Detailed Description

A base class for interactive color widgets.

Widgets can either allow setting a single component of a color (eg the red or green components), or an entire color. The QgsColorWidget also keeps track of any explicitly set hue for the color, so that this information is not lost when the widget is set to a color with an ambiguous hue (eg black or white shades).

Note
Added in version 2.5

Definition at line 35 of file qgscolorwidgets.h.

Member Function Documentation

void QgsColorWidget::alterColor ( QColor &  color,
const QgsColorWidget::ColorComponent  component,
const int  newValue 
) const
protected

Alters a color by modifiying the value of a specific color component.

Parameters
colorcolor to alter
componentcolor component to alter
newValuenew value of color component. Values are automatically clipped to a valid range for the color component.

Definition at line 141 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

QColor QgsColorWidget::color ( void  ) const

Returns the current color for the widget.

Returns
current widget color
See Also
setColor

Definition at line 224 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

void QgsColorWidget::colorChanged ( const QColor &  color)
signal

Emitted when the widget's color changes.

Parameters
colornew widget color
ColorComponent QgsColorWidget::component ( ) const
inline

Returns the color component which the widget controls.

Returns
color component for widget
See Also
setComponent

Definition at line 73 of file qgscolorwidgets.h.

int QgsColorWidget::componentRange ( ) const
protected

Returns the range of valid values for the color widget's component.

Returns
maximum value allowed for color component, or -1 if widget has multiple components

Definition at line 104 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

int QgsColorWidget::componentRange ( const ColorComponent  component) const
protected

Returns the range of valid values a color component.

Returns
maximum value allowed for color component

Definition at line 109 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

int QgsColorWidget::componentValue ( ) const

Returns the current value of the widget's color component.

Returns
value of color component, or -1 if widget has multiple components or an invalid color set
See Also
setComponentValue
component

Definition at line 51 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

int QgsColorWidget::componentValue ( const ColorComponent  component) const
protected

Returns the value of a component of the widget's current color.

This method correctly handles hue values when the color has an ambiguous hue (eg black or white shades)

Parameters
componentcolor component to return
Returns
value of color component, or -1 if widget has an invalid color set
See Also
hue

Definition at line 75 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

QPixmap QgsColorWidget::createDragIcon ( const QColor &  color)
static

Create an icon for dragging colors.

Parameters
colorfor icon

void QgsColorWidget::dropEvent ( QDropEvent *  e)
overrideprotected

Definition at line 200 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

int QgsColorWidget::hue ( ) const
protected

Returns the hue for the widget.

This may differ from the hue for the QColor returned by color(), as QColor returns a hue of -1 if the color's hue is ambiguous (eg, if the saturation is zero).

Returns
explicitly set hue for widget

Definition at line 129 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

void QgsColorWidget::setColor ( const QColor &  color,
const bool  emitSignals = false 
)
virtualslot

Sets the color for the widget.

Parameters
colorwidget color
emitSignalsset to true to emit the colorChanged signal after setting color

void QgsColorWidget::setComponent ( const ColorComponent  component)
virtualslot

Sets the color component which the widget controls.

Parameters
componentcolor component for widget
See Also

Reimplemented in QgsColorSliderWidget, and QgsColorBox.

Definition at line 229 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

void QgsColorWidget::setComponentValue ( const int  value)
virtualslot

Alters the widget's color by setting the value for the widget's color component.

Parameters
valuevalue for widget's color component. This value is automatically clipped to the range of valid values for the color component.
See Also
componentValue
setComponent
Note
this method has no effect if the widget is set to the QgsColorWidget::Multiple component

Reimplemented in QgsColorSliderWidget.

Definition at line 240 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

const QPixmap & QgsColorWidget::transparentBackground ( )
staticprotected

Generates a checkboard pattern pixmap for use as a background to transparent colors.

Returns
checkerboard pixmap

QColor QgsColorWidget::mCurrentColor
protected

Definition at line 122 of file qgscolorwidgets.h.

int QgsColorWidget::mExplicitHue
protected

QColor wipes the hue information when it is ambiguous (eg, for saturation = 0).

So the hue is stored in mExplicit hue to keep it around, as it is useful when modifying colors
