Add a Qwidget dynamically

[assismvla]

Why this does not work ?

void MyNotesMain::mousePressEvent(QMouseEvent *event)
{
mousePoint = event->globalPos();
 
QLineEdit *lineEdit = new QLineEdit(this);
lineEdit->setObjectName(QString::fromUtf8("lineEdit"));
lineEdit->setGeometry(QRect(mousePoint.x(), mousePoint.y(), 113, 20));
 
}

void MyNotesMain::mousePressEvent(QMouseEvent *event)
{
mousePoint = event->globalPos();

QLineEdit *lineEdit = new QLineEdit(this);
lineEdit->setObjectName(QString::fromUtf8("lineEdit"));
lineEdit->setGeometry(QRect(mousePoint.x(), mousePoint.y(), 113, 20));

}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Nothing happens.

You forget the

ineEdit->show();

ineEdit->show();

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

Why don't you push QLineEdit *lineEdit to the header initialise it in the constructor. and then just call setGeometry in the mousePressEvent

try to use
mousePoint = event->pos();

instead of

mousePoint = event->globalPos();
