New Wiki Page for absolute beginner.
-
Good idea indeed. Do a step by step how to add button into a forms. Discuss about button in detail. What happen during mouse down/up etc... in different OS. It will be great.
That's how the folks in codeproject.com did it. Beginner's article gets the most hit.

cool I'm in too if you need help

Go ahead and post the URL of you wiki page here, please!

[quote author="qmailago" date="1322055160"]Yes please, I badly needed it.[/quote]
[quote author="qxoz" date="1322064236"]Yes its realy good idea.
But what about realization?
How, where, when start?[/quote]In my opinion this page is a "good starting point for Qt 4.7":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/doc/qt-4.7/ :)

This might not be enough. There is a website in french that is really really awesome for absolute beginners : http://www.siteduzero.com/tutoriel-3-11240-introduction-a-qt.html
It is included in a C++ tutorial, but everything related to Qt is really really well explained. Maybe a wiki page that have this kind of style (tuto with exercises) might be interesting.

Yes, it's a great idea and a huge task to implement. I think you/we should make it real step by step. There are a few different ways to make it. The first is to make a linktree like progress map, using and updating the existing wikis. The second way is to write a new set of wikis with external references to other subject related wikis. The third way is a mix of the two., which is maybe the preferable.
I'm supporting this idea as it is a great idea and will improve existing basic wikis as well. Let me know if I can help in anything, I'll keep on eye on this thread ;)

BTW, I suck at english language, please correct me !
-
No problem there, I will occasionally check :) Just bump this topic from time to time to refresh my memory :D
-
I splitted the article into several ones, since it is going to be huge. I also added my draft plan in the wiki. If you want to add something, or move stuff, do it ! :)
BTW, is there a way to navigate easily between different articles that belong to the same group (like in wikipedia) ? Because I created my navigation system with some arrows, but it do not seems to be that convincing ...
TODO :
- present Qt Creator
- continue the pretty button part
