+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The QPalette class contains color groups for each widget state.
+.PP
+A palette consists of three color groups: \fIactive\fR, \fIdisabled\fR, and \fIinactive\fR. All widgets contain a palette, and all widgets in Qt use their palette to draw themselves. This makes the user interface easily configurable and easier to keep consistent.
+.PP
+If you create a new widget we strongly recommend that you use the colors in the palette rather than hard-coding specific colors.
+.PP
+The color groups:
+.TP
+The active() group is used for the window that has keyboard focus.
+.TP
+The inactive() group is used for other windows.
+.TP
+The disabled() group is used for widgets (not windows) that are disabled for some reason.
+.PP
+Both active and inactive windows can contain disabled widgets. (Disabled widgets are often called \fIinaccessible\fR or \fIgrayed out\fR.)
+.PP
+In Motif style, active() and inactive() look the same. In Windows 2000 style and Macintosh Platinum style, the two styles look slightly different.
+.PP
+There are setActive(), setInactive(), and setDisabled() functions to modify the palette. (Qt also supports a normal() group; this is an obsolete alias for active(), supported for backwards compatibility.)
+.PP
+Colors and brushes can be set for particular roles in any of a palette's color groups with setColor() and setBrush().
+.PP
+You can copy a palette using the copy constructor and test to see if two palettes are \fIidentical\fR using isCopyOf().
+.PP
+See also QApplication::setPalette(), QWidget::palette, QColorGroup, QColor, Widget Appearance and Style, Graphics Classes, Image Processing Classes, and Implicitly and Explicitly Shared Classes.

+.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
+.SH "QPalette::QPalette ()"
+Constructs a palette that consists of color groups with only black colors.
+.SH "QPalette::QPalette ( const QColor & button )"
+\fBThis function is obsolete.\fR It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
+.PP
+Constructs a palette from the \fIbutton\fR color. The other colors are automatically calculated, based on this color. Background will be the button color as well.
+.SH "QPalette::QPalette ( const QColor & button, const QColor & background )"
+Constructs a palette from a \fIbutton\fR color and a \fIbackground\fR. The other colors are automatically calculated, based on these colors.
+.SH "QPalette::QPalette ( const QColorGroup & active, const QColorGroup & disabled, const QColorGroup & inactive )"
+Constructs a palette that consists of the three color groups \fIactive\fR, \fIdisabled\fR and \fIinactive\fR. See the Detailed Description for definitions of the color groups and QColorGroup::ColorRole for definitions of each color role in the three groups.
+.PP
+See also QColorGroup and QColorGroup::ColorRole.
+.SH "QPalette::QPalette ( const QPalette & p )"
+Constructs a copy of \fIp\fR.
+.PP
+This constructor is fast (it uses copy-on-write).
+.SH "QPalette::~QPalette ()"
+Destroys the palette.
+.SH "const QColorGroup & QPalette::active () const"
+Returns the active color group of this palette.
+.PP
+See also QColorGroup, setActive(), inactive(), and disabled().
+.PP
+Examples:
+.)l themes/metal.cpp and themes/wood.cpp.
+.SH "const QBrush & QPalette::brush ( ColorGroup gr, QColorGroup::ColorRole r ) const"
+Returns the brush in color group \fIgr\fR, used for color role \fIr\fR.
+.PP
+See also color(), setBrush(), and QColorGroup::ColorRole.
+.SH "const QColor & QPalette::color ( ColorGroup gr, QColorGroup::ColorRole r ) const"
+Returns the color in color group \fIgr\fR, used for color role \fIr\fR.
+.PP
+See also brush(), setColor(), and QColorGroup::ColorRole.
+.SH "QPalette QPalette::copy () const"
+Returns a deep copy of this palette.
+.PP
+\fBWarning:\fR This is slower than the copy constructor and assignment operator and offers no benefits.
+.SH "const QColorGroup & QPalette::disabled () const"
+Returns the disabled color group of this palette.
+.PP
+See also QColorGroup, setDisabled(), active(), and inactive().
