The meaning of line is configurable. In editors and list boxes it means one line of text; in an image viewer it might mean 20 pixels. +.IP +.TP +The \fIslider\fR is the handle that indicates the current value of the scroll bar, which the user can drag to change the value. This part of the scroll bar is sometimes called the "thumb". +.IP +.TP +The \fIpage-up/page-down\fR control is the area on which the slider slides (the scroll bar's background). Clicking here moves the scroll bar towards the click. The meaning of "page" is also configurable: in editors and list boxes it means as many lines as there is space for in the widget. +.IP +.PP +QScrollBar has very few of its own functions; it mostly relies on QRangeControl. The most useful functions are setValue() to set the scroll bar directly to some value; addPage(), addLine(), subtractPage(), and subtractLine() to simulate the effects of clicking (useful for accelerator keys); setSteps() to define the values of pageStep() and lineStep(); and setRange() to set the minValue() and maxValue() of the scroll bar. QScrollBar has a convenience constructor with which you can set most of these properties. +.PP +Some GUI styles (for example, the Windows and Motif styles provided with Qt), also use the pageStep() value to calculate the size of the slider. +.PP +In addition to the access functions from QRangeControl, QScrollBar provides a comprehensive set of signals: <center>.nf +.TS +l - l. Signal Emitted when valueChanged() the scroll bar's value has changed. The tracking() determines whether this signal is emitted during user interaction. sliderPressed() the user starts to drag the slider. sliderMoved() the user drags the slider. sliderReleased() the user releases the slider. nextLine() the scroll bar has moved one line down or right. Line is defined in QRangeControl. prevLine() the scroll bar has moved one line up or left. nextPage() the scroll bar has moved one page down or right. prevPage() +.TE +.fi +</center> +.PP +QScrollBar only provides integer ranges. Note that although QScrollBar handles very large numbers, scroll bars on current screens cannot usefully control ranges above about 100,000 pixels. Beyond that, it becomes difficult for the user to control the scroll bar using either the keyboard or the mouse. +.PP +A scroll bar can be controlled by the keyboard, but it has a default focusPolicy() of NoFocus. Use setFocusPolicy() to enable keyboard focus. See keyPressEvent() for a list of key bindings. +.PP +If you need to add scroll bars to an interface, consider using the QScrollView class, which encapsulates the common uses for scroll bars. +.PP +.ce 1 +.B "[Image Omitted]" +.PP + +.ce 1 +.B "[Image Omitted]" +.PP +See also QSlider, QSpinBox, QScrollView, GUI Design Handbook: Scroll Bar, and Basic Widgets. +.SH MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION +.SH "QScrollBar::QScrollBar ( QWidget * parent, const char * name = 0 )" +Constructs a vertical scroll bar. +.PP +The \fIparent\fR and \fIname\fR arguments are sent on to the QWidget constructor. +.PP +The minValue defaults to 0, the maxValue to 99, with a lineStep size of 1 and a pageStep size of 10, and an initial value of 0. +.SH "QScrollBar::QScrollBar ( Orientation orientation, QWidget * parent, const char * name = 0 )" +Constructs a scroll bar. +.PP +The \fIorientation\fR must be Qt::Vertical or Qt::Horizontal. +.PP +The \fIparent\fR and \fIname\fR arguments are sent on to the QWidget constructor. +.PP +The minValue defaults to 0, the maxValue to 99, with a lineStep size of 1 and a pageStep size of 10, and an initial value of 0. +.SH "QScrollBar::QScrollBar ( int minValue, int maxValue, int lineStep, int pageStep, int value, Orientation orientation, QWidget * parent, const char * name = 0 )" +Constructs a scroll bar whose value can never be smaller than \fIminValue\fR or greater than \fImaxValue\fR, whose line step size is \fIlineStep\fR and page step size is \fIpageStep\fR and whose value is initially \fIvalue\fR (which is guaranteed to be in range using bound()). +.PP +If \fIorientation\fR is Vertical the scroll bar is vertical and if it is Horizontal the scroll bar is horizontal. +.PP +The \fIparent\fR and \fIname\fR arguments are sent on to the QWidget constructor. +.SH "QScrollBar::~QScrollBar ()" +Destructor. +.SH "bool QScrollBar::draggingSlider () const" +Returns TRUE if the user has clicked the mouse on the slider and is currently dragging it; otherwise returns FALSE.
