How to always fix the button to the right side using QtDesigner?
-
Hello. I have a GUI where a button always needs to be fixed to the right side of the screen, but when I change the window size the button does not follow the right edge of the screen. I am a beginner, it seems to me a simple problem for those who are already veterans, how can I solve this problem?
the button should not be in the middle of the bar, but pasted on the right edge of the GUI.

Assuming you are saying you are designing this in Creator/Designer, are you using layouts? -

Assuming you are saying you are designing this in Creator/Designer, are you using layouts?@JonB The main screen has a layout in lines, only has 2 lines: the text editor and the bottom bar. Only this line layout is set in this GUI

So what have you done in the designer to tell it where you want the button?Also you say
where a button always needs to be fixed to the right side of the screen,
the button does not follow the right edge of the screen.and also
fix the button to the left side using QtDesigner
the button should not be in the middle of the bar but pasted to the left edge of the GUIso I don't know which you want.

GUI where a button always needs to be fixed to the right side of the screen
Those do not seem consistent to me. As per @mpergand, are your "bottom bar and the button in a horizontal layout"?

@JonB maybe, this will help you understand my layout.

@JonB in the frame of the bottom bar has no vertical or horizontal layout

And the "red no entry" symbol Designer shows on theQFramewarns you that it needs a layout. -

Put the bottom bar and the button in a horizontal layout.@mpergand said in How to always fix the button to the right side using QtDesigner?:

Put the bottom bar and the button in a horizontal layout.Then if you want the button on the right, I can't remember whether the layout allows you to right align, or put a stretch to the left if not.

Yes you can.
Now, this bottom bar ressembles very much to a QStatusBar in a QMainWindow and you can add any widget to it with:
addPermanentWidget(QWidget *widget, int stretch = 0) -
