Hi everybody,
Could someone help me with a simple question. What is the difference between the QPushButton and QToolButton? (I'm sorry for simple question, but I'm a new in Qt and I can not find the difference between these two class).
Thanks in advance.
The difference is explained in the QToolButton documentation.
Did you read it?
the simple answer is QPushButton can be pushed by the user, QToolButton also can be pushed by the user and should be placed in the tool bar.
the class name in the Qt is very simple , interesting and correctly.
you can get the difference from the difference class name. is this interesting?
sorry for reviving this thread, but it comes up first in google results when searching for the difference.
ok, so when would you use a push button instead of a tool button? Can't you use the tool button in every place you would use a push button, but not the other way around?
Thanks
Is it really easier to post a question then first reading the previous posts and the documentation?

The QToolButton class provides a quick-access button to commands or options, usually used inside a QToolBar.
A tool button is a special button that provides quick-access to specific commands or options. As opposed to a normal command button, a tool button usually doesn't show a text label, but shows an icon instead.
