Not able to set ProxyWidget Position (solved)

[houmingc]

proxy has a method (setPos) but i can't seems to be able to move the proxyWidget.

'''
WidgetCountdown *CountdownTest = new WidgetCountdown;
QGraphicsProxyWidget *proxy = scene.addWidget(CountdownTest);
proxy->setPos(0,0);

Hi,

Where do you expect that position to be ?

I looked at the "colliding mouse example":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/graphicsview-collidingmice.html that ships with Qt.
The mouse is place at random location using setPos Method
'''
mouse->setPos(::sin((i * 6.28) / MouseCount) * 200, ::cos((i * 6.28) / MouseCount) * 200);

I expect proxy->setPos(0,0) to be top left side of the screen.
The coordinates mapping into scene confuse me...

You should update your documentation link. The from nokia time is a bit outdated to say the least.

The setPos call you are showing is just a way to position a mouse at random points on the scene

What are other ways of positioning, please comment.
