[Solved] List of all members, including inherited members in devnet docs

"In the old docs there was a link :":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qtableview.html
List of all members, including inherited members
This gave "as a result all members":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qtableview-members.html of the selected class, even the inherited ones.

For instance : QTableView is inherited from QAbstractItemView, which has setAlternatingRowColors ( bool ) as a member. You will see it in the above mentioned overview.

Now, in "the new devnet docs ":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/doc/qt-4.7/qtableview.html I don't see how I can get on overview off all members(also the inherited ones). Of course i can use the expand icon, but this doesn't give me the setAlternatingRowColors ( bool )

Am I missing something or has it dissapeared? I want to know for sure before adding a request in Jira.

Hi Eddy! Indeed such a link is missing. Please feel free to add a request in JIRA.

Hi Sean,

I just needed someone with the eyes of a hawk to second it ;)

Cool. Voted for it in JIRA.

I would like to know the status for this one.

Today the docs for Qt4.8 are moved to devnet and this feature is something i really miss in the new docs format.

I will also put my hand up on the need for the "including inherited members".

This morning was a surprise to find the documentation had been updated. For the most part, the new layout I give a thumbs up for, however I would think most developers using Qt would be very dependent on having the inherited members.
Thank you Mad Scientist for the link above.

Thanks,

In that case please vote for it using the link above ;)
We need votes to make the elves make it happen.

Make sure you are voting it up at the "Bug report page":https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTWEBSITE-265 (the vote link is in the upper right side of that page), and not just here in the forums.

Thanks Chris.
I didn't notice everyone was using the thum up here in the forum. That mechanism is only used in conjunction with the tagging system. If you search using a tag, the results with the most forum votes is shown first and ordered in that way.

As an additional information for new devnet members: to vote on the bugtracker you have to register there too. Your membership on devnet is not enough. It is advised to use the same email address there as you use here. It doesn't take much time to register there also ;)

Thanks folks, this issue is definitely on the radar. CSI Oslo is on the case looking for the missing members.

Thanks for the feedback Marius.

We have easily doubled the traffic now that 4.8 doc lives here - so don't be shy on the feedback, we want the awesome Qt documentation to also be awesomely presented :)

PS: posting from 10 972 m above Finland somewhere moving at 782 km/h, free wifi on a plane, how cool is that :)

I knew it! You're not a troll but an elve, because you can fly ;)

The list of all members, including inherited members, is back in action for the 4.8 doc: http://developer.qt.nokia.com/doc/qt-4.8/qtableview.html . 4.7 to follow.

Great! Thanks!

Note that I fixed the link to actually work. Adding a period (.) after a URL does not work.

Thanks Marius!

that is an important christmas gift for a lot of us.

Just one question :
Is it supposed to have the old docs look back again or is the new look combined with this link something for the near future?

mgran · wrote on 23 Dec 2011, 14:39

We had some issues with the new look that we will work on behind the scenes - but until it is 100% awesome we have the traditional look up. Good and familiar for everyone :)
