+ \class QWebEngineSettings
+ \since 5.4
+ \brief The QWebEngineSettings class provides an object to store the settings used
+ by QWebEnginePage.
+
+ \inmodule QtWebEngineCore
+
+ QWebEngineSettings allows configuration of browser properties, such as font sizes and
+ families, and generic attributes, such as JavaScript support.
+ Individual attributes are set using the setAttribute() function. The
+ \l{QWebEngineSettings::WebAttribute}{WebAttribute} enum further describes each attribute.
+
+ Each QWebEnginePage object has its own QWebEngineSettings object, which configures the
+ settings for that page. If a setting is not configured for a web engine
+ page, it is looked up in the settings of the profile the page belongs to.
+
+ \sa QWebEnginePage::settings(), QWebEngineView::settings()

+
+/*!
+ \enum QWebEngineSettings::FontFamily
+
+ This enum describes the generic font families defined by CSS 2.
+ For more information see the
+ \l{http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/fonts.html#generic-font-families}{CSS standard}.
+
+ \value StandardFont
+ \value FixedFont
+ \value SerifFont
+ \value SansSerifFont
+ \value CursiveFont
+ \value FantasyFont
+ \value PictographFont
+ (added in Qt 5.7, deprecated Qt 6.4)

+
+/*!
+ \enum QWebEngineSettings::FontSize
+
+ This enum describes the font sizes configurable through QWebEngineSettings:
+
+ \value MinimumFontSize The hard minimum font size.
+ \value MinimumLogicalFontSize The minimum logical font size that is applied
+ when zooming out.
+ \value DefaultFontSize The default font size for regular text.
+ \value DefaultFixedFontSize The default font size for fixed-pitch text.
+*/
+
+/*!
+ \enum QWebEngineSettings::WebAttribute
+
+ This enum type specifies settings for web pages:
+
+ \value AutoLoadImages
+ Automatically dowloads images for web pages. When this setting is
+ disabled, images are loaded from the cache. Enabled by default.
+ \value JavascriptEnabled
+ Enables the running of JavaScript programs in the
+ \l{QWebEngineScript::MainWorld}{MainWorld}. Enabled by default.
+ \value JavascriptCanOpenWindows
+ Allows JavaScript programs to open popup windows without user
+ interaction. Enabled by default.
+ \value JavascriptCanAccessClipboard
+ Allows JavaScript programs to read from and write to the clipboard.
+ Writing to the clipboard is always allowed if it is specifically requested by the user.
+ See JavascriptCanPaste to also allow pasting the content of the clipboard content from
+ JavaScript. Since unrestricted clipboard access is a potential security concern, it is
+ recommended that applications leave this disabled and instead respond to
+ \l{QWebEnginePage::ClipboardReadWrite}{ClipboardReadWrite} feature permission requests.
+ Disabled by default.
+ \value LinksIncludedInFocusChain
+ Includes hyperlinks in the keyboard focus chain. Enabled by default.
+ \value LocalStorageEnabled
+ Enables support for the HTML 5 local storage feature. Enabled by default.
+ \value LocalContentCanAccessRemoteUrls
+ Allows local origin documents to access remote resources that would normally be blocked.
+ Disabled by default. Note DnsPrefetchEnabled below operates independently of this setting,
+ and can if enabled, cause remote accesses from local content.
+ \value XSSAuditingEnabled
+ Obsolete and has no effect.
+ \value SpatialNavigationEnabled
+ Enables the Spatial Navigation feature, which means the ability to navigate between
+ focusable elements, such as hyperlinks and form controls, on a web page by using the
+ Left, Right, Up and Down arrow keys. For example, if a user presses the
+ Right key, heuristics determine whether there is an element they might be
+ trying to reach towards the right and which element they probably want.
+ Disabled by default.
+ \value LocalContentCanAccessFileUrls
+ Allows locally loaded documents to access other local URLs. Disabling this makes QtWebEngine
+ behave more like Chrome and Firefox does by default. Enabled by default.
+ \value HyperlinkAuditingEnabled
+ Enables support for the \c ping attribute for hyperlinks. Disabled by default.
+ \value ScrollAnimatorEnabled
+ Enables animated scrolling. Disabled by default.
