Detailed Description

The QTabWidget class provides a stack of tabbed widgets.

\inmodule QtWidgets

A tab widget provides a tab bar (see QTabBar) and a "page area" that is used to display pages related to each tab. By default, the tab bar is shown above the page area, but different configurations are available (see \l{TabPosition}). Each tab is associated with a different widget (called a page). Only the current page is shown in the page area; all the other pages are hidden. The user can show a different page by clicking on its tab or by pressing its Alt+{letter} shortcut if it has one.

The normal way to use QTabWidget is to do the following: \list 1

Create a QTabWidget.
Create a QWidget for each of the pages in the tab dialog, but do not specify parent widgets for them.
Insert child widgets into the page widget, using layouts to position them as normal.
Call addTab() or insertTab() to put the page widgets into the tab widget, giving each tab a suitable label with an optional keyboard shortcut. \endlist

The position of the tabs is defined by \l tabPosition, their shape by \l tabShape.

The signal currentChanged() is emitted when the user selects a page.

The current page index is available as currentIndex(), the current page widget with currentWidget(). You can retrieve a pointer to a page widget with a given index using widget(), and can find the index position of a widget with indexOf(). Use setCurrentWidget() or setCurrentIndex() to show a particular page.

You can change a tab's text and icon using setTabText() or setTabIcon(). A tab and its associated page can be removed with removeTab().

Each tab is either enabled or disabled at any given time (see setTabEnabled()). If a tab is enabled, the tab text is drawn normally and the user can select that tab. If it is disabled, the tab is drawn in a different way and the user cannot select that tab. Note that even if a tab is disabled, the page can still be visible, for example if all of the tabs happen to be disabled.

Tab widgets can be a very good way to split up a complex dialog. An alternative is to use a QStackedWidget for which you provide some means of navigating between pages, for example, a QToolBar or a QListWidget.

Most of the functionality in QTabWidget is provided by a QTabBar (at the top, providing the tabs) and a QStackedWidget (most of the area, organizing the individual pages).

Member Function Documentation

◆ addTab() [1/2]

int QTabWidget::addTab	(	QWidget *	page,
		const QIcon &	icon,
		const QString &	label )

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.Adds a tab with the given page, icon, and label to the tab widget, and returns the index of the tab in the tab bar.

Ownership of page is passed on to the QTabWidget.

This function is the same as addTab(), but with an additional icon.

Definition at line 378 of file qtabwidget.cpp.

References child, icon, and insertTab().

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ addTab() [2/2]

int QTabWidget::addTab	(	QWidget *	page,
		const QString &	label )

Adds a tab with the given page and label to the tab widget, and returns the index of the tab in the tab bar.

Ownership of page is passed on to the QTabWidget.

If the tab's label contains an ampersand, the letter following the ampersand is used as a shortcut for the tab, e.g. if the label is "Bro\&wse" then Alt+W becomes a shortcut which will move the focus to this tab.

Note: If you call addTab() after show(), the layout system will try to adjust to the changes in its widgets hierarchy and may cause flicker. To prevent this, you can set the QWidget::updatesEnabled property to false prior to changes; remember to set the property to true when the changes are done, making the widget receive paint events again.

◆ insertTab() [1/2]

int QTabWidget::insertTab	(	int	index,
		QWidget *	page,

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.Inserts a tab with the given label, page, and icon into the tab widget at the specified index, and returns the index of the inserted tab in the tab bar.

Ownership of page is passed on to the QTabWidget.

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ insertTab() [2/2]

int QTabWidget::insertTab	(	int	index,
		QWidget *	page,
		const QString &	label )

Inserts a tab with the given label and page into the tab widget at the specified index, and returns the index of the inserted tab in the tab bar.

Ownership of page is passed on to the QTabWidget.

The label is displayed in the tab and may vary in appearance depending on the configuration of the tab widget.

If the tab's label contains an ampersand, the letter following the ampersand is used as a shortcut for the tab, e.g. if the label is "Bro\&wse" then Alt+W becomes a shortcut which will move the focus to this tab.

If index is out of range, the tab is simply appended. Otherwise it is inserted at the specified position.

If the QTabWidget was empty before this function is called, the new page becomes the current page. Inserting a new tab at an index less than or equal to the current index will increment the current index, but keep the current page.

Note: If you call insertTab() after show(), the layout system will try to adjust to the changes in its widgets hierarchy and may cause flicker. To prevent this, you can set the QWidget::updatesEnabled property to false prior to changes; remember to set the property to true when the changes are done, making the widget receive paint events again.

◆ setCornerWidget()

void QTabWidget::setCornerWidget	(	QWidget *	widget,
		Qt::Corner	corner = Qt::TopRightCorner )

Sets the given widget to be shown in the specified corner of the tab widget.

The geometry of the widget is determined based on the widget's sizeHint() and the style().

Only the horizontal element of the corner will be used.

Passing \nullptr shows no widget in the corner.

Any previously set corner widget is hidden.

All widgets set here will be deleted by the tab widget when it is destroyed unless you separately reparent the widget after setting some other corner widget (or \nullptr).

Note: Corner widgets are designed for \l North and \l South tab positions; other orientations are known to not work properly.

Defines a new label for the page at position index's tab.

If the provided text contains an ampersand character ('&'), a shortcut is automatically created for it. The character that follows the '&' will be used as the shortcut key. Any previous shortcut will be overwritten, or cleared if no shortcut is defined by the text. See the \l {QShortcut::mnemonic}{QShortcut} documentation for details (to display an actual ampersand, use '&&').

◆ currentIndex

QTabWidget::currentIndex
