Detailed Description

Command link buttons are the choices of a dialog that asks what to do, each with a line that explains it:

auto *save = new QCommandLinkButton("Save", "Keep the changes in the file.", dialog);
connect(save, &QPushButton::clicked, dialog, &QDialog::accept);

The button is flat until the mouse is over it, and draws an arrow before its title, which is larger than the text of other buttons. Lines of the description are wrapped to the width of the button.

See also QPushButton.

Differences from Qt

The arrow is drawn rather than taken from the icon theme, and there is no setIcon().
