## Detailed Description

The QCDEStyle class provides a CDE look and feel.

This style provides a slightly improved Motif look similar to some versions of the Common Desktop Environment (CDE). The main differences are thinner frames and more modern radio buttons and checkboxes. Together with a dark background and a bright text/foreground color, the style looks quite attractive (at least for Motif fans).

Note that most of the functions provided by QCDEStyle are reimplementations of QStyle functions; see QStyle for their documentation. QCDEStyle provides overloads for drawControl() and drawPrimitive() which are documented here.

See also QWindowsXPStyle, QMacStyle, QWindowsStyle, QPlastiqueStyle, and QMotifStyle.

## Member Function Documentation

### QCDEStyle::QCDEStyle ( bool useHighlightCols = false )

Constructs a QCDEStyle.

If useHighlightCols is false (the default), then the style will polish the application's color palette to emulate the Motif way of highlighting, which is a simple inversion between the base and the text color.

### QCDEStyle::~QCDEStyle ()`[virtual]`

Destroys the style.

### void QCDEStyle::drawControl ( ControlElement element, const QStyleOption * opt, QPainter * p, const QWidget * widget = 0 ) const`[virtual]`

Reimplemented from QStyle::drawControl().

### void QCDEStyle::drawPrimitive ( PrimitiveElement pe, const QStyleOption * opt, QPainter * p, const QWidget * widget = 0 ) const`[virtual]`

Reimplemented from QStyle::drawPrimitive().

### int QCDEStyle::pixelMetric ( PixelMetric metric, const QStyleOption * option = 0, const QWidget * widget = 0 ) const`[virtual]`

Reimplemented from QStyle::pixelMetric().

### QPalette QCDEStyle::standardPalette () const`[virtual]`

Reimplemented from QStyle::standardPalette().
