      Hi,

      I have my wedding in two weeks and I want to set up a photo booth. I have the setup done but now I am thinking of a small interface.
      I want to connect a PC or Mac to the camera (Nikon D550) and the printer (Polaroid PoGo). Every time a picture is recorded with the camera, the full screen UI should show this picture full screen (just show the newest picture in a specified folder).
      There should basically only be one big button flowing over the image that says “print” which will then send the picture to the PoGo printer.

      As I am no big programmer, is there anyone willing to help me with this? Would be really awesome :D

      Thank you so much,
      JRS

        Hey,

        I just made a little research and what I found so far:

        Watch for an added file with QFileSystemWatcher::directoryChanged and printing with QPrinter.
        I will now try to use those classes and see how far I can get.

        I then want to show the file that just has been added to the directory with QImage and QLabel.

        Is there a better way to do this?
        The button should then be a QPushButton with set alpha value.

        I will give it a try :)

        Thank for any comment :P

        Best,
        JRS
