## Detailed Description

## Type Documentation

### enum Qt::AlignmentFlag
flags Qt::Alignment

This enum type is used to describe alignment. It contains horizontal and vertical flags that can be combined to produce the required effect.

The TextElideMode enum can also be used in many situations to fine-tune the appearance of aligned text.

The horizontal flags are:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::AlignLeft` | `0x0001` | Aligns with the left edge.
`Qt::AlignRight` | `0x0002` | Aligns with the right edge.
`Qt::AlignHCenter` | `0x0004` | Centers horizontally in the available space.
`Qt::AlignJustify` | `0x0008` | Justifies the text in the available space.

The vertical flags are:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::AlignTop` | `0x0020` | Aligns with the top.
`Qt::AlignBottom` | `0x0040` | Aligns with the bottom.
`Qt::AlignVCenter` | `0x0080` | Centers vertically in the available space.
`Qt::AlignBaseline` | `0x0100` | Aligns with the baseline.

You can use only one of the horizontal flags at a time. There is one two-dimensional flag:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::AlignCenter` | `AlignVCenter | AlignHCenter` | Centers in both dimensions.

You can use at most one horizontal and one vertical flag at a time. Qt::AlignCenter counts as both horizontal and vertical.

Three enum values are useful in applications that can be run in right-to-left mode:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::AlignAbsolute` | `0x0010` | If the widget's layout direction is Qt::RightToLeft (instead of Qt::LeftToRight, the default), Qt::AlignLeft refers to the right edge and Qt::AlignRight to the left edge. This is normally the desired behavior. If you want Qt::AlignLeft to always mean "left" and Qt::AlignRight to always mean "right", combine the flag with Qt::AlignAbsolute.
`Qt::AlignLeading` | `AlignLeft` | Synonym for Qt::AlignLeft.
`Qt::AlignTrailing` | `AlignRight` | Synonym for Qt::AlignRight.

Masks:

Constant | Value
--- | ---
`Qt::AlignHorizontal_Mask` | `AlignLeft | AlignRight | AlignHCenter | AlignJustify | AlignAbsolute`
`Qt::AlignVertical_Mask` | `AlignTop | AlignBottom | AlignVCenter | AlignBaseline`

Conflicting combinations of flags have undefined meanings.

The Alignment type is a typedef for QFlags<AlignmentFlag>. It stores an OR combination of AlignmentFlag values.

### enum Qt::AnchorPoint

Specifies a side of a layout item that can be anchored. This is used by QGraphicsAnchorLayout.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::AnchorLeft` | `0` | The left side of a layout item.
`Qt::AnchorHorizontalCenter` | `1` | A "virtual" side that is centered between the left and the right side of a layout item.
`Qt::AnchorRight` | `2` | The right side of a layout item.
`Qt::AnchorTop` | `3` | The top side of a layout item.
`Qt::AnchorVerticalCenter` | `4` | A "virtual" side that is centered between the top and the bottom side of a layout item.
`Qt::AnchorBottom` | `5` | The bottom side of a layout item.

See also QGraphicsAnchorLayout.

### enum Qt::ApplicationAttribute

This enum describes attributes that change the behavior of application-wide features. These are enabled and disabled using QCoreApplication::setAttribute(), and can be tested for with QCoreApplication::testAttribute().

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::AA_DontShowIconsInMenus` | `2` | Actions with the Icon property won't be shown in any menus unless specifically set by the QAction::iconVisibleInMenu property. Menus that are currently open or menus already created in the native macOS menubar may not pick up a change in this attribute. Changes in the QAction::iconVisibleInMenu property will always be picked up.

`Qt::AA_DontShowShortcutsInContextMenus`

`28`

Actions with the Shortcut property won't be shown in any shortcut menus unless specifically set by the QAction::shortcutVisibleInContextMenu property. This value was added in Qt 5.10, and defaults to the preference reported by the implementation of QPlatformIntegration::styleHint. To override the platform integration, set this attribute after QCoreApplication has been instantiated.

`Qt::AA_NativeWindows` | `3` | Ensures that widgets have native windows.
`Qt::AA_DontCreateNativeWidgetSiblings` | `4` | Ensures that siblings of native widgets stay non-native unless specifically set by the Qt::WA_NativeWindow attribute.

`Qt::AA_PluginApplication`

`5`

Indicates that Qt is used to author a plugin. Depending on the operating system, it suppresses specific initializations that do not necessarily make sense in the plugin case. For example on macOS, this includes avoiding loading our nib for the main menu and not taking possession of the native menu bar. Setting this attribute to true will also set the AA_DontUseNativeMenuBar attribute to true. It also disables native event filters. This attribute must be set before QGuiApplication constructed. This value was added in Qt 5.7.

`Qt::AA_DontUseNativeMenuBar` | `6` | All menubars created while this attribute is set to true won't be used as a native menubar (e.g, the menubar at the top of the main screen on macOS).

`Qt::AA_MacDontSwapCtrlAndMeta`

`7`

On macOS by default, Qt swaps the Control and Meta (Command) keys (i.e., whenever Control is pressed, Qt sends Meta, and whenever Meta is pressed Control is sent). When this attribute is true, Qt will not do the flip. QKeySequence::StandardKey will also flip accordingly (i.e., QKeySequence::Copy will be Command+C on the keyboard regardless of the value set, though what is output for QKeySequence::toString() will be different).

`Qt::AA_Use96Dpi` | `8` | Assume the screen has a resolution of 96 DPI rather than using the OS-provided resolution. This will cause font rendering to be consistent in pixels-per-point across devices rather than defining 1 point as 1/72 inch.
`Qt::AA_SynthesizeTouchForUnhandledMouseEvents` | `11` | All mouse events that are not accepted by the application will be translated to touch events instead.
`Qt::AA_SynthesizeMouseForUnhandledTouchEvents` | `12` | All touch events that are not accepted by the application will be translated to left button mouse events instead. This attribute is enabled by default.
`Qt::AA_UseHighDpiPixmaps` | `13` | Make QIcon::pixmap() generate high-dpi pixmaps that can be larger than the requested size. Such pixmaps will have devicePixelRatio() set to a value higher than 1. After setting this attribute, application code that uses pixmap sizes in layout geometry calculations should typically divide by devicePixelRatio() to get device-independent layout geometry.
`Qt::AA_ForceRasterWidgets` | `14` | Make top-level widgets use pure raster surfaces, and do not support non-native GL-based child widgets.
`Qt::AA_UseDesktopOpenGL` | `15` | Forces the usage of desktop OpenGL (for example, opengl32.dll or libGL.so) on platforms that use dynamic loading of the OpenGL implementation. This attribute must be set before QGuiApplication is constructed. This value was added in Qt 5.3.
`Qt::AA_UseOpenGLES` | `16` | Forces the usage of OpenGL ES 2.0 or higher on platforms that use dynamic loading of the OpenGL implementation. This attribute must be set before QGuiApplication is constructed. This value was added in Qt 5.3.

`Qt::AA_UseSoftwareOpenGL`

`17`

Forces the usage of a software based OpenGL implementation on platforms that use dynamic loading of the OpenGL implementation. This will typically be a patched build of Mesa llvmpipe, providing OpenGL 2.1. The value may have no effect if no such OpenGL implementation is available. The default name of this library is `opengl32sw.dll` and can be overridden by setting the environment variable QT_OPENGL_DLL. See the platform-specific pages, for instance Qt for Windows, for more information. This attribute must be set before QGuiApplication is constructed. This value was added in Qt 5.4.

`Qt::AA_ShareOpenGLContexts` | `18` | Enables resource sharing between the OpenGL contexts used by classes like QOpenGLWidget and QQuickWidget. This allows sharing OpenGL resources, like textures, between QOpenGLWidget instances that belong to different top-level windows. This attribute must be set before QGuiApplication is constructed. This value was added in Qt 5.4.
`Qt::AA_SetPalette` | `19` | Indicates whether a palette was explicitly set on the QGuiApplication. This value was added in Qt 5.5.

`Qt::AA_EnableHighDpiScaling`

`20`

Enables high-DPI scaling in Qt on supported platforms (see also High DPI Displays). Supported platforms are X11, Windows and Android. Enabling makes Qt scale the main (device independent) coordinate system according to display scale factors provided by the operating system. This corresponds to setting the QT_AUTO_SCREEN​_SCALE_FACTOR environment variable to 1. This attribute must be set before QGuiApplication is constructed. This value was added in Qt 5.6.

