GUI help

mrjj

then there are not the arrows at the top right

The small arrows to navigate the pages are ONLY shown in Designer.
When app is run, they are not shown as you are expected to handle the navigation
by other means. (your own buttons etc)

ok thank you for all the help you have done for me. in this topic I have about the last question.
is it going to link QT with sql?

for example. if I wanted to make a login, fill in the name, year of birth, etc. and "select one item from 30" from database in sql. and then you open gui according to what you "select one item from 30"? if you disagree with the description in more detail

SGaist

Please, take the time to search the documentation. Qt provides its SQL module.

caca0o

and is it possible to download SQL directly from qt?
or do I have to download my sql?

@caca0o said in GUI help:

That's really not clear. Download what ?

caca0o

is some QT SQL? or I have to download SQL on their official websites?

SGaist

There's no "Qt SQL". As written before, Qt has the SQL module which provides plugin for various database systems available like PostgreSQL, SQLite, MySQL etc. Taking a look at the module documentation, and more specially the SQL Database Drivers chapter would have answered that question.

By the way, it's Qt, QT stands for Apple's QuickTime which is likely not what you want to use.

caca0o

ok. but I can not find a file to download so I can create the db in it

SGaist

Because it's up to you to setup your system with PostgresSQL, MySQL or whatever database system you want/need that is supported by Qt.

SQLite doesn't required any external stuff as it's using a file for the database itself.

caca0o

ok I understand it. of course, I can insert db from SQLite into GUI and qt
I hope I do not have much questions

SGaist

Take a look at the module and classes documentation as well as the examples. They use SQLite so developers don't need to install anything special to run them.

caca0o

I'm still asking. do i make a qt gui game for a sports manager?

SGaist

That wasn't your original question. Anyway, why wouldn't you ?

caca0o

I would like to work on the introductory menus. when I have a button start game and then select options etc. do I have to do it as new sources? here is probably not the stacked widget.

SGaist

Don’t try to fit everything in one widget. That would end up a sort of Frankenmonster.

Take the time to cut your application in logical pieces. Then write your widgets.

caca0o

so you recommend more Sources cpp files. I understand it well?

SGaist

If recommend a clean design so yes you are going to end up with several classes and thus several header and source files.

caca0o

OK thank you. so it is good to separate this apart. for example, the main menu from the game and the main menus from select options.

I would be interested.
gui game itself is about to work well through the stacked widget. when it comes to a game of sports manager

caca0o

I would still be interested. are they going to combine the .pro files, or do I need them or do I need to have the whole game in .cpp?

caca0o

or whether they are going to combine two projects into one another
