Custom Property On Custom Widget

[Ashutosh2k1]

Hi All,
I need a very urget clarification .Can we show the Custom Property (Like of Struct where each type of struct may be used Defined here the Struct is user defined ) in the Qt Designer by any means ?.
As i Know there are two ways Either Q_PROPERTY Which works for the Qt defined type and the other is QDesignerPropertySheetExtension
Currently i am using the QDesinerPropertySheetExtension but the Property class is not coming
So plz help me

How did you use QDesinerPropertySheetExtension?

[Ashutosh2k1]

I have used the qDesignerPropertySheet Extension as it was mentioned in the doc .But i dont know how to display the custom Property because anyway i have not found any method for showing the custom Property only get set or Property group methods are available

I hope you trying to create a custom widget plugin for Qt designer, is it so?

[Ashutosh2k1]

ya and i want to give the custom(compound ) property to my custom widget . I have read somewhere that this could be possible only from QdesignerPropertySheet extension but i am not able to do this .

[Santosh Reddy]

The QDesignerPropertySheetExtension class allows you to manipulate a widget's properties which is displayed in Qt Designer's property editor. You should be proving the properties information in your QDesignerCustomWidgetInterface

Hi
Thanks For reply. I can manipulate widget property through QDesignerPropertySheetExtension But where i have to provide my property in QDesignerCustomWidgetInterface . Can u plz elaborate what u r saying

[Santosh Reddy]

Did you read this example ?

[Ashutosh2k1]

Hi
I have just read the example .I think The only place where i can provide the compound Property is domxml function .But my Compound Property is not coming on the widget property editor so what i am missing .

I am giving u some design what i am doing
I have created a CustomProp Class Its Plugin CustomPropPlugin
Exteansion Class Subclassed from QDesignerPropertySheetExtension and the factory class derived from QExtensionFactory Ok
Now In the initialize function of plugin i am getting the extension class of Qt designer and throught that i register the manager class
I have also implemented just the method of QDesginerPropertyExtension in my Extension Class
So am i missing something or doing something wrong

How does your domXml() look?

[Ashutosh2k1]

return "<widget class=\"CustomWidgetPropertyShow\" name=\"customWidgetPropertyShow\">\n"
" <property name=\"geometry\">\n"
" <rect>\n"
" <x>0</x>\n"
" <y>0</y>\n"
" <width>100</width>\n"
" <height>100</height>\n"
" </rect>\n"
" </property>\n"
"</widget>\n";

Also if add something it will come as dynamic property .I have just checked with adding something but it gives the flavour of dynamic Property which i don't want .I wnat the custom struct to appear as static Property
