Which output (display) widget are available.

ACalcaterra

Hi,
sorry to ask a really simple question: but what if I want to display in a widget a float number produced in my code?
The only thing I find for this is a LCD_display that i don't like much.
Is not there something like a QtLineEdit (same fonts) that does not accept
mouse focus, or keystrokes? (maybe with a grayed out background, but not essential)
Thank you!
I use QtCreator 2.5.2, Qt version is 4.8.6, last one that works in Scientific Linux 6. Going forward from this is quite painful because of upgrading gcc.

@ACalcaterra If your just want to show the value, take a QLabel and format the float value as string.

QLabel *myLabel = new QLabel(this);
myLayout->addWidget(myLabel);
myLabel->setText(QString::number(myFloat, 'f', 2));

Hello,
You probably want QLabel. It's simplistic, but it's the simplest display widget out there. You can also use a QLineEdit that has its readOnly property set.

Kind regards.
