A QDateTime that displays no Date?


Message 1 in thread

If a QDateTime widget isn't initialized it displays "00/00/0000".  Of what value is date widget
that displays "00/00/0000"?

This widget seems like it is desperately in need of a setNullText() function.  It could then be
used to display a value (such as "None") for a date that has not yet been entered or which I don't
want set to the current date.

Has anyone worked with QDateTime to do this?

I derived my date/time spinbox selection widget from QSpinbox actually, 
but it does allow quite a bit of flexibility in what it displays.  In 
this case you could just call setFormat() to display whatever text you 
like.  You can download the source from:
