help with.. numeric mask....

[ocascante]

Hi,

Somebody have any idea about how to mask number in qlinedit, i did check the qt mask but i need something different.
In a qlineedit field, the user input 9349894.00 and i need to show this like 9,349,894.00 after the user move to the next field.
Thanks for anybody who wants to answer this question and help!!

I'm afraid this is not possible to do within designer unless you're happy with setting an input mask. In code, you could catch focus out event and and apply a localized number when appropriate, for example like this:

// MyLineEdit inherits QLineEdit and reimplements QWidget::focusOutEvent()
void MyLineEdit::focusOutEvent(QFocusEvent* event)
{
	QLineEdit::focusOutEvent(event);
 
	bool ok = false;
	double real = text().toDouble(&ok);
	if (ok)
		setText(QLocale(QLocale::English).toString(real, 'f', 2));
}

// MyLineEdit inherits QLineEdit and reimplements QWidget::focusOutEvent()
void MyLineEdit::focusOutEvent(QFocusEvent* event)
{
	QLineEdit::focusOutEvent(event);

	bool ok = false;
	double real = text().toDouble(&ok);
	if (ok)
		setText(QLocale(QLocale::English).toString(real, 'f', 2));
}
