Constructor

__init__ | ( | self, |
|  | QColor | color,
|  | KLed.State | state,
|  | KLed.Look | look,
|  | KLed.Shape | shape,
|  | QWidget | parent=0
| ) |  |  |

Constructor with the color, state and look.

Differs from above only in the parameters, which configure all settings.

Parameters:

  | color | Initial color of the LED.
  | state | Sets the State.
  | look | Sets the Look.

bool paintCachedPixmap | ( |  | self ) |

Paint the cached antialiased pixmap corresponding to the state if any

Returns:
  true if the pixmap was painted, false if it hasn't been created yet

paintEvent | ( | self, |
|  | QPaintEvent | a0
| ) |  |  |

|  | QResizeEvent | a0
| ) |  |  |

setColor | ( | self, |
|  | QColor | color
| ) |  |  |

Set the color of the widget.

The LED is shown with Color when in the KLed.On state or with the darken Color (@see setDarkFactor) in KLed.Off state.

## Enumeration Documentation

Look

Displays a flat, round or sunken LED.

Displaying the LED flat is less time and color consuming, but not so nice to see.

The sunken LED itself is (certainly) smaller than the round LED because of the 3 shading circles and is most time consuming. Makes sense for LED > 15x15 pixels.

Timings: ( AMD K5/133, Diamond Stealth 64 PCI Graphics, widgetsize 29x29 )

- flat Approximately 0.7 msec per paint
- round Approximately 2.9 msec per paint
- sunken Approximately 3.3 msec per paint

The widget will be updated on the next repaining event.
