        write and read under eachother? (10,11)
        line 40 looks strange, you read the setting using a string red?

                      Hi imrrk,

                      Where do you call readSettings()? It is commented out at the constructor.

                      Regards,
                      Leon

                        Do you really expect being taken serious when crying like a childish kiddie? Come on, get serious!

                        -And look at your code if it is ever able to do what you expect it to do!-

                        -Or better: Use a debugger, set breakpoints and step through the code. You will find the error yourself then within seconds.-

                        -Hopefully nobody will tell you the solution here, as it has no learning effect.-

                        EDIT: wrong read of code, sorry

                              I personally would do something with the color read from the settings....

                                Hi volker thanks for your reply,you mean to say that

                                @QColor r("red");
                                r.name();
                                settings.setValue("color",r.name());@
