Threaded message conversation view

[psbhardwaj09gmail.com]

Hi All,

Currently I’m working with message views. I have to make a Threaded message conversation view (as in android and I-phone).

This is to be done without using QML, So please give me suggestion about this.
Thanks in advance.

Probably with "QGraphicsView":http://doc.qt.digia.com/stable/qgraphicsview.html

I would rather use "Qt Style Sheets":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtwidgets/stylesheet.html to customize "QScrollArea":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtwidgets/qscrollarea.html with "QLabels":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtwidgets/qlabel.html or "QListView":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtwidgets/qlistview.html.

Do you mean the text balloons view you get for SMS messages?

I have seen ready-made examples for that, but it would be easy with QGraphicsView. Or, you use a QListView with a custom delegate.

Hi Andre,

Can u give me link for above example.

No. What have you tried so far? Did you look into QGraphicsView and related classes? Did you study how to make a custom delegate for an item view?
