how does qt remember toolbar locations

**ravas** · 11th July 2015, 20:36

When we move toolbars to different areas Qt remembers their locations the next time we start the program.
How does this work?

Likely it saves them to a config.

Does anyone know where Qt saves the toolbar locations?

Hi, QMainWindow::saveState works well together with QSettings to save your GUI setup.

Thanks! I think I found it (forked open source project).

Qt Code:

Switch view

RS_SETTINGS->writeEntry("/DockWindows", QVariant (saveState()));

RS_SETTINGS->writeEntry("/DockWindows", QVariant (saveState()));

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode
