Hello
I had a question, I hope you can help,
I have set it to take 15 characters in line edit, I want the period to be entered only once, otherwise it will give a warning when "more than one point is entered", can you help with this?
thanks .

int i=ui->lineEdit->Text().length();
if(i>=15)
{
qDebug()<<"more than one point is entered.";
}

like this?

@Emre-MUTLU

thank you for replying
I mean, "When I enter the number 15.96, the transactions continue"
"I want it to give an error when 15.9.6. is entered in this way"
thank you for helping

Hello!

If you want to check the numbers in your QLineEdit, I would suggest to set the validator for example - QDoubleValidator: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qdoublevalidator.html
For int value, there is QIntValidator: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qintvalidator.html#details

@Emre-MUTLU
can you please explain more

[Emre MUTLU]

Do you want to separate by dots ? or value ? i don't get this

[muhammed hayr]

@Emre-MUTLU
I want only one point to be entered
I want it to give an error even though more than one point is entered

[Emre MUTLU]

There are better ways but this came to mind.

QString str=ui->lineEdit->Text();
QStringList list;
for(int i=0;i<ui->lineEdit->Text().Length();i++)
{
list=str.split(".");
}
if(list.Length()>2)
{
qDebug()<<" more than one point is entered";
}

Hi,

Why not use a QDoubleSpinBox for your number input ?

[muhammed hayr]

@SGaist
can you give an example

[jsulm]

@muhammed-hayr If you open the link @SGaist gave you you will find a link "Spin Boxes Example"...

@Emre-MUTLU Why the loop?

Shorter version:

QString text = myLineEdit.text();

if (2 < text.split('.', Qt::KeepEmptyParts).length())
    // Display your warning

The cleaner way would be a RegEx validator in my opinion. Although this here should work and would be way less effort, haha.
