There are other ways to assign pixmaps.
You can certainly implement your statusBar widget in Designer and then just assign it to the status bar using code. There is also a high chance you could use QStatusBar as the base for your form in Designer and then just replace the default bar with yours with a single line of code. If not, then it's just a matter of subclassing QStatusBar to introduce proper functionality.Hm.. Could you explain this? Right now I do it with only 4 lines of code, without using designer.
That's not much of a waste, isn't it? I'm sure you can spare extra 100 bytes of memory. It's just a pitty you can't promote the default central widget to the proper widget. But maybe that's a suggestion for Trolltech to do it. Should take them not more than 15 minutes to do that.In Designer, the central widget is a QWidget, which is the parent of my real main widget. This is all in Designer, but it's a bit of a waste to have a QWidget that doesn't really do anything.
I'm sure there are features in Designer which you have not discovered yetTrue, but I don't think we're at that point yet. Right now, many more features could be added without sacrificing simplicity.
Edit: I just checked and confirmed it's possible to assign whatever icons you want from within Designer.
