Custom widget directly from .ui

[blelump]

Hi there!

I just would ask you guys, is there any possible way to create a custom plugin to Qt Designer using .ui file?
I already know that if I want use some class in my plugin then I need to add macro QDESIGNER_WIDGET_EXPORT to such class.
So here's a problem. Is it possible to do that in .ui file?

Thanks in advance for any info.

You have two choices.

If you want to make a real plugin, you need a real widget. So you have to provide a subclass of QWidget where you will call setupUi() from your Designer form.

Another approach is to save a "snapshot" of your UI in Designer for future use. To do it, prepare a layout of widgets on a form, grab the whole construction (withouth the form itself) using the mouse and drop it over the Designer widget box. It will then appear at the end of the pane as a custom widget.

Fortunately I figured it out and actually I did it as you said.
