QDialogButtonBox
Message 1 in thread
Hello,
I'm wanting to put a 'Help' and 'Ok' button on a form, which needs to
work on Mac and Windows, so a QDialogButtonBox seems like a good idea to
sort out layout issues automatically. The 'Ok' button has been defined
in Designer - so I presume using QDialogButtonBox::Ok.
The form needs some data validation performed once the user has clicked
on the 'Ok' button, and we may not want the form to close, depending on
the results of that validation. Is there any way to stop this from
happening?
Thanks,
Peter Lee

Hi,
Of course you can: simply make sure that you don't connect your
QDialgoButtonBox's accepted signal to the QDialog's accept slot.
Instead, you hook the accepted() signal to your own slot, do your
validation, and call accept() from there if the validation succeeds.
