    I have a QStackWidget in my programm with many QWidgets inside and I need to save the history, which QWidgets were shown behind each other. How can I solve this problem?

      Hi,

      One possibility is to use a QVector. You'll append to it the index of the widget you are going to show each time you change it.

          How are you going to change the widgets of your QStackWidget ?

            If a Buttons is released the widgets of my QStackWidget change. But I think the index of each Widget in the QStackWidgets doesn´t change right?

              No it doesn't however. When you change the front facing widget a.k.a current widget, the current index changes to match the one of the front facing widget.

                    In Main:

                    QStackedWidget* stackedWidget = new QStackedWidget;
                    stackedWidget->addWidget(addAvailbaleFoodView);
                    stackedWidget->addWidget(errorview);
                    stackedWidget->addWidget(homeView);
                    stackedWidget->addWidget(errorWithSolutionView);
                    stackedWidget->showMaximized();

                    For example class AddAvailableFoodView:
                    AddAvailableFoodView::AddAvailableFoodView(QStackedWidget* stackedWidget, QStringList* stringList,SearchModel* searchmodel,DefinedFoodModel* definedFoodModel, QWidget parent) :
                    QWidget(parent)
                    {
                    _searchModel = searchmodel;
                    _definedFoodModel = definedFoodModel;
                    _wholeLayout = new QGridLayout;
                    MenuBarView
                    menuBar = new MenuBarView(stackedWidget,stringList,"Lebensmittel dem Vorrat hinzufügen");
                    _wholeLayout->setMenuBar(menuBar);
                    _wholeLayout->addWidget(createFirstInput());
                    setLayout(_wholeLayout);
                    }

                    On MenuBar there is a Button, which can show the Widget before ( "back"-button), but this MenuBar is on each Widget. If somebody pushes on the first Widget the "back"-button, I need the Widget which was shown before, but if somebody pushes the "back"-button on this Widget, I don´t want to get to the Widget, where I first pushed the "back"- button, I need to know where I was two Widgets before.

                      Then why not just compute the next or previous index ?

                        Sometimes there is not only one possibility which widget there was before

                          If your buttons just moves to the next or previous widget, then why the need of that history ?
