## Detailed Description

This action is a normal action everywhere, except in a toolbar where it also has a popupmenu (optionnally delayed).

This action is designed for history actions (back/forward, undo/redo) and for any other action that has more detail in a toolbar than in a menu (e.g. tool chooser with "Other" leading to a dialog...).

## Member Function Documentation

int KToolBarPopupAction::plug | ( | QWidget * | widget,
|  | int | index = `-1`
| ) | `[virtual]`

  | "Plug" or insert this action into a given widget. This will typically be a menu or a toolbar. From this point on, you will never need to directly manipulate the item in the menu or toolbar. You do all enabling/disabling/manipulation directly with your KAction object. Parameters:
  | widget | The GUI element to display this action
  | index | The position into which the action is plugged. If this is negative, the action is inserted at the end.
Reimplemented from KAction.

KPopupMenu * KToolBarPopupAction::popupMenu | ( |  | ) | const

| The popup menu that is shown when clicking (some time) on the toolbar button. You may want to plug items into it on creation, or connect to aboutToShow for a more dynamic menu. Definition at line 1871 of file kactionclasses.cpp. References m_popup. Referenced by plug().

bool KToolBarPopupAction::delayed | ( |  | ) | const

| Returns true if this action creates a delayed popup menu when plugged in a KToolbar. Referenced by plug().

void KToolBarPopupAction::setDelayed | ( | bool | delayed | ) |

| If set to true, this action will create a delayed popup menu when plugged in a KToolbar. Otherwise it creates a normal popup. Default: delayed. Definition at line 1810 of file kactionclasses.cpp.

bool KToolBarPopupAction::stickyMenu | ( |  | ) | const

| Returns true if this action creates a sticky popup menu. See setStickyMenu. Referenced by plug().

void KToolBarPopupAction::setStickyMenu | ( | bool | sticky | ) |

| If set to true, this action will create a sticky popup menu when plugged in a KToolbar. "Sticky", means it's visible until a selection is made or the mouse is clicked elsewhere. This feature allows you to make a selection without having to press and hold down the mouse while making a selection. Only available if delayed() is true. Default: sticky.