`Qt::AA_DisableHighDpiScaling`

`21`

Disables high-DPI scaling in Qt, exposing window system coordinates. Note that the window system may do its own scaling, so this does not guarantee that QPaintDevice::devicePixelRatio() will be equal to 1. In addition, scale factors set by QT_SCALE_FACTOR will not be affected. This corresponds to setting the QT_AUTO_SCREEN​_SCALE_FACTOR environment variable to 0. This attribute must be set before QGuiApplication is constructed. This value was added in Qt 5.6.

`Qt::AA_UseStyleSheetPropagationInWidgetStyles` | `22` | By default, Qt Style Sheets disable regular QWidget palette and font propagation. When this flag is enabled, font and palette changes propagate as though the user had manually called the corresponding QWidget methods. See The Style Sheet Syntax - Inheritance for more details. This value was added in Qt 5.7.
`Qt::AA_DontUseNativeDialogs` | `23` | All dialogs created while this attribute is set to true won't use the native dialogs provided by the platform. This value was added in Qt 5.7.
`Qt::AA_SynthesizeMouseForUnhandledTabletEvents` | `24` | All tablet events that are not accepted by the application will be translated to mouse events instead. This attribute is enabled by default. This value was added in Qt 5.7.

`Qt::AA_CompressHighFrequencyEvents`

`25`

Enables compression of certain frequent events. On the X11 windowing system, the default value is true, which means that QEvent::MouseMove, QEvent::TouchUpdate, and changes in window size and position will be combined whenever they occur more frequently than the application handles them, so that they don't accumulate and overwhelm the application later. On Windows 8 and above the default value is also true, but it only applies to touch events. Mouse and window events remain unaffected by this flag. On other platforms, the default is false. (In the future, the compression feature may be implemented across platforms.) You can test the attribute to see whether compression is enabled. If your application needs to handle all events with no compression, you can unset this attribute. Notice that input events from tablet devices will not be compressed. See AA_CompressTabletEvents if you want these to be compressed as well. This value was added in Qt 5.7.

`Qt::AA_CompressTabletEvents` | `29` | Enables compression of input events from tablet devices. Notice that AA_CompressHighFrequencyEvents must be true for events compression to be enabled, and that this flag extends the former to tablet events. Currently supported on the X11 windowing system, Windows 8 and above. The default value is false. This value was added in Qt 5.10.
`Qt::AA_DontCheckOpenGLContextThreadAffinity` | `26` | When making a context current using QOpenGLContext, do not check that the QObject thread affinity of the QOpenGLContext object is the same thread calling makeCurrent(). This value was added in Qt 5.8.

`Qt::AA_DisableShaderDiskCache`

`27`

Disables caching of shader program binaries on disk. By default Qt Quick, QPainter's OpenGL backend, and any application using QOpenGLShaderProgram with one of its addCacheableShaderFromSource overloads will employ a disk-based program binary cache in either the shared or per-process cache storage location, on systems that support glProgramBinary(). In the unlikely event of this being problematic, set this attribute to disable all disk-based caching of shaders.

`Qt::AA_DisableWindowContextHelpButton` | `30` | Disables the WindowContextHelpButtonHint by default on Qt::Sheet and Qt::Dialog widgets. This hides the ? button on Windows, which only makes sense if you use QWhatsThis functionality. This value was added in Qt 5.10. In Qt 6, WindowContextHelpButtonHint will not be set by default.
`Qt::AA_DisableSessionManager` | `31` | Disables the QSessionManager. By default Qt will connect to a running session manager for a GUI application on supported platforms, use of a session manager may be redundant for system services. This attribute must be set before QGuiApplication is constructed. This value was added in 5.14
`Qt::AA_DisableNativeVirtualKeyboard` | `9` | When this attribute is set, the native on-screen virtual keyboard will not be shown automatically when a text input widget gains focus on a system without a physical keyboard. Currently supported on the Windows platform only. This value was added in 5.15

The following values are deprecated or obsolete:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---

`Qt::AA_ImmediateWidgetCreation`

`0`

This attribute is no longer fully supported in Qt 5. It ensures that widgets are created as soon as they are constructed. By default, resources for widgets are allocated on demand to improve efficiency and minimize resource usage. Setting or clearing this attribute affects widgets constructed after the change. Setting it tells Qt to create toplevel windows immediately. Therefore, if it is important to minimize resource consumption, do not set this attribute.

`Qt::AA_MacPluginApplication` | `AA_PluginApplication` | This attribute has been deprecated. Use AA_PluginApplication instead.
`Qt::AA_MSWindowsUseDirect3DByDefault` | `1` | This value is obsolete and has no effect.
`Qt::AA_X11InitThreads` | `10` | This value is obsolete and has no effect.

### enum Qt::ApplicationState
flags Qt::ApplicationStates

This enum type is used to specify the current state of the application.

The states are

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::ApplicationSuspended` | `0x00000000` | The application is about to suspend. When entering this state, the application should save its state, cease all activities, and be prepared for code execution to stop. While suspended, the application can be killed at any time without further warnings (e.g. when low memory forces the OS to purge suspended applications).
`Qt::ApplicationHidden` | `0x00000001` | The application is hidden and runs in the background. This is the normal state for applications that need to do background processing, like playing music, while the user interacts with other applications. The application should free up all graphical resources when entering this state.
`Qt::ApplicationInactive` | `0x00000002` | The application is visible, but not selected to be in front. On desktop platforms, this typically means that the user activated another application. On mobile platforms, it is more common to enter this state when the OS is interrupting the user with e.g. incoming calls or SMS-messages. While in this state, consider reducing CPU-intensive tasks.
`Qt::ApplicationActive` | `0x00000004` | The application is visible and selected to be in front.

This enum was introduced or modified in Qt 5.1.

The ApplicationStates type is a typedef for QFlags<ApplicationState>. It stores an OR combination of ApplicationState values.

### enum Qt::ArrowType

Constant | Value
--- | ---
`Qt::NoArrow` | `0`
`Qt::UpArrow` | `1`
`Qt::DownArrow` | `2`
`Qt::LeftArrow` | `3`
`Qt::RightArrow` | `4`

### enum Qt::AspectRatioMode

This enum type defines what happens to the aspect ratio when scaling an rectangle.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::IgnoreAspectRatio` | `0` | The size is scaled freely. The aspect ratio is not preserved.
`Qt::KeepAspectRatio` | `1` | The size is scaled to a rectangle as large as possible inside a given rectangle, preserving the aspect ratio.
`Qt::KeepAspectRatioByExpanding` | `2` | The size is scaled to a rectangle as small as possible outside a given rectangle, preserving the aspect ratio.

See also QSize::scale() and QImage::scaled().

### enum Qt::Axis

This enum type defines three values to represent the three axes in the cartesian coordinate system.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::XAxis` | `0` | The X axis.
`Qt::YAxis` | `1` | The Y axis.
`Qt::ZAxis` | `2` | The Z axis.

See also QTransform::rotate() and QTransform::rotateRadians().

### enum Qt::BGMode

Background mode:

Constant | Value
--- | ---
`Qt::TransparentMode` | `0`
`Qt::OpaqueMode` | `1`

### enum Qt::BrushStyle

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::NoBrush` | `0` | No brush pattern.
`Qt::SolidPattern` | `1` | Uniform color.
`Qt::Dense1Pattern` | `2` | Extremely dense brush pattern.
`Qt::Dense2Pattern` | `3` | Very dense brush pattern.

### enum Qt::ConnectionType

This enum describes the types of connection that can be used between signals and slots. In particular, it determines whether a particular signal is delivered to a slot immediately or queued for delivery at a later time.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::AutoConnection` | `0` | (Default) If the receiver lives in the thread that emits the signal, Qt::DirectConnection is used. Otherwise, Qt::QueuedConnection is used. The connection type is determined when the signal is emitted.
`Qt::DirectConnection` | `1` | The slot is invoked immediately when the signal is emitted. The slot is executed in the signalling thread.
`Qt::QueuedConnection` | `2` | The slot is invoked when control returns to the event loop of the receiver's thread. The slot is executed in the receiver's thread.
`Qt::BlockingQueuedConnection` | `3` | Same as Qt::QueuedConnection, except that the signalling thread blocks until the slot returns. This connection must not be used if the receiver lives in the signalling thread, or else the application will deadlock.
`Qt::UniqueConnection` | `0x80` | This is a flag that can be combined with any one of the above connection types, using a bitwise OR. When Qt::UniqueConnection is set, QObject::connect() will fail if the connection already exists (i.e. if the same signal is already connected to the same slot for the same pair of objects). This flag was introduced in Qt 4.6.

With queued connections, the parameters must be of types that are known to Qt's meta-object system, because Qt needs to copy the arguments to store them in an event behind the scenes. If you try to use a queued connection and get the error message:

     QObject::connect: Cannot queue arguments of type 'MyType'

Call qRegisterMetaType() to register the data type before you establish the connection.

When using signals and slots with multiple threads, see Signals and Slots Across Threads.

See also Thread Support in Qt, QObject::connect(), qRegisterMetaType(), and Q_DECLARE_METATYPE().

### enum Qt::ContextMenuPolicy

`Qt::PreventContextMenu` | `4` | the widget does not feature a context menu, and in contrast to `NoContextMenu`, the handling is not deferred to the widget's parent. This means that all right mouse button events are guaranteed to be delivered to the widget itself through QWidget::mousePressEvent(), and QWidget::mouseReleaseEvent().
`Qt::DefaultContextMenu` | `1` | the widget's QWidget::contextMenuEvent() handler is called.
`Qt::ActionsContextMenu` | `2` | the widget displays its QWidget::actions() as context menu.

`Qt::RFC2822Date`

`8`

RFC 2822, RFC 850 and RFC 1036 format: either `[ddd,] dd MMM yyyy [HH:mm[:ss]][ ±tzoff]` or `ddd MMM dd[ HH:mm:ss] yyyy[ ±tzoff]` are recognized for combined dates and times, where `tzoff` is a timezone offset in `HHmm` format. For dates and times separately, the same formats are matched and the unwanted parts are ignored. In particular, note that a time is not recognized without an accompanying date. When converting dates to string form, format `dd MMM yyyy` is used, for times the format is `HH:mm:ss`. For combined date and time, these are combined as `dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss ±tzoff` (omitting the optional leading day of the week from the first format recognized).

Note: For `ISODate` formats, each `y`, `M` and `d` represents a single digit of the year, month, and day used to specify the date. Each `H`, `m`, and `s` represents a single digit of the hour (up to 24), minute and second used to specify the time. The presence of a literal `T` character is used to separate the date and time when both are specified. For the `RFC2822Date` format, MMM stands for the first three letters of the month name in English, the other format characters have the same meaning as for the ISODate format.

### enum Qt::FillRule

Specifies which method should be used to fill the paths and polygons.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---

`Qt::OddEvenFill`

`0`

Specifies that the region is filled using the odd even fill rule. With this rule, we determine whether a point is inside the shape by using the following method. Draw a horizontal line from the point to a location outside the shape, and count the number of intersections. If the number of intersections is an odd number, the point is inside the shape. This mode is the default.

`Qt::WindingFill`

`1`

Specifies that the region is filled using the non zero winding rule. With this rule, we determine whether a point is inside the shape by using the following method. Draw a horizontal line from the point to a location outside the shape. Determine whether the direction of the line at each intersection point is up or down. The winding number is determined by summing the direction of each intersection. If the number is non zero, the point is inside the shape. This fill mode can also in most cases be considered as the intersection of closed shapes.

The options marked "(default)" are set if no other values from the list are included (since the defaults are zero):

Color/Mono preference (ignored for QBitmap):

Constant | Value | Description

`Qt::MonoOnly` | `0x00000002` | The pixmap becomes monochrome. If necessary, it is dithered using the chosen dithering algorithm.

Dithering mode preference:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::DiffuseDither` | `0x00000000` | (default) - A high-quality dither using error diffusion.
`Qt::OrderedDither` | `0x00000010` | A faster, ordered dither.
`Qt::ThresholdDither` | `0x00000020` | No dithering; closest color is used.

Dithering mode preference for 1-bit alpha masks:

Constant | Value | Description

`Qt::AutoDither` | `0x00000000` | (default) - Only dither when down-converting to 1 or 8-bit indexed formats.
`Qt::NoOpaqueDetection` | `0x00000100` | Do not check whether the image contains non-opaque pixels. Use this if you know that the image is semi-transparent and you want to avoid the overhead of checking the pixels in the image until a non-opaque pixel is found, or if you want the pixmap to retain an alpha channel for some other reason. If the image has no alpha channel this flag has no effect.
`Qt::NoFormatConversion` | `0x00000200` | Don't do any format conversions on the image. Can be useful when converting a QImage to a QPixmap for a one-time rendering operation for example. Note that a QPixmap not in the preferred format will be much slower as a paint device.

Masks:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::ImhExclusiveInputMask` | `0xffff0000` | This mask yields nonzero if any of the exclusive flags are used.

Note: If several exclusive flags are OR-ed together, the resulting character set will consist of the union of the specified sets. For instance specifying `ImhNumbersOnly` and `ImhUppercaseOnly` would yield a set consisting of numbers and uppercase letters.

The InputMethodHints type is a typedef for QFlags<InputMethodHint>. It stores an OR combination of InputMethodHint values.

### enum Qt::ItemDataRole

Each item in the model has a set of data elements associated with it, each with its own role. The roles are used by the view to indicate to the model which type of data it needs. Custom models should return data in these types.

The general purpose roles (and the associated types) are:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::DisplayRole` | `0` | The key data to be rendered in the form of text. (QString)
`Qt::DecorationRole` | `1` | The data to be rendered as a decoration in the form of an icon. (QColor, QIcon or QPixmap)

`Qt::StatusTipRole` | `4` | The data displayed in the status bar. (QString)
`Qt::WhatsThisRole` | `5` | The data displayed for the item in "What's This?" mode. (QString)
`Qt::SizeHintRole` | `13` | The size hint for the item that will be supplied to views. (QSize)

Roles describing appearance and meta data (with associated types):

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::FontRole` | `6` | The font used for items rendered with the default delegate. (QFont)
`Qt::TextAlignmentRole` | `7` | The alignment of the text for items rendered with the default delegate. (Qt::Alignment)
`Qt::BackgroundRole` | `8` | The background brush used for items rendered with the default delegate. (QBrush)
`Qt::BackgroundColorRole` | `BackgroundRole` | This role is obsolete. Use BackgroundRole instead.
`Qt::ForegroundRole` | `9` | The foreground brush (text color, typically) used for items rendered with the default delegate. (QBrush)
`Qt::TextColorRole` | `ForegroundRole` | This role is obsolete. Use ForegroundRole instead.
`Qt::CheckStateRole` | `10` | This role is used to obtain the checked state of an item. (Qt::CheckState)
`Qt::InitialSortOrderRole` | `14` | This role is used to obtain the initial sort order of a header view section. (Qt::SortOrder). This role was introduced in Qt 4.8.

Accessibility roles (with associated types):

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::AccessibleTextRole` | `11` | The text to be used by accessibility extensions and plugins, such as screen readers. (QString)
`Qt::AccessibleDescriptionRole` | `12` | A description of the item for accessibility purposes. (QString)

User roles:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::UserRole` | `0x0100` | The first role that can be used for application-specific purposes.

For user roles, it is up to the developer to decide which types to use and ensure that components use the correct types when accessing and setting data.

### enum Qt::ItemFlag
flags Qt::ItemFlags

This enum describes the properties of an item:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::NoItemFlags` | `0` | It does not have any properties set.
`Qt::ItemIsSelectable` | `1` | It can be selected.
`Qt::ItemIsEditable` | `2` | It can be edited.
`Qt::ItemIsDragEnabled` | `4` | It can be dragged.
`Qt::ItemIsDropEnabled` | `8` | It can be used as a drop target.
`Qt::ItemIsUserCheckable` | `16` | It can be checked or unchecked by the user.
`Qt::ItemIsEnabled` | `32` | The user can interact with the item.
`Qt::ItemIsAutoTristate` | `64` | The item's state depends on the state of its children. This enables automatic management of the state of parent items in QTreeWidget (checked if all children are checked, unchecked if all children are unchecked, or partially checked if only some children are checked).
`Qt::ItemIsTristate` | `ItemIsAutoTristate` | This enum value is deprecated. Use Qt::ItemIsAutoTristate instead.
`Qt::ItemNeverHasChildren` | `128` | The item never has child items. This is used for optimization purposes only.
`Qt::ItemIsUserTristate` | `256` | The user can cycle through three separate states. This value was added in Qt 5.5.

