\title Fridge Magnets Example
|
|
||||||
\brief The Fridge Magnets example illustrates how to move around several types of
|
|
||||||
MIME-encoded data with drag and drop.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The Fridge Magnets example shows how to supply more than one type
|
|
||||||
of MIME-encoded data with a drag and drop operation.
|
|
||||||

|
||||||
\image fridgemagnets-example.png
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
With this application the user can play around with a collection
|
|
||||||
of fridge magnets, using drag and drop to form new sentences from
|
|
||||||
the words on the magnets. The example consists of two classes:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\list
|
|
||||||
\li \c DragLabel is a custom widget representing one
|
|
||||||
single fridge magnet.
|
|
||||||
\li \c DragWidget provides the main application window.
|
|
||||||
\endlist
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We will first take a look at the \c DragLabel class, then we will
|
|
||||||
examine the \c DragWidget class.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\section1 DragLabel Class Definition
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Each fridge magnet is represented by an instance of the \c
|
|
||||||
DragLabel class:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/draglabel.h 0
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Each instance of this QLabel subclass will be used to display an
|
|
||||||
pixmap generated from a text string. Since we cannot store both
|
|
||||||
text and a pixmap in a standard label, we declare a private variable
|
|
||||||
to hold the original text, and we define an additional member
|
|
||||||
function to allow it to be accessed.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\section1 DragLabel Class Implementation
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In the \c DragLabel constructor, we first create a QImage object
|
|
||||||
on which we will draw the fridge magnet's text and frame:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/draglabel.cpp 0
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Its size depends on the current font size, and its format is
|
|
||||||
QImage::Format_ARGB32_Premultiplied; i.e., the image is stored
|
|
||||||
using a premultiplied 32-bit ARGB format (0xAARRGGBB).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We then construct a font object that uses the application's
|
|
||||||
default font, and set its style strategy. The style strategy tells
|
|
||||||
the font matching algorithm what type of fonts should be used to
|
|
||||||
find an appropriate default family. The QFont::ForceOutline forces
|
|
||||||
the use of outline fonts.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To draw the text and frame onto the image, we use the QPainter
|
|
||||||
class. QPainter provides highly optimized methods to do most of
|
|
||||||
the drawing GUI programs require. It can draw everything from
|
|
||||||
simple lines to complex shapes like pies and chords. It can also
|
|
||||||
draw aligned text and pixmaps.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/draglabel.cpp 1
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A painter can be activated by passing a paint device to the
|
|
||||||
constructor, or by using the \l{QPainter::}{begin()} method as we
|
|
||||||
do in this example. The \l{QPainter::}{end()} method deactivates
|
|
||||||
it. Note that the latter function is called automatically upon
|
|
||||||
destruction when the painter is activated by its constructor. The
|
|
||||||
QPainter::Antialiasing render hint ensures that the paint engine
|
|
||||||
will antialias the edges of primitives if possible.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When the painting is done, we convert our image to a pixmap using
|
|
||||||
QPixmap's \l {QPixmap::}{fromImage()} method. This method also
|
|
||||||
takes an optional flags argument, and converts the given image to
|
|
||||||
a pixmap using the specified flags to control the conversion (the
|
|
||||||
flags argument is a bitwise-OR of the Qt::ImageConversionFlags;
|
|
||||||
passing 0 for flags sets all the default options).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/draglabel.cpp 2
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Finally, we set the label's \l{QLabel::pixmap}{pixmap property}
|
|
||||||
and store the label's text for later use.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\e{Note that setting the pixmap clears any previous content, including
|
|
||||||
any text previously set using QLabel::setText(), and disables
|
|
||||||
the label widget's buddy shortcut, if any.}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\section1 DragWidget Class Definition
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The \c DragWidget class inherits QWidget, providing support for
|
|
||||||
drag and drop operations:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.h 0
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To make the widget responsive to drag and drop operations, we simply
|
|
||||||
reimplement the \l{QWidget::}{dragEnterEvent()},
|
|
||||||
\l{QWidget::}{dragMoveEvent()} and \l{QWidget::}{dropEvent()} event
|
|
||||||
handlers inherited from QWidget.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We also reimplement \l{QWidget::}{mousePressEvent()} to make the
|
|
||||||
widget responsive to mouse clicks. This is where we will write code
|
|
||||||
to start drag and drop operations.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\section1 DragWidget Class Implementation
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In the constructor, we first open the file containing the words on
|
|
||||||
our fridge magnets:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 0
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
QFile is an I/O device for reading and writing text and binary
|
|
||||||
files and resources, and may be used by itself or in combination
|
|
||||||
with QTextStream or QDataStream. We have chosen to read the
|
|
||||||
contents of the file using the QTextStream class that provides a
|
|
||||||
convenient interface for reading and writing text.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We then create the fridge magnets. As long as there is data (the
|
|
||||||
QTextStream::atEnd() method returns true if there is no more data
|
|
||||||
to be read from the stream), we read one line at a time using
|
|
||||||
QTextStream's \l {QTextStream::}{readLine()} method.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 1
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For each line, we create a \c DragLabel object using the read line
|
|
||||||
as text, we calculate its position and ensure that it is visible by
|
|
||||||
calling the QWidget::show() method. We set the Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose
|
|
||||||
attribute on each label to ensure that any unused labels will be
|
|
||||||
deleted; we will need to create new labels and delete old ones when
|
|
||||||
they are dragged around, and this ensures that the example does not
|
|
||||||
leak memory.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We also set the \c FridgeMagnets widget's palette, minimum size
|
|
||||||
and window title.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 2
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Finally, to enable our user to move the fridge magnets around, we
|
|
||||||
must also set the \c FridgeMagnets widget's
|
|
||||||
\l{QWidget::acceptDrops}{acceptDrops} property.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 3
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Setting this property to true announces to the system that this
|
|
||||||
widget \e may be able to accept drop events (events that are sent
|
|
||||||
when drag and drop actions are completed). Later, we will
|
|
||||||
implement the functions that ensure that the widget accepts the
|
|
||||||
drop events it is interested in.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\section2 Dragging
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Let's take a look at the \l{QWidget::}{mousePressEvent()} event
|
|
||||||
handler, where drag and drop operations begin:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 13
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 14
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Mouse events occur when a mouse button is pressed or released
|
|
||||||
inside a widget, or when the mouse cursor is moved. By
|
|
||||||
reimplementing the \l{QWidget::}{mousePressEvent()} method we
|
|
||||||
ensure that we will receive mouse press events for the widget
|
|
||||||
containing the fridge magnets.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Whenever we receive such an event, we first check to see if the
|
|
||||||
position of the click coincides with one of the labels. If not,
|
|
||||||
we simply return.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If the user clicked a label, we determine the position of the
|
|
||||||
\e{hot spot} (the position of the click relative to the top-left
|
|
||||||
corner of the label). We create a byte array to store the label's
|
|
||||||
text and the hot spot, and we use a QDataStream object to stream
|
|
||||||
the data into the byte array.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
With all the information in place, we create a new QMimeData object.
|
|
||||||
As mentioned above, QMimeData objects associate the data that they
|
|
||||||
hold with the corresponding MIME types to ensure that information
|
|
||||||
can be safely transferred between applications. The
|
|
||||||
\l{QMimeData::}{setData()} method sets the data associated with a
|
|
||||||
given MIME type. In our case, we associate our item data with the
|
|
||||||
custom \c application/x-fridgemagnet type.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 15
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Note that we also associate the magnet's text with the
|
|
||||||
\c text/plain MIME type using QMimeData's \l{QMimeData::}{setText()}
|
|
||||||
method. Below, we will see how our widget detects both these MIME
|
|
||||||
types with its event handlers.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Finally, we create a QDrag object. It is the QDrag class that
|
|
||||||
handles most of the details of a drag and drop operation,
|
|
||||||
providing support for MIME-based drag and drop data transfer. The
|
|
||||||
data to be transferred by the drag and drop operation is contained
|
|
||||||
in a QMimeData object. When we call QDrag's
|
|
||||||
\l{QDrag::}{setMimeData()} method the ownership of our item data is
|
|
||||||
transferred to the QDrag object.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We call the \l{QDrag::}{setPixmap()} function to set the pixmap used
|
|
||||||
to represent the data during the drag and drop operation.
