Re: Maybe I'm just tired or can't read?

Is this also true of signals?

Maybe I'm just tired or can't read?

I thought a slot had to be wrapped in CS_SLOT_1() CS_SLOT_2() in the header file in order for it to be used via connect() as a slot. Spent most of today trying to track down a focus problem when closing the advanced find window. The text edit tab doesn't actually get keyboard focus. The Close pushbu...

malloc crash

Maybe this should have never worked? It was working flawlessly until I pulled down the update for CopperSpice mentioned in this thread. "Failed to create xcb gl-integration" I happened to use the colors dialog again today and then spent some time chasing my tail. void Dialog_Colors::copyCl...

Position a QDialog at the bottom of its parent

I appear to be suffering from severe head-up-butt syndrome right now. I just wanted to put the input dialog for EDT responses at the bottom of the tabbed widget. I swear I've done this in Qt before. There seems to be something forcing the dialog back to center no matter what I do. https://www.logika...

Re: Where are the compiler options hidden?

Thanks for the notice. I got no messages about the missing w. I understand your philosophy, but coming from the medical device world, one is not allowed to use environment variables for compiler options. Too high a risk and cannot be verified by external auditors. I have a fork here: https://github....

Re: QKeySequence QKeyEvent enhancement request

Sorry, I just noticed I posted this in the wrong section. I'm going to sleep on it a bit tonight, but it really does look like you simply can't get there from here in any reliable manner. If I try building the string from the modifiers I can generate Ctrl+, Alt+, Delete But the user many have entere...

QKeySequence QKeyEvent enhancement request

In working on some enhancements to Diamond, notably adding EDT support, I walked right into a significant design flaw in Qt. QKeyEvent doesn't have a method that returns a QKeySequence. You can only get an int for the key and the modifiers all monkey piled into another binary field. You can't constr...

One for the to-do list compare _1 and _2

Had a cut & paste boo boo that pointed this out :o CS_SIGNAL_1( Public, void edtCopy() ) CS_SIGNAL_2( edtCut ) That isn't caught at compile time, it hangs at run time and even the error message was a bit odd, or my brain just wasn't using all cylinders. DiamondTextEdit::edtCut Unable to register...

rehighlight request

All, While working on changes to Diamond I have encountered another time honored Qt tradition of abusing the main event loop. When you have a source file of several thousand lines the processing time for the regular expressions locks the UI for several seconds. If you have 5 or 6 of these files open...
