在PyQt4中,是否可以从QTabWidget中分离选项卡?

许多专业应用程序(例如Web浏览器)使用户能够从选项卡栏中分离选项卡。令人惊讶的是,Qt4不提供此功能。有些人可能会说使用表格化的QDockWidgets提供此功能。但是,也可以认为QDockWidgets实现使用户看起来不专业且不直观。

3 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:4)

我在Qt Center论坛的this post中找到了一个部分工作的C ++示例。这是不完整和错误的。但是,我能够使用它作为参考和起点,使用PyQt创建我自己的DetachableTabWidget。由于我无法在PyQt中找到任何其他功能完备的例子,我想在此发布。也许对某人有用。

我不会称之为完美,所以我绝对愿意接受任何改进建议。

<强> EDIT1

之前的迭代有一些严重的缺陷,直到我尝试在真实世界的应用程序中使用它才发现。我使用QDialog作为分离的选项卡,这意味着它们无法像典型的窗口那样被最小化或最大化。我也让它们成为选项卡主机的父级,这意味着分离的选项卡始终位于选项卡主机的顶部。以下是我的新版本,它使用QMainWindow作为分离的选项卡。

<强> EDIT2

正如Qt的文档中所述,QDrag.exec_()在Windows和Linux之间的行为有所不同。这导致我为EDIT1发布的迭代失去了在Linux中移动(重新排序)选项卡的能力。我对这个迭代做了一个小修复,现在它可以在Windows和Linux上运行。我还更新了评论,以反映从QDialog到QMainWindow的交换。

<强> EDIT3

我添加了removeTabByName(name)函数,该函数将按名称删除标签,即使它已分离。

我添加了通过将标签拖回标签栏区域来重新附加标签的功能。如果它被放在另一个标签上,它将被插入该位置。如果它被拖放到选项卡栏旁边,它将作为最后一个选项卡附加。如果所有选项卡都已分离,则将DetachedTabWidget中的分离选项卡放到任何位置将重新附加选项卡。

# The DetachableTabWidget adds additional functionality to Qt's QTabWidget that allows it
# to detach and re-attach tabs.
#
# Additional Features:
#   Detach tabs by
#     dragging the tabs away from the tab bar
#     double clicking the tab
#   Re-attach tabs by
#     dragging the detached tab's window into the tab bar
#     closing the detached tab's window
#   Remove tab (attached or detached) by name
#
# Modified Features:
#   Re-ordering (moving) tabs by dragging was re-implemented  
#

<强>缺点

与Web浏览器不同,关闭窗口(分离选项卡)将始终将其重新附加到选项卡栏。在将来,我想添加一个选项,以便能够关闭窗口而不是重新连接。

我仍然需要添加一个方法来从窗口小部件外部获取对分离选项卡的引用。

<强>错误

非常感谢任何有关这些的帮助。

  1. 在极少数情况下,通过拖动删除标签时,拖动事件不会被检测为拖动。这是非常罕见的,我没有花太多时间在它上面。
  2. 有时分离选项卡时,保存分离选项卡的QMainWindow不会生成NonClientAreaMouseMove事件。让它再次开始生成此事件的唯一方法是让QMainWindow松散并重新获得焦点。我不确定这是不是我的错误。

答案 1 :(得分:3)

最初的解决方案由Blackwood撰写,这个帖子的作者,所有的功劳都归功于他们

谢谢你。我正是在寻找这个并且发生在这个线程上。

我正在寻找的应用程序使用PyQt5,尽管类似,它有足够的差异来打破上面发布的代码。

我编辑了代码以使其适用于PyQt5。它有效,但没有经过正确的错误测试

jsPDF.prototype.addHangle = function(x, y, text) { 
  // some logic for supporting Korean
};

var doc = new jsPDF();
doc.addHangle();

答案 2 :(得分:1)

我在发布的PyQt5答案上遇到了一些问题,因此我对Blackwood的代码进行了自己的重构,并且在不删除任何部分的情况下就可以正常工作了:
