Detailed Description

A QProxyStyle wraps a QStyle (usually the default system style) for the purpose of dynamically overriding painting or other specific style behavior.

The following example shows how to override the shortcut underline behavior on any platform:

#include "textedit.h"
#include <QApplication>
#include <QProxyStyle>

class MyProxyStyle : public QProxyStyle
{
  public:
    int styleHint(StyleHint hint, const QStyleOption *option = nullptr,
                  const QWidget *widget = nullptr, QStyleHintReturn *returnData = nullptr) const override
    {
        if (hint == QStyle::SH_UnderlineShortcut)
            return 0;
        return QProxyStyle::styleHint(hint, option, widget, returnData);
    }
};

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    Q_INIT_RESOURCE(textedit);

    QApplication a(argc, argv);
    a.setStyle(new MyProxyStyle);
    TextEdit mw;
    mw.resize(700, 800);
    mw.show();
    //...
}

Warning: The common styles provided by Qt will respect this hint, because they call QStyle::proxy(), but there is no guarantee that QStyle::proxy() will be called for user defined or system controlled styles. It would not work on a Mac, for example, where menus are handled by the operating system.

Member Function Documentation

QProxyStyle::QProxyStyle(const QString &key)

Constructs a QProxyStyle object for overriding behavior in the base style specified by style key, or in the current application style if the specified style key is unrecognized.

See also QStyleFactory::create().

QProxyStyle::QProxyStyle(QStyle *style = nullptr)

Constructs a QProxyStyle object for overriding behavior in the specified style, or in the default native style if style is not specified.

Ownership of style is transferred to QProxyStyle.

[virtual] QProxyStyle::~QProxyStyle()

Destroys the QProxyStyle object.

QStyle *QProxyStyle::baseStyle() const

Returns the proxy base style object. If no base style is set on the proxy style, QProxyStyle will create an instance of the application style instead.

See also setBaseStyle() and QStyle.

[override virtual] QRect QProxyStyle::itemPixmapRect(const QRect &r, int flags, const QPixmap &pixmap) const

Reimplements: QStyle::itemPixmapRect(const QRect &rectangle, int alignment, const QPixmap &pixmap) const.

[override virtual] QRect QProxyStyle::itemTextRect(const QFontMetrics &fm, const QRect &r, int flags, bool enabled, const QString &text) const

[override virtual] int QProxyStyle::layoutSpacing(QSizePolicy::ControlType control1, QSizePolicy::ControlType control2, Qt::Orientation orientation, const QStyleOption *option = nullptr, const QWidget *widget = nullptr) const

Reimplements: QCommonStyle::layoutSpacing(QSizePolicy::ControlType control1, QSizePolicy::ControlType control2, Qt::Orientation orientation, const QStyleOption *option, const QWidget *widget) const.

This slot is called by layoutSpacing() to determine the spacing that should be used between control1 and control2 in a layout. orientation specifies whether the controls are laid out side by side or stacked vertically. The option parameter can be used to pass extra information about the parent widget. The widget parameter is optional and can also be used if option is nullptr.

The default implementation returns -1.

Returns an icon for the given standardIcon.

Reimplement this slot to provide your own icons in a QStyle subclass. The option argument can be used to pass extra information required to find the appropriate icon. The widget argument is optional and can also be used to help find the icon.
