    Hi,
    is there any possibility to add/display a custom property in Qt designer for a custom widget.

      What do you mean specifically by a custom property in this case? Do you mean the properties you have added yourself, or do you mean a property with a non-standard type?

        Let's say i have the following class:
        @
        class TextPair {
        int number;
        QString text;
        }
        @

        The custom widget has a property of type TextPair.

        All i want is in the property editor of that widget a tree like setting:
        TextPair

        • number
        • text

        It should be very similar to a QString or a QRect property.

        Edit: please use @ tags around code sections; Andre

          As far as I know, that is not possible unfortunately.

              Note that that doesn't mean that your widget can't have such a property. Just that you can't set it directly from designer.

                Thanks for the additional info, but I require it available through the designer for the design team.
