Didn't you receive an strange message when executing from Qt saying "cannot find SLOT setDisabled(TRUE)" ?Quote:

You can derive the QAbstractButton class, creating a new SLOT disableWhenPress ( bool Ignore ) and connect it like this :
connect(navigate->recordButton,SIGNAL(clicked()),this,SLOT(disableW henPress()));
And it may work...
Another way of achieving this, perhaps a simpler one, could be connecting the pressed signal to an slot that does some stuff ( if you press the button to take some action, you have to program that action, haven't you ? ) and on the first line you disable the button manually :
button->setDisabled(true)
no, and i shouldnt be recieving this message because there is a slot named setDisabled in QWidget .http://doc.trolltech.com/4.4/qwidget.html#setDisabledQuote:

i didnt understand what do you mean by that..:confused:Quote:

I had already tried this way but this also did not worked..Quote:
connect(navigate->recordButton,SIGNAL(clicked()),this,SLOT(disableW henPress()));
This is very true but on the pressing of my button i am calling a different widget while as far button itself is concerned it is in a different widget ,so it is not true for my case....Quote:

THanks
First I've to say sorry. I've wrote my answer while you write you answered yourself and I didn't see the difference you said ( I mean the "this" error )Quote:

I want to say that connecting a signal with an slot both with the same "aspect" ( both take a boolean parameter ) is possible, but the meaning of that value perhaps is not the desired or expected.
And of course I didn't know that you can call an SLOT changing parameter's values as you do. I thought that was an error.
Thanks to you, as we say in Spanish "Nunca te acostarás sin saber una cosa más" ( You'll never go to bed without learning something ) ;)
It is an error. You were right, one can't specify parameter values or names in SLOT() and SIGNAL() macros.Quote:
