Solved Tab text gets cut off with a new line charater QTabWidget

[Jdawg287]

I am developing a chat application and need to display the name and id for each contact on a different tab. So, I am using a new line character to separate the name and the id and setting the result as the title of the tab as follows:

bool MessengerPage::addNewTab(const Contact& contact)
{
    std::string tabTitle = contact.getName();
    tabTitle.append("\n");
    tabTitle.append(contact.getUid());

    QListView* messengerListView = new QListView();
    getListViewModel(messengerListView);
    this->tabs->addTab(messengerListView, QString::fromStdString(tabTitle));
    contactsList.insert(std::pair<std::string, Contact>(contact.getUid(), contact));
    return true;
}

QListView is being used to display all the messages in the code above.
Now since this is a project for multiple platforms, I need this to work for all platforms.
Until now I had no problem for the display on Linux as can be seen:

But it is being displayed as follows on MacOS:

I have tried solutions which require fiddling with the CSS but to no avail.
Does anybody have any idea how to fix this? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,

Did you try to set the elideMode property to Qt::ElideNone ?

@SGaist Wow thanks that just did it!
You are a life saver. Thanks!

This is the fix:

this->tabs->setElideMode(Qt::ElideNone);

Marking this as solved
