Extending MessageBox
I need to add some additional widgets to a standard messagebox, for example a warning that would have an additional checkbox "Don't show this message more" below the row of the standard pushbuttons.
What would be the best strategy?, implementing a new window is relatively easy if you don't enter into the styles of each platform. Adding the widgets directly to a regular qmessagebox would require accessing the internal layout of the qmessagebox.... any suggestion to what approach take?
Thanks!

Why not just subclass?

hi,
as high_flyer said, subclass is the best way to go.

Re: Extending MessageBox
Well I learned two (at least) things, one that I could sublclass the QMessagebox (when I asked I was not aware that I could access its QLayout, but after some tests I think I got it) and second the QErrorMessage that probably I read about it but with so many classes and at an age one can not cope with all :-)
Thank you!
