QSlider: direct jump

[mpi]

When I press the left mouse button on a QSlider, it only does a certain page-step instead of jumping directly to the point that the mouse cursor points at. Is there anyway, I can make it jump directly to the point? I believe this is the standard behavior found in all movie players.

I think you should subclass QProxyStyle to change return value of QStyle::SH_Slider_AbsoluteSetButtons hint in styleHint method. Something like that:

class SliderStyle: public QProxyStyle{
public:
virtual int styleHint ( StyleHint hint, const QStyleOption * option = 0, const QWidget * widget = 0, QStyleHintReturn * returnData = 0 ) const{
if (hint == QStyle::SH_Slider_AbsoluteSetButtons){
return Qt::LeftButton;
}else{
return QProxyStyle::styleHint(hint, option, widget, returnData);
}
}
};

Then create new SliderStyle and set is as your QSlider style.

you can write in mousepressed event to set the value of the QSlider to the selected value,
using checking the widget==QSlider in eventfilter ....
