very small qreal number

[dreamer]

How can i disable the exponential notation? for example, if i get the topleft corner(QPointF) of a QGraphicsrectitem i couldn't have this kind of result:

QPointF(-1.06581e-14,12); but QPointF(-0.000000000"...",12); where the x coordinate is truncated at the ith position.....

You did not tell us, how you want to output that stuff... we have to guess what your problem is.

Anyway, have a look at QTextStream::setRealNumberNotation

I read and generate number with a QTextstream so i use this code to resolve the problem:

QTextStream out("some file");
out.setRealNumberPrecision ( 5 );

QTextStream out("some file");
out.setRealNumberPrecision ( 5 );

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

The default real number precision is '6' that put in some case, the exponential "e" notation........setting it on '5' it doesn't appear.......
Is it just a case or is there a reason??

A clear case of "read the docs".

The default for QTextStream::setRealNumberNotation is QTextStream::SmartNotation.
(Checked the source...)

TextStream::SmartNotation => Scientific or fixed-point notation, depending on which makes most sense (printf()'s %g flag).

So, the answer "why" your code behaves like it does is probably given by "man 2 printf".
