Using Absolute Positioning of a QWidget inside a QMainWindow
-
This post has been revised. See the new
"**Revised Question Here **":http://qt-project.org/forums/viewthread/29465/Very new to QT and ask to be pointed in the right direction. Thanks!
I have a QMainWindow that is roughly 1280x1024.
@
QScreen screen = qApp->screens().at(0);
QMainWindow display = new QMainWindow();
display->setGeometry(screen->geometry());
display->setWindowTitle(screen->name());
display->show();
@This works as intended, I get a nice window that is the appropriate size. Life is Good.
After this, I try to add a QWidget to the QMainWindow.
@
QWidget *c = new QWidget(display);
@I then try to set the Geometry(top left coordinate, height, width) of the QWidget.
@
c->setGeometry(100, 100, 200, 200);
@This did not work as intended. It set the size to 200x200, which is great. However, it put it in the top left corner of the window.
So, I tried this, with the same result.
@
c->resize(200,200);
c->move(100,100);
@I added combinations of the following to no avail.
@
display->repaint();
//and
c->repaint();
@I would appreciate any help. Thanks!
