Namespace: KTextEditor
Detailed Description
Annotation interface for the View
Introduction
The AnnotationViewInterface allows to do two things: - (1) show/hide the annotation border along with the possibility to add actions into its context menu. - (2) set a separate AnnotationModel for the View: Not that this interface inherits the AnnotationInterface.
For a more detailed explanation about whether you want an AnnotationModel in the Document or the View, read the detailed documentation about the AnnotationInterface.
Accessing the AnnotationViewInterface
The AnnotationViewInterface is an extension interface for a View, i.e. the View inherits the interface provided that the used KTextEditor library implements the interface. Use qobject_cast to access the interface:
// view is of type KTextEditor.View* KTextEditor.AnnotationViewInterface *iface = qobject_cast<KTextEditor.AnnotationViewInterface*>( view ); if( iface ) { // the implementation supports the interface // do stuff iface->setAnnotationBorderVisible( true ); }
