QLabel snap to ScrollBar

Mikeeeeee

How to set picture? Need a method to move from private to public?

mrjj

@Mikeeeeee
hi
yes you can make setImage public

Mikeeeeee

I did so:

    QImage mapImage(":/Images/Images/mapMain.png");
    ImageViewer* myImageViewer  = new ImageViewer();
    myImageViewer->setImage(mapImage);

I have a label: ui->labelMap
How do I set to myImageViewer to ui->labelMap?

mrjj

@Mikeeeeee
You cannot put whole viewer into a Label.
However, you can use myImageViewer instead of
ui->labelMap

Mikeeeeee

But how to use? How to do this?

mrjj

@Mikeeeeee
well do you have ui->labelMap in layout ?
then just insert myImageViewer into that.

Mikeeeeee

How to do this? I created ui->label Map in the designer.

mrjj

@Mikeeeeee
but is it a layout?

Mikeeeeee

I appent ui->label in the ui->gridLayout_2

Mikeeeeee

Also I have an empty ui->verticalLayout

mrjj

@Mikeeeeee said in QLabel snap to ScrollBar:

ui->gridLayout_2

ok then do
ui->gridLayout_2->addWidget(myImageViewer);
You can delete the label if u wish.

Mikeeeeee

Cool, works. And how to reconfigure the mouse wheel to zoom in?

mrjj

@Mikeeeeee
Its not a configure option. Its new code :)
You can override (add) wheelEvent ( QWheelEvent * event ) to the
ImageViewer class and change the size of the inner QLabel *imageLabel;
to create a zoom in effect.
Or create your on drawing function like here

Mikeeeeee

I tried to do so, but it does not work. Please tell me how to set up the signal?

connect(imageLabel, &QWidget:: wheelEvent(), this, &ImageViewer::zoomIn);

mrjj

@Mikeeeeee
Hi
Its not a signal but a virtual function.
You have to override it.

Right clik on the class name
alt text
Then select

and you get the function

protected:
    virtual void wheelEvent(QWheelEvent *event) override
    {
    }

Then do same right click again and select
alt text

to move the body of function to the cpp file.

Now you can try to implement your zoom.

Mikeeeeee

Thanks, did so and zoom works:

void ImageViewer::wheelEvent(QWheelEvent *event)
{
    zoomIn();
}

But how to add a slot to the reverse rotation of the mouse wheel?
And when I rotate the mouse wheel verticalScrollBar also receives a signal and moves. How to disable verticalScrollBar from (QWheelEvent *event)?

mrjj

wheelEvent

Hi
Both up and down comes to wheelEvent
check out.
event->delta()
it changes based on direction.


void ImageViewer::wheelEvent(QWheelEvent *event)
{
    qDebug() << " delta" << event->delta();
    qDebug() << " delta" << event->angleDelta();
    int nDeg = event->delta();
    if (nDeg > 0)
        zoomOut();
    else if (nDeg < 0)
        zoomIn();

    event->accept();
}

How to disable verticalScrollBar from (QWheelEvent *event)?

You can try to hide them.
scrollArea->setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy( Qt::ScrollBarAlwaysOff );
scrollArea->setVerticalScrollBarPolicy( Qt::ScrollBarAlwaysOff );
Else you need to use an event filter on the scrollarea's viewport to eat the
QWheelEvent events so it dont see them.

You do need event filer as not to have it scroll funny.

Add this to the class

bool ImageViewer::eventFilter(QObject *obj, QEvent *event)
{
    if (event->type() == QEvent::Wheel) {
        // Don't propagate
        return true;
    }
    // Other events should propagate
    return false;
}

and in its constructor, set the filter

scrollArea->viewport()->installEventFilter(this);

Then it zooms pretty fine :)

Mikeeeeee

Thanks so much. It works. Is it possible to split a QLabel on the coordinates 100*100 and add a small button on top of the QLabel ?

jsulm

@Mikeeeeee said in QLabel snap to ScrollBar:

split a QLabel

What does this mean?
Yes, you can put a button on top of a label.

Mikeeeeee

I need to bind the button to a specific area on the image. Please tell me how to do it?
