Using Python 2.7.2 and pyQT... This is the only forum I can get to from work. (Thank You NMCI!)
I have a pop-up with 10 Buttons and a QLineEdit.
I did not set any Masks or Validators when I constructed the GUI in QTDesigner.
The "returnPressed" signal works.
I can not get the "textEdited" signal to work at all, period.
I come from a VB-6 background and the reference to (const QString&) in void textEdited (const QString&) has me completely "snowed".
What I want to do is get the length of the entered text as it changes and update a characters-remaining count for the user.
Of course if I can't get a signal emitted when each character is typed, I can't do that...
Help! :)
THANKS!
