    yes but work only with a pusbutton click

    i think that i have to use the click event for enable / disable in real time

    but combobox is added dinamically in runtime..

    i've tried with:

    connect(array_Fornitore[i], SIGNAL(clicked()), this, SLOT(ATTDIS(int i)));
    

    Dialog .cpp

        void ATTDIS(int i) {
        if (array_Origine[i].currentText == "ESTERNA") {
            array_Fornitore[i]->setDisabled(false);
        }
        if (array_Origine[i].currentText == "INTERNA") {
            array_Fornitore[i]->setDisabled(true);
        }
    }
    }
    

    dialog .h

    void ATTDIS(int i);
    

    but don't work..
    (array_Origine[i] use of undeclared identifier)
    (array_Fornitore[i] use of undeclared identifier)
    how can i pass array_Orgine[i] and array_Fornitore[i] to the function??

    No offence intended, but from the same sort of thing in your previous posts you might like to read up on variable scope. And if you do understand that for normal variables, exactly the same applies when they are arrays.

    Rather than worrying about how to pass these arrays as parameters each time to slots and other individual functions, wouldn't your code logic be simpler if they were defined as member variables of your class (the dialog)?

      this is my dialog .h:

      class inserisciarticolo : public QDialog
      {
          Q_OBJECT
      
      public:
          explicit inserisciarticolo(QWidget *parent = nullptr);
          ~inserisciarticolo();
      
      
      private slots:
      
          void on_pushButton_Annulla_clicked();
      
          void on_pushButton_Inserisci_clicked();
      
          //void ATTDIS(int i);
      
      private:
          Ui::inserisciarticolo *ui;
      
          QSqlDatabase aDatabase;
          QSqlQuery *aModel;
      
          //Array Componenti
          QLineEdit *array_Codice[10];
          QLineEdit *array_Descrizione[10];
          QSpinBox *array_Qta[10];
          QComboBox *array_Origine[10];  //<--------------------
          QComboBox *array_Fornitore[10]; //<------------------

        @TheCipo76 said in comboBox runtime enable/disable:

        connect(array_Fornitore[i], SIGNAL(clicked()), this, SLOT(ATTDIS(int i)));

        You need to capture the var i in a lambda:

        connect(array_Fornitore[i], &QComboBox::clicked, [i]() 
        { 
        ATTDIS(i);
        });

          it's very interesting..

          i can capture i var and pass it to a slot function
          if i have understand..

          but once i have done it what i have to do??
          slot function do what i need?

            The lambda function becomes the slot function.
            You probably need to capture 'this' as well to get access to methods and vars of the class instance.

                  i've tried with this code:

                  connect(array_Origine[i], SIGNAL(currentTextChanged(QString)) [i] () { ATTDIS(i);} );

                  but give me this error:

                  called object type 'char' is not a function or function pointer

                  how can i solve it??

                  void inserisciarticolo::ATTDIS(int i)

                            Finally works!

                            i passed no parameters to the function ATTDIS():

                            call the function then
                            i check with a loop all members of array (with "for" i index) and when
                            find "ESTERNA" enable comboFornitore[i]
                            when find "INTERNA" disable comboFornitore[i]

                            Thanks to all for patience and help gived

                              Hi! You can also try to disable/enable the specific item of QComboBox like this:

                              Disable:

                              qobject_cast<QStandardItemModel*>(comboBox->model())->item(0)->setEnabled(false);
                              

                              Enable:

                              qobject_cast<QStandardItemModel*>(comboBox->model())->item(0)->setEnabled(true);
                              

                              This code disables/enables the first combobox item.

                              Also if you want to disable/enable the combobox, you can simplify it with connects. For example, when you select the value from the 1st combobox (signal activated) then emit your signal to disable the second combobox.