Note that checkable items need to be given both a suitable set of flags and an initial state, indicating whether the item is checked or not. This is handled automatically for model/view components, but needs to be explicitly set for instances of QListWidgetItem, QTableWidgetItem, and QTreeWidgetItem.

Note that it is undefined behavior to reimplement QAbstractItemModel::hasChildren to return true for an index if that index has the Qt::ItemNeverHasChildren flag set.

The ItemFlags type is a typedef for QFlags<ItemFlag>. It stores an OR combination of ItemFlag values.

See also QAbstractItemModel.

### enum Qt::ItemSelectionMode

This enum is used in QGraphicsItem, QGraphicsScene and QGraphicsView to specify how items are selected, or how to determine if shapes and items collide.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::ContainsItemShape` | `0x0` | The output list contains only items whose shape is fully contained inside the selection area. Items that intersect with the area's outline are not included.
`Qt::IntersectsItemShape` | `0x1` | The output list contains both items whose shape is fully contained inside the selection area, and items that intersect with the area's outline. This is a common mode for rubber band selection.
`Qt::ContainsItemBoundingRect` | `0x2` | The output list contains only items whose bounding rectangle is fully contained inside the selection area. Items that intersect with the area's outline are not included.
`Qt::IntersectsItemBoundingRect` | `0x3` | The output list contains both items whose bounding rectangle is fully contained inside the selection area, and items that intersect with the area's outline. This method is commonly used for determining areas that need redrawing.

See also QGraphicsScene::items(), QGraphicsScene::collidingItems(), QGraphicsView::items(), QGraphicsItem::collidesWithItem(), and QGraphicsItem::collidesWithPath().

### enum Qt::KeyboardModifier
flags Qt::KeyboardModifiers

This enum describes the modifier keys.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::NoModifier` | `0x00000000` | No modifier key is pressed.
`Qt::ShiftModifier` | `0x02000000` | A Shift key on the keyboard is pressed.
`Qt::ControlModifier` | `0x04000000` | A Ctrl key on the keyboard is pressed.
`Qt::AltModifier` | `0x08000000` | An Alt key on the keyboard is pressed.
`Qt::MetaModifier` | `0x10000000` | A Meta key on the keyboard is pressed.
`Qt::KeypadModifier` | `0x20000000` | A keypad button is pressed.
`Qt::GroupSwitchModifier` | `0x40000000` | X11 only (unless activated on Windows by a command line argument). A Mode_switch key on the keyboard is pressed.

Note: On macOS, the `ControlModifier` value corresponds to the Command keys on the keyboard, and the `MetaModifier` value corresponds to the Control keys. The `KeypadModifier` value will also be set when an arrow key is pressed as the arrow keys are considered part of the keypad.

Note: On Windows Keyboards, Qt::MetaModifier and Qt::Key_Meta are mapped to the Windows key.

The KeyboardModifiers type is a typedef for QFlags<KeyboardModifier>. It stores an OR combination of KeyboardModifier values.

See also MouseButton and Modifier.

### enum Qt::LayoutDirection

Specifies the direction of Qt's layouts and text handling.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::LeftToRight` | `0` | Left-to-right layout.
`Qt::RightToLeft` | `1` | Right-to-left layout.
`Qt::LayoutDirectionAuto` | `2` | Automatic layout.

Right-to-left layouts are necessary for certain languages, notably Arabic and Hebrew.

LayoutDirectionAuto serves two purposes. When used in conjunction with widgets and layouts, it will imply to use the layout direction set on the parent widget or QApplication. This has the same effect as QWidget::unsetLayoutDirection().

When LayoutDirectionAuto is used in conjunction with text layouting, it will imply that the text directionality is determined from the content of the string to be layouted.

See also QGuiApplication::setLayoutDirection(), QWidget::setLayoutDirection(), QTextOption::setTextDirection(), and QString::isRightToLeft().

### enum Qt::MaskMode

This enum specifies the behavior of the QPixmap::createMaskFromColor() and QImage::createMaskFromColor() functions.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::MaskInColor` | `0` | Creates a mask where all pixels matching the given color are opaque.
`Qt::MaskOutColor` | `1` | Creates a mask where all pixels matching the given color are transparent.

### enum Qt::MatchFlag
flags Qt::MatchFlags

This enum describes the type of matches that can be used when searching for items in a model.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::MatchExactly` | `0` | Performs QVariant-based matching.
`Qt::MatchFixedString` | `8` | Performs string-based matching. String-based comparisons are case-insensitive unless the `MatchCaseSensitive` flag is also specified.
`Qt::MatchContains` | `1` | The search term is contained in the item.
`Qt::MatchStartsWith` | `2` | The search term matches the start of the item.
`Qt::MatchEndsWith` | `3` | The search term matches the end of the item.
`Qt::MatchCaseSensitive` | `16` | The search is case sensitive.
`Qt::MatchRegExp` | `4` | Performs string-based matching using a regular expression as the search term. Uses the deprecated QRegExp class. This enum value is deprecated since Qt 5.15.

`Qt::MatchRegularExpression`

`9`

Performs string-based matching using a regular expression as the search term. Uses QRegularExpression. When using this flag, a QRegularExpression object can be passed as parameter and will directly be used to perform the search. The case sensitivity flag will be ignored as the QRegularExpression object is expected to be fully configured. This enum value was added in Qt 5.15.

`Qt::MatchWildcard` | `5` | Performs string-based matching using a string with wildcards as the search term.
`Qt::MatchWrap` | `32` | Perform a search that wraps around, so that when the search reaches the last item in the model, it begins again at the first item and continues until all items have been examined.
`Qt::MatchRecursive` | `64` | Searches the entire hierarchy.

Note: Qt::MatchExactly, Qt::MatchContains, Qt::MatchStartsWith, Qt::MatchEndsWith, Qt::MatchRegularExpression, Qt::MatchWildcard, and Qt::MatchFixedString are mutually exclusive. The behavior achieved by setting several of them in a Qt::MatchFlags argument is undefined.

The MatchFlags type is a typedef for QFlags<MatchFlag>. It stores an OR combination of MatchFlag values.

See also QString::compare(), QRegExp, and QRegularExpression.

### enum Qt::Modifier

This enum provides shorter names for the keyboard modifier keys supported by Qt.

Note: On macOS, the `CTRL` value corresponds to the Command keys on the keyboard, and the `META` value corresponds to the Control keys.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::SHIFT` | `Qt::ShiftModifier` | The Shift keys provided on all standard keyboards.
`Qt::META` | `Qt::MetaModifier` | The Meta keys.
`Qt::CTRL` | `Qt::ControlModifier` | The Ctrl keys.
`Qt::ALT` | `Qt::AltModifier` | The normal Alt keys, but not keys like AltGr.
`Qt::UNICODE_ACCEL` | `0x00000000` | The shortcut is specified as a Unicode code point, not as a Qt Key.

See also KeyboardModifier and MouseButton.

### enum Qt::MouseButton
flags Qt::MouseButtons

This enum type describes the different mouse buttons.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::NoButton` | `0x00000000` | The button state does not refer to any button (see QMouseEvent::button()).
`Qt::AllButtons` | `0x07ffffff` | This value corresponds to a mask of all possible mouse buttons. Use to set the 'acceptedButtons' property of a MouseArea to accept ALL mouse buttons.
`Qt::LeftButton` | `0x00000001` | The left button is pressed, or an event refers to the left button. (The left button may be the right button on left-handed mice.)
`Qt::RightButton` | `0x00000002` | The right button.
`Qt::MiddleButton` | `0x00000004` | The middle button.
`Qt::BackButton` | `0x00000008` | The 'Back' button. (Typically present on the 'thumb' side of a mouse with extra buttons. This is NOT the tilt wheel.)

