A base class for interactive color widgets. Widgets can either allow setting a single component of a color (e.g., 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 (e.g., black or white shades).

Detailed Description

A base class for interactive color widgets. Widgets can either allow setting a single component of a color (e.g., 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 (e.g., black or white shades).

Since: QGIS 2.5

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ QgsColorWidget()

QgsColorWidget::QgsColorWidget	(	QWidget *	parent = `nullptr`,
		ColorComponent	component = `Multiple`
	)

Construct a new color widget.

Parameters

parent	parent QWidget for the widget
component	color component the widget alters

Definition at line 48 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

Member Function Documentation

◆ alterColor()

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

protected

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

Parameters

color	color to alter
component	color component to alter
newValue	new value of color component. Values are automatically clipped to a valid range for the color component.

Definition at line 147 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

◆ color()

QColor QgsColorWidget::color ( ) const

Returns the current color for the widget.

Returns: current widget color

See also: setColor

Definition at line 249 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

◆ colorChanged

void QgsColorWidget::colorChanged ( const QColor & color )

signal

Emitted when the widget's color changes.

Parameters

color new widget color

◆ component()

ColorComponent QgsColorWidget::component ( ) const

inline

Returns the color component which the widget controls.

Returns: color component for widget

See also: setComponent

Definition at line 79 of file qgscolorwidgets.h.

◆ componentRange() [1/2]

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 110 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

◆ componentRange() [2/2]

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

protected

Returns the range of valid values a color component.

Returns: maximum value allowed for color component

Definition at line 115 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

◆ componentValue() [1/2]

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 56 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

◆ componentValue() [2/2]

int QgsColorWidget::componentValue ( const QgsColorWidget::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 (e.g., black or white shades)

Parameters

component color component to return

Returns: value of color component, or -1 if widget has an invalid color set

See also: hue

Definition at line 81 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

◆ createDragIcon()

QPixmap QgsColorWidget::createDragIcon ( const QColor & color )

static

Create an icon for dragging colors.

Parameters

color for icon

Definition at line 61 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

◆ dragEnterEvent()

void QgsColorWidget::dragEnterEvent ( QDragEnterEvent * e )

overrideprotected

Definition at line 193 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

◆ dropEvent()

overrideprotected

Definition at line 206 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

◆ hovered

void QgsColorWidget::hovered ( )

signal

Emitted when mouse hovers over widget.

Since: QGIS 2.14

◆ hue()

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 (e.g., if the saturation is zero).

Returns: explicitly set hue for widget

void QgsColorWidget::mouseMoveEvent ( QMouseEvent * e )

overrideprotected

Definition at line 230 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

		bool	emitSignals = `false`
	)

virtualslot

Sets the color for the widget.

Parameters

color	widget color
emitSignals	set to `true` to emit the colorChanged signal after setting color

See also: color

Definition at line 347 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

◆ setComponent

void QgsColorWidget::setComponent ( QgsColorWidget::ColorComponent component )

◆ setComponentValue

void QgsColorWidget::setComponentValue ( int value )

virtualslot

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

Parameters

value value 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 265 of file qgscolorwidgets.cpp.

◆ transparentBackground()

const QPixmap & QgsColorWidget::transparentBackground ( )

Member Data Documentation

◆ mComponent

ColorComponent QgsColorWidget::mComponent

protected

Definition at line 142 of file qgscolorwidgets.h.

◆ mCurrentColor

QColor QgsColorWidget::mCurrentColor

protected

Definition at line 140 of file qgscolorwidgets.h.

◆ mExplicitHue

int QgsColorWidget::mExplicitHue = 0

protected

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

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