value displayed along the QSlider
Message 1 in thread
Does anyone know an easy way to display the actual value of the slider right
beside the cursor (i mean with the label displaying the value following the
cursor position) like it is the case in Gtk with the Scale widget ( example
here : http://www.pygtk.org/pygtk2tutorial-es/figures/rangewidgets.png )
Do I have to create a label and refresh the position always or is there
something easier?
Thanks for your help.

Create the label and the following works.
connect( slider, SIGNAL( valueChanged( int ) ), label, SLOT( setNum( int
) ) );

thanks for your answer Scott but I also want the label to follow the
position of the slider so as to have the value of the slider always
displayed beside the slide cursor (so I guess i "simply" have to update the
label position according to the slider cursor position?)

Im not sure what you mean.... With the connection I presented,
everytime the value of the slider changes the label gets update...
Or are you talking about when the slider is dragging without a change,
so the user could see what the value will be?

BTW.. if you are... rather then valueChanged... use the sliderMoved

well to state it more clearly, if you look at the picture here:
http://www.pygtk.org/pygtk2tutorial-es/figures/rangewidgets.png
you can see that the value "Scrollbar Page Size" (36) is situated right
above the position of the slider itself
if the slider is dragged somewhere on the left or on the right, the
displayed value will move as well to stay above.
That's very easy to achieve in gtkmm (e.g.
scale->set_value_pos(Gtk::POS_ABOVE))
but i don't know if such a possibility exists in QT

AHHH.. now I get it.. L
Does the label stay visible when your not clicked? I don't think it
would be too hard to implement this...

FYI, I have used tool tips for this purpose with great effect. The
tooltip can be made to move with the mouse pointer very nicely and ir
then disappears when you no longer need it.
