Detailed Description

A color selection dialog.

Features:

  • Color selection from a wide range of palettes.
  • Color selection from a palette of H vs S and V selectors.
  • Direct input of HSV or RGB values.
  • Saving of custom colors

In most cases, you will want to use the static method KColorDialog::getColor(). This pops up the dialog (with an initial selection provided by you), lets the user choose a color, and returns.

Example:

QColor myColor;
int result = KColorDialog::getColor( myColor );
if ( result == KColorDialog::Accepted )
...

To react to the color selection as it is being selected, the colorSelected() signal can be used. This can be used still in a modal way, for example:

KColorDialog dialog(this);
connect(&dialog, SIGNAL(colorSelected(const QColor &)), this, SLOT(temporarilyChangeColor(const QColor &)));
QColor myColor;
dialog.setColor(myColor);
int result = dialog.exec();
if ( result == KColorDialog::Accepted )
changeColor( dialog.color() );
else
temporarilyChangeColor(myColor); //change back to original color

KDE Color Dialog

The color dialog is really a collection of several widgets which can you can also use separately: the quadratic plane in the top left of the dialog is a KXYSelector. Right next to it is a KHSSelector for choosing hue/saturation.

On the right side of the dialog you see a KColorTable showing a number of colors with a combo box which offers several predefined palettes or a palette configured by the user. The small field showing the currently selected color is a KColorPatch.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

KColorDialog::KColorDialog ( QWidget *  parent = 0L,
bool  modal = false 
)
explicit

Constructs a color selection dialog.

Definition at line 1011 of file kcolordialog.cpp.

KColorDialog::~KColorDialog ( )

Destroys the color selection dialog.

Definition at line 1305 of file kcolordialog.cpp.


Member Function Documentation

QColor KColorDialog::color ( ) const

Returns the currently selected color.

Definition at line 1465 of file kcolordialog.cpp.

void KColorDialog::colorSelected ( const QColor &  col)
signal

Emitted when a color is selected.

Connect to this to monitor the color as it as selected if you are not running modal.

QColor KColorDialog::defaultColor ( ) const
Returns:
the value passed to setDefaultColor

Definition at line 1361 of file kcolordialog.cpp.

bool KColorDialog::eventFilter ( QObject *  obj,
QEvent *  ev 
)
protectedvirtual

Definition at line 1315 of file kcolordialog.cpp.

int KColorDialog::getColor ( QColor &  theColor,
QWidget *  parent = 0L 
)
static

Creates a modal color dialog, let the user choose a color, and returns when the dialog is closed.

The selected color is returned in the argument theColor.

Parameters:
theColorif valid, specifies the color to be initially selected. On return, holds the selected color.
Returns:
QDialog::result().

Definition at line 1482 of file kcolordialog.cpp.

int KColorDialog::getColor ( QColor &  theColor,
const QColor &  defaultColor,
QWidget *  parent = 0L 
)
static

Creates a modal color dialog, lets the user choose a color, and returns when the dialog is closed.

The selected color is returned in the argument theColor.

This version takes a defaultColor argument, which sets the color selected by the "default color" checkbox. When this checkbox is checked, the invalid color (QColor()) is returned into theColor.

Parameters:
theColorif valid, specifies the color to be initially selected. On return, holds the selected color.
defaultColorcolor selected by the "default color" checkbox
Returns:
QDialog::result().

Definition at line 1500 of file kcolordialog.cpp.

QColor KColorDialog::grabColor ( const QPoint &  p)
static

Gets the color from the pixel at point p on the screen.

Definition at line 1749 of file kcolordialog.cpp.

bool KColorDialog::isAlphaChannelEnabled ( ) const

Returns true when the user can change the alpha channel.

Since:
4.5

Definition at line 1381 of file kcolordialog.cpp.

void KColorDialog::keyPressEvent ( QKeyEvent *  event)
protectedvirtual

Reimplemented from KDialog.

Definition at line 1777 of file kcolordialog.cpp.

void KColorDialog::mouseMoveEvent ( QMouseEvent *  e)
protectedvirtual

Definition at line 1721 of file kcolordialog.cpp.

void KColorDialog::mouseReleaseEvent ( QMouseEvent *  e)
protectedvirtual

Definition at line 1732 of file kcolordialog.cpp.

void KColorDialog::setAlphaChannelEnabled ( bool  alpha)

When set to true, the user is allowed to change the alpha component of the color.

The default value is false.

Since:
4.5

Definition at line 1366 of file kcolordialog.cpp.

void KColorDialog::setColor ( const QColor &  col)
slot

Preselects a color.

Definition at line 1474 of file kcolordialog.cpp.

void KColorDialog::setDefaultColor ( const QColor &  defaultCol)

Call this to make the dialog show a "Default Color" checkbox.

If this checkbox is selected, the dialog will return an "invalid" color (QColor()). This can be used to mean "the default text color", for instance, the one with the KDE text color on screen, but black when printing.
