setText in QToolButton ( qt4 )

[joseph]

Hi,

I have a QToolButton which is having a "QPixmap" loading from resourcefile ( MyResourceFile.qrc ) , with Qt3Support.

After setting setting pixmap , am setting text in QToolButton uisng setText(). But in GUI it is not showing the TEXT , instead displays only the QOixmap.

see the code..

MyMainWindow::MyMainWindow()
{
--------
---------
 
QToolButton *btn= new QToolButton( QIcon(":Images/imageOne.png"), tr("Quit"),
			tr("Quit"), this, SLOT( close() ),  myToolBar, "Quit");  //setting pixmap in QToolButton
 
	btn->setText("My Text......");    //setting text in QToolButton
 
 
---------
---------
-------
}

MyMainWindow::MyMainWindow()
{
--------
---------

QToolButton *btn= new QToolButton( QIcon(":Images/imageOne.png"), tr("Quit"),
			tr("Quit"), this, SLOT( close() ),  myToolBar, "Quit");  //setting pixmap in QToolButton

	btn->setText("My Text......");    //setting text in QToolButton


---------
---------
-------
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Why this is not showing the text in QToolButton...??????
please help me

Try this :

btn->setToolButtonStyle( Qt::ToolButtonTextUnderIcon );

btn->setToolButtonStyle( Qt::ToolButtonTextUnderIcon );

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

By default, a QToolButton is in IconMode only, and won't display text

It is not working...

Well then, post some more code, so I can reproduce the problem.

I have given the full code in the first thread.
let me explain...
In my mainwindow-constructor i have created a QToolButton. that's it.

You can try the same in your code.
But the only difference is i am porting the code from Qt3.3.4 to Qt 4.2.2 using the QT3Support.

please help me.
thank you.

Ok, I'll try this in a small example once I'm at work (in 20 minutes) ;-)

Could you provide a minimal and compilable example reproducing the problem? QToolButton::setToolButtonStyle() works just fine for me when using plain QToolButtons and QToolBar::setToolButtonStyle() does the trick when adding QActions to a QToolBar.

EDIT :
Ooops sorry, forget what I wrote

I'm almost finished with my sample.

By the way, if you don't set any pixmap in the button, does the string become visible ?

I've made a little sample code, showing string only, and it works here...here it goes in attachment.

Thanks for your attempt.
I can use either ICON or TEXT. But i need a button which can accomedate ICON & TEXT.

N:B : Here am giving the full code. i am using Q3ToolBar and adding QToolButton to it. see this

MyMainWindow::MyMainWindow()
   {
 
      --------
       ---------
        Q3ToolBar  *myToolBar  = new Q3ToolBar( this );
 
      QToolButton *btn= new QToolButton( QIcon(":Images/imageOne.png"), tr("Quit"),
                   tr("Quit"), this, SLOT( close() ),  myToolBar, "Quit");  //setting pixmap in QToolButton
 
 
 
          btn->setText("My Text......");    //setting text in QToolButton
 
 
 
 
 
      ---------
 
      ---------
 
      -------
 
  }

MyMainWindow::MyMainWindow()
   {
  
      --------
       ---------
        Q3ToolBar  *myToolBar  = new Q3ToolBar( this );
  
      QToolButton *btn= new QToolButton( QIcon(":Images/imageOne.png"), tr("Quit"),
                   tr("Quit"), this, SLOT( close() ),  myToolBar, "Quit");  //setting pixmap in QToolButton
  
       
  
          btn->setText("My Text......");    //setting text in QToolButton
  
       
  
       
  
      ---------
  
      ---------
  
      -------
  
  }

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Now can you identify....??
Can i set any property so that i can accomedate both the icon , text. ...????



thank u

Why can't you just use QToolBar, the native Qt4 class ?
