These classes enable developers to take advantage - of native services while still using a cross-platform API. - - \tableofcontents - - \section1 Opening External Resources - - Although Qt provides facilities to handle and display resources, such as - \l{QImageIOHandler}{common image formats} and \l{QTextDocument}{HTML}, - it is sometimes necessary to open files and external resources using external - applications. - - QDesktopServices provides an interface to services offered by the user's desktop - environment. In particular, the \l{QDesktopServices::}{openUrl()} function is - used to open resources using the appropriate application, which may have been - specifically configured by the user. - - \section1 System Tray Icons - - Many modern desktop environments feature docks or panels with \e{system trays} - in which applications can install icons. Applications often use system tray icons - to display status information, either by updating the icon itself or by showing - information in "balloon messages". Additionally, many applications provide - pop-up menus that can be accessed via their system tray icons. - - The QSystemTrayIcon class exposes all of the above features via an intuitive - Qt-style API that can be used on all desktop platforms. - - \section1 Desktop Widgets - - On systems where the user's desktop is displayed using more than one screen, - certain types of applications may need to obtain information about the - configuration of the user's workspace to ensure that new windows and dialogs - are opened in appropriate locations. - - The QDesktopWidget class can be used to monitor the positions of widgets and - notify applications about changes to the way the desktop is split over the - available screens. This enables applications to implement policies for - positioning new windows so that, for example, they do not distract a user - who is working on a specific task. - - -*/ |
