+    The DisplayStyle enum describes the main visual characteristics of a

+
+      \value LabelDisplay
+             Based on QLabel, used for text that cannot be changed by the

+             defined in the build system.
+
+      \value LineEditDisplay
+             Based on QLineEdit, used for user-editable strings that usually
+             fit on a line.
+
+      \value TextEditDisplay
+             Based on QTextEdit, used for user-editable strings that often
