefromfile layouts/dynamiclayouts/dialog.cpp \skipto Dialog::rotateWidgets() \printuntil rotatableLayout->addWidget(rotatableWidgets[i] \printuntil } \printuntil } \include examples-run.qdocinc */
