## Detailed Description

This Widget extends the functionality of QIconView to honor the system wide settings for Single Click/Double Click mode, Auto Selection and Change Cursor over Link. A variant of QIconView that honors KDE's system-wide settings.

There is a new signal executed(). It gets connected to either QIconView::clicked() or QIconView::doubleClicked() depending on the KDE wide Single Click/Double Click settings. It is strongly recomended that you use this signal instead of the above mentioned. This way you donīt need to care about the current settings. If you want to get informed when the user selects something connect to the QIconView::selectionChanged() signal.

|  | const QPoint & | pos
| ) | `[signal]`

This signal gets emitted whenever the user double clicks into the iconview.

Parameters:
