welcome to devnet
You can use several instances of "QTimer":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtcore/qtimer.html and connect to "timerEvent":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtcore/qtimer.html#timerEvent slot This is gives you a "QTimeEvent":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtcore/qtimerevent.html which helps you determining where it has been issued. Alternatively you can connect the timers already to different slots.

Oke,
If I understand you, you want a single timer for multiple objects??
solution:
connect the timeout() signal of the timer to multiple slots of the objects. Then thy will all be called on the same time interval.
On the other hand, why not generate a QImage or QObject class that is created when a button is clicked? In that class overwrite the timerEvent.
That is an other solution.
Next time if you ask a question, maybe add a picture what you want to achieve. Or maybe code samples what is not working.
