QAction and setText

[babu198649]

Hi
I want to add an QAction to toolbar which contains only text(no Icons).The text will contain spaces but the spaces are stripped down even when i used the QAction::setText(const QString& text) function.
In the following code the space's are stripped downl

QAction *ac=new QAction(this);
ac->setText(" act ");//the spaces are stripped down
addToolBar("toolbar")->addAction(ac);

How to get the spaces in QAction text.

Yes, that's intentional.

The QAction docs says,


The action uses a stripped version of text (e.g. "&Menu Option..." becomes "Menu Option") as descriptive text for tool buttons. You can override this by setting a specific description with setText().

QToolButton* button = new QToolButton(this);
button->setText(" act ");
addToolBar("toolbar")->addWidget(button);
