QComboBox menu, set Option menu from Variable

yczo

Hi, I have the next QComboBox menu:

QComboBox *Mode = new QComboBox(this);
Mode->addItem(tr("Off"));
Mode->addItem(tr("Manual"));
Mode->addItem(tr("Automatic"));

The default option shown is "Off", the question is: How can I change the menu selected with a a varaible... it is possible?

my idea is : if(num == 3) Mode->setMenu(Automatic);

Any help will be wellcomed.

Thanks in advance

The easiest way will be to use QComboBox::setCurrentIndex(int index).
Note that indexes start with 0, not with 1. So in your case "Automatic" would have index 2.

QComboBox::setCurrentText() was added somewhen after Qt 4.8 if that helps in your case.

Hope that helps.

QComboBox::setCurrentIndex() should be what you are looking for. Unless I misunderstood you.
