I have problem with layout. I put image for QPushButton background but when I add my button to each layout, it avoid to show full image.
Use size Policy and minimum Height-width. for example you want to expand the button. first select the button and after that choose size Policy to change the size. select Expanding for each property(vertical|horizontal Policy) you want to change. Also you can set the vertical|horizontal stretch. if you want to set limit for it's size you can set minimum and maximum size for your button.
Just look at your object properties, Also look at here. :)

When I maximize my window, I want to restrict a vertical layout (and the entire row below it also) so that it has a specific size (lets say a width of 200). How can I achieve this? Below is what I get now. The buttons are stretched too far. I want them to keep a width of 200.
To stop the buttons stretching, use the following steps in Qt Designer:
click on scrollArea in the Object Inspector
click on Break Layout on the toolbar
click on scrollArea in the Object Inspector
click on Lay Out in a Grid on the toolbar
click on scrollAreaWidgetContents in the Object Inspector
scroll down to the bottom of the Property Editor
change layoutColumnStretch to 0,1
These steps should remove an empty column from the scroll-area grid-layout, and make the second column stretch to take up the available space when the window is resized.
You just need to restrict the maximum width of all widgets (in this case the buttons) within the layouts of this grid column to the expected size, else they'll just keep expanding. You may also have to fiddle the horizontal size policy; I seem to remember that buttons were a bit tricky in this regard (or was that the height?), but can't test it right now.
The layout size contraint you tried only applies to the layout's direct parent widget, if it has one, which isn't the case for the vertical layouts here.
For my Firemonkey multi device project in Delphi 10 Seattle i've created a .style sheet with multiple button styles which contain an image. In order to show the image the right way I want to set a fixed size for the button if the styles are set.
Like if you give a button the stylelookup additemstyle it will have width and height of 48 and you can't resize the button. I want to do the same.
How can I accomplish this? I've already tried to lock the style component and set the size there, but I can still resize the button.
The small size creates an image too large to fit in the box. Is there a way by which the image can be wrapped completely?
I am doing
<div class="catimgback">
<img src="#arguments.item.getImageURL(size='arguments.size',width=arguments.width,height=arguments.height)#" alt="#htmlEditFormat(arguments.item.getValue('title'))#" class="catimg" />
</div>
Where arguments.width = 163px; arguments.height=163px; and arguments.size = small
If i make catimgback's style=height:100% then all goes well. Also, I played with keeping the size to be custom and giving custom width and height but could not get the images to work. all the small size images gets cut off.
I think you may be confused as to how getImageURL() works. The only time you need to pass in the height or width arguments, is if you pass in size='custom' or omit the size attribute altogether.
Also, when you use size='custom', the image gets cropped automatically based on the dimensions of the image that's been uploaded. So, in your case, you want a square image ... but what if the image that's been uploaded is not exactly square, maybe it's a rectangle. So, in that case, Mura starts at the very center of the image, then scales out from there to the outer most boundaries. If the image were a vertical rectangle, you can imagine then that the top and bottom parts of the rectangle won't make the cut. Conversely, if the image were a horizontal rectangle, then the left and right edges of the image won't make it into the cut.
What you really want in this case is a pre-defined image size called catimg with a height and width attribute of 163px. To create this:
Go to Site Config > Edit Site from the Admin area
Click the Images tab
Towards the bottom, click Add Custom Image Size
Enter a Name (for example, catimg)
Enter the Height
Enter the Width
Click Save (You now have a custom image size that can be used for any content items)
Go to the Site Manager, and add/edit a content item
If editing an existing content item that already has an image, click the crop marks to get to the Image Details screen. Otherwise, select an image to upload, and Publish.
From the Image Details screen, scroll down to the custom image size you've created, and you can now Re-Crop your image to select your desired image region.
Now, anytime you call getImageURL(size='catimg'), Mura will use this specific image to display.
Cheers!
I can't quite figure out what the best way of displaying an image is in my particular case, so hopefully someone on here has a few tips.
I want to display an image that gets re-sized automatically to fit inside the space that is available. I currently do this by creating a class derived from QLabel that implements void resizeEvent(QResizeEvent*) where I do a QPixmap::scaled to re-size the image. The problem is that this only works when the widget is enlarged because the widget doesn't get a resizeEvent when I try to make the widget smaller. I guess that because I set the image to the same size as the widget, it isn't allowed to be sized smaller again? I guess I could try to create a smaller image therefor introducing a sort of "border" around the image which would perhaps allow re-size events to occur when making the area smaller. Any thoughts?
resizeEvent is sent whenever size is changed. It doesn't matter whether it is enlarged or not.
But you can set Policy and Max/Min size to constraint widget in shrinking/enlarging. So if you have your widget not getting resizeEvent AND it doesn't shrink either, then look at your size policy and min width/height. If it shrinks but you doesn't have resizeEvent then you have some error in you logic, I believe.
Alternatively you can use paintEvent for image painting and use QWidget::rect() for your widget width/height.
Try changing the size policy of the label to QSizePolicy::Preferred.
Have a look at size policies in general.
Ok, here is my problem:
I have a vertical layout which contains a QPlainTextEdit and a horizontal layout (containing 2 QPushButtons) below the text edit.
The vertical layout is just a part of GUI, and gets resized depending on screen resolution. Btw. it is a mobile app, so I don't have a lot of space on screen.
Push buttons have some text which is dynamically set, I don't know it from the beginning to code it manually.
My problem occurs when the text in push buttons is big, and my whole vertical layout is expanded to fit the buttons.
How can I make the vertical layout unexpandable? note, that this is different from "fixed" because of different screen resoulutions.
I'd just like the clip the buttons if they do not fit, but keep the layout width untouched.
Anyway to do this?
You'll need to set the maximum width for the buttons, not the layout, which is only widening to fit the wider buttons. Check out the docs on QPushButton and look for QWidget inherited functions called setMaximumSize or setMaximumWidth.
You can always GetWidth() on the button when it is an appropriate size, then setMaximumWidth using that value since you wouldn't ordinarily know this. Pick an appropriate default text size/val and use that to create your "dynamic" default since this is going on screens of varying size.
