veritical menu/layout separator?!?!

**nupul** · 21st April 2006, 16:48

I am using a custom menu which is like 600x600 in size. Now the point is I would like to have the menu contents displayed in 3 vertical columns....how can i do this?

OR

If i display the contents in a normal frameless window, using 3 vertical layouts in a horizontal layout, can I i show a separator between the columns? how?

Thanks

Maybe you need a QSplitter or set an appropiate value for the margins of the horitzontal layout...

Didn't you learn anything from Microsoft's atrocious start menu

Actually, QMenu will not be able to do this for you. You will have to create your own custom popup widget which contains a horizontal layout with five columns. Use frame widgets, with the style set to VLine|Sunken to get the separators in columns 1 and 3.
