✨ NAME ✨

QMotifStyle — the Motif look and feel, fr fr

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <qmotifstyle.h>

Inherits QCommonStyle.

Inherited by QCDEStyle, QMotifPlusStyle, and QSGIStyle.

👑 Public Members

  • QMotifStyle ( bool useHighlightCols = FALSE )
  • void setUseHighlightColors ( bool arg )
  • bool useHighlightColors () const

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

The QMotifStyle class provides Motif look and feel. no cap.

So like, this class implements the Motif look and feel. It closely resembles the original Motif look as defined by the Open Group, but with some minor improvements — glow-up, basically. 💖 And the plot twist: the Motif style is Qt's default GUI style on UNIX platforms. main character energy tbh.

See also Widget Appearance and Style.

🌸 MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION 🌸

QMotifStyle::QMotifStyle ( bool useHighlightCols = FALSE )

Constructs a QMotifStyle. baby's first Motif style 🍼✨

If useHighlightCols is FALSE (the default), the style will polish the application's color palette to emulate the Motif way of highlighting, which is a simple inversion between the base and the text color. yes, an inversion. the vibes are flipped. 🔄

void QMotifStyle::setUseHighlightColors ( bool arg )

If arg is FALSE, the style will polish the application's color palette to emulate the Motif way of highlighting, which is a simple inversion between the base and the text color.

heads up bestie: the effect will show up the next time an application palette is set via QApplication::setPalette(). The current color palette of the application remains unchanged. so like, don't panic when nothing happens immediately. 😭

See also QStyle::polish().

bool QMotifStyle::useHighlightColors () const

Returns TRUE if the style treats the highlight colors of the palette in a Motif-like manner, which is a simple inversion between the base and the text color; otherwise returns FALSE. The default is FALSE.
