Detailed Description

The QAbstractSpinBox class provides a spinbox and a line edit to display values. The class is designed as a common super class for widgets like QSpinBox, QDoubleSpinBox and QDateTimeEdit.

The following are the main properties of the class.

text
The text that is displayed in the QAbstractSpinBox
alignment
The alignment of the text in the QAbstractSpinBox.
wrapping
Whether the QAbstractSpinBox wraps from the minimum value to the maximum value and vice versa.

QAbstractSpinBox provides a virtual stepBy() method that is called whenever the user triggers a step. This method takes an integer value to signify how many steps were taken. For example, pressing Qt::Key_Down will trigger a call to stepBy(-1).

QAbstractSpinBox also provide a virtual method stepEnabled() to determine whether stepping up/down is allowed at any point. This method returns a bitset of StepEnabled.

QAbstractSpinBox::~QAbstractSpinBox ( )

Destroys this QAbstractSpinBox object.

Method Documentation

Qt::Alignment QAbstractSpinBox::alignment ( ) const

Returns the value of the property.

ButtonSymbols QAbstractSpinBox::buttonSymbols ( ) const

Returns the value of the property.

void QAbstractSpinBox::changeEvent ( QEvent event)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Reimplemented from QWidget::changeEvent()

void QAbstractSpinBox::clear ( )
slot

Clears the lineedit of all text but prefix and suffix.

void QAbstractSpinBox::closeEvent ( QCloseEvent event)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Reimplemented from QWidget::closeEvent()

void QAbstractSpinBox::contextMenuEvent ( QContextMenuEvent event)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Reimplemented from QWidget::contextMenuEvent()

CorrectionMode QAbstractSpinBox::correctionMode ( ) const

Returns the value of the property.

void QAbstractSpinBox::editingFinished ( )
signal

This signal is emitted when editing is finished. This happens when the spinbox loses focus and when enter is pressed.

bool QAbstractSpinBox::event ( QEvent event)
override

Reimplemented from QWidget::event()

void QAbstractSpinBox::fixup ( QString input) const
virtual

This virtual method is called by the QAbstractSpinBox if the input is not validated to QValidator::Acceptable when Return is pressed or interpretText() is called. It will try to change the text so it is valid.

This method is reimplemented in the various subclasses.

Reimplemented in QDateTimeEdit::fixup(), QDoubleSpinBox::fixup(), QSpinBox::fixup()

void QAbstractSpinBox::focusInEvent ( QFocusEvent event)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Reimplemented from QWidget::focusInEvent()

Reimplemented in QDateTimeEdit::focusInEvent()

void QAbstractSpinBox::focusOutEvent ( QFocusEvent event)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Reimplemented from QWidget::focusOutEvent()

bool QAbstractSpinBox::hasAcceptableInput ( ) const

Returns the value of the property.

bool QAbstractSpinBox::hasFrame ( ) const

Returns the value of the property.

void QAbstractSpinBox::hideEvent ( QHideEvent event)
overrideprotectedvirtual

Reimplemented from QWidget::hideEvent()

void QAbstractSpinBox::initStyleOption ( QStyleOptionSpinBox option) const
protected

Initialize option with the values from this QSpinBox. This method is useful for subclasses when they need a QStyleOptionSpinBox, but do not want to fill in all the information themselves.

See also
QStyleOption::initFrom()
QVariant QAbstractSpinBox::inputMethodQuery ( Qt::InputMethodQuery  query) const
overridevirtual

Reimplemented from QWidget::inputMethodQuery()

void QAbstractSpinBox::interpretText ( )

This method interprets the text of the spin box. If the value has changed since last interpretation it will emit signals.

bool QAbstractSpinBox::isAccelerated ( ) const

Returns the value of the property.

bool QAbstractSpinBox::isGroupSeparatorShown ( ) const

Returns the value of the property.

bool QAbstractSpinBox::isReadOnly ( ) const

Returns the value of the property.

bool QAbstractSpinBox::keyboardTracking ( ) const

Returns the value of the property.

void QAbstractSpinBox::keyPressEvent ( QKeyEvent event)
overrideprotectedvirtual

This method handles keyboard input. The following keys are handled specifically.

void QAbstractSpinBox::stepBy ( int  steps)
virtual

Called whenever the user triggers a step. The steps parameter indicates how many steps were taken. For example, pressing Qt::Key_Down will trigger a call to stepBy(-1) and pressing Qt::Key_Prior will trigger a call to stepBy(10). This method is called even if the resulting value will be outside the bounds of minimum and maximum.

Classes which inherit from QAbstractSpinBox should reimplement this method.

Reimplemented in QDateTimeEdit::stepBy()

void QAbstractSpinBox::stepDown ( )
slot

Steps down by one linestep. Calling this slot is equivalent to calling stepBy(-1);

See also
stepBy(), stepUp()
StepEnabled QAbstractSpinBox::stepEnabled ( ) const
protectedvirtual

Determines whether stepping up and down is legal at any given time.

If wrapping is enabled this method will return (StepUpEnabled | StepDownEnabled). If wrapping is disabled and the value of the spin box is equal to the minimum value, this method will return StepUpEnabled. If wrapping is disabled and the value of the spin box is equal to the maximum value, this method will return StepDownEnabled.

Classes which inherit from QAbstractSpinBox should reimplement this method.

bool QAbstractSpinBox::wrapping ( ) const

Returns the value of the property.

Property Documentation

QAbstractSpinBox::accelerated

This property holds whether the spin box will accelerate the frequency of the steps when pressing the step Up/Down buttons.

If enabled the spin box will increase/decrease the value faster the longer you hold the button down.

PropertiesClass Methods
read isAccelerated
write setAccelerated
QAbstractSpinBox::acceptableInput

This property holds whether the input satisfies the current validation.

validate(), fixup(), correctionMode
PropertiesClass Methods
read hasAcceptableInput
QAbstractSpinBox::alignment

This property holds the alignment of the spin box. Possible Values are Qt::AlignLeft, Qt::AlignRight, and Qt::AlignHCenter. By default, the alignment is Qt::AlignLeft. Attempting to set the alignment to an illegal flag combination does nothing.

Qt::Alignment
PropertiesClass Methods
read alignment
write setAlignment
QAbstractSpinBox::buttonSymbols

This property holds the current button symbol mode. The possible values can be either UpDownArrows or PlusMinus. The default is UpDownArrows. Some styles might render PlusMinus and UpDownArrows identically.

write setButtonSymbols
QAbstractSpinBox::correctionMode

This property holds the mode to correct an Intermediate value if editing finishes. The default mode is QAbstractSpinBox::CorrectToPreviousValue.

acceptableInput, validate(), fixup()
PropertiesClass Methods
read correctionMode
write setCorrectionMode
QAbstractSpinBox::frame

This property holds whether the spin box draws itself with a frame. If enabled (the default) the spin box draws itself inside a frame, otherwise the spin box draws itself without any frame.

PropertiesClass Methods
read hasFrame
write setFrame
QAbstractSpinBox::keyboardTracking

This property holds whether keyboard tracking is enabled for the current spinbox. If keyboard tracking is enabled (the default) the spinbox emits the valueChanged() signal while the new value is being entered from the keyboard. For example, when the user enters the value 600 by typing 6, 0, and 0, the spinbox emits 3 signals with the values 6, 60, and 600 respectively.

If keyboard tracking is disabled, the spinbox does not emit the valueChanged() signal while the user is typing. In this case the signal will be emitted later when the return key is pressed, keyboard focus is lost, or when some other other spinbox input occurs.

PropertiesClass Methods
read keyboardTracking
write setKeyboardTracking
QAbstractSpinBox::readOnly

This property holds whether the spin box is read only. In read only mode, the user can still copy the text to the clipboard, or drag and drop the text; but can not edit it. The QLineEdit in the QAbstractSpinBox does not show a cursor in read only mode.

See also
QLineEdit::readOnly
PropertiesClass Methods
read isReadOnly
write setReadOnly
QAbstractSpinBox::specialValueText

This property holds the special-value text. If no special-value text is set then specialValueText() returns an empty string. The default is no special-value text.

If set, the spin box will display this text instead of a numeric value whenever the current value is equal to minimum(). Typical use is to indicate that this choice has a special (default) meaning. For example, if your spin box allows the user to choose a scale factor (or zoom level) for displaying an image, and your application is able to automatically choose one that will enable the image to fit completely within the display window, you can set up the spin box like this.

QSpinBox *zoomSpinBox = new QSpinBox;
zoomSpinBox->setRange(0, 1000);
zoomSpinBox->setSingleStep(10);
zoomSpinBox->setSuffix("%");
zoomSpinBox->setSpecialValueText(tr("Automatic"));
zoomSpinBox->setValue(100);

The user will then be able to choose a scale from 1% to 1000% or select "Automatic" to leave it up to the application to choose. Your code must then interpret the spin box value of 0 as a request from the user to scale the image to fit inside the window.

All values are displayed with the prefix and suffix (if set), except for the special value, which only shows the special value text. This special text is passed in the QSpinBox::valueChanged() signal that passes a QString.

PropertiesClass Methods
read specialValueText
write setSpecialValueText
QAbstractSpinBox::text

This property holds the spin box's text, including any prefix and suffix. There is no default text.

PropertiesClass Methods
read text
QAbstractSpinBox::wrapping

This property holds whether the spin box is circular. If wrapping is true stepping up from maximum() value will take you to the minimum() value and vice versa. Wrapping only make sense if you have minimum() and maximum() values set.

QSpinBox *spinBox = new QSpinBox(this);
spinBox->setRange(0, 100);
spinBox->setWrapping(true);
spinBox->setValue(100);
spinBox->stepBy(1); // value is 0
