QGrid(3qt)

📦 version 3.3.8b, in fedora 43, fedora 44

💖 QGrid — bestie edition 💖

okay so this is the QGrid(3qt) manual page, and I'm gonna walk you through it like we're texting at 1am. it's from the Qt 3 era, it's a whole vibe, and yes it's genuinely useful. let's go 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

QGrid — simple geometry management of its children. that's it, that's the whole job. it's giving "I arrange your widgets and I do it well." 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <qgrid.h>

Inherits QFrame.

🎀 Public Members

QGrid ( int n, QWidget * parent = 0, const char * name = 0, WFlags f = 0 )
QGrid ( int n, Orientation orient, QWidget * parent = 0, const char *
    name = 0, WFlags f = 0 )
void setSpacing ( int space )

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

The QGrid widget provides simple geometry management of its children. no cap, that's literally its entire personality.

The grid places its widgets either in columns or in rows, depending on its orientation. pick your fighter bestie 🌈

The number of rows or columns is defined in the constructor. All the grid's children will be placed and sized in accordance with their sizeHint() and sizePolicy(). so like… it reads their vibes and respects them. iconic behavior honestly.

Use setMargin() to add space around the grid itself, and setSpacing() to add space between the widgets. personal space matters!! 🫶

(there was an image here in the original, and it got omitted — so just imagine a very cute diagram of widgets sitting in a grid. use your imagination bestie 🧚)

👑 MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION 👑

💜 QGrid::QGrid ( int n, QWidget * parent = 0, const char * name = 0, WFlags f = 0 )

Constructs a grid widget with parent parent, called name. n specifies the number of columns. The widget flags f are passed to the QFrame constructor. slay, columns only, no notes. 💅

💜 QGrid::QGrid ( int n, Orientation orient, QWidget * parent = 0, const char * name = 0, WFlags f = 0 )

Constructs a grid widget with parent parent, called name. here's where orient comes in and it's kinda the main character:

  • if orient is Horizontal, n specifies the number of columns.
  • if orient is Vertical, n specifies the number of rows.

The widget flags f are passed to the QFrame constructor. periodt. ✨

💜 void QGrid::setSpacing ( int space )

Sets the spacing between the child widgets to space. everyone gets space pixels of breathing room. boundaries are hot 🔥
