I want to write a code that increases the value in the line edit when the checkbox is clicked.

jsulm

@wtimm Connect a slot to https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qabstractbutton.html#clicked signal ofrom your check box. In that slot get the value of the line edit using https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qlineedit.html#text-prop. Convert that text to number using https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qstring.html#toInt. Increment this number and set it again in your text edit using https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qstring.html#number-1 and https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qlineedit.html#text-prop

If your line edit only accepts numbers you should use https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qspinbox.html instead.

I want it to increase from U12C5 to U12C6 but when I write the code it returns 1. Is it possible to do what I want in qt

JonB

@wtimm
Please paste code text not screenshots, so others can copy/paste etc.

QString::number(+1) does not add one to anything. And you cannot directly add 1 to U12C5 anyway, since it is not a number. Either convert to a number, add to it, and convert it back to whatever your string represents, or write some code to add to U12C5 in whatever way your addition is supposed to work.

wtimm

what should i do to increase the value in such expression?

JonB

@wtimm
For that 1111, which is now a number, you could use something like:

auto val = ui->lineEdit->text().toInt();
val += ui->spinBox->value();
ui->lineEdit->setText(QString::number(val));

However, there is something hokey about trying to use a QSpinBox, with its own value and a button, to increase a number in a QLineEdit. In the example you now show, why not make Serial Number a QSpinBox itself and dispense with the separate incrementer and pushbutton?

wtimm

ui->spinBox->setValue(08246);

The code throws an error when I enter such a value, so I thought it would be better to use QLineEdit.

wtimm

what can i do so that the leading zero doesn't go away

J.Hilk

@wtimm

auto val = ui->lineEdit->text().toInt();
auto originalLength = ui->lineEdit->text().length();
val += ui->spinBox->value();
ui->lineEdit->setText(QString::number(val).rightJustified(originalLength, '0'));

@wtimm said in I want to write a code that increases the value in the line edit when the checkbox is clicked.:

ui->spinBox->setValue(08246);
The code throws an error when I enter such a value

The code throws an error? At runtime? Don't you mean the compiler throws an error on this? 08246 as a C++ literal is octal, because of the leading 0, and then 8 is not a valid digit in base 8!

If you want to retain a leading 0, so it's not "really" "just" a number, that is harder (also in a QSpinBox if you changed to use that, though still doable). As it is, this is why @J-Hilk's code shows how to achieve it.

if i use originalLength function i got use of undeclared identifier 'originalLength' error

@wtimm Do you have this in your code?

It's not a "function". So how did you get "undeclared identifier"?

wtimm

you are right it is not a function , thanks all of you for your help

wtimm

how can i see '0547' as default value when i run the project again

JonB

@wtimm
Well you need to save that value to some permanent storage to be able to retrieve it next time! Unless you are using a database in your application Qt's QSettings is the most convenient way.

wtimm

int v = settings.value(number(val),defaultValue).toInt();

I wrote such a code but it didn't work.
When I save the increased value, how can I make the increased value show as default when I open the project again?

Save the increased (always the current) value when you close your project?!

Meaning what? Please don't just say "it didn't work" if you want people to understand enough to help. Your code shows reading back a value. How do we know what you saved where how? Did you look in the external INI file or Windows Registry to see what is there which has been saved?

Read it back in somewhere at startup and set the widget's value from the previously saved.

wtimm

@Pl45m4 how can i save this , may i use QSettings or different class

JonB

@wtimm Already told you to save it via QSettings, there really isn't anything else to say....
