QPushButton - setText with "\n" not working

[gboelter]

Sorry, I'm quiet new in Qt and it's possible that somebody will laugh about this question, but I can't found a solution so I would like to ask you guys for al little bit help.

Actually I'm using Qt 4.3 together with Linux and MySQL 5.

From a MySql database I got "Hello\n World" using

QString test1(query.value(1).toString())

QString test1(query.value(1).toString())

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

In my database "Hello\n World" is stored as varschar(40).

Then for testing I have tried this:

QString test1(query.value(1).toString());
QString test2 = "Hello\n World";
 
qDebug() << query.value(1);          // QVariant(QString, "Hello\World")
qDebug() << test1;                   // gives me "Hello\n World"
qDebug() << test2;                   // gives me "Hello
                                                  World"

QString test1(query.value(1).toString());
QString test2 = "Hello\n World";

qDebug() << query.value(1);          // QVariant(QString, "Hello\World")
qDebug() << test1;                   // gives me "Hello\n World"
qDebug() << test2;                   // gives me "Hello
                                                  World"

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

How it comes, that in test1 the newline character is ignored?

Thanks in advance