`Qt::TextDontPrint` | `0x4000` | Treat this text as "hidden" and don't print it.
`Qt::TextIncludeTrailingSpaces` | `0x08000000` | When this option is set, QTextLine::naturalTextWidth() and QTextLine::naturalTextRect() will return a value that includes the width of trailing spaces in the text; otherwise this width is excluded.
`Qt::TextJustificationForced` | `0x10000` | Ensures that text lines are justified.

You can use as many modifier flags as you want, except that Qt::TextSingleLine and Qt::TextWordWrap cannot be combined.

Flags that are inappropriate for a given use are generally ignored.

### enum Qt::TextFormat

This enum is used in widgets that can display both plain text and rich text, for example QLabel. It is used for deciding whether a text string should be interpreted as one or the other. This is normally done by passing one of the enum values to a QTextEdit::setTextFormat() function.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::PlainText` | `0` | The text string is interpreted as a plain text string.
`Qt::RichText` | `1` | The text string is interpreted as a rich text string. See Supported HTML Subset for the definition of rich text.
`Qt::AutoText` | `2` | The text string is interpreted as for Qt::RichText if Qt::mightBeRichText() returns `true`, otherwise as Qt::PlainText.
`Qt::MarkdownText` | `3` | The text string is interpreted as Markdown-formatted text. This enum value was added in Qt 5.14.

### enum Qt::TextInteractionFlag
flags Qt::TextInteractionFlags

This enum specifies how a text displaying widget reacts to user input.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::NoTextInteraction` | `0` | No interaction with the text is possible.
`Qt::TextSelectableByMouse` | `1` | Text can be selected with the mouse and copied to the clipboard using a context menu or standard keyboard shortcuts.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::StretchTile` | `0` | Scale the image to fit to the available area.
`Qt::RepeatTile` | `1` | Repeat the image until there is no more space. May crop the last image.

### enum Qt::TimeSpec

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::LocalTime` | `0` | Local time, controlled by a system time-zone setting.
`Qt::UTC` | `1` | Coordinated Universal Time.
`Qt::OffsetFromUTC` | `2` | An offset in seconds from Coordinated Universal Time.
`Qt::TimeZone` | `3` | A named time zone.

Both LocalTime and TimeZone will take care of transitions, such as the start and end of daylight-saving time. UTC is the standard time relative to which time-zones are usually specified: Greenwich Mean Time has zero offset from it. Neither UTC nor OffsetFromUTC has any transitions.

Note: After a change to the system time-zone setting, the behavior of LocalTime-based QDateTime objects created before the change is undefined: QDateTime may have cached data that the change invalidates. (This is not triggered by transitions of the system time-zone.) In long-running processes, updates to the system's time-zone data (e.g. when politicians change the rules for a zone) may likewise lead to conflicts between the updated time-zone information and data cached by QDateTime objects created before the update, using either LocalTime or TimeZone.

### enum Qt::TimerType

The timer type indicates how accurate a timer can be.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::PreciseTimer` | `0` | Precise timers try to keep millisecond accuracy
`Qt::CoarseTimer` | `1` | Coarse timers try to keep accuracy within 5% of the desired interval
`Qt::VeryCoarseTimer` | `2` | Very coarse timers only keep full second accuracy

On UNIX (including Linux, macOS, and iOS), Qt will keep millisecond accuracy for Qt::PreciseTimer. For Qt::CoarseTimer, the interval will be adjusted up to 5% to align the timer with other timers that are expected to fire at or around the same time. The objective is to make most timers wake up at the same time, thereby reducing CPU wakeups and power consumption.

On Windows, Qt will use Windows's Multimedia timer facility (if available) for Qt::PreciseTimer and normal Windows timers for Qt::CoarseTimer and Qt::VeryCoarseTimer.

On all platforms, the interval for Qt::VeryCoarseTimer is rounded to the nearest full second (e.g. an interval of 23500ms will be rounded to 24000ms, and 20300ms to 20000ms).

### enum Qt::ToolBarArea

`Qt::TouchPointStationary` | `0x04` | The touch point did not move.
`Qt::TouchPointReleased` | `0x08` | The touch point was released.

This enum was introduced or modified in Qt 4.6.

The TouchPointStates type is a typedef for QFlags<TouchPointState>. It stores an OR combination of TouchPointState values.

### enum Qt::TransformationMode

This enum type defines whether image transformations (e.g., scaling) should be smooth or not.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::FastTransformation` | `0` | The transformation is performed quickly, with no smoothing.
`Qt::SmoothTransformation` | `1` | The resulting image is transformed using bilinear filtering.

See also QImage::scaled().

### enum Qt::UIEffect

This enum describes the available UI effects.

By default, Qt will try to use the platform specific desktop settings for each effect. Use the QApplication::setDesktopSettingsAware() function (passing `false` as argument) to prevent this, and the QApplication::setEffectEnabled() to enable or disable a particular effect.

Note that all effects are disabled on screens running at less than 16-bit color depth.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::UI_AnimateMenu` | `1` | Show animated menus.
`Qt::UI_FadeMenu` | `2` | Show faded menus.

`Qt::WhiteSpacePre` | `1` | A preformatted text mode in which whitespace is reproduced exactly.
`Qt::WhiteSpaceNoWrap` | `2` |

### enum Qt::WidgetAttribute

This enum type is used to specify various widget attributes. Attributes are set and cleared with QWidget::setAttribute(), and queried with QWidget::testAttribute(), although some have special convenience functions which are mentioned below.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::WA_AcceptDrops` | `78` | Allows data from drag and drop operations to be dropped onto the widget (see QWidget::setAcceptDrops()).
`Qt::WA_AlwaysShowToolTips` | `84` | Enables tooltips for inactive windows.
`Qt::WA_ContentsPropagated` | `3` | This flag is superfluous and obsolete; it no longer has any effect. Since Qt 4.1, all widgets that do not set WA_PaintOnScreen propagate their contents.
`Qt::WA_CustomWhatsThis` | `47` | Indicates that the widget wants to continue operating normally in "What's This?" mode. This is set by the widget's author.
`Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose` | `55` | Makes Qt delete this widget when the widget has accepted the close event (see QWidget::closeEvent()).
`Qt::WA_Disabled` | `0` | Indicates that the widget is disabled, i.e. it does not receive any mouse or keyboard events. There is also a getter functions QWidget::isEnabled(). This is set/cleared by the Qt kernel.
`Qt::WA_DontShowOnScreen` | `103` | Indicates that the widget is hidden or is not a part of the viewable Desktop.
`Qt::WA_ForceDisabled` | `32` | Indicates that the widget is explicitly disabled, i.e. it will remain disabled even when all its ancestors are set to the enabled state. This implies WA_Disabled. This is set/cleared by QWidget::setEnabled() and QWidget::setDisabled().
`Qt::WA_ForceUpdatesDisabled` | `59` | Indicates that updates are explicitly disabled for the widget; i.e. it will remain disabled even when all its ancestors are set to the updates-enabled state. This implies WA_UpdatesDisabled. This is set/cleared by QWidget::setUpdatesEnabled().
`Qt::WA_GroupLeader` | `72` | This attribute has been deprecated. Use QWidget::windowModality instead.
`Qt::WA_Hover` | `74` | Forces Qt to generate paint events when the mouse enters or leaves the widget. This feature is typically used when implementing custom styles; see the Styles example for details.
`Qt::WA_InputMethodEnabled` | `14` | Enables input methods for Asian languages. Must be set when creating custom text editing widgets.
`Qt::WA_KeyboardFocusChange` | `77` | Set on a toplevel window when the users changes focus with the keyboard (tab, backtab, or shortcut).

`Qt::WA_KeyCompression`

`33`

Enables key event compression if set, and disables it if not set. By default key compression is off, so widgets receive one key press event for each key press (or more, since autorepeat is usually on). If you turn it on and your program doesn't keep up with key input, Qt may try to compress key events so that more than one character can be processed in each event. For example, a word processor widget might receive 2, 3 or more characters in each QKeyEvent::text(), if the layout recalculation takes too long for the CPU. If a widget supports multiple character unicode input, it is always safe to turn the compression on. Qt performs key event compression only for printable characters. Qt::Modifier keys, cursor movement keys, function keys and miscellaneous action keys (e.g. Escape, Enter, Backspace, PrintScreen) will stop key event compression, even if there are more compressible key events available. Platforms other than Mac and X11 do not support this compression, in which case turning it on will have no effect. This is set/cleared by the widget's author.

