How to set default geometry my widget ? Why doesn't work savegeometry() and restoregeometry() ?

Mucahit

Hi all,

I'm struggling to set my window to default geometry. I can't save geometry settings and load settings. I want to move some buttons and then set them to default position. I would be happy if anyone help. Thank you . My code is below :

       #include "kaliteform.h"

	#include "ui_kaliteform.h"

	#include<QSettings>

	int buyutec=0;

	MainWindow::MainWindow(QWidget *parent) :

	QMainWindow(parent),

	ui(new Ui::MainWindow)

	{

	ui->setupUi(this);

	}



	void kaliteform::on_pushButton_geometry_clicked()

	{

	int kalan=buyutec%2;

		if(kalan==0)

		{

		savescreen();

		ui->pushButton_test->setGeometry(10,10,10,10);

		ui->pushButton_test1->setGeometry(20,20,20,20);

		ui->pushButton_test2->setGeometry(20,20,20,20);

		}

	

		else

		{

		loadscreen();

		}

	}



	void kaliteform::savescreen()

	{

	QSettings settings("MyCompany", "MyApp");

	settings.setValue("geometry", saveGeometry());

	settings.setValue("windowState", saveState());

	}

	void kaliteform::loadscreen()

	{

	QSettings settings("MyCompany", "MyApp");

	restoreGeometry(settings.value("myWidget/geometry").toByteArray());

	restoreState(settings.value("myWidget/windowState").toByteArray());

	}

Please use the code - tags for formatting so we can properly read your code.

Sorry, i fixed it.

This is not fixed - this is even worse. Can you please take a look on what you've written and tell us how this should be readable by others? Please be a little bit more careful.

Where do you modify buyutec?

I have only one goal. Return the button I moved to its initial default position.

I don't see how save/restoreGeometry() should affect a child at all.

btw: Don't use hard-coded geometry values but proper layouts.

Sir I'm not sure I'll use savegeometry() and loadgeometry() exactly, please don't stick with the above code. I have only one request. A button, for example, initially in position 0.0. How do I set this button to its default position after moving it to the 10,10 position first? Can i do it without using this way ? :

oldpos=ui->pushButton_test->geometry();

Because I have too many buttons, I can't assign each position to a variable. I'm sorry for my bad english. Please help me.

So in summary I want to bring a button I moved back to its original position. That's all.

You either have to use a proper layout (highly recommended) or move all buttons to the position you want to by your own.
