The accelerator handles all keyboard +activity for all the children of one top-level widget, so it is +not affected by the <a href="focus.html#keyboard-focus">keyboard focus</a>. +<p> In most cases, you will not need to use this class directly. Use +the <a href="qaction.html">TQAction</a> class to create actions with accelerators that can be +used in both menus and toolbars. If you're only interested in +menus use <a href="qmenudata.html#insertItem">TQMenuData::insertItem</a>() or <a href="qmenudata.html#setAccel">TQMenuData::setAccel</a>() to make +accelerators for operations that are also available on menus. Many +widgets automatically generate accelerators, such as <a href="qbutton.html">TQButton</a>, +<a href="qgroupbox.html">TQGroupBox</a>, <a href="qlabel.html">TQLabel</a> (with <a href="qlabel.html#setBuddy">TQLabel::setBuddy</a>()), <a href="qmenubar.html">TQMenuBar</a> and <a href="qtabbar.html">TQTabBar</a>. +Example: +<pre> + <a href="qpushbutton.html">TQPushButton</a> p( "&Exit", parent ); // automatic shortcut ALT+Key_E + <a href="qpopupmenu.html">TQPopupMenu</a> *fileMenu = new fileMenu( parent ); + fileMenu-><a href="qmenudata.html#insertItem">insertItem</a>( "Undo", parent, SLOT(undo()), CTRL+Key_Z ); + </pre> + +<p> A TQAccel contains a list of accelerator items that can be +manipulated using <a href="#insertItem">insertItem</a>(), <a href="#removeItem">removeItem</a>(), <a href="#clear">clear</a>(), <a href="#key">key</a>() and +<a href="#findKey">findKey</a>(). +<p> Each accelerator item consists of an identifier and a <a href="qkeysequence.html">TQKeySequence</a>. A single key sequence consists of a keyboard code +combined with modifiers (<a href="qt.html#Modifier-enum">SHIFT</a>, <a href="qt.html#Modifier-enum">CTRL</a>, <a href="qt.html#Modifier-enum">ALT</a> or <a href="qt.html#Modifier-enum">UNICODE_ACCEL</a>). For example, <tt>CTRL + Key_P</tt> could be a shortcut +for printing a document. The key codes are listed in <a href="qnamespace-h.html">qnamespace.h</a>. As an alternative, use <a href="qt.html#Modifier-enum">UNICODE_ACCEL</a> with the +unicode code point of the character. For example, <tt>UNICODE_ACCEL + 'A'</tt> gives the same accelerator as <a href="qt.html#Key-enum">Key_A</a>. +<p> When an accelerator key is pressed, the accelerator sends out the +signal <a href="#activated">activated</a>() with a number that identifies this particular +accelerator item. Accelerator items can also be individually +connected, so that two different keys will activate two different +slots (see <a href="#connectItem">connectItem</a>() and <a href="#disconnectItem">disconnectItem</a>()). +<p> The activated() signal is <em>not</em> emitted when two or more +accelerators match the same key. Instead, the first matching +accelerator sends out the <a href="#activatedAmbiguously">activatedAmbiguously</a>() signal. By +pressing the key multiple times, users can navigate between all +matching accelerators. Some standard controls like <a href="qpushbutton.html">TQPushButton</a> and +<a href="qcheckbox.html">TQCheckBox</a> connect the activatedAmbiguously() signal to the +harmless setFocus() slot, whereas activated() is connected to a +slot invoking the button's action. Most controls, like <a href="qlabel.html">TQLabel</a> and +<a href="qtabbar.html">TQTabBar</a>, treat activated() and activatedAmbiguously() as +equivalent. +<p> Use <a href="#setEnabled">setEnabled</a>() to enable or disable all the items in an +accelerator, or <a href="#setItemEnabled">setItemEnabled</a>() to enable or disable individual +items. An item is active only when both the TQAccel and the item +itself are enabled. +<p> The function <a href="#setWhatsThis">setWhatsThis</a>() specifies a help text that appears +when the user presses an accelerator key in What's This mode. +<p> The accelerator will be deleted when <em>parent</em> is deleted, +and will consume relevant key events until then. +<p> Please note that the accelerator +<pre> + accelerator->insertItem( TQKeySequence("M") ); + </pre> + +can be triggered with both the 'M' key, and with Shift+M, +unless a second accelerator is defined for the Shift+M +combination. +<p> Example: +<pre> + TQAccel *a = new TQAccel( myWindow ); // create accels for myWindow + a-><a href="#connectItem">connectItem</a>( a-><a href="#insertItem">insertItem</a>(Key_P+CTRL), // adds Ctrl+P accelerator + myWindow, // connected to myWindow's + SLOT(printDoc()) ); // printDoc() slot + </pre> + +<p> <p>See also <a href="qkeyevent.html">TQKeyEvent</a>, <a href="qwidget.html#keyPressEvent">TQWidget::keyPressEvent</a>(), <a href="qmenudata.html#setAccel">TQMenuData::setAccel</a>(), <a href="qbutton.html#accel-prop">TQButton::accel</a>, <a href="qlabel.html#setBuddy">TQLabel::setBuddy</a>(), <a href="qkeysequence.html">TQKeySequence</a>, <a href="guibooks.html#fowler">GUI Design Handbook: Keyboard Shortcuts</a>, and <a href="misc.html">Miscellaneous Classes</a>. + +<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2> +<h3 class=fn><a name="TQAccel"></a>TQAccel::TQAccel ( <a href="qwidget.html">TQWidget</a> * parent, const char * name = 0 ) +</h3> +Constructs a TQAccel object called <em>name</em>, with parent <em>parent</em>. +The accelerator operates on <em>parent</em>. + +<h3 class=fn><a name="TQAccel-2"></a>TQAccel::TQAccel ( <a href="qwidget.html">TQWidget</a> * watch, <a href="qobject.html">TQObject</a> * parent, const char * name = 0 ) +</h3> +Constructs a TQAccel object called <em>name</em>, that operates on <em>watch</em>, and is a child of <em>parent</em>. +<p> This constructor is not needed for normal application programming. + +<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQAccel"></a>TQAccel::~TQAccel () +</h3> +Destroys the accelerator object and frees all allocated resources. + +<h3 class=fn>void <a name="activated"></a>TQAccel::activated ( int id )<tt> [signal]</tt> +</h3> + +<p> This signal is emitted when an accelerator key is pressed. <em>id</em> +is a number that identifies this particular accelerator item. +<p> <p>See also <a href="#activatedAmbiguously">activatedAmbiguously</a>(). + +<h3 class=fn>void <a name="activatedAmbiguously"></a>TQAccel::activatedAmbiguously ( int id )<tt> [signal]</tt> +</h3> + +<p> This signal is emitted when an accelerator key is pressed. <em>id</em> +is a number that identifies this particular accelerator item. +<p> <p>See also <a href="#activated">activated</a>(). + +<h3 class=fn>void <a name="clear"></a>TQAccel::clear () +</h3> +Removes all accelerator items. + +<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="connectItem"></a>TQAccel::connectItem ( int id, const <a href="qobject.html">TQObject</a> * receiver, const char * member ) +</h3> +Connects the accelerator item <em>id</em> to the slot <em>member</em> of <em>receiver</em>. +<p> <pre> + a->connectItem( 201, mainView, SLOT(tquit()) ); + </pre> + +<p> Of course, you can also send a signal as <em>member</em>. +<p> Normally accelerators are connected to slots which then receive +the <tt>activated(int id)</tt> signal with the id of the accelerator +item that was activated.
