How to Add Custom Class to Qt Designer/Edit Layout Outside of Qt Designer

[pistorinoj]

I am using VS2015 C++ with Qt 5.11.0 and am using Qt Designer to layout the UI.

In the UI, I have images that are displayed using QLabel. I want the user to be able to click on these images and different actions take place. It seems many people need this functionality and I followed some of the guides, such as: https://wiki.qt.io/Clickable_QLabel for adding it. I now have a new class called Clickablelabel that should do the trick.

Now, how do I s substitute the new class for the existing Qlabels in Qt Designer?
Alternatively, how do I edit the resulting ui files from Qt Designer to specify the new class?

Thanks for any help.

Code your derived class. Use the promotion feature in Designer to make the existing label an instance of your sub-class. The promotion dialog can be found on the right-click context menu in Designer.

is from a while ago, but if it still works sounds like what you want...

That appears to be it.
