HIde WIdget from another Widget

[gab74]

Good mornig,
i've a widget with a button that opens another widget:

when i click to the button i set the property Childwidget->show() and all works well; (the child widget is shown)

when i click the button again (it is a qpushbutton checkable) i want the widget to be hidden so i set Childwidget->hide() but the widget doesent disappear...

Whith the debug i see the code is executed correctly...

if(mybutton->isChecked()) {
 
			ChildWidget->show();
	}
	else {
 
		ChildWidget->close();  /// i try also ChildWidget->Hide()
	}

if(mybutton->isChecked()) {

			ChildWidget->show();
	}
	else {

		ChildWidget->close();  /// i try also ChildWidget->Hide()
	}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

but the widget using hide or close doesent disappear..at all...

What is the problem ?
Thanks !!!

Does the ChildWidget class have custom implementation for closeEvent ( or close() | hide() | event() | event filters installed etc ) ?

What do you mean ?
No i've not implemented any custom method....
Please can you explain what you mean ?
i do not understand...
Thanks Gabriele

What exactly is a ChildWidget ? (I mean what class)
What I meant is:
1) does this class use custom implementations of "close()", "hide()", "closeEvent()" ?
2) do you have any event filters installed on the ChildWidget object (or qApp object) ?
I'm asking because you have used a method ChildWidget->Hide(), which I think is something you have implemented.

Whith the debug i see the code is executed correctly...

So you can see those messages correctly ?

if(mybutton->isChecked()) {
ChildWidget->show();
qDebug() << "show()";
 }
 else {
 ChildWidget->close(); /// i try also ChildWidget->Hide()
 qDebug() << "close()";
 }

if(mybutton->isChecked()) {
ChildWidget->show();
qDebug() << "show()";
 }
 else {
 ChildWidget->close(); /// i try also ChildWidget->Hide()
 qDebug() << "close()";
 }

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

Try: ChildWidget->setVisible (false). Though it's better to post more code since it's not normal that hide() or close() don't work.
