How to make custom property editor
Message 1 in thread
Hi Folks,
I am wondering whether it is possible to customize the property
editor(s) for custom widget in Qt4 designer?
I have my custom widget with string property. What I am trying to
achieve is similar to the default editor for enum based (Q_ENUMS)
properties but with dynamic list of possible string values in the
drop-down list. In my case I would like to generate the list of possible
values dynamically every time the user clicks on the corresponding
drop-down list in the property editor. Please note that it is not like
QStringList-based property. I just want one string as a value, but would
like to provide the user with the set of possible values.
Another example which is very close to what I want is the editor for
windowIcon property. It content is populated dynamically based on what
was selected in Find Icon dialog (popped up by pushing the button with
folder).
The related question is - are there any examples available for creating
custom dialogs for property editing (something like for example Edit
Palette dialog for palette property)?
I did not find any mention about such possibilities and that is why
would really appreciate any hints.
Thank you,
Andrey.