`Qt::WA_LayoutOnEntireRect` | `48` | Indicates that the widget wants QLayout to operate on the entire QWidget::rect(), not only on QWidget::contentsRect(). This is set by the widget's author.
`Qt::WA_LayoutUsesWidgetRect` | `92` | Ignore the layout item rect from the style when laying out this widget with QLayout.
`Qt::WA_MacNoClickThrough` | `12` | This value is obsolete and has no effect.
`Qt::WA_MacOpaqueSizeGrip` | `85` | Indicates that the native size grip should be opaque instead of transparent (the default). This attribute is only applicable to macOS and is set by the widget's author.
`Qt::WA_MacShowFocusRect` | `88` | Indicates that this widget should get a QFocusFrame around it. Some widgets draw their own focus halo regardless of this attribute. Not that the QWidget::focusPolicy also plays the main role in whether something is given focus or not, this only controls whether or not this gets the focus frame. This attribute is only applicable to macOS.
`Qt::WA_MacNormalSize` | `89` | Indicates the widget should have the normal size for widgets in macOS. This attribute is only applicable to macOS.
`Qt::WA_MacSmallSize` | `90` | Indicates the widget should have the small size for widgets in macOS. This attribute is only applicable to macOS.
`Qt::WA_MacMiniSize` | `91` | Indicates the widget should have the mini size for widgets in macOS. This attribute is only applicable to macOS.
`Qt::WA_MacVariableSize` | `102` | Indicates the widget can choose between alternative sizes for widgets to avoid clipping. This attribute is only applicable to macOS.
`Qt::WA_MacBrushedMetal` | `46` | This value is obsolete and has no effect.
`Qt::WA_Mapped` | `11` | Indicates that the widget is mapped on screen. This is set/cleared by the Qt kernel.
`Qt::WA_MouseNoMask` | `71` | Makes the widget receive mouse events for the entire widget regardless of the currently set mask, overriding QWidget::setMask(). This is not applicable for top-level windows.
`Qt::WA_MouseTracking` | `2` | Indicates that the widget has mouse tracking enabled. See QWidget::mouseTracking.
`Qt::WA_Moved` | `43` | Indicates that the widget has an explicit position. This is set/cleared by QWidget::move() and by QWidget::setGeometry().
`Qt::WA_MSWindowsUseDirect3D` | `94` | This value is obsolete and has no effect.
`Qt::WA_NoBackground` | `WA_OpaquePaintEvent` | This value is obsolete. Use WA_OpaquePaintEvent instead.
`Qt::WA_NoChildEventsForParent` | `58` | Indicates that the widget does not want ChildAdded or ChildRemoved events sent to its parent. This is rarely necessary but can help to avoid automatic insertion widgets like splitters and layouts. This is set by a widget's author.
`Qt::WA_NoChildEventsFromChildren` | `39` | Indicates that the widget does not want to receive ChildAdded or ChildRemoved events sent from its children. This is set by a widget's author.
`Qt::WA_NoMouseReplay` | `54` | Used for pop-up widgets. Indicates that the most recent mouse press event should not be replayed when the pop-up widget closes. The flag is set by the widget's author and cleared by the Qt kernel every time the widget receives a new mouse event.
`Qt::WA_NoMousePropagation` | `73` | Prohibits mouse events from being propagated to the widget's parent. This attribute is disabled by default.
`Qt::WA_TransparentForMouseEvents` | `51` | When enabled, this attribute disables the delivery of mouse events to the widget and its children. Mouse events are delivered to other widgets as if the widget and its children were not present in the widget hierarchy; mouse clicks and other events effectively "pass through" them. This attribute is disabled by default.

`Qt::WA_NoSystemBackground`

`9`

Indicates that the widget has no background, i.e. when the widget receives paint events, the background is not automatically repainted. Note: Unlike WA_OpaquePaintEvent, newly exposed areas are never filled with the background (e.g., after showing a window for the first time the user can see "through" it until the application processes the paint events). This flag is set or cleared by the widget's author.

`Qt::WA_OpaquePaintEvent`

`4`

Indicates that the widget paints all its pixels when it receives a paint event. Thus, it is not required for operations like updating, resizing, scrolling and focus changes to erase the widget before generating paint events. The use of WA_OpaquePaintEvent provides a small optimization by helping to reduce flicker on systems that do not support double buffering and avoiding computational cycles necessary to erase the background prior to painting. Note: Unlike WA_NoSystemBackground, WA_OpaquePaintEvent makes an effort to avoid transparent window backgrounds. This flag is set or cleared by the widget's author.

`Qt::WA_OutsideWSRange` | `49` | Indicates that the widget is outside the valid range of the window system's coordinate system. A widget outside the valid range cannot be mapped on screen. This is set/cleared by the Qt kernel.

`Qt::WA_PaintOnScreen`

`8`

Indicates that the widget wants to draw directly onto the screen. Widgets with this attribute set do not participate in composition management, i.e. they cannot be semi-transparent or shine through semi-transparent overlapping widgets. Note: This flag is only supported on X11 and it disables double buffering. On Qt for Embedded Linux, the flag only works when set on a top-level widget and it relies on support from the active screen driver. This flag is set or cleared by the widget's author. To render outside of Qt's paint system, e.g., if you require native painting primitives, you need to reimplement QWidget::paintEngine() to return 0 and set this flag.

`Qt::WA_PaintUnclipped` | `52` | Makes all painters operating on this widget unclipped. Children of this widget or other widgets in front of it do not clip the area the painter can paint on. This flag is only supported for widgets with the WA_PaintOnScreen flag set. The preferred way to do this in a cross platform way is to create a transparent widget that lies in front of the other widgets.
`Qt::WA_PendingMoveEvent` | `34` | Indicates that a move event is pending, e.g., when a hidden widget was moved. This flag is set or cleared by the Qt kernel.
`Qt::WA_PendingResizeEvent` | `35` | Indicates that a resize event is pending, e.g., when a hidden widget was resized. This flag is set or cleared by the Qt kernel.
`Qt::WA_QuitOnClose` | `76` | Makes Qt quit the application when the last widget with the attribute set has accepted closeEvent(). This behavior can be modified with the QApplication::quitOnLastWindowClosed property. By default this attribute is set for all widgets of type Qt::Window.
`Qt::WA_Resized` | `42` | Indicates that the widget has an explicit size. This flag is set or cleared by QWidget::resize() and QWidget::setGeometry().
`Qt::WA_RightToLeft` | `56` | Indicates that the layout direction for the widget is right to left.
`Qt::WA_SetCursor` | `38` | Indicates that the widget has a cursor of its own. This flag is set or cleared by QWidget::setCursor() and QWidget::unsetCursor().
`Qt::WA_SetFont` | `37` | Indicates that the widget has a font of its own. This flag is set or cleared by QWidget::setFont().
`Qt::WA_SetPalette` | `36` | Indicates that the widget has a palette of its own. This flag is set or cleared by QWidget::setPalette().
`Qt::WA_SetStyle` | `86` | Indicates that the widget has a style of its own. This flag is set or cleared by QWidget::setStyle().
`Qt::WA_ShowModal` | `70` | This attribute has been deprecated. Use QWidget::windowModality instead.
`Qt::WA_StaticContents` | `5` | Indicates that the widget contents are north-west aligned and static. On resize, such a widget will receive paint events only for parts of itself that are newly visible. This flag is set or cleared by the widget's author.
`Qt::WA_StyleSheet` | `97` | Indicates that the widget is styled using a style sheet. WA_StyleSheet is set whenever a widget is subject to a style sheet, even if the style sheet did not affect the widget appearance.
`Qt::WA_StyleSheetTarget` | `131` | Indicates that the widget appearance was modified by a style sheet. WA_StyleSheet will also be set. This value was introduced in Qt 5.12.
`Qt::WA_TabletTracking` | `129` | Indicates that the widget has tablet tracking enabled. See QWidget::tabletTracking.

`Qt::WA_TranslucentBackground`

`120`

Indicates that the widget should have a translucent background, i.e., any non-opaque regions of the widgets will be translucent because the widget will have an alpha channel. Setting this flag causes WA_NoSystemBackground to be set. On Windows the widget also needs the Qt::FramelessWindowHint window flag to be set. This flag is set or cleared by the widget's author.

