Hi Detlev,
We have of the order 60-70 interface plugins available in our 'tool box'
- to be able to order them, group them, filter/search them - and still
maintain a compact layout - I felt that the QToolBox offered too 'flat'
a solution. Let me know your opinion or suggestions for a better approach.
Best regards,
Mads

Hi Mads,
why are you using QTreeView? I would use QToolbox for such a layout.

Hi,
We develop a tool for manipulating atomic structures and have embedded
all the manipulation widgets in a panel bar (widget on the right in
attached screen0.png). The Panel bar has expandable buttons, which
upon expansion display different interfaces for manipulating the
atomic structures.
The whole thing is implemented using a MVC approach using a QTreeView
and an overloaded QItemDelegate class used for handling painting of
the buttons, sizeHints, etc. The widget interfaces however, are
displayed by setting setIndexWidget() on the tree view.
This works fine if the widgets have a fixed size. However if the
atomic structure changes (molecule to crystal), previously hidden GUI
elements may be shown in the widget, which gives rise to a compressed
(bad) layout since the index widget has a fixed size (screen1.png).
The only way I could fix this was to use an idle time, that keeps
triggering the emission of the signal
sizeHintChanged(const QModelIndex & index)
from the delegate. This immediately triggers a smooth update of the
index widget resulting in screen2.png. From a user perspective it
works fine, but to me it appears somewhat hacky. Is there eg. a way to
monitor layout changes in visible index widgets?
Best regards,
Mads
