GUI not displaying

[arnaiz]

Hi ToddAtWSU:

Why are you using 'mainWidget'?

As far as I can see, you are using a QWidget inside a QWidget. Your class ScreeningDialog is a QWidget, so yo can then omit:

QWidget *mainWidget = new QWidget( this );

QWidget *mainWidget = new QWidget( this );

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

and use 'this' insted of 'mainWidget'. For example:

.....
   QGridLayout = new QGridLayout( this );
   QLabel *outputDirLabel = new QLabel( tr( "Output Directory:" ), this );
   mpOutputDirLnEd = new QLineEdit( this );
   ....

.....
   QGridLayout = new QGridLayout( this );
   QLabel *outputDirLabel = new QLabel( tr( "Output Directory:" ), this );
   mpOutputDirLnEd = new QLineEdit( this );
   ....

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

I think that may be your problem...

Thanks! That worked. I don't know why my way didn't work because on other dialogs I had created a mainWidget like I did here and it always worked fine. That is why I was so frustrated with this one, it was identical to how I set up other QDialogs but oh well...it worked with using "this" all the time. Thanks for your help!