+.PP
+Examples:
+.)l themes/metal.cpp and themes/wood.cpp.
+.SH "const QColorGroup & QPalette::inactive () const"
+Returns the inactive color group of this palette.
+.PP
+See also QColorGroup, setInactive(), active(), and disabled().
+.SH "bool QPalette::isCopyOf ( const QPalette & p )"
+Returns TRUE if this palette and \fIp\fR are copies of each other, i.e. one of them was created as a copy of the other and neither was subsequently modified; otherwise returns FALSE. This is much stricter than equality.
+.PP
+See also operator=() and operator==().
+.SH "const QColorGroup & QPalette::normal () const"
+\fBThis function is obsolete.\fR It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
+.PP
+Returns the active color group. Use active() instead.
+.PP
+See also setActive() and active().
+.SH "bool QPalette::operator!= ( const QPalette & p ) const"
+Returns TRUE (slowly) if this palette is different from \fIp\fR; otherwise returns FALSE (usually quickly).
+.SH "QPalette & QPalette::operator= ( const QPalette & p )"
+Assigns \fIp\fR to this palette and returns a reference to this palette.
+.PP
+This is fast (it uses copy-on-write).
+.PP
+See also copy().
+.SH "bool QPalette::operator== ( const QPalette & p ) const"
+Returns TRUE (usually quickly) if this palette is equal to \fIp\fR; otherwise returns FALSE (slowly).
+.SH "int QPalette::serialNumber () const"
+Returns a number that uniquely identifies this QPalette object. The serial number is intended for caching. Its value may not be used for anything other than equality testing.
+.PP
+Note that QPalette uses copy-on-write, and the serial number changes during the lazy copy operation (detach()), not during a shallow copy (copy constructor or assignment).
+.PP
+See also QPixmap, QPixmapCache, and QCache.
+.SH "void QPalette::setActive ( const QColorGroup & g )"
+Sets the Active color group to \fIg\fR.
+.PP
+See also active(), setDisabled(), setInactive(), and QColorGroup.
+.SH "void QPalette::setBrush ( ColorGroup gr, QColorGroup::ColorRole r, const QBrush & b )"
+Sets the brush in color group \fIgr\fR, used for color role \fIr\fR, to \fIb\fR.
+.PP
+See also brush(), setColor(), and QColorGroup::ColorRole.
+.SH "void QPalette::setBrush ( QColorGroup::ColorRole r, const QBrush & b )"
+This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
+.PP
+Sets the brush in for color role \fIr\fR in all three color groups to \fIb\fR.
+.PP
+See also brush(), setColor(), QColorGroup::ColorRole, active(), inactive(), and disabled().
+.SH "void QPalette::setColor ( ColorGroup gr, QColorGroup::ColorRole r, const QColor & c )"
+Sets the brush in color group \fIgr\fR, used for color role \fIr\fR, to the solid color \fIc\fR.
+.PP
+See also setBrush(), color(), and QColorGroup::ColorRole.
+.PP
+Example: themes/themes.cpp.
+.SH "void QPalette::setColor ( QColorGroup::ColorRole r, const QColor & c )"
+This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
+.PP
+Sets the brush color used for color role \fIr\fR to color \fIc\fR in all three color groups.
+.PP
+See also color(), setBrush(), and QColorGroup::ColorRole.
+.SH "void QPalette::setDisabled ( const QColorGroup & g )"
+Sets the Disabled color group to \fIg\fR.
+.PP
+See also disabled(), setActive(), and setInactive().
+.SH "void QPalette::setInactive ( const QColorGroup & g )"
+Sets the Inactive color group to \fIg\fR.
+.PP
+See also active(), setDisabled(), setActive(), and QColorGroup.
+.SH "void QPalette::setNormal ( const QColorGroup & cg )"
+\fBThis function is obsolete.\fR It is provided to keep old source working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.
+.PP
+Sets the active color group to \fIcg\fR. Use setActive() instead.

+See also setActive() and active().
+.SH RELATED FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION
