Is there a way to have all radion buttons be unchecked - qt

I have a QGroupBox with a couple of QRadioButtons inside of it and in certain cases I want all radio buttons to be unchecked. Seems that this is not possible when a selection has been made. Do you know of a way I could do this or should I add a hidden radiobutton and check that onen to get the desired result.

You can achieve this effect by temporarily turning off auto exclusivity for all your radio buttons, unchecking them, and then turning them back on:
QRadioButton* rbutton1 = new QRadioButton("Option 1", parent);
// ... other code ...
rbutton1->setAutoExclusive(false);
rbutton1->setChecked(false);
rbutton1->setAutoExclusive(true);
You might want to look at using QButtonGroup to keep things tidier, it'll let you turn exclusivity on and off for an entire group of buttons instead of iterating through them yourself:
// where rbuttons are QRadioButtons with appropriate parent widgets
// (QButtonGroup doesn't draw or layout anything, it's just a container class)
QButtonGroup* group = new QButtonGroup(parent);
group->addButton(rbutton1);
group->addButton(rbutton2);
group->addButton(rbutton3);
// ... other code ...
QAbstractButton* checked = group->checkedButton();
if (checked)
{
group->setExclusive(false);
checked->setChecked(false);
group->setExclusive(true);
}
However, as the other answers have stated, you might want to consider using checkboxes instead, since radio buttons aren't really meant for this sort of thing.

If you're using QGroupBox to group buttons, you can't use the setExclusive(false) function to uncheck the checked RadioButton. You can read about it in QRadioButton section of QT docs. So if you want to reset your buttons, you can try something like this:
QButtonGroup *buttonGroup = new QButtonGroup;
QRadioButton *radioButton1 = new QRadioButton("button1");
QRadioButton *radioButton2 = new QRadioButton("button2");
QRadioButton *radioButton3 = new QRadioButton("button3");
buttonGroup->addButton(radioButton1);
buttonGroup->addButton(radioButton2);
buttonGroup->addButton(radioButton3);
if(buttonGroup->checkedButton() != 0)
{
// Disable the exclusive property of the Button Group
buttonGroup->setExclusive(false);
// Get the checked button and uncheck it
buttonGroup->checkedButton()->setChecked(false);
// Enable the exclusive property of the Button Group
buttonGroup->setExclusive(true);
}
You can disable the exclusive property of the ButtonGroup to reset all the buttons associated with the ButtonGroup, then you can enable the Exclusive property so that multiple button checks won't be possible.

Disable (grey-out) some rows in a QTreeView

I have a (very simple yet) QTreeView showing some rows:
m_cameraModel = new QStandardItemModel(this);
QSortFilterProxyModel* cameraProxyModel = new QSortFilterProxyModel(this);
cameraProxyModel->setSourceModel(m_cameraModel);
ui.CameraTreeView->setModel(cameraProxyModel);
m_cameraModel->appendRow(new QStandardItem("Panavision"));
m_cameraModel->appendRow(new QStandardItem("Panaflex"));
Here I want to disable the first row "Panavision" so that it is still visible but can't be selected any more and is somehow greyed-out so that the user can see this entry is not active.
May be this is some kind of beginner-question, but how can this be done?
Thanks!
I would try to do that in the following way:
// Get item that corresponds to the first row
QStandardItem *item = m_cameraModel->item(0, 0);
// Disable the item.
item->setFlags(Qt::NoItemFlags);
You'd want to use the QItemDelegate class, which allows you to disable the row you want to amongst other things. There's a good question here on StackOverflow that shows how to do a very basic example: How to set a delegate for a single cell in Qt item view?

QTableWidget with checkbox

I need to use QTableWidget with checkboxes instead of text in items. Checkbox must be in the center of item.
Examples which I tried work while checkbox is checked. If I uncheck checkbox it disapeares.
You can set the checkbox to be centered with this code:
QWidget *pWidget = new QWidget();
QCheckBox *pCheckBox = new QCheckBox();
QHBoxLayout *pLayout = new QHBoxLayout(pWidget);
pLayout->addWidget(pCheckBox);
pLayout->setAlignment(Qt::AlignCenter);
pLayout->setContentsMargins(0,0,0,0);
pWidget->setLayout(pLayout);
pMyTableWidget->setCellWidget(0,0,pWidget);
(I don't know if I understood you well here) And if you want to make your checkbox disappear when you uncheck it, you need to connect clicked signal of checkbox to a slot, that will make your checkbox invisible. Use connect method like this:
connect(checkbox,SIGNAL(clicked()),this,SLOT(checkboxClicked()));
You need to create slot checkboxClicked where you will be checking if the checkbox is checked or not. If not then you have to set it invisible. Example:
QCheckBox* Chb = qobject_cast<QCheckBox *>(QObject::sender());
if(!Chb->checked())
Chb->setVisible(false);

