    This is probably the silliest question on the planet -

    But when my user enters a value into a spin box - how do I make sure it comes as only an int? I need to perform math on it ... and I am so new - the help docs help a little - but very cryptic in the beginning.

    So basically - What I have is below. I can pull values from the GUI no problem - but I want the value to be an integer.

    void MainWindow::on_spinBox_valueChanged(const QString)
    {
    QString days;
    days=ui->spinBox->text();
    }

      @ShylerC You can use the other slot for that

      void QSpinBox::valueChanged(int i)

        you should take your time and take a look at the documentation of Qt

        it's is very detailed and in 90% off all case has the answer to your questions

        for example:

        QSpinBox-docu section Value
        0_1523941019714_c8464f35-9cc7-4896-86b5-f07e3cd744f2-image.png


        Be aware of the Qt Code of Conduct, when posting : https://forum.qt.io/topic/113070/qt-code-of-conduct


        Q: What's that?
        A: It's blue light.
        Q: What does it do?
        A: It turns blue.

          Hi

          • This is probably the silliest question on the planet
            Oh no, not even close. :)

          Anyway, just want to say that
          QString also have
          http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qstring.html#toInt
          and toDouble
          for such conversations in case other time there
          is not a signal with the right type.
