Public Slots

virtual void setFormWindow(QDesignerFormWindowInterface *formWindow) = 0

Detailed Description

You can use the QDesignerObjectInspectorInterface to change the current form window selection. For example, when implementing a custom widget plugin:

         QDesignerObjectInspectorInterface *objectInspector = 0;
         objectInspector = formEditor->objectInspector();

         QDesignerFormWindowManagerInterface *manager = 0;
         manager = formEditor->formWindowManager();

         objectInspector->setFormWindow(manager->formWindow(0));

The QDesignerObjectInspectorInterface class is not intended to be instantiated directly. You can retrieve an interface to Qt Designer's object inspector using the QDesignerFormEditorInterface::objectInspector() function. A pointer to Qt Designer's current QDesignerFormEditorInterface object (formEditor in the example above) is provided by the QDesignerCustomWidgetInterface::initialize() function's parameter. When implementing a custom widget plugin, you must subclass the QDesignerCustomWidgetInterface to expose your plugin to Qt Designer.

The interface provides the core() function that you can use to retrieve a pointer to Qt Designer's current QDesignerFormEditorInterface object, and the setFormWindow() function that enables you to change the current form window selection.
