Detailed Description
The QWebEngineSettings class provides an object to store the settings used by QWebEnginePage.
Each QWebEnginePage object has its own QWebEngineSettings object, which configures the settings for that page. If a setting is not configured, then it is looked up in the global settings object, which can be accessed using globalSettings().
QWebEngineSettings allows configuration of browser properties, such as font sizes and families, the location of a custom style sheet, and generic attributes, such as JavaScript support. Individual attributes are set using the setAttribute() function. The WebAttribute enum further describes each attribute.
See also QWebEnginePage::settings() and QWebEngineView::settings().
Member Type Documentation
enum QWebEngineSettings::FontFamily
This enum describes the generic font families defined by CSS 2. For more information see the CSS standard.
| Constant | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
QWebEngineSettings::StandardFont | 0 | |
QWebEngineSettings::FixedFont | 1 | |
QWebEngineSettings::SerifFont | 2 | |
QWebEngineSettings::SansSerifFont | 3 | |
QWebEngineSettings::CursiveFont | 4 | |
QWebEngineSettings::FantasyFont | 5 | |
QWebEngineSettings::PictographFont | 6 | (added in Qt 5.7) |
enum QWebEngineSettings::FontSize
This enum describes the font sizes configurable through QWebEngineSettings:
| Constant | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
QWebEngineSettings::MinimumFontSize | 0 | The hard minimum font size. |
QWebEngineSettings::MinimumLogicalFontSize | 1 | The minimum logical font size that is applied when zooming out. |
QWebEngineSettings::DefaultFontSize | 2 | The default font size for regular text. |
QWebEngineSettings::DefaultFixedFontSize | 3 | The default font size for fixed-pitch text. |
enum QWebEngineSettings::WebAttribute
This enum type specifies settings for web pages:
| Constant | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
QWebEngineSettings::AutoLoadImages | 0 | Automatically dowloads images for web pages. When this setting is disabled, images are loaded from the cache. Enabled by default. |
QWebEngineSettings::JavascriptEnabled | 1 | Enables the running of JavaScript programs. Enabled by default. |
QWebEngineSettings::JavascriptCanOpenWindows | 2 | Allows JavaScript programs to open popup windows without user interaction. Enabled by default. |
QWebEngineSettings::JavascriptCanAccessClipboard | 3 | Allows JavaScript programs to read from and write to the clipboard. Disabled by default. |
QWebEngineSettings::LinksIncludedInFocusChain | 4 | Includes hyperlinks in the keyboard focus chain. Enabled by default. |
QWebEngineSettings::LocalStorageEnabled | 5 | Enables support for the HTML 5 local storage feature. Enabled by default. |
QWebEngineSettings::LocalContentCanAccessRemoteUrls | 6 | Allows locally loaded documents to ignore cross-origin rules so that they can access remote resources that would normally be blocked, because all remote resources are considered cross-origin for a local file. Remote access that would not be blocked by cross-origin rules is still possible when this setting is disabled (default). Note that disabling this setting does not stop XMLHttpRequests or media elements in local files from accessing remote content. Basically, it only stops some HTML subresources, such as scripts, and therefore disabling this setting is not a safety mechanism. |
QWebEngineSettings::XSSAuditingEnabled | 7 | Monitors load requests for cross-site scripting attempts. Suspicious scripts are blocked and reported in the inspector's JavaScript console. Disabled by default, because it might negatively affect performance. |
QWebEngineSettings::SpatialNavigationEnabled | 8 | Enables the Spatial Navigation feature, which means the ability to navigate between focusable elements, such as hyperlinks and form controls, on a web page by using the Left, Right, Up and Down arrow keys. For example, if a user presses the Right key, heuristics determine whether there is an element they might be trying to reach towards the right and which element they probably want. Disabled by default. |
QWebEngineSettings::LocalContentCanAccessFileUrls | 9 | Allows locally loaded documents to access other local URLs. Enabled by default. |
QWebEngineSettings::HyperlinkAuditingEnabled | 10 | Enables support for the ping attribute for hyperlinks. Disabled by default. |
QWebEngineSettings::ScrollAnimatorEnabled | 11 | Enables animated scrolling. Disabled by default. |
QWebEngineSettings::ErrorPageEnabled | 12 | Enables displaying the built-in error pages of Chromium. Enabled by default. |
QWebEngineSettings::PluginsEnabled | 13 | Enables support for Pepper plugins, such as the Flash player. Disabled by default. See also Pepper Plugin API. (Added in Qt 5.6) |
QWebEngineSettings::FullScreenSupportEnabled | 14 | Enables fullscreen support in an application. Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.6) |
QWebEngineSettings::ScreenCaptureEnabled | 15 | Enables screen capture in an application. Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.7) |
QWebEngineSettings::WebGLEnabled | 16 | Enables support for HTML 5 WebGL. Enabled by default if available. (Added in Qt 5.7) |
QWebEngineSettings::Accelerated2dCanvasEnabled | 17 | Specifies whether the HTML5 2D canvas should be a OpenGL framebuffer. This makes many painting operations faster, but slows down pixel access. Enabled by default if available. (Added in Qt 5.7) |
QWebEngineSettings::AutoLoadIconsForPage | 18 | Automatically downloads icons for web pages. Enabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.7) |
QWebEngineSettings::TouchIconsEnabled | 19 | Enables support for touch icons and precomposed touch icons Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.7) |
QWebEngineSettings::FocusOnNavigationEnabled | 20 | Gives focus to the view associated with the page, whenever a navigation operation occurs (load, stop, reload, reload and bypass cache, forward, backward, set content, and so on). Enabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.8) |
QWebEngineSettings::PrintElementBackgrounds | 21 | Turns on printing of CSS backgrounds when printing a web page. Enabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.8) |
QWebEngineSettings::AllowRunningInsecureContent | 22 | By default, HTTPS pages cannot run JavaScript, CSS, plugins or web-sockets from HTTP URLs. This provides an override to get the old insecure behavior. Disabled by default. (Added in Qt 5.8) |
Member Function Documentation
[static] QWebEngineSettings *QWebEngineSettings::defaultSettings()
Returns the default settings for the web engine page.
See also globalSettings().
QString QWebEngineSettings::defaultTextEncoding() const
Returns the default text encoding.
See also setDefaultTextEncoding().
QString QWebEngineSettings::fontFamily(FontFamily which) const
Returns the actual font family for the specified generic font family, which.
See also setFontFamily().
int QWebEngineSettings::fontSize(FontSize type) const
Returns the default font size for type in pixels.
See also setFontSize().
[static] QWebEngineSettings *QWebEngineSettings::globalSettings()
Returns the global settings object.
Any setting changed on the default object is automatically applied to all QWebEnginePage instances where the particular setting is not overridden already.
See also defaultSettings().
void QWebEngineSettings::resetAttribute(WebAttribute attribute)
Resets the setting of attribute to the value specified in the global QWebEngineSettings instance.
This function has no effect on the global QWebEngineSettings instance.
See also globalSettings().
void QWebEngineSettings::resetFontFamily(FontFamily which)
Resets the actual font family specified by which to the one set in the global QWebEngineSettings instance.
This function has no effect on the global QWebEngineSettings instance.
void QWebEngineSettings::resetFontSize(FontSize type)

void QWebEngineSettings::setDefaultTextEncoding(const QString &encoding)
Specifies the default text encoding system.
The value of encoding must be a string describing an encoding such as "utf-8" or "iso-8859-1". If left empty, a default value will be used. For a more extensive list of encoding names see QTextCodec.
