General and Desktop

@Christian-Ehrlicher Thanks

The Text Edit example shows Qt's rich text editing facilities in action. https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwidgets-richtext-textedit-example.html Maybe that's what you are looking for

Widegts can be added to the MenuBar using the setCornerWidget() function. So far I have found a solution for myself.

Hi, Yes it is, Qt does not draw the title bar or window decorations.

@JacobNovitsky said in Get data from text file and send to text entry field: So it proceeds PASTE (Ctrl V) but you did not really used Ctrl+C before Have you looked at QClipboard Class ? The clipboard offers a simple mechanism to copy and paste data between applications.

@bogong said in Linux application best practices. How?: Totally senseless reply. In my question mentioned exactly about Linux. Nothing more. So we should read your thoughts and already know what "Linux-specific" things you want to do and what "server-like" application you are thinking of?! Asking for a "Linux app" is like "I want to write a program" with no more information, esp. when mentioning Qt, which is mostly cross-platform, so the OS doesn't matter. And when it matters, it's most likely not a Qt-related question, which are also answered here, but the little information you provided, is not much... So what answers did you expect?!

@Rajeshkumar What is a "qform" anyway?

@Pl45m4 said in [Hiding a window of an app that has crashed under debugger (Windows)] Does this only happen when the app crashes or every time you hit a breakpoint or jump between LoC? Well, actually, yes, every time a breakpoint is triggered The only thing I see is to connect a second screen (physical monitor, no virtual desktop) and try to make it work that the app stays "alwaysOnTop" on one monitor and QtC on the other so that you might have a chance to click somewhere I'm curious if VMware or KVM allows adding virtual monitors

@sierdzio ok, thanks for reply.

worked for me: self.name_dropdown.placeholderText() self.name_dropdown.setPlaceholderText('Choose Operator') self.name_dropdown.addItems(['Name1, 'Name2', 'Name3'])

@robro , your files removed. What was the problem? can you share your experience?

@SGaist Thanks, yeah it does not generate new files.
