Qt Drag and Drop Snap

[seano182]

Hey guys,

Was just curious if anyone has tried a drag and drop GUI in which shapes dragged into a particular area snap to the base of one another.

Have looked around and can only find simple drag and drop graphics. I'm after getting several blocks attached to one another and obtaining some strings attatched to each object in a ordered grouping fashion.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Sean

Yes.

"Qt in Education" section of Qt/Nokia website contains a lecture on Graphics View with a lab (jigsaw puzzle) that handles such a thing. It doesn't use drag&drop per se but rather the item moving mechanism built into graphics view. But the idea is the same regardless of what mechanism you use.

Thanks for that, I'll have a look into it.
