Basic input

SplitButton

A two-part button: a primary action plus a chevron that opens a menu.

Example

Usage

Primary action and menu

The primary region invokes the default action; the secondary region opens the menu.

#include <FluentQt/BasicInput.h>
using namespace fluent::basicinput;

auto* button = new SplitButton("Choose color", this);
auto* menu = new FluentMenu("Colors", button);
menu->addAction("Red");
menu->addAction("Green");
menu->addAction("Blue");
button->setMenu(menu);
connect(button, &SplitButton::clicked, button, [button] {
    Toast::showOrUpdateToast(button, "gallery.action-feedback",
        "Primary action selected", Toast::Informational, 2200,
        Toast::Top, QMargins(16, 50, 16, 16));
});
connect(menu, &QMenu::triggered, button, [button](QAction* action) {
    Toast::showOrUpdateToast(button, "gallery.action-feedback",
        action->text() + " selected", Toast::Informational, 2200,
        Toast::Top, QMargins(16, 50, 16, 16));
});

import fluentqt

from PySide6.QtCore import QMargins

button = fluentqt.SplitButton('Choose color')
menu = fluentqt.FluentMenu('Colors', button)
menu.addAction('Red')
menu.addAction('Green')
menu.addAction('Blue')
button.setMenu(menu)
def feedback(message):
    fluentqt.Toast.showOrUpdateToast(
        button,
        "gallery.action-feedback",
        message,
        fluentqt.Toast.Informational,
        2200,
        fluentqt.Toast.Top,
        QMargins(16, 50, 16, 16)
    )
button.clicked.connect(lambda: feedback('Primary action selected'))
menu.triggered.connect(lambda action: feedback(action.text() + ' selected'))
