Getting QWindow back into parent QWidget from the fullscreen
-
I have an object that subclasses QWindow. I add it into my QMainWindow's layout by wrapping it into QWidget container like this:
myWinContainer= QWidget::createWindowContainer(myWindow,this); vbox->addWidget(myWinContainer); myWinContainer->setFixedSize(640,360);
Then there is a fullscreen mode. I tried to set screen mode directly on myWindow (QWindow):
myWindow->setParent(nullptr); myWindow->showFullScreen();
The windows goes full screen all right. But I can't get it back into its widget when exiting from the full screen.
myWindow->setWindowState(Qt::WindowNoState); myWindow->setParent(p);//where p is cached pointer to parent: myWindow->parent() myWindow->showNormal();
The window stays detached from the main window.
Then I tried to do the full screen via myWindow's parent widget (myWinContainer). In this case, every time I am inserting myWinContainer back into its parent :
vbox->insertWidget(0,myWinContainer);
layout object, it crashes with some deep internal error.

Hi,
Since you are using layouts, you should first remove your widget from the layout, then do what you want and at the end put the widget back in the layout.
Hope it helps

It doesn't work. No matter what I do when exiting the fullscreen mode, an error thrown:
Program: D:\Qt\5.9.1\msvc2015_64\bin\Qt5Cored.dll
Module: 5.9.1
File: global\qglobal.cpp
Line: 3049
ASSERT: "toplevel->windowHandle()" in file kernel\qwindowcontainer.cpp, line 380Again,here is what I do when going full screen:
vbox->removeWidget(myWinContainer); myWinContainer->setParent(this,Qt::Tool);//also tried setParent(nullptr) myWinContainer->showFullScreen();
And getting back to normal mode:
myWinContainer->setWindowState(Qt::WindowNoState); vbox->insertWidget(0,myWinContainer); myWinContainer->showNormal(); //crashes here with above error
I feel like there is a bug at the level of qwindowcontainer.Because no matter what method I call on the QWindow instances owned by myWinContainer, it leads to the crash with the error above

Can you provide a minimal compilable example that shows that behaviour ?
-
Yes,sure.
Inside MainWindow (QMainWindow):
myWindow = new MyWindow(); // inherits from QWindow myWinContainer= QWidget::createWindowContainer(myWindow ,this); myWinContainer->setFixedSize(640,360); //layouts: vbox = new QVBoxLayout(); vbox->setAlignment(Qt::AlignHCenter); vbox->addWidget(myWinContainer); ui->centralWidget->setLayout(vbox);
Slot that enters/exits fullscreen mode for myWinContainer:
if( myWinContainer->windowState() == Qt::WindowFullScreen ) { myWinContainer->setParent(this); myWinContainer->setWindowState(Qt::WindowNoState); vbox->insertWidget(0,myWinContainer); } else { vbox->removeWidget(myWinContainer); // myWinContainer->setParent(nullptr);//doesn't help either myWinContainer->setParent(this,Qt::Tool); myWinContainer->showFullScreen(); }

That's not a compilable example.

Hi
it dont like some files. ( not for anyone at all )If possible use googledrive/dropbox or Github etc.
-
Hmm,indeed, DropBox is the option... Here is the link to the test prog that show the issue:

I don't know whether you are hitting an unusual code path or if there's really a bug. You should check the bug report system to see if there's something related.
In any case, since you are doing OpenGL with widgets, did you consider using QOpenGLWidget ?
On a side note, there's QOpenGLWindow that might also interest you.
-
If you check the code you see that the full screen problem error has no relation to OpenGL at all. What I see here is SDK bug. The reason I don't use any sort of widget is because I don't need all the pile of code which comes with QWidget. All I need is a thin GL surface to render to very very fast.So I guess that I need to file a bug?
-
What I see is that the assert comes from QWindowContainer which for some reason can't get a window handle from the top level widget. Hence my question whether you are hitting an unusual code path using QWindow as you do.
If you don't want widgets, then why are you using a QMainWindow ?
-
Simply that I don't know whether the top level widget handling works as expected and you are doing something wrong with your QWindow or if in fact you uncovered a use case not handled properly.

Hi i did run it on win 10, Qt 5.9/Qt 5.5 and
did have it crash consistently.
Also i removed much of the openGL code and seems not related to that at all unless
its some sort of hidden use or something i missed.It does smells like a (Qt) bug but I didn't get 100% proof.

Thanks for collaboration, guys. Submitted a bug:
