Detailed Description

QStyleOptionFrame is used for drawing several built-in Qt widgets, including QFrame, QGroupBox, QLineEdit, and QMenu.

For performance reasons, there are few member functions and the access to the member variables is direct (i.e., using the . or -> operator). This makes the structures straightforward to use and emphasizes that these are simply parameters used by the style functions.

An instance of the QStyleOptionFrame class has type SO_Frame and version 3.

The type is used internally by QStyleOption, its subclasses, and qstyleoption_cast() to determine the type of style option. In general you do not need to worry about this unless you want to create your own QStyleOption subclass and your own styles. The version is used by QStyleOption subclasses to implement extensions without breaking compatibility. If you use qstyleoption_cast(), you normally do not need to check it.

For an example demonstrating how style options can be used, see the Styles example.

Member Type Documentation

enum QStyleOptionFrame::FrameFeatureflags QStyleOptionFrame::FrameFeatures

This enum describes the different types of features a frame can have.

Constant	Value	Description
QStyleOptionFrame::None	0x00	Indicates a normal frame.
QStyleOptionFrame::Flat	0x01	Indicates a flat frame.
QStyleOptionFrame::Rounded	0x02	Indicates a rounded frame.

The FrameFeatures type is a typedef for QFlags<FrameFeature>. It stores an OR combination of FrameFeature values.

enum QStyleOptionFrame::StyleOptionType

This enum is used to hold information about the type of the style option, and is defined for each QStyleOption subclass.

Constant	Value	Description
QStyleOptionFrame::Type	SO_Frame	The type of style option provided (SO_Frame for this class).

The type is used internally by QStyleOption, its subclasses, and qstyleoption_cast() to determine the type of style option. In general you do not need to worry about this unless you want to create your own QStyleOption subclass and your own styles.

See also StyleOptionVersion.

enum QStyleOptionFrame::StyleOptionVersion

This enum is used to hold information about the version of the style option, and is defined for each QStyleOption subclass.

Constant	Value	Description
QStyleOptionFrame::Version	1	3

The version is used by QStyleOption subclasses to implement extensions without breaking compatibility. If you use qstyleoption_cast(), you normally do not need to check it.

Member Function Documentation

QStyleOptionFrame::QStyleOptionFrame(const QStyleOptionFrame &other)

Constructs a copy of the other style option.

QStyleOptionFrame::QStyleOptionFrame()

Constructs a QStyleOptionFrame, initializing the members variables to their default values.
