mac: QMessageBox setMinimumHeight / Width doesn't work??

[davecotter]

my dialog from xcode looks the way i want it:

Nice and large, buttons spaced exactly how the spec requires.
When i attempt to implement in Qt, it auto resizes like this:

now, at the constructor of the dialog i call this:

i_qDlg.setMinimumHeight(200);
i_qDlg.setMinimumWidth(480);

yet these calls are totally ignored? why?

i just need to write my own dialog, and not use QMessageBox

Hi,

Can you show the full code you are using to setup and show this dialog ?

[davecotter]

missing some but here's the gist:

QtDefaultWindowFlags are:
		  Qt::Window 
		| Qt::CustomizeWindowHint	//	this flag prevents user resizing
		| Qt::WindowTitleHint
		| Qt::Dialog;


QMessageBox		i_qDlg;

i_qDlg(
	QMessageBox::NoIcon, 
	QString(), QString(), 
	QMessageBox::NoButton, NULL, 
	QtDefaultWindowFlags()),

i_qDlg.setText(i_quick3CheckRec.titleStr);
i_qDlg.setInformativeText(i_quick3CheckRec.messageStr);
i_qDlg.setMinimumHeight(200);
i_qDlg.setMinimumWidth(482);

QHBoxLayout		*layoutP = NULL;

{
	QList<QHBoxLayout *>		list(i_qDlg.findChildren<QHBoxLayout *>());
	
	CF_ASSERT(list.size() == 1);
	layoutP = list[0];
}

for (int _indexS: KQuick3_Result_NUMTYPES) {
	DialogItemIndex		itemS = Q3C_ItemID_Button_1 - _indexS;
	const SuperString&	buttonStr(i_quick3CheckRec.buttonRecA[_indexS].buttonStr);

	if (buttonStr.empty()) {
			layoutP->addSpacing(80);
		//	i_pushButtonA[_indexS] = i_qDlg.addButton("", QMessageBox::ActionRole);
		//	i_pushButtonA[_indexS]->hide();
	} else {
		i_pushButtonA[_indexS] = i_qDlg.addButton(buttonStr, QMessageBox::ActionRole);
	}
}

i_qDlg.Run();
