Adding List of Images with filenames and a combobox for each

[sRB]

Hi All,

I need to display a list of images . This list contains images along with the image name specified below it along with a combobox.
What is the best solution? Do i use a grid layout to place the items one below the other or use a QListWidget instead.
I hope someone could help me with this.
Thanks in advance!

How many images? Is the number variable or fixed?

For a small number a vertical layout containing a custom widget per image, perhaps in a scroll area, might be appropriate.
For a large or variable list of images a list widget with a customised delegate might be better suited.

I have a 100 images and the number is fixed.
How do i go about creating a customised delegate?

Currently i have created a Listwidgetand added the items to the list using a for loop. The list widget is then added to vBoxLayout. But the list appears as a small box on the top left corner of the window. How do i make the contents fit to screen.

That either means that the widget is not in a layout or that they layout is not set on the parent widget (or not added to a parent layout).

I'm adding the list widget to the group box and then setting a scrollwidget for it and adding that to the layout. But still the problem persists.

Here's my code:

QVBoxLayout *vLayout = new QVBoxLayout(parent);
   QGroupBox   *groupBox = new QGroupBox();
   QListWidget *list = new QListWidget();
 
 
     for()
     {
                 list->setViewMode(QListView::ListMode);
                 list->setIconSize(QSize(500,500));
                 list->setResizeMode(QListView::Adjust);
                 list->addItem(new QListWidgetItem(QIcon(filename),filename));
     }
 
 
   vLayout->addWidget(list);
 
   groupBox->setLayout(vLayout);
   scrollArea = new QScrollArea(this);
 
   QVBoxLayout *layout = new QVBoxLayout(parent);
   layout->addWidget(scrollArea);   
   scrollArea->setWidget(groupBox);
   this->setLayout(layout);
 
   this->setSizePolicy(QSizePolicy::Expanding, QSizePolicy::Fixed);
   this->resize(1000,600);

QVBoxLayout *vLayout = new QVBoxLayout(parent);
   QGroupBox   *groupBox = new QGroupBox();
   QListWidget *list = new QListWidget();


     for()
     {
                 list->setViewMode(QListView::ListMode);
                 list->setIconSize(QSize(500,500));
                 list->setResizeMode(QListView::Adjust);
                 list->addItem(new QListWidgetItem(QIcon(filename),filename));
     }


   vLayout->addWidget(list);

   groupBox->setLayout(vLayout);
   scrollArea = new QScrollArea(this);

   QVBoxLayout *layout = new QVBoxLayout(parent);
   layout->addWidget(scrollArea);   
   scrollArea->setWidget(groupBox);
   this->setLayout(layout);

   this->setSizePolicy(QSizePolicy::Expanding, QSizePolicy::Fixed);
   this->resize(1000,600);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

Give the group box a size explicitly. The scroll area will not resize the widget, just allow you to pan about if it becomes larger than the viewport.
