@legitnameyo This is not how it works. You will need to subclass QPushButton and override http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qwidget.html#mousePressEvent
You can find an example here: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwidgets-widgets-scribble-example.html

@jsulm thanx bro :)

just use the filePath without further modification, its already the complete path.
This code

QDir d = QFileInfo(filePath).absoluteDir(); QString absolute=d.absolutePath();

will lead you to the dir above the selected path...

Yeah when meta compiler doesn't run, it all get a bit strange. :)

In first post , under it. to the right. is Topic Tools button. It can mark as solved.

In the constructor or in the showEvent ?

Maybe there's a widget that you didn't put into a layout? The default position of such widget is in the upper left corner and the 100px sound like some default size.

Try adding this in your main:

qApp->setStyleSheet("QWidget { border: 2px solid red;}");

This should put a red frame around every widget so you'll see if anything's there.
