right justify toolbar

[magland]

How can I get the widgets I add to QToolBar of a QMainWindow to be justified to the right?

You can try using QToolBar::layout()->setAlignment().
But I don't guarantee that it will work. It is just an assumption.

Or you could add a dummy widget (http://doc.trolltech.com/4.3/qtoolbar.html#addWidget) with QSizePolicy::Expanding in front.

Thanks, that did the trick. Much appreciated.

I did not try marcel's suggestion, but that may well have worked too... so thanks to both. :)

I actually wound up using (on a QDialog, not QMainWindow):


m_vBoxLayout = new QVBoxLayout(this);
m_hBoxLayout = new QHBoxLayout();
m_vBoxLayout->addLayout(m_hBoxLayout);
m_vBoxLayout->addStretch(1);
m_hBoxLayout->insertStretch(0, 1);
m_hBoxLayout->addWidget(m_toolBar);


Which places my toolbar at the top/right of the dialog.

But the original question was about aligning items IN the toolbar, not the toolbar itself. Furthermore, with QDialog you lose all the functionality QMainWindow has to offer for toolbars like ability to move toolbars.
