Hi all,
I've written my own QDialog that monitors the startup procedure on one of our systems. What I am after is the ability to selectively expand or hide information about each of the steps that is happening.
I'm envisioning something similar to the dialog present when Ubuntu does its software updates - it gives a short text description of what its doing (e.g. "Installing..."), and then there is a triangle icon to its right that, when clicked, causes the dialog to expand to show the current log output (or stdout, or whatever), with the triangle going from side-pointing to down-pointing.
I found someone inquiring about something similar many years ago here:
http://lists.trolltech.com/qt-intere...ad00130-0.html
The reason I hesitate to implement what was shown in that link is it seems like Qt should have this functionality already - QTreeView has the functionality and the icon, obviously there are a number of widgets for displaying text, but they don't seem to play nicely together.
Is there something more simple that I'm missing, or do I just have to implement it myself?
Thanks in advance,
Barry
