For advanced clipboard usage read <a href="dnd.html">the drag-and-drop documentation</a>. <p> There is a single TQClipboard object in an application, and you can access it using <a href="ntqapplication.html#clipboard">TQApplication::clipboard</a>(). <p> Example: <pre> TQClipboard *cb = TQApplication::<a href="ntqapplication.html#clipboard">clipboard</a>(); // Copy text from the clipboard (paste) <a href="ntqstring.html">TQString</a> text = cb-><a href="#text">text</a>(TQClipboard::<a href="#Mode-enum">Clipboard</a>); if ( !text.<a href="ntqstring.html#isNull">isNull</a>() ) <a href="ntqapplication.html#qDebug">tqDebug</a>( "The clipboard contains: " + text ); // Copy text into the clipboard cb-><a href="#setText">setText</a>( "This text can be pasted by other programs", TQClipboard::<a href="#Mode-enum">Clipboard</a> ); </pre> <p> TQClipboard features some convenience functions to access common data types: <a href="#setText">setText</a>() allows the exchange of Unicode text and <a href="#setPixmap">setPixmap</a>() and <a href="#setImage">setImage</a>() allows the exchange of TQPixmaps and TQImages between applications. The <a href="#setData">setData</a>() function is the ultimate in flexibility: it allows you to add any <a href="qmimesource.html">TQMimeSource</a> into the clipboard. There are corresponding getters for each of these, e.g. <a href="#text">text</a>(), <a href="#image">image</a>() and <a href="#pixmap">pixmap</a>(). <p> You can clear the clipboard by calling <a href="#clear">clear</a>(). <p> <h3> Platform Specific Information </h3> <a name="1"></a><p> <h4> X11 </h4> <a name="1-1"></a><p> <ul> <p> <li> The X11 Window System has the concept of a separate selection and clipboard. When text is selected, it is immediately available as the global mouse selection. The global mouse selection may later be copied to the clipboard. By convention, the middle mouse button is used to paste the global mouse selection. <p> <li> X11 also has the concept of ownership; if you change the selection within a window, X11 will only notify the owner and the previous owner of the change, i.e. it will not notify all applications that the selection or clipboard data changed. <p> <li> Lastly, the X11 clipboard is event driven, i.e. the clipboard will not function properly if the event loop is not running. Similarly, it is recommended that the contents of the clipboard are stored or retrieved in direct response to user-input events, e.g. mouse button or key presses and releases. You should not store or retrieve the clipboard contents in response to timer or non-user-input events. <p> </ul> <p> <h4> Windows </h4> <a name="1-1-1"></a><p> <ul> <p> <li> Microsoft Windows does not support the global mouse selection; it only supports the global clipboard, e.g. Windows only adds text to the clipboard when an explicit copy or cut is made. <p> <li> Windows does not have the concept of ownership; the clipboard is a fully global resource so all applications are notified of changes. <p> </ul> <p> See the multiclip example in the <em>TQt Designer</em> examples directory for an example of a multiplatform clipboard application that also demonstrates selection handling. <p>See also <a href="environment.html">Environment Classes</a> and <a href="io.html">Input/Output and Networking</a>. <hr><h2>Member Type Documentation</h2> <h3 class=fn><a name="Mode-enum"></a>TQClipboard::Mode</h3> <!-- index clipboard mode --> <p> This enum type is used to control which part of the system clipboard is used by <a href="#data">TQClipboard::data</a>(), <a href="#setData">TQClipboard::setData</a>() and related functions. <ul> <li><tt>TQClipboard::Clipboard</tt> - indicates that data should be stored and retrieved from the global clipboard. <li><tt>TQClipboard::Selection</tt> - indicates that data should be stored and retrieved from the global mouse selection. </ul><p> <em>Note</em>: Support for <a href="#Mode-enum">Selection</a> is provided only on systems with a global mouse selection (e.g. X11). <p> <p>See also <a href="#supportsSelection">TQClipboard::supportsSelection</a>(). <hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2> <h3 class=fn>void <a name="clear"></a>TQClipboard::clear ( <a href="ntqclipboard.html#Mode-enum">Mode</a> mode ) </h3> Clear the clipboard contents. <p> The <em>mode</em> argument is used to control which part of the system clipboard is used.
