Scene handover from one view to another

[nanoandrew4]

So I am making a game, and I am trying to make the main menu transition to the game without the window closing and opening a new one, which is what is happening now. I want it so when a user hits play, in the same window, the game loads. I tried using extern to reuse the view and scene, which did not work. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi
Try with other sample ?
like this
http://www.bogotobogo.com/Qt/Qt5_QGraphicsView_QGraphicsScene.php
Where the view and scene are pointers.
And you can easy add a button that clears scene and Insert new stuff.
hope it helps

@mrjj Thank you very much! I finally solved the issue by externing the view pointer and creating a new scene for the view to work on.

Hi,

Externing ? What do you mean by that ?

[mrjj]

@SGaist
I read it as
extern SomeClass *globalPointer;
:)
could be very wrong though.

@mrjj I read it the same but hope it's not the case.
