- \class QDesktopWidget
- \brief The QDesktopWidget class provides access to screen information on multi-head systems.
-
- \ingroup advanced
- \ingroup desktop
- \ingroup environment
- \mainclass
-
- QApplication::desktop() function should be used to get an instance
- of the QDesktopWidget.
-
- Systems with more than one graphics card and monitor can manage the
- physical screen space available either as multiple desktops, or as a
- large virtual desktop, which usually has the size of the bounding
- rectangle of all the screens (see isVirtualDesktop()). For an
- application, one of the available screens is the primary screen, i.e.
- the screen where the main widget resides (see primaryScreen()). All
- windows opened in the context of the application should be
- constrained to the boundaries of the primary screen; for example,
- it would be inconvenient if a dialog box popped up on a different
- screen, or split over two screens.
-
- The QDesktopWidget provides information about the geometry of the
- available screens with screenGeometry(). The number of screens
- available is returned by numScreens(). The screen number that a
- particular point or widget is located in is returned by
- screenNumber().
-
- Widgets provided by Qt use this class, for example, to place
- tooltips, menus and dialog boxes according to the parent or
- application widget.
-
- Applications can use this class to save window positions, or to place
- child widgets on one screen.
-
- \img qdesktopwidget.png Managing Multiple Screens
-
- In the illustration above, Application One's primary screen is
- screen 0, and App Two's primary screen is screen 1.
-
- \target multiple screens note
- \note QDesktopWidget inherits the QWidget properties, width() and
- height(), which specify the size of the desktop. However, for
- desktops with multiple screens, the size of the desktop is the union
- of all the screen sizes, so width() and height() should \e not be
- used for computing the size of a widget to be placed on one of the
- screens. The correct width and height values are obtained using
- availableGeometry() or screenGeometry() for a particular screen.
