<hr><h2><a name="details"></a>Detailed Description</h2>
The QTabDialog class provides a stack of tabbed widgets.
<p>
A tabbed dialog is one in which several "pages" are available, and
the user selects which page to see and use by clicking on its tab,
or by pressing the indicated Alt-(letter) key combination.
<p>QTabDialog does not provide more than one row of tabs, and does not
provide tabs along the sides or bottom of the pages.  It also does
not offer any way to find out which page is currently visible or to
set the visible page.
<p>QTabDialog provides an OK button and optionally Apply, Cancel,
Defaults, and Help buttons.
<p>The normal way to use QTabDialog is to do the following in the
constructor: <ol> <li> Create a QTabDialog. <li> Create a <a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>
for each of the pages in the tab dialog, insert children into it,
set up geometry management for it, and use <a href="#193b2b">addTab</a>() to set up a tab
and keyboard accelerator for it. <li> Set up the buttons for the tab
dialog (Apply, Cancel and so on). <li> Connect to the
signals and slots. </ol>
<p>If you don't call addTab(), the page you have created will not be
visible.  Please don't confuse the object name you supply to the
QWidget constructor and the tab label you supply to addTab():
addTab() takes a name which indicates an accelerator and is
meaningful and descriptive to the user, while the widget name is
used primarily for debugging.
<p>Almost all applications have to connect the <a href="#7ccecd">applyButtonPressed</a>()
signal to something.  applyButtonPressed() is emitted when either OK
or Apply is clicked, and your slot must copy the dialog's state into
the application.
<p>There are also several other signals which may be useful. <ul> <li>
<a href="#466766">cancelButtonPressed</a>() is emitted when the user clicks Cancel.  <li>
<a href="#ff00e5">defaultButtonPressed</a>() is emitted when the user clicks Defaults;
<li>
<a href="#661457">helpButtonPressed</a>() is emitted when the user clicks Help;
the
slot it is connected to should reset the state of the dialog to the
application defaults.  <li> <a href="#46a10a">aboutToShow</a>() is emitted at the start of
<a href="#46b852">show</a>(); if there is any chance that the state of the application may
change between the creation of the tab dialog and the time it show()
is called, you must connect this signal to a slot which resets the
state of the dialog. <li> <a href="#edcfe8">currentChanged</a>() is emitted when the user
selects some page. </ul>
<p>Each tab is either enabled or disabled at any given time.  If a tab
is enabled, the tab text is drawn in black and the user can select
that tab.  If it is disabled, the tab is drawn in a different way
and the user can not select that tab.  Note that even though a tab
is disabled, the page can still be visible, for example if all of
the tabs happen to be disabled.
<p>While tab dialogs can be a very good way to split up a complex
dialog, it's also very easy to make a royal mess out of a tab
dialog.  Here is some advice.  For more, see e.g. the <a
href="http://world.std.com/~uieweb/tabbed.htm">UIE web page on tab
dialogs.</a>
<p><ol><li> Make sure that each page forms a logical whole which is
adequately described by the label on the tab.
<p>If two related functions are on different pages, users will often
not find one of the functions, or will spend far too long searching
for it.
<li> Do not join several independent dialogs into one tab dialog.
Several aspects of one complex dialog is acceptable (such as the
various aspects of "preferences") but a tab dialog is no substitute
for a pop-up menu leading to several smaller dialogs.
<p>The OK button (and the other buttons) apply to the <em>entire</em> dialog.
If the tab dialog is really several independent smaller dialogs,
users often press Cancel to cancel just the changes he/she has made
on the current page: Many users will treat that page as independent
of the other pages.
<li> Do not use tab dialogs for frequent operations.  The tab dialog
is probably the most complex widget in common use at the moment, and
subjecting the user to this complexity during his/her normal use of
your application is most often a bad idea.
<p>The tab dialog is good for complex operations which have to be
performed seldom, like Preferences dialogs.  Not for common
operations, like setting left/right alignment in a word processor.
(Often, these common operations are actually independent dialogs and
should be treated as such.)
<p>The tab dialog is not a navigational aid, it is an organizational
aid.  It is a good way to organize aspects of a complex operation
(such as setting up caching and proxies in a web browser), but a bad
way to navigate towards a simple operation (such as emptying the
cache in a web browser - emptying the cache is <em>not</em> part of
setting up the cache, it is a separate and independent operation).
<li> The changes should take effect when the user presses Apply or
OK.  Not before.
<p>Providing Apply, Cancel or OK buttons on the individual pages is
likely to weaken the users' mental model of how tab dialogs work.
If you think a page needs its own buttons, consider making it a
separate dialog.
<li> There should be no implicit ordering of the pages.  If there
is, it is probably better to use a wizard dialog.
<p>If some of the pages seem to be ordered and others not, perhaps they
ought not to be joined in a tab dialog.

