14/**
15 * Runtime style extensions
16 * You can use this to have a supporting QStyle implementation paint your widget
17 * This is just convenience and does /not/ require the using widgets style to inherit KStyle (i.e.
18 * calling this while using cleanlooks won't segfault but just return "0")
19 *
20 * For simplicity, only StyleHints, ControlElements and their SubElements are supported
21 * If you don't need extended SubElement functionality, just skip its usage
22 *
23 * The @p element string has to be of the form: "appname.(2-char-element-type)_element"
24 * The 2-char-element-type is the corresponding {SH, CE, SE}
25 * Widgets in KWidgetsAddons don't have to pass the appname
26 *
27 * Examples: "CE_CapacityBar", "amarok.CE_Analyzer"
28 *
29 * Important notes:
30 * 1) If your string lacks the matching "SH_", "CE_" or "SE_" token the element request will be ignored (return is 0)
31 * 2) Try to avoid custom elements and use default ones (if possible) to get better style support and keep UI coherency
32 * 3) If you cache this value (good idea, this requires a map lookup) do not forget to catch style changes in QWidget::changeEvent()!
