Member Type Documentation

enum QSplitter::ResizeMode

This enum describes the different resizing behaviors child widgets can have:

Constant	Value	Description
QSplitter::Auto	3	The widget will be resized according to the stretch factors set in its sizePolicy().
QSplitter::Stretch	0	The widget will be resized when the splitter itself is resized.
QSplitter::KeepSize	1	QSplitter will try to keep the widget's size unchanged.
QSplitter::FollowSizeHint	2	QSplitter will resize the widget when the widget's size hint changes.

Use setStretchFactor() instead.

Member Function Documentation

QSplitter::QSplitter ( QWidget * parent, const char * name )

Use one of the constructors that doesn't take the name argument and then use setObjectName() instead.

QSplitter::QSplitter ( Qt::Orientation orientation, QWidget * parent, const char * name )

Use one of the constructors that don't take the name argument and then use setObjectName() instead.

int QSplitter::margin () const

Returns the width of the margin around the contents of the widget.

Use QWidget::getContentsMargins() instead.

See also setMargin() and QWidget::getContentsMargins().

void QSplitter::moveToFirst ( QWidget * widget )

Use insertWidget(0, widget) instead.

void QSplitter::moveToLast ( QWidget * widget )

Use addWidget(widget) instead.

void QSplitter::setCollapsible ( QWidget * widget, bool collapsible )

Use setCollapsible(indexOf(widget, collapsible)) instead.

void QSplitter::setMargin ( int margin )

Sets the width of the margin around the contents of the widget to margin.

Use QWidget::setContentsMargins() instead.

See also margin() and QWidget::setContentsMargins().

void QSplitter::setResizeMode ( QWidget * widget, ResizeMode mode )

Use setStretchFactor() instead.

For example, if you have code like

 splitter->setResizeMode(firstChild, QSplitter::KeepSize);
 splitter->setResizeMode(secondChild, QSplitter::Stretch);

you can rewrite it as

 splitter->setStretchFactor(splitter->indexOf(firstChild), 0);
 splitter->setStretchFactor(splitter->indexOf(secondChild), 1);