<h3 class="fn"><a name="33f89e"></a>QTabDialog::QTabDialog(<a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>*parent=0, constchar*name=0, boolmodal=FALSE, WFlagsf=0)</h3>
<p>Constructs a QTabDialog with only an Ok button.
<h3 class="fn"><a name="026f5d"></a>QTabDialog::~QTabDialog()</h3>
<p>Destructs the tab dialog.
<h3 class="fn">void<a name="46a10a"></a>QTabDialog::aboutToShow() <code>[signal]</code></h3>
<p>This signal is emitted by <a href="#46b852">show</a>() when it's time to set the state of
the dialog's contents.  The dialog should reflect the current state
of the application when if appears; if there is any chance that the
state of the application can change between the time you call
<a href="#33f89e">QTabDialog::QTabDialog</a>() and <a href="#46b852">QTabDialog::show</a>(), you should set the
dialog's state in a slot and connect this signal to it.
<p>This applies mainly to QTabDialog objects that are kept around
hidden rather than being created, show()<a href="n.html">n</a> and deleted afterwards.
<p>See also  <a href="#7ccecd">applyButtonPressed</a>(), <a href="#46b852">show</a>() and <a href="#466766">cancelButtonPressed</a>().
<h3 class="fn">void<a name="7430da"></a>QTabDialog::addTab(<a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>*child, <a href="qtab.html">QTab</a>*tab)</h3>
<p>This is a lower-level method for adding tabs, similar to the other
<a href="#193b2b">addTab</a>() method.  It is useful if you are using <a href="#b6a5a0">setTabBar</a>() to set a
<a href="qtabbar.html">QTabBar</a> subclass with an overridden <a href="qtabbar.html#cc2aeb">QTabBar::paint</a>() routine for a
subclass of <a href="qtab.html">QTab</a>.
<h3 class="fn">void<a name="193b2b"></a>QTabDialog::addTab(<a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>*child, const<a href="qiconset.html">QIconSet</a>&amp;iconset, const<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&amp;label)</h3>
<p>Adds another tab and page to the tab view.
<p>This function is the same as addTab() but with an additional
iconset.
<h3 class="fn">void<a name="74f2ce"></a>QTabDialog::addTab(<a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>*child, const<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&amp;label)</h3>
<p>Adds another tab and page to the tab view.
<p>The tab will be labelled <em>label</em> and <em>child</em> constitutes the new
page.  Note the difference between the widget name (which you supply
to widget constructors and to e.g. <a href="#2eb676">setTabEnabled</a>()) and the tab
label: The name is internal to the program and invariant, while the
label is shown on screen and may vary according to e.g. language.
<p><em>label</em> is written in the <a href="qbutton.html">QButton</a> style, where &P makes Qt create
an accelerator key on Alt-P for this page.  For example:
<p><pre>    td-&gt;addTab( graphicsPane, "&amp;Graphics" );
    td-&gt;addTab( soundPane, "&amp;Sound" );
</pre>
<p>If the user presses Alt-S the sound page of the tab dialog is shown,
if the user presses Alt-P the graphics page is shown.
<p>If you call <a href="#193b2b">addTab</a>() after <a href="#46b852">show</a>(), the screen will flicker and the
user will be confused.
<h3 class="fn">void<a name="7ccecd"></a>QTabDialog::applyButtonPressed() <code>[signal]</code></h3>
<p>This signal is emitted when the Apply or OK buttons are clicked.
<p>It should be connected to a slot (or several slots) which change the
application's state according to the state of the dialog.
<p>See also  <a href="#466766">cancelButtonPressed</a>(), <a href="#ff00e5">defaultButtonPressed</a>() and <a href="#6295a7">setApplyButton</a>().
<h3 class="fn">void<a name="466766"></a>QTabDialog::cancelButtonPressed() <code>[signal]</code></h3>
<p>This signal is emitted when the Cancel button is clicked.  It is
automatically connected to <a href="qdialog.html#604679">QDialog::reject</a>(), which will hide the
dialog.
<p>The Cancel button should not change the application's state in any
way, so generally you should not need to connect it to any slot.
<p>See also  <a href="#7ccecd">applyButtonPressed</a>(), <a href="#ff00e5">defaultButtonPressed</a>() and <a href="#3ca594">setCancelButton</a>().
<h3 class="fn">void<a name="ad8370"></a>QTabDialog::changeTab(<a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>*w, const<a href="qiconset.html">QIconSet</a>&amp;iconset, const<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&amp;label)</h3>
<p>Defines a new <em>iconset</em> and a new <em>label</em> for the tab of page <em>w</em>
<h3 class="fn">void<a name="dfac34"></a>QTabDialog::changeTab(<a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>*w, const<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&amp;label)</h3>
<p>Defines a new <em>label</em> for the tab of page <em>w</em>
<h3 class="fn">void<a name="edcfe8"></a>QTabDialog::currentChanged(<a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>*) <code>[signal]</code></h3>

