    Unhappy Subclassing a QPushButton

    I subclassed a QPushButton and in the constructor I changed the text of QPushButton however the text does not change in the actual button any suggestions on why the text is not changing ?
    Qt Code:
    1. #ifndef QCUSTOMPUSHBUTTON
    2. #define QCUSTOMPUSHBUTTON
    3.  
    4.  
    5. #include "QObject"
    6. #include "QPushButton"
    7.  
    8. class QCustomPushBtton : public QPushButton
    9. {
    10. Q_OBJECT
    11.  
    12. public:
    13. QCustomPushBtton(QWidget *parent=0):QPushButton(parent)
    14. {
    15. this->setText("testing123");
    16. }
    17.  
    18. signals:
    19. void DoubleClick();
    20.  
    21. protected:
    22. virtual void mouseDoubleClickEvent(QMouseEvent *) override
    23. {
    24. emit DoubleClick();
    25. }
    26. };
    27.  
    28.  
    29. #endif // QCUSTOMPUSHBUTTON
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

    Default Re: Subclassing a QPushButton

    Do you set text anywhere else?
    Have you confirmed that you are creating instances of your button?

    While that should not make any difference, you can also pass the text to the base class's constructor:
    Qt Code:
    1. QCustomPushBtton(QWidget *parent=0):QPushButton("testing123", parent)
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    Cheers,