|
|
||||||
Typically, this pixmap shows an icon that represents the MIME type
|
|
||||||
of the data being transferred, but any pixmap can be used. In this
|
|
||||||
example, we simply use the pixmap used by the label itself to make
|
|
||||||
it look like the fridge magnet itself is being moved.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 16
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We also specify the cursor's hot spot, its position relative to the
|
|
||||||
top-level corner of the drag pixmap, to be the point we calculated
|
|
||||||
above. This makes the process of dragging the label feel more natural
|
|
||||||
because the cursor always points to the same place on the label
|
|
||||||
during the drag operation.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We start the drag operation using QDrag's \l{QDrag::}{exec()} function,
|
|
||||||
requesting that the magnet is copied when the drag is completed.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 17
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The function returns the drop action actually performed by the user
|
|
||||||
(this can be either a copy or a move action in this case); if this
|
|
||||||
action is equal to Qt::MoveAction we will close the activated
|
|
||||||
fridge magnet widget because we will create a new one to replace it
|
|
||||||
(see the \l{drop}{dropEvent()} implementation). Otherwise, if
|
|
||||||
the drop is outside our main widget, we simply show the widget in
|
|
||||||
its original position.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\section2 Dropping
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When a a drag and drop action enters our widget, we will receive a
|
|
||||||
drag enter \e event. QDragEnterEvent inherits most of its
|
|
||||||
functionality from QDragMoveEvent, which in turn inherits most of
|
|
||||||
its functionality from QDropEvent. Note that we must accept this
|
|
||||||
event in order to receive the drag move events that are sent while
|
|
||||||
the drag and drop action is in progress. The drag enter event is
|
|
||||||
always immediately followed by a drag move event.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In our \c dragEnterEvent() implementation, we first determine
|
|
||||||
whether we support the event's MIME type or not:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 4
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 5
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 6
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If the type is \c application/x-fridgemagnet and the event
|
|
||||||
origins from any of this application's fridge magnet widgets, we
|
|
||||||
first set the event's drop action using the
|
|
||||||
QDropEvent::setDropAction() method. An event's drop action is the
|
|
||||||
action to be performed on the data by the target. Qt::MoveAction
|
|
||||||
indicates that the data is moved from the source to the target.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Then we call the event's \l {QDragMoveEvent::}{accept()} method to
|
|
||||||
indicate that we have handled the event. In general, unaccepted
|
|
||||||
events might be propagated to the parent widget. If the event
|
|
||||||
origins from any other widget, we simply accept the proposed
|
|
||||||
action.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 7
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We also accept the proposed action if the event's MIME type is \c
|
|
||||||
text/plain, i.e., if QMimeData::hasText() returns true. If the
|
|
||||||
event has any other type, on the other hand, we call the event's
|
|
||||||
\l {QDragMoveEvent::}{ignore()} method allowing the event to be
|
|
||||||
propagated further.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 8
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Drag move events occur when the cursor enters a widget, when it
|
|
||||||
moves within the widget, and when a modifier key is pressed on the
|
|
||||||
keyboard while the widget has focus. Our widget will receive drag
|
|
||||||
move events repeatedly while a drag is within its boundaries. We
|
|
||||||
reimplement the \l {QWidget::}{dragMoveEvent()} method, and
|
|
||||||
examine the event in the exact same way as we did with drag enter
|
|
||||||
events.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Note that the \l{QWidget::}{dropEvent()} event handler behaves
|
|
||||||
slightly differently: We first get hold of the event's MIME
|
|
||||||
data.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\target drop
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 9
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The QMimeData class provides a container for data that
|
|
||||||
records information about its MIME type. QMimeData objects
|
|
||||||
associate the data that they hold with the corresponding MIME
|
|
||||||
types to ensure that information can be safely transferred between
|
|
||||||
applications, and copied around within the same application.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We retrieve the data associated with the \c application/x-fridgemagnet
|
|
||||||
MIME type using a data stream in order to create a new \c DragLabel
|
|
||||||
object.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 10
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The QDataStream class provides serialization of binary data to a
|
|
||||||
QIODevice (a data stream is a binary stream of encoded information
|
|
||||||
which is completely independent of the host computer's operating
|
|
||||||
system, CPU or byte order).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Finally, we create a label and move it to the event's position:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 11
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If the source of the event is also the widget receiving the
|
|
||||||
drop event, we set the event's drop action to Qt::MoveAction and
|
|
||||||
call the event's \l{QDragMoveEvent::}{accept()}
|
|
||||||
method. Otherwise, we simply accept the proposed action. This
|
|
||||||
means that labels are moved rather than copied in the same
|
|
||||||
window. However, if we drag a label to a second instance of the
|
|
||||||
Fridge Magnets example, the default action is to copy it, leaving
|
|
||||||
the original in the first instance.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If the event's MIME type is \c text/plain (i.e., if
|
|
||||||
QMimeData::hasText() returns true) we retrieve its text and split
|
|
||||||
it into words. For each word we create a new \c DragLabel action,
|
|
||||||
and show it at the event's position plus an offset depending on
|
|
||||||
the number of words in the text. In the end we accept the proposed
|
|
||||||
action. This lets the user drop selected text from a text editor or
|
|
||||||
Web browser onto the widget to add more fridge magnets.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\snippet draganddrop/fridgemagnets/dragwidget.cpp 12
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If the event has any other type, we call the event's
|
|
||||||
\l{QDragMoveEvent::}{ignore()} method allowing the event to be
|
|
||||||
propagated further.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\section1 Summary
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We set our main widget's \l{QWidget::}{acceptDrops} property
|
|
||||||
and reimplemented QWidget's \l{QWidget::}{dragEnterEvent()},
|
|
||||||
\l{QWidget::}{dragMoveEvent()} and \l{QWidget::}{dropEvent()} event
|
|
||||||
handlers to support content dropped on our widget.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In addition, we reimplemented the \l{QWidget::}{mousePressEvent()}
|
|
||||||
function to let the user pick up fridge magnets in the first place.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Because data is communicated using drag and drop operations and
|
|
||||||
encoded using MIME types, you can run more than one instance of this
|
|
||||||
example, and transfer magnets between them.
