# QDesignerActionEditorInterface Class Reference
[QtDesigner module]

The QDesignerActionEditorInterface class allows you to change the focus of Qt Designer's action editor. More...

Inherits QWidget.

### Methods

- __init__ (self, QWidget parent, Qt.WindowFlags flags = 0)
- QDesignerFormEditorInterface core (self)
- manageAction (self, QAction action)
- setFormWindow (self, QDesignerFormWindowInterface formWindow)
- unmanageAction (self, QAction action)

## Detailed Description

The QDesignerActionEditorInterface class allows you to change the focus of Qt Designer's action editor.

The QDesignerActionEditorInterface class is not intended to be instantiated directly. You can retrieve an interface to Qt Designer's action editor using the QDesignerFormEditorInterface.actionEditor() function.

You can control which actions that are available in the action editor's window using the manageAction() and unmanageAction() functions. An action that is managed by Qt Designer is available in the action editor while an unmanaged action is ignored.

QDesignerActionEditorInterface also provides the core() function that you can use to retrieve a pointer to Qt Designer's current QDesignerFormEditorInterface object, and the setFormWindow() function that enables you to change the currently selected form window.

See also QDesignerFormEditorInterface and QDesignerFormWindowInterface.
