## Detailed Description

A Tip-of-the-Day dialog.

This dialog class presents a tip-of-the-day.

KTipDialog (KTipDatabase *db, QWidget *parent = 0, const char *name = 0) | ### KTipDialog

Construct a tip dialog.

Parameters:

db | TipDatabase that should be used by the TipDialog.
parent | Parent widget of TipDialog.
name | The object name.

~KTipDialog () | ### ~KTipDialog

void showTip (QWidget *parent, const QString &tipFile = QString::null, bool force=false) | ### showTip

[static]

Shows a tip.

This static method is all that is needed to add a tip-of-the-day dialog to an application. It will pop up the dialog, unless the user has asked that the dialog does not pop up on startup.

Note that you probably want an item in the help menu calling this method with force=true.

Parameters:

parent | Parent widget of TipDialog.
tipFile | The name of the tip file.
force | If true, the dialog is show, even when the users disabled it.

void showTip (const QString &tipFile = QString::null, bool force = false) | ### showTip

[static]

Shows a tip.

This methods calls showTip() with the applications main window as parent.

void setShowOnStart (bool show) | ### setShowOnStart

[static]

Toggles the start behaviour.

Normally, the user can disable the display of the tip in the dialog. This is just a way to change this setting from outside.

bool eventFilter (QObject *, QEvent *) | ### eventFilter

[protected]

void virtual_hook ( int id, void* data ) | ### virtual_hook
