Widget integrated going out of its own zone - qml

I got a main window (Item) with a 640*480 size.
I integrated a custom widget defined in another qml file, its size is 100*100. This item contains a Pathview that only shows 3 items from a list containing a lot of items.
The thing is that when I add my CustomPathView to my main window at coords (0, 0), the PathView goes to the bottom of my main window, displaying 7/8 items... (?!?)
My CustomPathView.qml file starts with :
Item {
width: 100
height: 100
That's why I really don't understand why it is displaying 8 items...
Did I do something wrong ? Do I have to precise to my CustomPathView that he can't go out of its zone (how ?) ?
Thanks in advance for any help about it !

Just set the clip property to true.

How do I resize an array of squished PyQt5 widgets? [duplicate]

I have a QScrollArea Widget, which starts empty;
It has a vertical layout, with a QGridLayout, and a vertical spacer to keep it at the top, and prevent it from stretching over the whole scroll area;
Elsewhere in the program, there is a QTextEdit, which when changed, has its contents scanned for "species" elements, and then they are added to the QGridLayout. Any species elements which have been removed are removed too. This bit works;
I have turned the vertical scrollbar on all the time, so that when it appears it does not sit on top of the other stuff in there. Note that the scroll bar is larger than the scroll box already though, despite not needing to be.
This is the problem. The scroll area seems to be preset, and i cannot change it. If i add more rows to the QGridLayout, the scroll area doesn't increase in size.
Instead, it stays the same size, and squeezes the QGridLayout, making it look ugly (at first);
And then after adding even more it becomes unusable;
Note that again, the scroll bar is still the same size as in previous images. The first two images are from Qt Designer, the subsequent 3 are from the program running.
If I resize the window so that the QScrollArea grows, then I see this:
Indicating that there's some layout inside the scroll area that is not resizing properly.
My question is; what do I need to do to make the scrollable area of the widget resize dynamically as I add and remove from the QGridLayout?
If you're coming here from Google and not having luck with the accepted answer, that's because you're missing the other secret invocation: QScrollArea::setWidget. You must create and explicitly identify a single widget which is to be scrolled. It's not enough to just add the item as a child! Adding multiple items directly to the ScrollArea will also not work.
This script demonstrates a simple working example of QScrollArea:
from PySide.QtGui import *
app = QApplication([])
scroll = QScrollArea()
scroll.setWidgetResizable(True) # CRITICAL
inner = QFrame(scroll)
inner.setLayout(QVBoxLayout())
scroll.setWidget(inner) # CRITICAL
for i in range(40):
b = QPushButton(inner)
b.setText(str(i))
inner.layout().addWidget(b)
scroll.show()
app.exec_()
The documentation provide an answer :
widgetResizable : bool
This property holds whether the scroll area should resize the view widget.
If this property is set to false (the default), the scroll area honors the size of its widget.
Set it to true.
Why don't you use a QListView for your rows, it will manage all the issues for you? Just make sure that after you add it you click on the Class (top right window of designer) and assign a layout or it wont expand properly.
I use a QLIstWidget inside a QScrollArea to make a scrollable image list
Try this for adding other objects to the list, this is how I add an image to the list.
QImage& qim = myclass.getQTImage();
QImage iconImage = copyImageToSquareRegion(qim, ui->display_image->palette().color(QWidget::backgroundRole()));
QListWidgetItem* pItem = new QListWidgetItem(QIcon(QPixmap::fromImage(iconImage)), NULL);
pItem->setData(Qt::UserRole, "thumb" + QString::number(ui->ImageThumbList->count())); // probably not necessary for you
QString strTooltip = "a tooltip"
pItem->setToolTip(strTooltip);
ui->ImageThumbList->addItem(pItem);
Update on Artfunkel's answer:
Here's a PySide6 demo that uses a "Populate" button to run the for loop adding items to the scroll area. Each button will also delete itself when clicked.
from PySide6.QtWidgets import *
app = QApplication([])
scroll = QScrollArea()
scroll.setWidgetResizable(True) # CRITICAL
inner = QFrame(scroll)
inner.setLayout(QVBoxLayout())
scroll.setWidget(inner) # CRITICAL
def on_remove_widget(button):
button.deleteLater()
def populate():
for i in range(40):
b = QPushButton(inner)
b.setText(str(i))
b.clicked.connect(b.deleteLater)
inner.layout().addWidget(b)
b = QPushButton(inner)
b.setText("Populate")
b.clicked.connect(populate)
inner.layout().addWidget(b)
scroll.show()
app.exec()

I want to make a custom slider

I made a simple slider by jcarousellite but i need to make something else:
I need the first visible image to be large what should i do ?
Or how i can select the first visible image in slider?
#option start : number - default is 0 #example $(".carousel").jCarouselLite({
btnNext: ".next",
btnPrev: ".prev",
start: 2 }); #desc You can specify from which item the carousel should start. Remember, the first item in the carousel has a start of 0, and so on.

