when i write text on QLineEdit that text shows on QLabel

dheerendra

Did you study signal & slots topic ? Did you see signals in lineedit and slots in labels? These two hints should be able to solve your issue.

Dimple

MainWindow.h

signals:
void textChanged(const QString &text);

//public slots:
//void recvText(const QString &text);


private slots:
  void on_pushButton_clicked();

  void on_lineEdit_textChanged(const QString &text);

  void on_label_linkActivated(const QString &link);

MainWindow.cpp

   connect(ui->lineEdit,SIGNAL(textChanged(QString)),
          ui->label,SLOT(linkActivated(QString)));

// connect(ui->lineEdit,SIGNAL(textChanged(QString)),
    //      ui->label,SLOT(on_label_linkActivated(QString)));

}

MainWindow::~MainWindow()
{
    delete ui;
}

void MainWindow::on_pushButton_clicked()
{
ui->lineEdit->show();
ui->label->show();


}

void MainWindow::on_lineEdit_textChanged(const QString &text)
{
   // emit textChanged(const QString  &text);
   // QString text = lineedit->text();
     emit textChanged(text);

     ui->label->show();

}

void MainWindow::on_label_linkActivated(const QString &text)
{
    QString input= text;
    ui->label->clear();
    ui->label->setText(input);
    ui->label->update();
    ui->label->show();

}

can u guess my mistakes pls?

I don't see anything related to QListWidget here...

Dimple

on ui page i took QListWidget ,,,on qlist widget i placed QPushbutton ,QLineEdit & QLabel

can u pls send correct code ??

VRonin

Do you want a button and a label for each element in your list or just 1?

Dimple

Thanks for ur reply,,
No need pushbutton ,,,only QLineEdit & QLabel,,,when i text anything on QLineEdit that text should shows on QLabel thatsit ,,,

already when i clicked on QPushButton ,,,QLineEdit is showing ,,after write some text on QLineEdit that text should shows on Qlabel

@Dimple
Hi
and what does the QListWidget do ?

Dimple

After input some text in edittext, QLabel will be changed with this text in QListWidgetItem.

VRonin

Do you want to add items to the list?
Should the button enable the editing of existing items?
Do you really need the button (QListWidget by default does what you want on existing items)?

Dimple

-> yes ,, i want to add items to the list .
->i want to add some sample datas(EX: Hi ,,hello,,999,,22...etc)
just for testing

Actually the goal we must to do is adding and updating contacts in contacts listwidget.

VRonin

ok, delete your label, lineedit, and pushbutton. try putting in your constructor

ui->listwidget->model()->insertRows(0,10);

Now there should be 10 blank "labels" in your list widget, if you doubleclick on them a lineedit appears to let you change it and when you move away it goes back into "label mode". All 100% already managed by QListWidget. Is this what you were looking for?

Actually the goal we must to do is adding and updating contacts in contacts listwidget.

To add a new line you have 2 options:

a button that adds a new line
a system that creates a "ghost line" at the end that, when edited will become a real line (more or less like MS Access lets you change tables)

Dimple

suppose if i type 1 it shows on qlistwidget ,,
next i ll type 2 then on QListWidget shows in order one by one
ex: 1
2

when i type then only it should display in order one by one ,,this is i wanted ???

VRonin

I'm not sure I understand the question, sorry...

@VRonin
There's some sort of "history" mechanism going on here. The user types something somewhere, it is to be added to this list as the first item. User then types something again, this gets added as the next item in the list.... :)

So to the OP, @Dimple: you need to write code so that after each text entered in the line edit it should insert/append one additional row, setting that row's text from the line edit.

Dimple

@VRonin : its ok

@JonB : thanks for ur reply ,,im a fresher ,,,can u please if u have a code share with me ??

Hi,

Did you took a look at the the example code in QListWidget's documentation ? It shows how to add new items.

Dimple

@SGaist
yes ,,,i added this code now whatever i text ,,,everything is adding in list in order but i want to make it whatever i text ,,that text shows first ??
void MainWindow::on_add_clicked()
{
QString text=ui->lineEdit->text();
QListWidgetItem * item = new QListWidgetItem(text);
item->setFlags(item->flags() | Qt::ItemIsEditable);
ui->listWidget->addItem(item);
ui->lineEdit->clear();
}

mrjj

@Dimple
Hi
There are in the order you addItem them.
However, there is also
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qlistwidget.html#insertItem
which allows you to insert at any row you want and hence put on top if you wish.

Dimple

@mrjj thanks for ur reply & thank u all ,,,
i changed two lines of code,,,now whatever i text ,,that is showing first ,,,this is i wanted anyway thanku all for ur reply ,,i got output wat i wanted!
