Detailed Description

QStyleHintReturn and its subclasses are used to pass information from a style back to the querying widget. This is most useful when the return value from styleHint() does not provide enough detail; for example, when a mask is to be returned.

class PySide6.QtWidgets.QStyleHintReturn([version=QStyleOption.Version[, type=QStyleHintReturn.HintReturnType.SH_Default]])

Parameters:

• version – int

• type – int

Constructs a QStyleHintReturn with version version and type type.

The version has no special meaning for QStyleHintReturn ; it can be used by subclasses to distinguish between different version of the same hint type.

PySide6.QtWidgets.QStyleHintReturn.StyleOptionType

This enum is used to hold information about the type of the style option, and is defined for each QStyleHintReturn subclass.

Constant	Description
QStyleHintReturn.Type	The type of style option provided ( SH_Default for this class).

The type is used internally by QStyleHintReturn , its subclasses, and qstyleoption_cast() to determine the type of style option. In general you do not need to worry about this unless you want to create your own QStyleHintReturn subclass and your own styles.

PySide6.QtWidgets.QStyleHintReturn.StyleOptionVersion

This enum is used to hold information about the version of the style option, and is defined for each QStyleHintReturn subclass.

Constant	Description
QStyleHintReturn.Version	1

The version is used by QStyleHintReturn subclasses to implement extensions without breaking compatibility. If you use qstyleoption_cast() , you normally do not need to check it.
