    Default How to make three dots?

    I want to make a tool button with "..." as text but it seems that this is a command or something else. when i take ".." as label it is shown, however as soon as there are three dots, they disappear somehow.

    Does anybody know, how to get around this? (except drawing a picture with ... and setting it as the tool button icon?)

    The default text of a QToolButton in Qt Designer is "..." and it works fine for me. Perhaps the problem is elsewhere?

    ah, just solved it.

    I had to set the icon text to ..., not the text
