[Qt-interest] Fwd: Custom widget promotion

[ami guru]

Hello Benjamin,

that is what i am trying to follow from an example where they have used
widget promotion to create property browser.

In he main example they have promoted a tree view widget to their customized
widget and inserted that widget inside a dock widget.

And that insertion gets a little confusing to me.

I drag the customized widget inside the dock , and in the "Object Inspector"
it shows that the customized widget is the child of the
dockWidgetContents but not the child of dockWidget itself .

In  the example the customized widget is direct child of the dock widget and
there is no dockWidgetContents in between.

Any feedback to get around with that issue?



Regards
Sajjad

I don't see any problem to promote a widget contained inside a dock widget.

Note that adding a custom widget directly into Qt Designer is not very
complex: http://doc.trolltech.com/4.4/designer-creating-custom-widgets.html
When you are not satisfied with promote, taking a few minutes to write a
plugin makes you happy again ;).

Benjamin