Disabling a row in a DOJO / Gridx grid

I have a grid I created in Gridx which lists a bunch of users. Upon clicking a ROW in the grid (any part of that row), a dialog pops up and shows additional information about that user and actions that can be done for that user (disable user, ignore user, etc.) - when one of these options is selected from the pop up, I want to DISABLE that row. The logic for getting the row, etc. I can take care of, but I can't figure out how to make a grid row actually "appear" disabled and how to make that row no longer clickable.
Is there a simple way to do this? If you aren't familiar with gridx, solutions that apply to EnhancedGrids or other Dojo grids are also appreciated.
Alright now that I have a little more information here is a solution:
Keep a list of all the rows you have disabled so far either inside the Grid widget or in its parent code. Then on the onRowClick listener I would write code like this:
on(grid, "onRowClick", function(e) {
if(disabledRows[rowIndex]) {
return;
}
// Do whatever pop up stuff you want and after
// a user selects the value, you can "disable"
// your row afterwards by adding it to the disabled
// list so that it can no longer be clicked on.
var rowIndex = e.rowIndex;
disabledRows[rowIndex] = true;
// This is just some random class I made up but
// you can use css to stylize the row however you want
var rowNode = e.rowNode;
domClass.add(rowNode, "disabled");
});
Note that domClass is what I named "dojo/dom-class". Hope this helps!
This is perhaps not exactly what you are seaching for:
If you want to hide one or more rows by your own filterfunction you could just add to these rows in the DOM your own class for nodisplay. Here I show you a function for display only those rows which have in a choiceable field/column a value inside your filterlist.
function hideRowFilter(gridId, fieldName, filterList)
{
var store = gridId.store;
var rowId;
store.query(function(object){
rowId = gridId.row(object.id,true).node();
if (filterList.indexOf(object[fieldName]) == -1)
domClass.add(rowId, "noDisplay"); // anzeigen
else
domClass.remove(rowId, "noDisplay"); // verstecken
});
}
CSS:
.noDisplay { display: none; }
So I can for example display only the entries with a myState of 3 or 4 with this call:
hideRowFilter(gridId, 'myState', [3, 4]);
Note that domClass is what I named "dojo/dom-class"

In Flex, how do I create a CheckBox that can't be un-checked?

In Flex, how do I create a CheckBox that can't be un-checked? I run a function when the checkbox is clicked. If that function encounters an error, I want the state of the checkbox to remain the same. How do I do that?
You can use the enabled attribute to prevent the checkbox from being accessed once it's in the state you mentioned.
onFunctionError():void {
yourCheckbox.enabled = false;
}

How can I get value from radio-button inserted into innerHtml

I have sort of a table with a radio-button column. I managed to make radio-button column work dynamically inserting into a cell (div if matter). But, on postback innerHtml hasn't been updated with "checked" attribute.
Could you give me an idea how can I find out (on the server) if radio-button has been checked?
More info: This is on user control inside update panel.
This would be good post on my topic, still doesn't help
Any reason you cannot use a standard asp:RadioButton and use javascript to ensure it is mutually exclusive. I have done this before by adding a custom attribute to the radiobutton and then using a js function to uncheck all items with that attribute and then check the selected one. This works around the IE issue which prevents the groupname attribute from working on radioboxes that are in different containers.
radioButton.InputAttributes.Add("ClientGroupName", "grpRadioList");
radioButton.InputAttributes.Add("onclick",
string.Format(
"javascript:radiobuttonToggle('{0}','ClientGroupName','grpRadioList');"
,radioButton.ClientID));
and use the following JS to uncheck all radios and then check the one you want.
Note i used InputAttributes instead of Attributes as the radiobutton is wrapped inside a span tag so InputAttributes is for items added to the actual input control rather than the span.
function radiobuttonToggle(selectedRB, attribName, attribValue)
{
var objRadio = document.getElementById(selectedRB);
for(i = 0; i < document.forms[0].elements.length; i++)
{
elm = document.forms[0].elements[i];
if (elm.type == 'radio')
{
if(elm.getAttribute(attribName) == attribValue)
elm.checked = false;
}
}
objRadio.checked = true;
}
You can then expose radioButton.Checked as a property in your CS file and reuse this as a control.
Check Form.Request("radio-name") != null
You only get a non-null value when it's been checked.
Make sure your page elements are being rebuilt correctly on postback. Any binding process that inserted the radio buttons the first time around will have to be re-run before you can access them the second time.
Here is a working example, first I add radios to my webform by the method you linked :
function addRadio()
{
try{
rdo = document.createElement('<input type="radio" name="fldID" />');
}catch(err){
rdo = document.createElement('input');
}
rdo.setAttribute('type','radio');
rdo.setAttribute('name','fldID');
document.getElementById('container').appendChild(rdo);
}
Then at code behind I used only the code below to get the radio's value :
string value = Request["fldID"];
So, be sure you're trying to get the name of the radio buttons at server side. You should use name attribute at server side, not id.
