## Detailed Description

The QSize class defines the size of a two-dimensional object.

A size is specified by a width and a height.

The coordinate type is QCOORD (defined in `<qwindowdefs.h>` as `int`). The minimum value of QCOORD is QCOORD_MIN (-2147483648) and the maximum value is QCOORD_MAX (2147483647).

The size can be set in the constructor and changed with setWidth() and setHeight(), or using operator+=(), operator-=(), operator*=() and operator/=(), etc. You can swap the width and height with transpose(). You can get a size which holds the maximum height and width of two sizes using expandedTo(), and the minimum height and width of two sizes using boundedTo().

## Member Type Documentation

### QSize::ScaleMode

This enum type defines the different ways of scaling a size.

- `QSize::ScaleFree` - The size is scaled freely. The ratio is not preserved.
- `QSize::ScaleMin` - The size is scaled to a rectangle as large as possible inside a given rectangle, preserving the aspect ratio.
- `QSize::ScaleMax` - The size is scaled to a rectangle as small as possible outside a given rectangle, preserving the aspect ratio.

See also QSize::scale(), QImage::scale(), and QImage::smoothScale().

## Member Function Documentation

### QSize::QSize ()

Constructs a size with invalid (negative) width and height.

### QSize::QSize ( int w, int h )

Constructs a size with width w and height h.

### QSize QSize::boundedTo ( const QSize & otherSize ) const

Returns a size with the minimum width and height of this size and otherSize.

### QSize QSize::expandedTo ( const QSize & otherSize ) const

Returns a size with the maximum width and height of this size and otherSize.

Examples: customlayout/card.cpp and customlayout/flow.cpp.

### int QSize::height () const

Returns the height.

See also width().

Examples: movies/main.cpp, qfd/fontdisplayer.cpp, and qfd/qfd.cpp.

### bool QSize::isEmpty () const

Returns TRUE if the width is less than or equal to 0, or the height is less than or equal to 0; otherwise returns FALSE.

### bool QSize::isNull () const

Returns TRUE if the width is 0 and the height is 0; otherwise returns FALSE.

### bool QSize::isValid () const

Returns TRUE if the width is equal to or greater than 0 and the height is equal to or greater than 0; otherwise returns FALSE.

### QSize & QSize::operator*= ( int c )

Multiplies both the width and height by c and returns a reference to the size.

### QSize & QSize::operator*= ( double c )

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.

Multiplies both the width and height by c and returns a reference to the size.

Note that the result is truncated.

### QSize & QSize::operator+= ( const QSize & s )

Adds s to the size and returns a reference to this size.

Example:

        QSize s(  3, 7 );
        QSize r( -1, 4 );
        s += r;                     // s becomes (2,11)

### QSize & QSize::operator-= ( const QSize & s )

Subtracts s from the size and returns a reference to this size.

Example:

        QSize s(  3, 7 );
        QSize r( -1, 4 );
        s -= r;                     // s becomes (4,3)

### QSize & QSize::operator/= ( int c )

Divides both the width and height by c and returns a reference to the size.

### QSize & QSize::operator/= ( double c )

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.

Divides both the width and height by c and returns a reference to the size.

Note that the result is truncated.

### QCOORD & QSize::rheight ()

Returns a reference to the height.

Using a reference makes it possible to directly manipulate the height.

Example:

        QSize s( 100, 10 );
        s.rheight() += 5;           // s becomes (100,15)

See also rwidth().

### QCOORD & QSize::rwidth ()

Returns a reference to the width.

Using a reference makes it possible to directly manipulate the width.

Example:

        QSize s( 100, 10 );
        s.rwidth() += 20;           // s becomes (120,10)

See also rheight().

### void QSize::scale ( int w, int h, ScaleMode mode )

Scales the size to a rectangle of width w and height h according to the ScaleMode mode.

- If mode is ScaleFree, the size is set to (w, h).
- If mode is ScaleMin, the current size is scaled to a rectangle as large as possible inside (w, h), preserving the aspect ratio.
- If mode is ScaleMax, the current size is scaled to a rectangle as small as possible outside (w, h), preserving the aspect ratio.

Example:

        QSize t1( 10, 12 );
        t1.scale( 60, 60, QSize::ScaleFree );
        // t1 is (60, 60)

        QSize t2( 10, 12 );
        t2.scale( 60, 60, QSize::ScaleMin );
        // t2 is (50, 60)

        QSize t3( 10, 12 );
        t3.scale( 60, 60, QSize::ScaleMax );
        // t3 is (60, 72)

### void QSize::scale ( const QSize & s, ScaleMode mode )

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.

Equivalent to scale(s.width(), s.height(), mode).

### void QSize::setHeight ( int h )

Sets the height to h.

See also height() and setWidth().

### void QSize::setWidth ( int w )

Sets the width to w.

See also width() and setHeight().

### void QSize::transpose ()

Swaps the values of width and height.

### int QSize::width () const

Returns the width.

See also height().

Examples: movies/main.cpp, qfd/fontdisplayer.cpp, and qfd/qfd.cpp.
