@giorgik63 said in How to read selected value in widget properties in Qt Designer?: value selected in a list of elements shown in a property of a custom widget placed in Qt Designer Can you explain or show what list you mean? Edit: Seems to be related to this topic and will probably get answered there. https://forum.qt.io/topic/144783/how-to-manage-choice-item-property-my-plugin-in-qt-6-5

@SGaist Ok, after fiddling around with debugging and testing things, I believe I have solved it. So my thought process was the user inputs an IP Address 123.123.123.123 and before closing the popup numberpad, clicks on the different LineEdits to change the IP Mask 123.15.16.5. That is why I was checking if(num->isVisible()) because then it would close/delete/popup each time a LineEdit is clicked. I was having problems/segmentation faults because after the user clicks "Done" (or presses Enter/Return on the keyboard), the popup is deleted so checking isVisible()) resulted in errors. To fix this, I created a boolean value numVis that is true if the numberpad is visible, and false otherwise. It is this value that I am now checking and everything seems to work just fine. I hope this makes sense. I will go ahead and mark this as solved.

@Sh1gs Just as a note. There is no difference adding widgets in code or adding via Designer. The setupUI() as seen in mainwindow ctor creates the Designer widgets as code. So the only true difference is handwritten versus generated from UI file. Also adding via Designer, gives easier translations as the translate function is generated for the user.

Thank you @mrjj I will go ahead and mark this as solved then. I know my IP Editor isn't exactly elegant, but with the requirements I'm given and the restrictions, I've done the best I can.

Thanks for posting your solution. Happy coding.

I just tried the latest Qt 5.5 release an the Qt Creator that comes with this release. At least on Windows the QtQuick.Extras work out of the box. If you use an older Qt Creator the Extras are not part of Qt Creator and you have to build the qml2puppet as described above. For your own components which use C++ you should always build the qml2puppet.

I found a solution. I followed the below Steps: 1.Created a QtCreator Extension Plugin 2.In Pro file: Add uri = mycompany.qmlcomponents version =1.0 3.Added my CustomControl QML file. 4.Registered using qmlRegisterType 5.In qml dir: module mycompany.qmlcomponents plugin MyExtensionPlugin classname MyExtensionPlugin typeinfo mycompany.qmlcomponents designersupported 5.Wrote the MetaInfo file (myextensionplugin.metainfo): MetaInfo { Type { name: "mycompany.qmlcomponents.MyCustomItem" icon: "images/customitem-icon.png" ItemLibraryEntry { name: "CustomItem" category: "My Extension - Items" libraryIcon: "images/customitem-icon.png" version: "1.0" requiredImport: "mycompany.qmlcomponents" Property { name: "itemItext" type: "binding" value: "qsTr(\"Button\")" } } } } 6.Create a designer folder 7.Add following to designer.pri QML_FILES += $$PWD/CustomItemSpecifics.qml QML_FILES += $$PWD/myextensionplugin.metainfo QML_FILES += $$PWD/images/customitem-icon.png 8.Build and install 9.Generate qmltypes: [You can also do this during qmake] qmlplugindump mycompany.qmlcomponents1.0 > plugins.qmltypes 10.The controls will be available in the qml designer.
