<a name="details"></a>
<h2 id="details">Detailed Description</h2>
<p>Control is the base type of user interface controls. It receives input events from the window system, and paints a representation of itself on the screen.</p>
<a name="control-layout"></a>
<h2 id="control-layout">Control Layout</h2>
<p>The following diagram illustrates the layout of a typical control:</p>
<p class="centerAlign"><img src="images/qtquickcontrols2-control.png" alt="" /></p><p>The <a href="../qtquick/qml-qtquick-item.html#implicitWidth-prop">implicitWidth</a> and <a href="../qtquick/qml-qtquick-item.html#implicitHeight-prop">implicitHeight</a> of a control are typically based on the implicit sizes of the background and the content item plus any <a href="qml-qtquick-controls2-control.html#padding-prop">padding</a>. These properties determine how large the control will be when no explicit <a href="../qtquick/qml-qtquick-item.html#width-prop">width</a> or <a href="../qtquick/qml-qtquick-item.html#height-prop">height</a> is specified.</p>
<p>The <a href="qml-qtquick-controls2-control.html#background-prop">background</a> item fills the entire width and height of the control, unless an explicit size has been given for it.</p>
<p>The geometry of the <a href="qml-qtquick-controls2-control.html#contentItem-prop">contentItem</a> is determined by the padding.</p>
<a name="event-handling"></a>
<h2 id="event-handling">Event Handling</h2>
<p>All controls, except non-interactive indicators, do not let clicks and touches through to items below them. For example, if <a href="qml-qtquick-controls2-pane.html">Pane</a> is used as the <a href="qml-qtquick-controls2-applicationwindow.html#header-attached-prop">header</a> or <a href="qml-qtquick-controls2-applicationwindow.html#footer-attached-prop">footer</a> of <a href="qml-qtquick-controls2-applicationwindow.html">ApplicationWindow</a>, items underneath it will not get mouse or touch events.</p>

<p>This property describes the control's requested font. The font is used by the control's style when rendering standard components, and is available as a means to ensure that custom controls can maintain consistency with the native platform's native look and feel. It's common that different platforms, or different styles, define different fonts for an application.</p>
<p>The default font depends on the system environment. <a href="qml-qtquick-controls2-applicationwindow.html">ApplicationWindow</a> maintains a system/theme font which serves as a default for all controls. There may also be special font defaults for certain types of controls. You can also set the default font for controls by passing a custom font to <a href="../qtgui/qguiapplication.html#setFont">QGuiApplication::setFont()</a>, before loading the QML. Finally, the font is matched against Qt's font database to find the best match.</p>
<p>Control propagates explicit font properties from parent to children. If you change a specific property on a control's font, that property propagates to all of the control's children, overriding any system defaults for that property.</p>
