Inherits QWidget.
The QRubberBand class provides a rectangle or line that can indicate a selection or a boundary.
A rubber band is often used to show a new bounding area (as in a QSplitter or a QDockWidget that is undocking). Historically this has been implemented using a QPainter and XOR, but this approach doesn't always work properly since rendering can happen in the window below the rubber band, but before the rubber band has been "erased".
You can create a QRubberBand whenever you need to render a rubber band around a given area (or to represent a single line), then call setGeometry(), move() or resize() to position and size it. Positions are specified in global coordinates, even if the rubber band has a parent.
Like other QWidgets, you must also call show() to make it visible. Hiding or destroying the widget will make the rubber band disappear. The rubber band can be a Rectangle or a Line (vertical or horizontal), depending on the shape() it was given when constructed.
This enum specifies what shape a QRubberBand should have. This is a drawing hint that is passed down to the style system, and can be interpreted by each QStyle.
Constant | Value | Description |
---|---|---|
QRubberBand::Line | 0 | A QRubberBand can represent a vertical or horizontal line. Geometry is still given in rect() and the line will fill the given geometry on most styles. |
QRubberBand::Rectangle | 1 | A QRubberBand can represent a rectangle. Some styles will interpret this as a filled (often semi-transparent) rectangle, or a rectangular outline. |
Constructs a rubber band of shape s, with parent p.
By default a rectangular QRubberBand (s is Rectangle) will be set to auto mask, so that the boundary of the rectangle is all that is visible. Some styles (for example native Mac OS X) will change this and call QWidget::setWindowOpacity() to make the window only partially opaque.
Destructor.
Moves the rubberband to point (x, y).
See also resize().
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
Moves the rubberband to point p.
See also resize().
Resizes the rubberband so that its width is width, and its height is height.
See also move().
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
Resizes the rubberband so that its new size is size.
See also move().
Changes the rubberband's geometry to the geometry of the rectangle rect. rect is relative of (and bounded by) by the parent geometry.
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
Changes the rubberband's geometry to have a top-left corner of (x, y), a width of w, and a height of h.
Returns the shape of this rubber band. The shape can only be set upon construction.
