<!-- $$$QAction-description -->
<div class="descr">
<h2 id="details">Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The <a href="qaction.html">QAction</a> class provides an abstract user interface action that can be inserted into widgets.</p>
<p>In applications many common commands can be invoked via menus, toolbar buttons, and keyboard shortcuts. Since the user expects each command to be performed in the same way, regardless of the user interface used, it is useful to represent each command as an <i>action</i>.</p>
<p>Actions can be added to menus and toolbars, and will automatically keep them in sync. For example, in a word processor, if the user presses a Bold toolbar button, the Bold menu item will automatically be checked.</p>
<p>Actions can be created as independent objects, but they may also be created during the construction of menus; the <a href="qmenu.html">QMenu</a> class contains convenience functions for creating actions suitable for use as menu items.</p>
<p>A <a href="qaction.html">QAction</a> may contain an icon, menu text, a shortcut, status text, &quot;What's This?&quot; text, and a tooltip. Most of these can be set in the constructor. They can also be set independently with <a href="qaction.html#icon-prop">setIcon</a>(), <a href="qaction.html#text-prop">setText</a>(), <a href="qaction.html#iconText-prop">setIconText</a>(), <a href="qaction.html#shortcut-prop">setShortcut</a>(), <a href="qaction.html#statusTip-prop">setStatusTip</a>(), <a href="qaction.html#whatsThis-prop">setWhatsThis</a>(), and <a href="qaction.html#toolTip-prop">setToolTip</a>(). For menu items, it is possible to set an individual font with <a href="qaction.html#font-prop">setFont</a>().</p>
<p>Actions are added to widgets using <a href="qwidget.html#addAction">QWidget::addAction</a>() or <a href="qgraphicswidget.html#addAction">QGraphicsWidget::addAction</a>(). Note that an action must be added to a widget before it can be used; this is also true when the shortcut should be global (i.e&#x2e;, <a href="../qtcore/qt.html#ShortcutContext-enum">Qt::ApplicationShortcut</a> as <a href="../qtcore/qt.html#ShortcutContext-enum">Qt::ShortcutContext</a>).</p>
<p>Once a <a href="qaction.html">QAction</a> has been created it should be added to the relevant menu and toolbar, then connected to the slot which will perform the action. For example:</p>
<pre class="cpp">

      <span class="keyword">const</span> <span class="type"><a href="../qtgui/qicon.html">QIcon</a></span> openIcon <span class="operator">=</span> <span class="type"><a href="../qtgui/qicon.html">QIcon</a></span><span class="operator">::</span>fromTheme(<span class="string">&quot;document-open&quot;</span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type"><a href="../qtgui/qicon.html">QIcon</a></span>(<span class="string">&quot;:/images/open.png&quot;</span>));

      openAct<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">&gt;</span>setShortcuts(<span class="type"><a href="../qtgui/qkeysequence.html">QKeySequence</a></span><span class="operator">::</span>Open);
      openAct<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">&gt;</span>setStatusTip(tr(<span class="string">&quot;Open an existing file&quot;</span>));
      connect(openAct<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="operator">&amp;</span><span class="type"><a href="qaction.html#QAction">QAction</a></span><span class="operator">::</span>triggered<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="keyword">this</span><span class="operator">,</span> <span class="operator">&amp;</span>MainWindow<span class="operator">::</span>open);
      fileMenu<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">&gt;</span>addAction(openAct);
      fileToolBar<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">&gt;</span>addAction(openAct);

</pre>
<pre class="cpp">

  fileMenu<span class="operator">-</span><span class="operator">&gt;</span>addAction(openAct);

</pre>
<p>We recommend that actions are created as children of the window they are used in. In most cases actions will be children of the application's main window.</p>

<p>This property holds whether the action is a checkable action</p>
<p>A checkable action is one which has an on/off state. For example, in a word processor, a Bold toolbar button may be either on or off. An action which is not a toggle action is a command action; a command action is simply executed, e.g&#x2e; file save. By default, this property is <code>false</code>.</p>
<p>In some situations, the state of one toggle action should depend on the state of others. For example, &quot;Left Align&quot;, &quot;Center&quot; and &quot;Right Align&quot; toggle actions are mutually exclusive. To achieve exclusive toggling, add the relevant toggle actions to a <a href="qactiongroup.html">QActionGroup</a> with the <a href="qactiongroup.html#exclusive-prop">QActionGroup::exclusive</a> property set to true.</p>

<p>This property holds whether or not an action should show an icon in a menu</p>
<p>In some applications, it may make sense to have actions with icons in the toolbar, but not in menus. If true, the icon (if valid) is shown in the menu, when it is false, it is not shown.</p>