<h3 class="fn">void<a name="ff00e5"></a>QTabDialog::defaultButtonPressed() <code>[signal]</code></h3>
<p>This signal is emitted when the Defaults button is pressed.  It

<h3 class="fn">void<a name="661457"></a>QTabDialog::helpButtonPressed() <code>[signal]</code></h3>
<p>This signal is emitted when the Help button is pressed.  It
should give instructions about how to use the dialog.

<h3 class="fn">void<a name="bf4c79"></a>QTabDialog::insertTab(<a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>*child, <a href="qtab.html">QTab</a>*tab, intindex=-1)</h3>
<p>This is a lower-level method for inserting tabs, similar to the other
<a href="#4b21b5">insertTab</a>() method.  It is useful if you are using <a href="#b6a5a0">setTabBar</a>() to set a
<a href="qtabbar.html">QTabBar</a> subclass with an overridden <a href="qtabbar.html#cc2aeb">QTabBar::paint</a>() routine for a
subclass of <a href="qtab.html">QTab</a>.
<h3 class="fn">void<a name="4b21b5"></a>QTabDialog::insertTab(<a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>*child, const<a href="qiconset.html">QIconSet</a>&amp;iconset, const<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&amp;label, intindex=-1)</h3>
<p>Inserts another tab and page to the tab view.
<p>This function is the same as insertTab() but with an additional
iconset.
<h3 class="fn">void<a name="dc0940"></a>QTabDialog::insertTab(<a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>*child, const<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&amp;label, intindex=-1)</h3>
<p>Inserts another tab and page to the tab view.
<p>The tab will be labelled <em>label</em> and <em>child</em> constitutes the new
page.  Note the difference between the widget name (which you supply
to widget constructors and to e.g. <a href="#2eb676">setTabEnabled</a>()) and the tab
label: The name is internal to the program and invariant, while the
label is shown on screen and may vary according to e.g. language.
<p><em>label</em> is written in the <a href="qbutton.html">QButton</a> style, where &P makes Qt create
an accelerator key on Alt-P for this page.  For example:
<p><pre>    td-&gt;insertTab( graphicsPane, "&amp;Graphics" );
    td-&gt;insertTab( soundPane, "&amp;Sound" );
</pre>
<p>If <em>index</em> is not specified, the tab is simply added. Otherwise
it's inserted at the specified position.
<p>If the user presses Alt-S the sound page of the tab dialog is shown,
if the user presses Alt-P the graphics page is shown.
<p>If you call <a href="#4b21b5">insertTab</a>() after <a href="#46b852">show</a>(), the screen will flicker and the
user will be confused.
<h3 class="fn">bool<a name="0982a9"></a>QTabDialog::isTabEnabled(<a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>*w)const</h3>

<p><b>This function is obsolete.</b> It is provided to keep old source working, and will probably be removed in a future version of Qt.  We strongly advise against using it in new code.<p>
Returns TRUE if the page with object name <em>name</em> is enabled, and
false if it is disabled.
<p>If <em>name</em> is 0 or not the name of any of the pages, <a href="#0982a9">isTabEnabled</a>()
returns FALSE.

<p>The cancel button should always return the application to the state
it was in before the tab view popped up, or if the user has clicked
Apply, back the the state immediately after the last Apply.
<p>When Cancel is clicked, the <a href="#466766">cancelButtonPressed</a>() signal is emitted.
The dialog is closed at the same time.
<p>If <em>text</em> is a
<a href="qstring.html#e21796">null string</a>,
no button is shown.
