Detailed Description

Namespace which holds static GUI-related helper functions.

Function Documentation

◆ convert() [1/2]

StringList OpenMS::GUIHelpers::convert ( const QStringList &  in)

◆ convert() [2/2]

QStringList OpenMS::GUIHelpers::convert ( const StringList in)

◆ drawText()

void OpenMS::GUIHelpers::drawText ( QPainter &  painter,
const QStringList &  text,
const QPoint &  where,
const QColor &  col_fg = QColor("invalid"),
const QColor &  col_bg = QColor("invalid"),
const QFont &  font = QFont("Courier") 
)

draw a multi-line text at coordinates XY using a specific font and color

Internally used getTextDimension() to figure out the size of the text-block/background which needs to be painted.

Parameters
painterWhere to draw
textEach item is a new line
whereCoordinates where to start drawing (upper left corner of text)
col_fgOptional text color; if invalid (=default) will use the current painter's color
col_bgOptional background color of bounding rectangle; if invalid (=default) no background will be painted
fontFont to use; will use Courier by default

◆ getSaveFilename()

QString OpenMS::GUIHelpers::getSaveFilename ( QWidget parent,
const QString &  caption,
const QString &  dir,
const FileTypeList supported_file_types,
bool  add_all_filter,
const FileTypes::Type  fallback_extension 
)

Open a dialog to select a filename to save data to.

◆ getTextDimension()

QRectF OpenMS::GUIHelpers::getTextDimension ( const QStringList &  text,
const QFont &  font,
int &  line_spacing 
)

Obtains the bounding rectangle of a text (useful to determine overlaps etc)

◆ intersectionPoint()

QPointF OpenMS::GUIHelpers::intersectionPoint ( const QRectF &  rect,
const QPointF &  p 
)

Find the point on a rectangle where a ray/line from a point p to its center would intersect at.

Parameters
rectRectangle which intersects with the line from p to its center
pA point outside the rectangle
Returns
The intersection point or the center() of rect if p is inside the rectangle

◆ nearestPoint()

QPointF OpenMS::GUIHelpers::nearestPoint ( const QPointF &  origin,
const QList< QPointF > &  list 
)

Returns the point in the list that is nearest to origin.

◆ openFolder()

void OpenMS::GUIHelpers::openFolder ( const QString &  folder)

Open a folder in file explorer Will show a message box on failure

◆ openURL()

void OpenMS::GUIHelpers::openURL ( const QString &  target)

Open a certain URL (in a browser) Will show a message box on failure

Referenced by TOPPASBase::showURL().

◆ startTOPPView()

void OpenMS::GUIHelpers::startTOPPView ( const QStringList &  args)

Open TOPPView (e.g. from within TOPPAS)
