Creating a tab widget with QTableView in it dynamically

[Indrajeet]

Hi

I have a QDialog in which i have one TabWidget with 4 tabs in it.
In 4th tab i want to create one more tabwidget dynamically and number of tabs for this tabwidget is decide at runtime and in each tab we create i want to create a Tableview in it dynamically.

How to do this?

What you mean by 'dynamically' ?
If you mean that the number of tabs is variable, you can use a QList<newtab *> to store the tabs and add them using
QTabWidget::addTab ( QWidget * page, const QString & label ) at runtime.

Hi

Dynamically means i want to create it inside the code not in the .ui file.

@
[pseudo code]
QWidget *parentTab = parentTabWidget->widget(index);

TabWidget *childTabWidget = new TabWidget(parentTab);
// change style, layout, etc

// read more: int addTab ( QWidget * page, const QString & label )
childTabWidget->addTab(new Tab, "New Tab");

Hi, this may be will work :

@

MainWindow::MainWindow()
{

m_layout = new QVBoxLayout;

// QTabWidget that contains 4 tabs
m_parentTabWidget = new QTabWidget;
m_layout->addWidget(m_parentTabWidget);

// set layout to the parent widget of QTabWidget to expand the TabWidget
// to the wall mainwindow (this is your problem)!
this->setLayout(m_layout);

tab1 = new QWidget;
m_layout1 = new QVBoxLayout;
tab1->setLayout(m_layout1);

tab2 = new QWidget;
m_layout2 = new QVBoxLayout;
tab2->setLayout(m_layout2);

tab3 = new QWidget;
m_layout3 = new QVBoxLayout;
tab3->setLayout(m_layout3);

m_childTabWidget = new QTabWidget;

m_parentTabWidget->addTab(tab1, "tab 1");
m_parentTabWidget->addTab(tab2, "tab 2");
m_parentTabWidget->addTab(tab3, "tab 3");
m_parentTabWidget->addTab(m_childTabWidget, "tab 4");

//QObject::connect( , SIGNAL(), , SLOT(addtab()));
addtab();
}

// slot
void MainWindow::addtab()
{

QWidget * tab = new QWidget;
QVBoxLayout * layout = new QVBoxLayout;
tab->setLayout(layout);
m_childTabWidget->addTab(tab, "New Tab");

}

HI

Below is my code i tried to do same way you told me but its not working

@ QWidget *parentTab = ui.tabWidget->widget(1);

//Create child tab in parent tab
QTabWidget *childTabWidget = new QTabWidget(parentTab);

GeneralTab *obj = new GeneralTab(this);
disconnect(obj->tablemodel_nameVariables, SIGNAL(dataChanged(const QModelIndex&, const QModelIndex&)),obj, SLOT(dataChangedParameterValue(const QModelIndex&, const QModelIndex&)));

QStandardItem *temp1 = new QStandardItem("1");
obj->tablemodel_nameVariables->setItem( 0, 0 ,temp1 );
temp1->setData("Inder",Qt::UserRole+1);
temp1->setFlags(Qt::ItemIsSelectable | Qt::ItemIsEnabled |Qt::ItemIsEditable);

QStandardItem *temp2 = new QStandardItem("2");
obj->tablemodel_nameVariables->setItem( 0,1 ,temp2 );
temp2->setFlags(Qt::ItemIsSelectable | Qt::ItemIsEnabled |Qt::ItemIsEditable);

QStandardItem *temp3 = new QStandardItem("3");
obj->tablemodel_nameVariables->setItem( 0, 2,temp3 );
temp3->setFlags(Qt::ItemIsSelectable | Qt::ItemIsEnabled |Qt::ItemIsEditable);

connect(obj->tablemodel_nameVariables, SIGNAL(dataChanged(const QModelIndex&, const QModelIndex&)),obj, SLOT(dataChangedParameterValue(const QModelIndex&, const QModelIndex&)));

GeneralTab *obj1 = new GeneralTab(this);
disconnect(obj1->tablemodel_nameVariables, SIGNAL(dataChanged(const QModelIndex&, const QModelIndex&)),obj1, SLOT(dataChangedParameterValue(const QModelIndex&, const QModelIndex&)));

QStandardItem *temp11 = new QStandardItem("11");
obj1->tablemodel_nameVariables->setItem( 0, 0 ,temp11 );
temp11->setFlags(Qt::ItemIsSelectable | Qt::ItemIsEnabled |Qt::ItemIsEditable);

QStandardItem *temp22 = new QStandardItem("22");
obj1->tablemodel_nameVariables->setItem( 0,1 ,temp22 );
temp22->setFlags(Qt::ItemIsSelectable | Qt::ItemIsEnabled |Qt::ItemIsEditable);

QStandardItem *temp33 = new QStandardItem("33");
obj1->tablemodel_nameVariables->setItem( 0, 2,temp33 );
temp33->setFlags(Qt::ItemIsSelectable | Qt::ItemIsEnabled |Qt::ItemIsEditable);

connect(obj1->tablemodel_nameVariables, SIGNAL(dataChanged(const QModelIndex&, const QModelIndex&)),obj1, SLOT(dataChangedParameterValue(const QModelIndex&, const QModelIndex&)));

childTabWidget->addTab(obj, tr("General"));
childTabWidget->addTab(obj1, tr("General2"));@

Note :- GeneralTab is my QWidget class on which TableView is present.
