VolumeSlider Class Reference
(Phonon::VolumeSlider)
[Phonon module]

Detailed Description

The VolumeSlider widget provides a slider that is used to control the volume of an audio output device.

The slider also displays an icon indicating if the volume of the AudioOutput it is connected to is muted. The icon can be removed with setMuteVisible().

It is possible to set the maximum value of the slider. By default, the minimum and maximum values of the slider are 0.0 (no sound) to 1.0 (the maximum volume the audio output can produce).

Here follows a code example:

     Phonon::AudioOutput *audioOutput = new Phonon::AudioOutput(Phonon::MusicCategory);
     Phonon::createPath(mediaObject, audioOutput);

     Phonon::VolumeSlider *volumeSlider = new Phonon::VolumeSlider;
     volumeSlider->setAudioOutput(audioOutput);

The default size is defined by the GUI style.

Access functions:

• QSize iconSize () const
• void setIconSize ( const QSize & size )

maximumVolume : qreal

This property holds the maximum volume that can be set with this slider.

By default the maximum value is 1.0 (100%).

Access functions:

• qreal maximumVolume () const
• void setMaximumVolume ( qreal )

muteVisible : bool

This property holds whether the mute button/icon next to the slider is visible.

By default the mute button/icon is visible.

Access functions:

• bool isMuteVisible () const
• void setMuteVisible ( bool )

orientation : Qt::Orientation

This property holds the orientation of the slider.

The orientation must be Qt::Vertical (the default) or Qt::Horizontal.

Access functions:

• Qt::Orientation orientation () const
• void setOrientation ( Qt::Orientation )

pageStep : int

This property holds the page step.

The larger of two natural steps that a slider provides and typically corresponds to the user pressing PageUp or PageDown.

Defaults to 5 (5% of the voltage).

Access functions:

• int pageStep () const
• void setPageStep ( int milliseconds )

singleStep : int

This property holds the single step.

The smaller of two natural steps that a slider provides and typically corresponds to the user pressing an arrow key.

Defaults to 1 (1% of the voltage).

Access functions:

• int singleStep () const
• void setSingleStep ( int milliseconds )

tracking : bool

This property holds whether slider tracking is enabled.

If tracking is enabled (the default), the volume changes while the slider is being dragged. If tracking is disabled, the volume changes only when the user releases the slider.

Access functions:
