## Detailed Description

An abstract base class for slider widgets.

QwtAbstractSlider is a base class for slider widgets. It handles mouse events and updates the slider's value accordingly. Derived classes only have to implement the getValue() and getScrollMode() members, and should react to a valueChange(), which normally requires repainting.

## Member Enumeration Documentation

enum QwtAbstractSlider::ScrollMode

Scroll mode

See also:
  getScrollMode()

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

QwtAbstractSlider::QwtAbstractSlider | ( | Qt::Orientation | orientation,
|  | QWidget * | parent = `NULL`
| ) |  |

explicit

Constructor.

Parameters:

  orientation | Orientation
  parent | Parent widget

## Member Function Documentation

void QwtAbstractSlider::fitValue | ( | double | value | ) |

virtual slot

Set the slider's value to the nearest integer multiple of the step size.

Parameters:

  value | Value

See also:
  setValue(), incValue()

Reimplemented from QwtDoubleRange.

virtual void QwtAbstractSlider::getScrollMode | ( | const QPoint & | p,
|  | int & | scrollMode,
|  | int & | direction
| ) |  |

protected pure virtual

Determine what to do when the user presses a mouse button.

This function is abstract and has to be implemented by derived classes. It is called on a mousePress event. The derived class can determine what should happen next in dependence of the position where the mouse was pressed by returning scrolling mode and direction. QwtAbstractSlider knows the following modes:

QwtAbstractSlider::ScrNone
  Scrolling switched off. Don't change the value.
QwtAbstractSlider::ScrMouse
  Change the value while the user keeps the button pressed and moves the mouse.
QwtAbstractSlider::ScrTimer
  Automatic scrolling. Increment the value in the specified direction as long as the user keeps the button pressed.
QwtAbstractSlider::ScrPage
  Automatic scrolling. Same as ScrTimer, but increment by page size.

Parameters:

  p | point where the mouse was pressed

Return values:

  scrollMode | The scrolling mode
  direction | direction: 1, 0, or -1.

Implemented in QwtDial, QwtSlider, and QwtWheel.

virtual double QwtAbstractSlider::getValue | ( | const QPoint & | p | ) |

protected pure virtual

Determine the value corresponding to a specified poind.

This is an abstract virtual function which is called when the user presses or releases a mouse button or moves the mouse. It has to be implemented by the derived class.

Parameters:

  p | point

Implemented in QwtDial, QwtSlider, and QwtWheel.

void QwtAbstractSlider::incValue | ( | int | steps | ) |

virtual slot

Increment the value by a specified number of steps.

Parameters:

  steps | number of steps

See also:
  setValue()

Reimplemented from QwtDoubleRange.

bool QwtAbstractSlider::isReadOnly | ( |  | ) | const

In read only mode the slider can't be controlled by mouse or keyboard.

Returns:
  true if read only

See also:
  setReadOnly()

bool QwtAbstractSlider::isValid | ( |  | ) | const

inline

See also:
  QwtDblRange::isValid()

Reimplemented from QwtDoubleRange.

void QwtAbstractSlider::keyPressEvent | ( | QKeyEvent * | e | ) |

protected virtual

Handles key events

- Key_Down, KeyLeft
  Decrement by 1
- Key_Up, Key_Right
  Increment by 1

Parameters:

  e | Key event

See also:
  isReadOnly()

Reimplemented in QwtDial, and QwtCompass.

double QwtAbstractSlider::mass | ( |  | ) | const

virtual

Returns:
  mass

See also:
  setMass()

Reimplemented in QwtWheel.

void QwtAbstractSlider::mouseMoveEvent | ( | QMouseEvent * | e | ) |

protected virtual

Mouse Move Event handler

Parameters:

  e | Mouse event

void QwtAbstractSlider::mousePressEvent | ( | QMouseEvent * | e | ) |

protected virtual

Mouse press event handler

Parameters:

  e | Mouse event

void QwtAbstractSlider::mouseReleaseEvent | ( | QMouseEvent * | e | ) |

protected virtual

Mouse Release Event handler

Parameters:

  e | Mouse event

Qt::Orientation QwtAbstractSlider::orientation | ( |  | ) | const

Returns:
  Orientation

See also:
  setOrientation()

void QwtAbstractSlider::setMass | ( | double | val | ) |

virtual

Set the slider's mass for flywheel effect.

If the slider's mass is greater then 0, it will continue to move after the mouse button has been released. Its speed decreases with time at a rate depending on the slider's mass. A large mass means that it will continue to move for a long time.

Derived widgets may overload this function to make it public.

Parameters:

  val | New mass in kg

See also:
  mass()

Reimplemented in QwtWheel.

void QwtAbstractSlider::setOrientation | ( | Qt::Orientation | o | ) |

virtual

Set the orientation.

Parameters:

  o | Orientation. Allowed values are Qt::Horizontal and Qt::Vertical.

Reimplemented in QwtSlider, and QwtWheel.

void QwtAbstractSlider::setPosition | ( | const QPoint & | p | ) |

protected virtual

Move the slider to a specified point, adjust the value and emit signals if necessary.

void QwtAbstractSlider::setReadOnly | ( | bool | readOnly | ) |

virtual slot

En/Disable read only mode

In read only mode the slider can't be controlled by mouse or keyboard.

Parameters:

  readOnly | Enables in case of true

See also:
  isReadOnly()

void QwtAbstractSlider::setTracking | ( | bool | enable | ) |

Enables or disables tracking.

If tracking is enabled, the slider emits a valueChanged() signal whenever its value changes (the default behaviour). If tracking is disabled, the value changed() signal will only be emitted if:

- the user releases the mouse button and the value has changed or
- at the end of automatic scrolling.

Tracking is enabled by default.

Parameters:

  enable | `true` (enable) or `false` (disable) tracking.

void QwtAbstractSlider::setUpdateTime | ( | int | t | ) |

Specify the update interval for automatic scrolling.

Parameters:

  t | update interval in milliseconds

See also:
  getScrollMode()

void QwtAbstractSlider::setValid | ( | bool | valid | ) |

inline

Parameters:

  valid | true/false

See also:
  QwtDblRange::isValid()

Reimplemented from QwtDoubleRange.

void QwtAbstractSlider::setValue | ( | double | val | ) |

virtual slot

Move the slider to a specified value.

This function can be used to move the slider to a value which is not an integer multiple of the step size.

Parameters:

  val | new value

See also:
  fitValue()

Reimplemented from QwtDoubleRange.

void QwtAbstractSlider::sliderMoved | ( | double | value | ) |
