Member Function Documentation

◆ activeChild()

virtual QMdiSubWindow * iAMainWindow::activeChild ( )

pure virtual

Return the QMdiSubWindow for the current child.

Implemented in MainWindow, and MainWindow.

◆ activeMdiChild()

virtual iAMdiChild * iAMainWindow::activeMdiChild ( )

pure virtual

Provides access to the currently active mdi child, if such is available.

Returns: pointer to the currently active mdi child, or nullptr if no child is currently open

Implemented in MainWindow.

◆ addActionIcon()

virtual void iAMainWindow::addActionIcon	(	QAction *	action,
		QString const &	iconName )

pure virtual

add an icon to an action (and keep the action for that icon up-to-date if the style changes

Implemented in MainWindow.

◆ addSubWindow()

virtual QMdiSubWindow * iAMainWindow::addSubWindow ( QWidget * child )

pure virtual

Close a child window.

Implemented in MainWindow.

◆ createMdiChild()

pure virtual

retrieve the default preferences.

Implemented in MainWindow.

◆ editMenu()

virtual QMenu * iAMainWindow::editMenu ( )
