Hello all. Evaluating QT

[dead-already]

Hi,

I am evaluating GUI tools for our application.

We have some specific requirements for our app.
We need few of GUI controls to be rotated, controls like Textbox, Label.

Is it possible to have vertical Textbox/textcontrol/Label?

Like simple horizantal textbox/Label with some text, rotated 90 deg about its axis{with all text rotated to 90 deg}
Editing is not needed. Just GUI control to show rotated information text.

It is for my application in which vertical screen (Vertical LCD screen) needs to be used.

I have to use this along with OGRE.

Rest of GUI is simple, nothing much to do other than rotating GUI controls by 90 degrees.

OR can anyone suggest other GUI tool for my app requirements ?


Thanks

You can create your custom textbox / label where you override paintEvent and draw the contents with painter rotated.
I guess there are some example on qt-apps.org of u search.

QxtLabel can do that with very little effort

Or draw your userinterface via QGraphicsView