`Qt::WA_UnderMouse` | `1` | Indicates that the widget is under the mouse cursor. The value is not updated correctly during drag and drop operations. There is also a getter function, QWidget::underMouse(). This flag is set or cleared by the Qt kernel.
`Qt::WA_UpdatesDisabled` | `10` | Indicates that updates are blocked (including the system background). This flag is set or cleared by the Qt kernel. Warning: This flag must never be set or cleared by the widget's author.
`Qt::WA_WindowModified` | `41` | Indicates that the window is marked as modified. On some platforms this flag will do nothing, on others (including macOS and Windows) the window will take a modified appearance. This flag is set or cleared by QWidget::setWindowModified().
`Qt::WA_WindowPropagation` | `80` | Makes a toplevel window inherit font, palette and locale from its parent.
`Qt::WA_MacAlwaysShowToolWindow` | `96` | On macOS, show the tool window even when the application is not active. By default, all tool windows are hidden when the application is inactive.
`Qt::WA_SetLocale` | `87` | Indicates the locale should be taken into consideration in the widget.
`Qt::WA_StyledBackground` | `93` | Indicates the widget should be drawn using a styled background.
`Qt::WA_ShowWithoutActivating` | `98` | Show the widget without making it active.
`Qt::WA_NativeWindow` | `100` | Indicates that a native window is created for the widget. Enabling this flag will also force a native window for the widget's ancestors unless Qt::WA_DontCreateNativeAncestors is set.
`Qt::WA_DontCreateNativeAncestors` | `101` | Indicates that the widget's ancestors are kept non-native even though the widget itself is native.
`Qt::WA_X11NetWmWindowTypeDesktop` | `104` | Adds _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DESKTOP to the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE X11 window property. See http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/ for more details. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms.
`Qt::WA_X11NetWmWindowTypeDock` | `105` | Adds _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DOCK to the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE X11 window property. See http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/ for more details. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms.
`Qt::WA_X11NetWmWindowTypeToolBar` | `106` | Adds _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_TOOLBAR to the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE X11 window property. See http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/ for more details. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms. Note: Qt automatically sets this attribute for QToolBar.
`Qt::WA_X11NetWmWindowTypeMenu` | `107` | Adds _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_MENU to the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE X11 window property. See http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/ for more details. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms. Note: Qt automatically sets this attribute for QMenu when torn-off.
`Qt::WA_X11NetWmWindowTypeUtility` | `108` | Adds _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_UTILITY to the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE X11 window property. See http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/ for more details. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms. Note: Qt automatically sets this attribute for the Qt::Tool window type.
`Qt::WA_X11NetWmWindowTypeSplash` | `109` | Adds _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_SPLASH to the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE X11 window property. See http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/ for more details. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms. Note: Qt automatically sets this attribute for the Qt::SplashScreen window type.
`Qt::WA_X11NetWmWindowTypeDialog` | `110` | Adds _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DIALOG to the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE X11 window property. See http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/ for more details. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms. Note: Qt automatically sets this attribute for the Qt::Dialog and Qt::Sheet window types.
`Qt::WA_X11NetWmWindowTypeDropDownMenu` | `111` | Adds _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DROPDOWN_MENU to the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE X11 window property. See http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/ for more details. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms. Note: Qt automatically sets this attribute for QMenu objects added to a QMenuBar.
`Qt::WA_X11NetWmWindowTypePopupMenu` | `112` | Adds _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_POPUP_MENU to the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE X11 window property. See http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/ for more details. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms. Note: Qt automatically sets this attribute for QMenu.
`Qt::WA_X11NetWmWindowTypeToolTip` | `113` | Adds _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_TOOLTIP to the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE X11 window property. See http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/ for more details. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms. Note: Qt automatically sets this attribute for the Qt::ToolTip window type.
`Qt::WA_X11NetWmWindowTypeNotification` | `114` | Adds _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_NOTIFICATION to the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE X11 window property. See http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/ for more details. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms.
`Qt::WA_X11NetWmWindowTypeCombo` | `115` | Adds _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_COMBO to the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE X11 window property. See http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/ for more details. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms. Note: Qt automatically sets this attribute for the QComboBox pop-up.
`Qt::WA_X11NetWmWindowTypeDND` | `116` | Adds _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_DND to the window's _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE X11 window property. See http://standards.freedesktop.org/wm-spec/ for more details. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms. Note: Qt automatically sets this attribute on the feedback widget used during a drag.
`Qt::WA_MacFrameworkScaled` | `117` | This value is obsolete and has no effect.
`Qt::WA_AcceptTouchEvents` | `121` | Allows touch events (see QTouchEvent) to be sent to the widget. Must be set on all widgets that can handle touch events. Without this attribute set, events from a touch device will be sent as mouse events.
`Qt::WA_TouchPadAcceptSingleTouchEvents` | `123` | Allows touchpad single touch events to be sent to the widget.
`Qt::WA_X11DoNotAcceptFocus` | `126` | Asks the window manager to not give focus to this top level window. This attribute has no effect on non-X11 platforms.

`Qt::WA_AlwaysStackOnTop`

`128`

Since Qt 5.4, this value forces QOpenGLWidget and QQuickWidget to be drawn last, on top of other widgets. Ignored for other type of widgets. Setting this attribute breaks the stacking order, but allows having a semi-transparent OpenGL widget with other widgets visible underneath. It is strongly recommended to call update() on the widget's top-level window after enabling or disabling this attribute.

`Qt::WA_ContentsMarginsRespectsSafeArea`

`130`

A QWidget respects the safe area margins of a window by incorporating the margins into its contents' margins by default. This means, that a QLayout will use the content area of a widget for its layout, unless the Qt::WA_LayoutOnEntireRect attribute is set. This along with a contents margin of 0 can be used on the actual layout, to allow for example a background image to underlay the status bar and other system areas on an iOS device, while still allowing child widgets of that background to be inset based on the safe area.

### enum Qt::WindowFrameSection

This enum is used to describe parts of a window frame. It is returned by QGraphicsWidget::windowFrameSectionAt() to describe what section of the window frame is under the mouse.

Constant | Value
--- | ---
`Qt::NoSection` | `0`
`Qt::LeftSection` | `1`
`Qt::TopLeftSection` | `2`
`Qt::TopSection` | `3`
`Qt::TopRightSection` | `4`
`Qt::RightSection` | `5`
`Qt::BottomRightSection` | `6`
`Qt::BottomSection` | `7`
`Qt::BottomLeftSection` | `8`
`Qt::TitleBarArea` | `9`

This enum was introduced or modified in Qt 4.4.

See also QGraphicsWidget::windowFrameEvent(), QGraphicsWidget::paintWindowFrame(), and QGraphicsWidget::windowFrameSectionAt().

### enum Qt::WindowModality

This enum specifies the behavior of a modal window. A modal window is one that blocks input to other windows. Note that windows that are children of a modal window are not blocked.

The values are:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::NonModal` | `0` | The window is not modal and does not block input to other windows.
`Qt::WindowModal` | `1` | The window is modal to a single window hierarchy and blocks input to its parent window, all grandparent windows, and all siblings of its parent and grandparent windows.
`Qt::ApplicationModal` | `2` | The window is modal to the application and blocks input to all windows.

See also QWidget::windowModality and QDialog.

### enum Qt::WindowState
flags Qt::WindowStates

This enum type is used to specify the current state of a top-level window.

The states are

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::WindowNoState` | `0x00000000` | The window has no state set (in normal state).
`Qt::WindowMinimized` | `0x00000001` | The window is minimized (i.e. iconified).
`Qt::WindowMaximized` | `0x00000002` | The window is maximized with a frame around it.
`Qt::WindowFullScreen` | `0x00000004` | The window fills the entire screen without any frame around it.
`Qt::WindowActive` | `0x00000008` | The window is the active window, i.e. it has keyboard focus.

The WindowStates type is a typedef for QFlags<WindowState>. It stores an OR combination of WindowState values.

### enum Qt::WindowType
flags Qt::WindowFlags

This enum type is used to specify various window-system properties for the widget. They are fairly unusual but necessary in a few cases. Some of these flags depend on whether the underlying window manager supports them.

The main types are

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::Widget` | `0x00000000` | This is the default type for QWidget. Widgets of this type are child widgets if they have a parent, and independent windows if they have no parent. See also Qt::Window and Qt::SubWindow.
`Qt::Window` | `0x00000001` | Indicates that the widget is a window, usually with a window system frame and a title bar, irrespective of whether the widget has a parent or not. Note that it is not possible to unset this flag if the widget does not have a parent.

`Qt::Dialog`

`0x00000002 | Window`

Indicates that the widget is a window that should be decorated as a dialog (i.e., typically no maximize or minimize buttons in the title bar). This is the default type for QDialog. If you want to use it as a modal dialog, it should be launched from another window, or have a parent and used with the QWidget::windowModality property. If you make it modal, the dialog will prevent other top-level windows in the application from getting any input. We refer to a top-level window that has a parent as a secondary window.

`Qt::Sheet` | `0x00000004 | Window` | Indicates that the window is a sheet on macOS. Since using a sheet implies window modality, the recommended way is to use QWidget::setWindowModality(), or QDialog::open(), instead.
`Qt::Drawer` | `Sheet | Dialog` | Indicates that the widget is a drawer on macOS. This feature is obsolete. Setting the flag has no effect.
`Qt::Popup` | `0x00000008 | Window` | Indicates that the widget is a pop-up top-level window, i.e. that it is modal, but has a window system frame appropriate for pop-up menus.

`Qt::Tool`

`Popup | Dialog`

Indicates that the widget is a tool window. A tool window is often a small window with a smaller than usual title bar and decoration, typically used for collections of tool buttons. If there is a parent, the tool window will always be kept on top of it. If there isn't a parent, you may consider using Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint as well. If the window system supports it, a tool window can be decorated with a somewhat lighter frame. It can also be combined with Qt::FramelessWindowHint. On macOS, tool windows correspond to the NSPanel class of windows. This means that the window lives on a level above normal windows making it impossible to put a normal window on top of it. By default, tool windows will disappear when the application is inactive. This can be controlled by the Qt::WA_MacAlwaysShowToolWindow attribute.

`Qt::ToolTip` | `Popup | Sheet` | Indicates that the widget is a tooltip. This is used internally to implement tooltips.
`Qt::SplashScreen` | `ToolTip | Dialog` | Indicates that the window is a splash screen. This is the default type for QSplashScreen.
`Qt::Desktop` | `0x00000010 | Window` | Indicates that this widget is the desktop. This is the type for QDesktopWidget.
`Qt::SubWindow` | `0x00000012` | Indicates that this widget is a sub-window, such as a QMdiSubWindow widget.
`Qt::ForeignWindow` | `0x00000020 | Window` | Indicates that this window object is a handle representing a native platform window created by another process or by manually using native code.
`Qt::CoverWindow` | `0x00000040 | Window` | Indicates that the window represents a cover window, which is shown when the application is minimized on some platforms.

There are also a number of flags which you can use to customize the appearance of top-level windows. These have no effect on other windows:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::MSWindowsFixedSizeDialogHint` | `0x00000100` | Gives the window a thin dialog border on Windows. This style is traditionally used for fixed-size dialogs.

Note: The use of this flag is not recommended in multi-monitor environments. This is because the system will enforce that the window maintains its native size when moving it across screens. This is particularly undesirable when using monitors with different resolutions.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::MSWindowsOwnDC` | `0x00000200` | Gives the window its own display context on Windows.
`Qt::BypassWindowManagerHint` | `0x00000400` | This flag can be used to indicate to the platform plugin that "all" window manager protocols should be disabled. This flag will behave different depending on what operating system the application is running on and what window manager is running. The flag can be used to get a native window with no configuration set.
`Qt::X11BypassWindowManagerHint` | `BypassWindowManagerHint` | Bypass the window manager completely. This results in a borderless window that is not managed at all (i.e., no keyboard input unless you call QWidget::activateWindow() manually).
`Qt::FramelessWindowHint` | `0x00000800` | Produces a borderless window. The user cannot move or resize a borderless window via the window system. On X11, the result of the flag is dependent on the window manager and its ability to understand Motif and/or NETWM hints. Most existing modern window managers can handle this.
`Qt::NoDropShadowWindowHint` | `0x40000000` | Disables window drop shadow on supporting platforms.

The `CustomizeWindowHint` flag is used to enable customization of the window controls. This flag must be set to allow the `WindowTitleHint`, `WindowSystemMenuHint`, `WindowMinimizeButtonHint`, `WindowMaximizeButtonHint` and `WindowCloseButtonHint` flags to be changed.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::CustomizeWindowHint` | `0x02000000` | Turns off the default window title hints.
`Qt::WindowTitleHint` | `0x00001000` | Gives the window a title bar.
`Qt::WindowSystemMenuHint` | `0x00002000` | Adds a window system menu, and possibly a close button (for example on Mac). If you need to hide or show a close button, it is more portable to use `WindowCloseButtonHint`.
`Qt::WindowMinimizeButtonHint` | `0x00004000` | Adds a minimize button. On some platforms this implies Qt::WindowSystemMenuHint for it to work.
`Qt::WindowMaximizeButtonHint` | `0x00008000` | Adds a maximize button. On some platforms this implies Qt::WindowSystemMenuHint for it to work.
`Qt::WindowMinMaxButtonsHint` | `WindowMinimizeButtonHint | WindowMaximizeButtonHint` | Adds a minimize and a maximize button. On some platforms this implies Qt::WindowSystemMenuHint for it to work.
`Qt::WindowCloseButtonHint` | `0x08000000` | Adds a close button. On some platforms this implies Qt::WindowSystemMenuHint for it to work.
`Qt::WindowContextHelpButtonHint` | `0x00010000` | Adds a context help button to dialogs. On some platforms this implies Qt::WindowSystemMenuHint for it to work.
`Qt::MacWindowToolBarButtonHint` | `0x10000000` | On macOS adds a tool bar button (i.e., the oblong button that is on the top right of windows that have toolbars).
`Qt::WindowFullscreenButtonHint` | `0x80000000` | On macOS adds a fullscreen button.
`Qt::BypassGraphicsProxyWidget` | `0x20000000` | Prevents the window and its children from automatically embedding themselves into a QGraphicsProxyWidget if the parent widget is already embedded. You can set this flag if you want your widget to always be a toplevel widget on the desktop, regardless of whether the parent widget is embedded in a scene or not.
`Qt::WindowShadeButtonHint` | `0x00020000` | Adds a shade button in place of the minimize button if the underlying window manager supports it.
`Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint` | `0x00040000` | Informs the window system that the window should stay on top of all other windows. Note that on some window managers on X11 you also have to pass Qt::X11BypassWindowManagerHint for this flag to work correctly.
`Qt::WindowStaysOnBottomHint` | `0x04000000` | Informs the window system that the window should stay on bottom of all other windows.

Note: On X11, this hint will work only in window managers that support _NET_WM_STATE_BELOW atom. If a window always on the bottom has a parent, the parent will also be left on the bottom. This window hint is currently not implemented for macOS.

Note: On Windows, this will work only for frameless or full-screen windows.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`Qt::WindowTransparentForInput` | `0x00080000` | Informs the window system that this window is used only for output (displaying something) and does not take input. Therefore input events should pass through as if it wasn't there.
`Qt::WindowOverridesSystemGestures` | `0x00100000` | Informs the window system that this window implements its own set of gestures and that system level gestures, like for instance three-finger desktop switching, should be disabled.
`Qt::WindowDoesNotAcceptFocus` | `0x00200000` | Informs the window system that this window should not receive the input focus.

`Qt::MaximizeUsingFullscreenGeometryHint`

`0x00400000`

Informs the window system that when maximizing the window it should use as much of the available screen geometry as possible, including areas that may be covered by system UI such as status bars or application launchers. This may result in the window being placed under these system UIs, but does not guarantee it, depending on whether or not the platform supports it. When the flag is enabled the user is responsible for taking QScreen::availableGeometry() into account, so that any UI elements in the application that require user interaction are not covered by system UI.

`Qt::WindowType_Mask` | `0x000000ff` | A mask for extracting the window type part of the window flags.

The WindowFlags type is a typedef for QFlags<WindowType>. It stores an OR combination of WindowType values.

See also QWidget::windowFlags and Window Flags Example.
