Detailed Description

The QHBox widget provides horizontal geometry management for its child widgets.

All the horizontal box's child widgets will be placed alongside each other and sized according to their sizeHint()s.

Use setMargin() to add space around the edge, and use setSpacing() to add space between the widgets. Use setStretchFactor() if you want the widgets to be different sizes in proportion to one another.

Member Function Documentation

QHBox::QHBox ( QWidget*parent = 0, constchar*name = 0, WFlagsf = 0 )

Constructs an hbox widget with parent parent and name name. The parent, name and widget flags, f, are passed to the QFrame constructor.

QHBox::QHBox ( boolhorizontal, QWidget*parent = 0, constchar*name = 0, WFlagsf = 0 ) [protected]

Constructs a horizontal hbox if horizontal is TRUE, otherwise constructs a vertical hbox (also known as a vbox).

This constructor is provided for the QVBox class. You should never need to use it directly.

The parent, name and widget flags, f, are passed to the QFrame constructor.

void QHBox::setSpacing ( intspace )

Sets the spacing between the child widgets to space.

Examples: i18n/mywidget.cpp, listboxcombo/listboxcombo.cpp, network/ftpclient/ftpmainwindow.cpp, qdir/qdir.cpp, tabdialog/tabdialog.cpp, wizard/wizard.cpp and xform/xform.cpp.

bool QHBox::setStretchFactor ( QWidget*w, intstretch )

Sets the stretch factor of widget w to stretch.
