Question

//in my .h file i have:
void on_doubleSpinBox_test_valueChanged(double t);

//in my .cpp(mainwindow):
void MainWindow::on_doubleSpinBox_test_valueChanged(double t)
{
    ui->lineEdit_test->setText(QString::number((double) t/2));
}

My problem is that when i set the value for lineEdit in SpinBox everything works, however in doubleSpinBox there is no message sent (changing value doesn’t work).
What am i doing wrong? How to make this method to work?

Answer 1

The valueFromText and textFromValue methods might do what you want. They allow displaying the value of the spin box in a customized format, such as always displaying half the value of the spin box as in your code above.

A sample of how to use the methods is in the class QSpinBox and they are used the same in QDoubleSpinBox.
