[Qt-interest] QTabWidget rotates tab icons in east or west direction

[David Boosalis]

Maybe you  can just fool the TabWidget by doing your own rotation
first.  Here is a piece of demo code that does that, you'll have to do
the math to figure out what angle to apply to get it right. Hope it
helps

#include <QApplication>
#include <QLabel>
#include <QPixmap>
#include <QTransform>

class MyLabel : public QLabel
{
public:
  MyLabel( QWidget * p = 0, Qt::WindowFlags f = 0 ): QLabel(p,f)
  {
    QPixmap pm("test.png");
    QTransform trans;
    pm = pm.transformed(trans.rotate(-90));
    setPixmap(pm);
  }
};

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  QApplication app(argc,argv);
  MyLabel *myLabel = new MyLabel();
  myLabel->show();
  return app.exec();
}
