problem with QListWidgetItem with text and icon

Hello EveryBody,

I am new to the Qt community and says hello to all of you.



I am trying to build an horizontal QListWidget. This has be done without problem

the problem is with the QListWidetItem objects I want to insert.
These QListWidgetItem contain text and icon and they are presented with the icon left an the text wright.
I'd like to have QListWidgetItem with Icon above and text under the icon


the source code is:

SMListView::SMListView(QWidget *parent) : QWidget(parent)
{
m_listView = new QListWidget(this);
m_listView->setFlow(QListView::LeftToRight);

QListWidgetItem *item1 = new QListWidgetItem(QIcon("_2.BMP"), "elem1", m_listView, QListWidgetItem::UserType);
QListWidgetItem *item2 = new QListWidgetItem(QIcon("_2.BMP"), "elem2", m_listView, QListWidgetItem::UserType);
QListWidgetItem *item3 = new QListWidgetItem(QIcon("_2.BMP"), "elem3", m_listView, QListWidgetItem::UserType);
QListWidgetItem *item4 = new QListWidgetItem(QIcon("_2.BMP"), "elem4", m_listView, QListWidgetItem::UserType);
QListWidgetItem *item5 = new QListWidgetItem(QIcon("_2.BMP"), "elem5", m_listView, QListWidgetItem::UserType);

item1->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignCenter);
item2->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignCenter);
item3->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignCenter);
item4->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignCenter);
item5->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignCenter);
}

for example the item1 presentation is icon left and text wright
I'd like to have icon above and the text under the icon


How to do?

I'd thank all developpers that have a solution for me.

Best Regards

One way of doing this is to restrict the width of your QListWidgetItem so that the icon and text can not fit on the same line.
This will force the text to appear below the icon.

You could try using the QListWidgetItem->setSizeHint(), setting the width to slightly larger than that of the icon.

Failing that you can set the QListWidget's maximum width or maybe use a layout.

You can do that easily. You can combine text alignments using OR-operator. So change these alignments:

item1->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignCenter);
item2->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignCenter);
item3->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignCenter);
item4->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignCenter);
item5->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignCenter);

to these:

Quote:

---

item1->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignHCenter | Qt::AlignBottom);
item2->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignHCenter | Qt::AlignBottom);
item3->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignHCenter | Qt::AlignBottom);
item4->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignHCenter | Qt::AlignBottom);
item5->setTextAlignment(Qt::AlignHCenter | Qt::AlignBottom);