GTKmm - unable to set fixed size to Gtk::Scale widget

I am writing a simple photo viewer in C++ using gtkmm and I can not sort out how to set widget size. In the bottom of main window I have Gtk::Box with 3 buttons, a label and a Gtk::Scale widget. I would like to set fixed size to Gtk::Scale widget and buttons, and give rest of the space to label. I have only managed to set fixed size to buttons, and divide extra space evenly between label and scale widgets, by adding widgets like this:
bottom_box->pack_start(*left_button, false, false);
bottom_box->pack_start(*right_button, false, false);
bottom_box->pack_start(*filename_label, true, true);
bottom_box->pack_start(*image_zoom, true, true);
bottom_box->pack_start(*fit_button, false, false);
When I try to set both expand and fill to false while adding image_zoom to bottom_box, the widget is way to small, and set_size_request() makes no change. Is there another way to do it?
Code responsible for creating the window is here (the rest is in the repository): https://github.com/jjkrol/ZPR/blob/master/src/gui.cpp
Thank you very much in advance.
I've sorted this out, I think the problem was associated with fact that I've called set_size_request() before adding Gtk::Scale to Gtk::Box.

Rebol/View: How to assign images to layout already created?

Using Rebol/View 2.7.7, I'm trying to create a card game based on Nick's Rebol tutorial at: http://re-bol.com/rebol.html#section-10.18. What I want to do though is read the cards from the binary file Nick created, discard some of the data, and use it to layout a tableau of cards, 4 rows of 3 columns, with the 2 center card locations not used.
Here's my code:
protect-system
random/seed now
do %cards.r ;--include the binary card data
the-tableau: [
size 320x480 backdrop 0.170.0
style tabstyle image 80x100 teal
style holdplace box 80x100 coal
across
at 30x20 tc1: tabstyle
tc2: tabstyle
tc3: tabstyle return
at 30x130 tc4: tabstyle
tc100: holdplace
tc5: tabstyle return
at 30x240 tc6: tabstyle
tc200: holdplace
tc7: tabstyle return
at 30x350 tc8: tabstyle
tc9: tabstyle
tc10: tabstyle
]
lc: copy []
lc: [tc1 tc2 tc3 tc4 tc5 tc6 tc7 tc8 tc9 tc10]
deck-cards: copy [] ; The deck holds all of the cards from the binary file
deck-cards-num: copy []
deck-cards-color: copy []
lay: layout the-tableau
foreach [card label num color pos] cards [
dimg: load to-binary decompress (card)
append deck-cards dimg ;feel movestyle
throw-away-label: label
append deck-cards-num num
append deck-cards-color color
throw-away-pos: pos
]
random-card: does [pick deck-cards random length? deck-cards]
foreach c lc [set-face get c deck-cards]
view lay
do-events
But this doesn't show the cards at all. I'm not even sure it's reading the correctly? Where is the problem?
Actually you didn't use the random-card function in your for loop at the end... :-)
foreach c lc [get c set-face get c random-card ]
You note that you are not sure if data was loaded correctly...
here is a simple way to find out... just print/probe the TYPE? of that data
dimg: load to-binary decompress (card)
probe type? dimg
In this case it will print out image! in the console... so yep... that's working. :-)
As an added little detail, I noticed you didn't compensate your random for the "back face" image in the card data (which is at its end), so the random-card function should be fixed like so:
random-card: does [pick deck-cards random (length? deck-cards) - 1] ; - 1 since we don't want the back face to be picked.
You only need 'do-events if the event loop is not started.
View/new does not start the event loop .. but View does
I'm not addressing your actual problem though :(
to make the do-events note clear, I added a little answer here so I can add some inline code....
here is an example where you'd want your do-events to be used.
view/new lay ; display the interface right now. (with no cards)
random-card: does [pick deck-cards random (length? deck-cards) - 1] ; - 1 since we don't want the back face to be picked.
; deal cards with a half second delay.
foreach c lc [f: get c set-face get c random-card wait 0.5]
do-events
here, any code you put after 'DO-EVENTS will be executed once all view windows have closed.
which can be things like tmp file cleanup, save on exit, "save changes" dialogs, etc.
additional note:
While building graphics code, its a good habit to place this at the very start of you application:
print " "
It will open up the console, and then any view windows will show up in front of it.
When ready to share, just comment the line and remove any print statements in your code.
this is useful for 3 things:
1) Its usually highly annoying when the console always pops-up over your application while its tracing (print/probe/etc) some stuff after your window opens.
2) This also has the more useful side-effect of showing you if your application quit correctly since the console will ALSO quit when all waits have terminated correctly.
In your original example, if you add the above print, then you'll see that the console never closes, so this means the application is still running with no more application windows listening to events.
3) It also has the advantage that you can terminate the graphic app directly by closing the console window. This effectively closes all windows and waits immediately and shortcuts any "on application quit" code you might have (code after do-events).

Use Dojo Drag and Drop together with Dojo Moveable

I'm using Dojo.dnd to transfer items between to areas. The problem is: the items will snap into place once I drop them, but I'd like to have them stay where I drop them, but only for one area.
Here's a little code to explain this better:
<div id="dropZone" class="dropZone">
<div id="itemNodes"></div>
<div id="targetZone" dojoType="dojo.dnd.Source"></div>
</div>
"dropZone" is a DIV that contains two dojo.dnd.Source-areas, "itemNodes" (created programmatically) and "targetZone". Items (DIVs with images) should be dragged from a simple list out of "itemNodes" into "targetZone" and stay where they are dropped. As soon as they are dragged out of "targetZone" they should snap back to the list inside "itemNodes".
Here's the code I use to create the items:
var nodelist = new dojo.dnd.Source("itemNodes");
{Smarty-Loop}
nodelist.insertNodes(false, ['<img class="dragItem" src="{$items->info.itemtext}" alt="{$items->info.itemtext}" border="0" />']);
{/Smarty-Loop}
But this way I just have two lists of items, the items dropped into "targetZone" won't stay where I dropped them. I've tried a loop dojo.query(".dojoDndItem").forEach(function(node) to grab all items and change them to a "moveable"-type:
using dojo.dnd.move.constrainedMoveable will change the items so they can always be moved around (even in "itemNodes")
using dojo.dnd.move.boxConstrainedMoveable and defining the "box" to the borders of "targetZone" makes it possible to just move the items around inside "targetZone", but as soon as I drop them, I can't grab and move them back out. (Strange: dojo.connect(node, "onMoved" doesn't work here, the even won't fire, no matter what.)
So here's the question: is it possible to create two dnd.Sources where I can move items back and forth and let the items be "moveable" only in one of the sources?Or is there a workaround like making the items moveable and if they're not dropped into "targetZone" they'll be moved back to the list in "itemNodes" automatically?
Once the page is submitted, I have to save the position of every item that has been placed into "targetZone". (The next step will be positioning the items inside "targetZone" on page load if the grid has already been filled before, but I'd be happy to just get the thing working in the first place.)
Any hint is appreciated.
Greetings, Select0r
There is no direct support for such features. It can be done with a custom code, e.g., by subclassing a Source and overriding its insertNodes().
Here's a quick workaround to get this working:
I ended up using only one DIV which is a dojo.dnd.Source and contains the items that should be dropped into a "dropZone" and moved around in it while snapping back to the item-list when placed outside the dropZone.
All items are a dojo.dnd.move.parentConstrainedMoveable to make them movable in the originating DIV. Connecting to onMoveStop will give me the opportunity to decide whether the "drop" has occured in the dropZone or somewhere else.
if (coordX >= (dropCoords.l + dropAreaX) &&
coordX <= (dropCoords.l + dropAreaX + dropAreaW) &&
coordY >= (dropCoords.t + dropAreaY) &&
coordY <= (dropCoords.t + dropAreaY + dropAreaH))
{
// OK!
}
else
{
// outside, snap back to list
}
dropAreaX and dropAreaY contain the coordinates where the dropZone starts, dropAreaW and dropAreaH contain its width and height.
If "OK!", the items will be saved into an array, so I know which items have been dropped. Otherwise the item will be removed from that array (if it's in there) and the item will be placed back into the list (via CSS "left: 0"). The number of elements in the array will tell me how many elements are left in the list, so I can "stack" them in a loop using "top: numberOfElement * heightOfElement px").
There's more to it as I need the items coordinates written to hidden fields, but I guess this should get anybody who's working on a similar problem on the right track.
