Input Dialog with Check Box?

**PeterThePuter** · 25th October 2010, 04:56

Hey all,

I want to make a dialog that won't show itself in the future if the user selects a check box.

The trouble is how to put a checkbox in a dialog. I looked at QInputDialog, but didn't see anything for checkboxes. I also looked at QMessageBox, but don't know how to sneak a checkbox in.

Is there any way easier or more straightforward than using QDialog? If not, how would I go about it? Sorry, complete newbie here.

You can subclass the input dialog

Or you can use QErrorMessage.

Thanks. This is very helpful. I did not know that you could subclass the input dialog. This forum is great. Thanks for taking the time to answer the question posted here.

Since the dialog is simple, I just decided to go the default route and subclass QDialog.

The only thing I am wondering is how to return an integer from QDialog::exec(). Or should have I subclassed QInputDialog?

Thanks!

The exec() function returns one of two possible values:

Do you want to change this? If so, why?
