`TaurusGroupBox`

class TaurusGroupBox(parent=None, designMode=False)[source]

This is a Qt.QGroupBox that additionally accepts a model property. This type of taurus container classes are specially useful if you define a parent taurus model to them and set all contained taurus widgets to use parent model. Example:

from taurus.qt.qtgui.container import TaurusGroupBox
from taurus.qt.qtgui.display import TaurusLabel

widget = TaurusGroupBox("Example")
layout = Qt.QVBoxLayout()
widget.setLayout(layout)
widget.model = 'sys/database/2'
stateWidget = TaurusLabel()
layout.addWidget(stateWidget)
stateWidget.model = 'sys/database/2/state'

Import from taurus.qt.qtgui.container as:

from taurus.qt.qtgui.container import TaurusGroupBox

applyPendingChanges()[source]

getDisplayValue(**kwargs)[source]

Returns a string representation of the model value associated with this component.

Parameters:

cache (bool) – (ignored, just for bck-compat).
fragmentName (str or None) – the returned value will correspond to the given fragmentName. If None passed, self.modelFragmentName will be used, and if None is set, the defaultFragmentName of the model will be used instead.
key (object) – the model key. Defaults to first element of .modelKeys

Returns:

a string representation of the model value.

Return type:

str

getPrefixText()[source]

classmethod getQtDesignerPluginInfo()[source]

Returns pertinent information in order to be able to build a valid QtDesigner widget plugin.

The dictionary returned by this method should contain at least the following keys and values:

‘module’ : a string representing the full python module name (ex.: ‘taurus.qt.qtgui.base’)
‘icon’ : a string representing valid resource icon (ex.: ‘designer:combobox.png’)
‘container’a bool telling if this widget is a container widget or
not.

This default implementation returns the following dictionary:

{ 'group'     : 'Taurus [Unclassified]',
  'icon'      : 'logos:taurus.png',
  'container' : False }

Returns:: a map with pertinent designer information
Return type:: dict

getSuffixText()[source]

model

Returns the model name for this component.

Parameters:: key (object) – the model key. Defaults to first element of .modelKeys
Returns:: the model name.
Return type:: str

modelChanged

pendingOperationsChanged(yesno)[source]

prefixText: prefix text (optional)

resetPendingChanges()[source]

setPrefixText(prefix)[source]

setSuffixText(suffix)[source]

showQuality

Returns if showing the quality as a background color

Returns:: True if showing the quality or False otherwise
Return type:: bool

showText

Returns if showing the display value

Returns:: True if showing the display value or False otherwise
Return type:: bool

suffixText: suffix text (optional)
