Detailed Description

The QFormLayout class manages two column forms of input widgets and their associated labels. The left column is usually the label control and the right column is a widget like a text line editor, spin box or combo box.

Using a QFormLayout has the following advantages over using a a QGridLayout.

  • Uses the platform look and feel. For example, Mac OS X and KDE guidelines specify the labels should be right aligned. While Windows and GNOME applications normally use left alignment.
  • For devices with small displays, QFormLayout can be set to wrap long rows or even to wrap all rows.
  • Convenient API for creating label field pairs.

Appearance

The table below shows the default appearance in different styles.

QCommonStyle Derived StylesQMacStyleQFusionStyleExtended Styles
Traditional style used for Windows, GNOME, and earlier versions of KDE. Labels are left aligned, and expanding fields grow to fill the available space.Style based on the Mac OS X Aqua guidelines. Labels are right-aligned, the fields do not grow beyond their size hint, and the form is horizontally centered.Recommended style for KDE applications. Similar to MacStyle, except that the form is left-aligned and all fields grow to fill the available space.Default style for CopperSpice Extended styles. Labels are right-aligned, expanding fields grow to fill the available space, and row wrapping is enabled for long lines.

The styles can be overridden by calling setLabelAlignment(), setFormAlignment(), setFieldGrowthPolicy(), and setRowWrapPolicy(). For example, to simulate the form layout appearance of QMacStyle use the following code.

formLayout->setRowWrapPolicy(QFormLayout::DontWrapRows);
formLayout->setFieldGrowthPolicy(QFormLayout::FieldsStayAtSizeHint);
formLayout->setFormAlignment(Qt::AlignHCenter | Qt::AlignTop);
formLayout->setLabelAlignment(Qt::AlignRight);

Example

Here is an example using QGridLayout.

// nameLineEdit, mailLineEdit, ageSpinBox widgets already constructed
nameLabel = new QLabel(tr("&Name:"));
nameLabel->setBuddy(nameLineEdit);
emailLabel = new QLabel(tr("&Email address:"));
emailLabel->setBuddy(emailLineEdit);
ageLabel = new QLabel(tr("&Age:"));
ageLabel->setBuddy(ageSpinBox);
QGridLayout *gridLayout = new QGridLayout;
gridLayout->addWidget(nameLabel, 0, 0);
gridLayout->addWidget(nameLineEdit, 0, 1);
gridLayout->addWidget(emailLabel, 1, 0);
gridLayout->addWidget(emailLineEdit, 1, 1);
gridLayout->addWidget(ageLabel, 2, 0);
gridLayout->addWidget(ageSpinBox, 2, 1);
setLayout(gridLayout);

The following code uses QGridLayout and will produce a very similar output.

// nameLineEdit, mailLineEdit, ageSpinBox widgets already constructed
QFormLayout *formLayout = new QFormLayout;
formLayout->addRow(tr("&Name:"), nameLineEdit);
formLayout->addRow(tr("&Email address:"), emailLineEdit);
formLayout->addRow(tr("&Age:"), ageSpinBox);
setLayout(formLayout);

Member Enumeration Documentation

This enum specifies the different policies that can be used to control the way in which the form's fields grow.

ConstantValueDescription
QFormLayout::FieldsStayAtSizeHint 0 The fields never grow beyond their effective size hint. This is the default for QMacStyle.
QFormLayout::ExpandingFieldsGrow 1 Fields with an horizontal size policy of Expanding or MinimumExpanding will grow to fill the available space. The other fields will not grow beyond their effective size hint. This is the default policy for Fusion.
QFormLayout::AllNonFixedFieldsGrow2 All fields with a size policy that allows them to grow will grow to fill the available space. This is the default policy for most styles.
See also
fieldGrowthPolicy

This enum specifies the types of widgets (or other layout items) that may appear in a row.

ConstantValueDescription
QFormLayout::LabelRole0 Label widget.
QFormLayout::FieldRole1 Field widget.
QFormLayout::SpanningRole2 Widget that spans label and field columns.
See also
itemAt(), getItemPosition()

This enum specifies the different policies that can be used to control the way in which the form's rows wrap.

ConstantValueDescription
QFormLayout::DontWrapRows0 Fields are always laid out next to their label. This is the default policy for all styles except Extended styles.
QFormLayout::WrapLongRows1 Labels are given enough horizontal space to fit the widest label, and the rest of the space is given to the fields. If the minimum size of a field pair is wider than the available space, the field is wrapped to the next line. This is the default policy for Extended styles.
QFormLayout::WrapAllRows2 Fields are always laid out below their label.

Property Documentation

QFormLayout::fieldGrowthPolicy

This property holds the way in which the form's fields grow.

The default value depends on the widget or application style. For QMacStyle, the default is FieldsStayAtSizeHint; for QCommonStyle derived styles (like Fusion and Windows), the default is ExpandingFieldsGrow; for CopperSpice Extended styles, the default is AllNonFixedFieldsGrow.

If none of the fields can grow and the form is resized, extra space is distributed according to the current form alignment.

QFormLayout::formAlignment

This property holds the alignment of the form layout's contents within the layout's geometry. The default value depends on the widget or application style. For QMacStyle, the default is Qt::AlignHCenter | Qt::AlignTop, for the other styles the default is Qt::AlignLeft | Qt::AlignTop.

QFormLayout::labelAlignment
