How to get comboBox data instead of index with registerfield

[roseicollis]

Hi,

I'm making a GUI app with a QWizard and QWizardPages structure.

In the first page I have a combobox (cb_info1) with some items:

cb_info->AddItem("A");
cb_info->AddItem("B");
cb_info->AddItem("C");

Then I register it using: registerField("Info_combo", cb_info);

And finally in page2, I want to show which option was selected(if A, B or C) showing the info on a label:


myLabel->setText(field("Info_combo").toString());


If option A was selected, myLabel should show (or at least is want I am trying to): A
But instead of that it shows '0' which I suppose its the index of the item selected of the Combobox.

How can I make that the label shows "A" instead of the index ?

Thank you.

Look at the documentation of registerField:
for a QComboBox the default property is currentIndex.

Look at the properties of QComboBox and at the third argument of registerField.

You can get the current item's text in a QComboBox with currentText();

That is something I've already tried but I just get errors cause I don't know how to put it really... I'm trying with registerField("Info_combo", cb_info, cb_info->currentText()) but there is no way to make it work

Yes I know, but with that you need to pass the index and I want it throw registerField() property :) But can't find the way :(

Look at the documentation more closely.
You will find that its method documentation, like the one for registerField(), has information about the type of each argument.

In the case of registerField's third argument it is "const char*", which, as you a C++ developer will know, is the type of C string literal.
Which, as you know, is a sequence of characters within double quotes.

Looking again at the documentation, you will find that each QObject based class has a section describing its properties.