+ \value ErrorPageEnabled
+ Enables displaying the built-in error pages of Chromium. Enabled by default.
+ \value PluginsEnabled
+ Enables support for Pepper plugins, such as the Flash player. Disabled by default.
+ See also \l{Pepper Plugin API}. (Added in Qt 5.6)
+ \value FullScreenSupportEnabled
+ Enables fullscreen support in an application. Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.6)
+ \value ScreenCaptureEnabled
+ Enables screen capture in an application. Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.7)
+ \value WebGLEnabled
+ Enables support for HTML 5 WebGL. Enabled by default if available. (Added in Qt 5.7)
+ \value Accelerated2dCanvasEnabled
+ Specifies whether the HTML5 2D canvas should be a OpenGL framebuffer.
+ This makes many painting operations faster, but slows down pixel access. Enabled by default if available. (Added in Qt 5.7)
+ \value AutoLoadIconsForPage
+ Automatically downloads icons for web pages. Enabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.7)
+ \value TouchIconsEnabled
+ Enables support for touch icons and precomposed touch icons
+ Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.7)
+ \value FocusOnNavigationEnabled
+ Gives focus to the view associated with the page, whenever a navigation operation occurs
+ (load, stop, reload, reload and bypass cache, forward, backward, set content, and so
+ on).
+ Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.8)
+ \value PrintElementBackgrounds
+ Turns on printing of CSS backgrounds when printing a web page.
+ Enabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.8)
+ \value AllowRunningInsecureContent
+ By default, HTTPS pages cannot run JavaScript, CSS, plugins or
+ web-sockets from HTTP URLs. This provides an override to get
+ the old insecure behavior.
+ Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.8)
+ \value AllowGeolocationOnInsecureOrigins
+ Since Qt 5.7, only secure origins such as HTTPS have been able to request
+ Geolocation features. This provides an override to allow non secure
+ origins to access Geolocation again.
+ Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.9)
+ \value AllowWindowActivationFromJavaScript
+ Allows activating windows by using the window.focus() JavaScript
+ method. Disabled by default.
+ (Added in Qt 5.10)
+ \value ShowScrollBars
+ Shows scroll bars.
+ Enabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.10)
+ \value PlaybackRequiresUserGesture
+ Inhibits playback of media content until the user interacts with
+ the page. By default, WebEngine uses Chromium settings, as described
+ in \l {Autoplay Policy Changes}. This is similar to how Chrome on
+ Android behaves, while the default behavior when it is disabled is
+ similar to Chrome on desktops. To overwrite the default behavior,
+ disable this setting. (Added in Qt 5.11)
+ \value JavascriptCanPaste
+ Enables JavaScript \c{execCommand("paste")}. This also requires enabling
+ JavascriptCanAccessClipboard. Since unrestricted clipboard access is a potential
+ security concern, it is recommended that applications leave this disabled
+ and instead respond to \l{QWebEnginePage::ClipboardReadWrite}{ClipboardReadWrite}
+ feature permission requests.
+ Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.11)
+ \value WebRTCPublicInterfacesOnly
+ Limits WebRTC to public IP addresses only. When disabled WebRTC may also use
+ local network IP addresses, but remote hosts can also see your local network
+ IP address.
+ Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.11)
+ \value DnsPrefetchEnabled Specifies whether WebEngine will try to pre-fetch DNS entries to
+ speed up browsing.
+ Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.12)
+ \value PdfViewerEnabled Specifies that PDF documents will be opened in the internal PDF viewer
+ instead of being downloaded.
+ Enabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.13)
+ \value NavigateOnDropEnabled Specifies that navigations can be triggered by dropping URLs on
+ the view.
+ Enabled by default. (Added in Qt 6.4)
+ \value ReadingFromCanvasEnabled Specifies that reading from all canvas elements is enabled.
+ This setting will have impact on all HTML5 canvas elements irrespective of origin, and can be disabled
+ to prevent canvas fingerprinting.
+ Enabled by default. (Added in Qt 6.6)
+ \value ForceDarkMode Specifies that all web contents will be rendered using a dark theme.
+ For more information, see \l{https://developer.chrome.com/blog/auto-dark-theme/}{Auto dark theme}.
+ Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 6.7)
