Why when I run code bellow, I don't have close button, like on this screenshot?
There is also no close button with other flags, like Qt::WindowMinimizeButtonHint or Qt::WindowMinMaxButtonsHint and other.
#include <QApplication>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
QWidget wgt;
wgt.setWindowFlags(Qt::Window | Qt::WindowMaximizeButtonHint);
wgt.show();
return a.exec();
}
Close button is available with wgt.setWindowFlag(Qt::Window). Even without wgt.setWindowFlag() is still available. But as soon as I add second flag like Qt::WindowMaximizeButtonHint or any other, with button, that must become unavailable, close button become unclickable too.
Try this:
#include <QApplication>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
QWidget wgt;
wgt.setWindowFlags(Qt::Window | Qt::WindowMaximizeButtonHint | Qt::WindowMinimizeButtonHint | Qt::WindowCloseButtonHint);
wgt.show();
return a.exec();
}
More info:
A window flag is either a type or a hint. A type is used to specify various window-system properties for the widget.

I am trying to hide the MainWindow of my Qt desktop app during startup, and to show a splashscreen. Both only happens after the loading phase, even though I call both splash.show() and window.hide() before the loading phase. I tried to split loading phase and constructor, but result is the same. How can I achieve both before the loading phase ?
Update 1
To display the splash screen, I had to add a call to QApplication::processEvents()
Update 2
The black window was actually not the MainWindow, but a ghost window that popped because scrollArea->setVisible(true) was called in the constructor.
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
QPixmap pixmap(QStringLiteral(":/ressources/icons/icon.png"));
QSplashScreen splash(pixmap);
splash.show();
MainWindow window; // this loads for 5-6 seconds
a.processEvents();
window.showLoginPrompt();
splash.finish(&window);
return a.exec();
}
Based on your code and some example I could make it run like you are trying to do.
You only need to call your promptLogin function instead.
#include <QApplication>
#include <QTimer>
#include <QSplashScreen>
#include "mainwindow.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication app(argc, argv);
QSplashScreen *splash = new QSplashScreen;
splash->setPixmap(QPixmap("D:\\Projects\\SplashScreen\\TestSplashScreen\\splash.png"));
splash->show();
MainWindow mainWin;
QTimer::singleShot(2500, splash, SLOT(close()));
QTimer::singleShot(2500, &mainWin, SLOT(show()));
return app.exec();
}
When setting an hyperlink to a QTextBrowser, I would like that link not to be underlined. In previous versions of Qt (e.g. 2,3,4), there used to be a setLinkUnderline(bool) method which probably did the job. How to do this with Qt5 ?
thanks
A possible solution is to eliminate the underline using css:
#include <QApplication>
#include <QTextBrowser>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
QTextBrowser w;
w.document()->setDefaultStyleSheet("a{ text-decoration: none; }");
w.append("Stack Overflow");
w.show();
return a.exec();
}
I want to know how to set window title in Qt in maximized mode.
window->setWindowtitle("window");
But this does not work in maximized mode.
playback_main *pbw = new playback_main;
pbw->setWindowTitle("PlayBack");
pbw->showMaximized();
This is not working.
Your code works for me on a QMainWindow in, admittedly, qt 4.7. Do you need to force an update with either of:
pbw->update();
qApp->processEvents();
is pbw a QMainWindow or just a widget?
I've tried the following code on linux which works too:
#include <QApplication>
#include <QMainWindow>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
QMainWindow w;
w.setWindowTitle("testing");
w.showMaximized();
return a.exec();
}
I want to create custom Layout alike here: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwidgets-layouts-flowlayout-flowlayout-cpp.html
I want some methood to put checkbox on top of custom button. For now there are
setGeometry(QRect(QPoint(...
methods for either button and checkbox but whether I'm doing it for button or checkobox first still checkbox appears "under" the button and I can't see/click it.
How can I put checkbox on top of button there?
Simply make the checkbox a child of the button and call setGeometry relative to the button. Children are always drawn on top of their parents.
QPushButton button("Hello World!", &w);
button.setGeometry(0,0,100,100);
button.show();
QCheckBox checkBox(&button);
checkBox.setGeometry(button.rect());
checkBox.show();
No need to put the checkbox into a layout.
I have just made this snippet to check the checkbox on the top of the button and it works for me.
#include "mainwindow.h"
#include <QApplication>
#include <QPushButton>
#include <QCheckBox>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
QWidget w;
QPushButton button("Hello World!", &w);
button.setGeometry(0,0,100,100);
button.show();
QCheckBox checkBox(&w);
checkBox.setGeometry(30,30,50,50);
checkBox.show();
w.show();
return a.exec();
}
and here is if you will change the order of "parenting" and want checkbox still be on the top:
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
QWidget w;
QCheckBox checkBox(&w);
checkBox.setGeometry(30,30,50,50);
checkBox.show();
QPushButton button("Hello World!", &w);
button.setGeometry(0,0,100,100);
button.show();
checkBox.setParent(NULL);
checkBox.setParent(&w);
w.show();
return a.exec();
}
How can I prevent a QApplication with a QMainWindow from stealing the keyboard focus when it starts? I'd like it to become active only after clicking on or alt-tabbing to it.
You could use showMinimized() instead of show() for you main window.
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication app(argc, argv);
MainWindow w;
w.showMinimized();
return app.exec();
}
