Detailed DescriptionThe QButtonGroup class provides a container to organize groups of button widgets. QButtonGroup provides an abstract container into which button widgets can be placed. It does not provide a visual representation of this container (see QGroupBox for a container widget), but instead manages the states of each of the buttons in the group. An exclusive button group switches off all checkable (toggle) buttons except the one that was clicked. By default, a button group is exclusive. The buttons in a button group are usually checkable QPushButton's, QCheckBoxes (normally for non-exclusive button groups), or QRadioButtons. If you create an exclusive button group, you should ensure that one of the buttons in the group is initially checked; otherwise, the group will initially be in a state where no buttons are checked. A button is added to the group with addButton(). It can be removed from the group with removeButton(). If the group is exclusive, the currently checked button is available as checkedButton(). If a button is clicked the buttonClicked() signal is emitted. For a checkable button in an exclusive group this means that the button was checked. The list of buttons in the group is returned by buttons(). In addition, QButtonGroup can map between integers and buttons. You can assign an integer id to a button with setId(), and retrieve it with id(). The id of the currently checked button is available with checkedId(), and there is an overloaded signal buttonClicked() which emits the id of the button. The id -1 is reserved by QButtonGroup to mean "no such button". The purpose of the mapping mechanism is to simplify the representation of enum values in a user interface. See also QGroupBox, QPushButton, QCheckBox, and QRadioButton. Property Documentation

Member Function Documentation
QButtonGroup::QButtonGroup(QObject * parent = 0)
Constructs a new, empty button group with the given parent.
See also addButton() and setExclusive().
QButtonGroup::~QButtonGroup()
Destroys the button group.
void QButtonGroup::addButton(QAbstractButton * button, int id = -1)
Adds the given button to the button group. If id is -1, an id will be assigned to the button by this QButtonGroup. Automatically assigned ids are guaranteed to be negative, starting with -2. If you are assigning your own ids, use positive values to avoid conflicts.
See also removeButton() and buttons().
QAbstractButton * QButtonGroup::button(int id) const
Returns the button with the specified id, or 0 if no such button exists.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.1.
void QButtonGroup::buttonClicked(QAbstractButton * button) [signal]
This signal is emitted when the given button is clicked. A button is clicked when it is first pressed and then released, when its shortcut key is typed, or programmatically when QAbstractButton::click() or QAbstractButton::animateClick() is called.
See also checkedButton() and QAbstractButton::clicked().
void QButtonGroup::buttonClicked(int id) [signal]
This signal is emitted when a button with the given id is clicked.
See also checkedButton() and QAbstractButton::clicked().
void QButtonGroup::buttonPressed(QAbstractButton * button) [signal]
This signal is emitted when the given button is pressed down.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.2.
See also QAbstractButton::pressed().
void QButtonGroup::buttonPressed(int id) [signal]
This signal is emitted when a button with the given id is pressed down.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.2.
See also QAbstractButton::pressed().
void QButtonGroup::buttonReleased(QAbstractButton * button) [signal]
This signal is emitted when the given button is released.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.2.
See also QAbstractButton::released().
void QButtonGroup::buttonReleased(int id) [signal]
This signal is emitted when a button with the given id is released.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.2.
See also QAbstractButton::released().
QList<QAbstractButton *> QButtonGroup::buttons() const
Returns the list of this groups's buttons. This may be empty.
See also addButton() and removeButton().
QAbstractButton * QButtonGroup::checkedButton() const
Returns the button group's checked button, or 0 if no buttons are checked.
See also buttonClicked().
int QButtonGroup::checkedId() const
Returns the id of the checkedButton(), or -1 if no button is checked.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.1.
See also setId().
int QButtonGroup::id(QAbstractButton * button) const
Returns the id for the specified button, or -1 if no such button exists.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.1.
See also setId().
void QButtonGroup::removeButton(QAbstractButton * button)
Removes the given button from the button group.
See also addButton() and buttons().
void QButtonGroup::setId(QAbstractButton * button, int id)
Sets the id for the specified button. Note that id can not be -1.
This function was introduced in Qt 4.1.
See also id().
