How to programmatically resize QProgressDialog

xalam

I create QProgressDialog but from parent window but I would like the default size to be be little bigger than what it comes up with. How can I change that?

@ progress = (QSharedPointer<QProgressDialog>) new QProgressDialog("Creating files...", "Cancel", 1, numFiles, this, Qt::Dialog) ;
progress->setAutoClose( false );
progress->setMinimumDuration(0);
progress->setWindowModality(Qt::WindowModal);
progress->setModal( true );
progress->setAutoReset( false );@

progress->resize(progress->size() + QSize(20. 20));

That somehow doesn't compile! I had to do the following along similar lines as you did but I don't know why your line doesn't compile:

@ QSize size = progress->size(); //+ QSize(20. 20);
size.setWidth( size.width() + 180);
progress->resize( size );@

Hi,

What error did you got ?

The problem is the point in the QSize constructor.

Try using comma instead:
@progress->resize(progress->size() + QSize(20, 20));@

Oops, indeed, a typo. My bad.

Yes that was it! I just copy/pasted it and didn't realize it should be comma but that fixed it.
