Any advice on how to create a simple help menu with Qt? I could not really find anything interesting in the examples.
What I have in mind is nothing too fancy like a whole window that looks like a web browser with a search engine, I just want to write few paragraphs, but maybe starting with links to each paragraph at the top, really like a basic web FAQ.
Thanks in advance!
If you want to implement it yourself, there are a number of ways.
That might be an overkill, but you can make your help as a number of local HTML pages which have links to each other, and use
QWebViewto show them to the user.A simpler method would be to use a list or articles with search:
QListWidgetto hold the names of the articles. When the user clicks one, you will open it.QLineEditwith aQCompleterattached to search through this list (by article name, nothing too complicated).QTextBrowserto display the article. Remember thatQTextBrowsercan render HTML, so you can make the articles look fancy.
