Wanting to connect a slider to a scroll area which contains buttons?
-
im sorry how would one go about doing that?? my guess is make a knew project and create a slider in the Designer and scroll area with a button and then give you the UI file?? :)
-
ah HA :D typical situwations :P
-
ok, I got it.
It's easy to solve you need to use layouts.
"Here is a good explanation on how to use them :":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/layout.htmli have made a simple ui file you can look into. A picture tells more than 1000 words.... ;)

There is also a slider example which may provide you already at least some of the logics you need.

Hi koahnig,
theblizzfreak just needs a QScrollarea with widgets in a layout.
@theblizzfreak
i suggest to look into the sliders example later on, which is more detailed and offers a lot to learn about signal and slots also. -
okay so how does one put a layout into a application and how does one structure it ;)
-
Oh okay thanks there Eddy :) helped me alot brb ill see if i can get it too work
-
okay im totally stumped i dont even know where to start do i make a class? or use the QT Designer? where do i put the class,etc

In Qt Designer there are buttons for that.
select the widgets you want in a layout and then click on one of the layout buttons.
"A Quick Start to Qt Designer":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/doc/qt-4.7/designer-quick-start.htmlyou can use the ui file i provided and replace it with the one you got by using the wizard to make a QMainwindow based program in Qt Creator.

okay i have my layout and my button in my layout i have my slider :) and i also have a scroll area under my layout : ) now what do i do? :D
-
haha np ill explain again basically i want a slider that makes my ScrollArea Window with buttons inside move up and down based on the slider :)
like the scroll bar on a webbrowser where you can go up and down the webpage but for buttons in an application :) thanks in advance if you need some visual examples ill get some pictures
-
how do i give the slider an action to make it move the buttons up or down on the vertical layout ?
i tried using the Signal and Slots editor but it dont make any sense to me accept that i can connect things together
-
yes :) iv looked at it but it all looks the same in terms of how i structure the gui ? what am i missing? this QT is very strange to work with

i don't understand this. Can you explain more?
Edit : please don't change your post afterwards. It makes things even more complicated to follow. Use the edit button on the right like I did.
-
when i look at your example and my example they look exactly the same the only difference is yours actually moves the buttons and i dont know how to do that? please can you tell me how you did it exactly and also tell me how you figured that out please thanks! :)
