DzScrollView help

djigneo

What's the trick to getting the DzScrollView to show a (in this case vertical) slider?

var oDialog = new DzDialog();var oScrollView = new DzScrollView(oDialog);var oGrp = new DzVGroupBox(oScrollView);oGrp.columns = 1;for (var i = 0 ; i < 20; i++) {		var oCheckBox = new DzCheckBox(oGrp);}oDialog.exec();

Produces the attached image (after manually resizing dialog).

I suspect it's something on oScrollView.getWidget(), but I'm coming up with nothing. Any hints?

 

Edit: To clarify what I'm trying to accomplish, I'm attempting to display a list of items in a dialog which may be larger (vertically) than the dialog will support I would like to put them in a vertical scroll pane so that the user may scroll to see them all.

According to the documentation DzScrollView is deprecated, and they suggest using DzScrollArea instead.

This will give you a scroll bar:

var oDialog = new DzDialog();var oScrollArea = new DzScrollArea(oDialog);var oGrp = new DzVGroupBox(oScrollArea);oGrp.columns = 1;for (var i = 0 ; i < 20; i++) {  var oCheckBox = new DzCheckBox(oGrp);}oScrollArea.setWidget(oGrp);oDialog.exec();

Thanks! After a bit of fiddling I got it to function correctly. The setWidget() line was indeed the majority of the culprit, though I can't say I completely understand what that line is supposed to do.

DzScrollArea is a wrapper for QScrollArea. It is therefore safe to assume that DzScrollArea::setWidget() is simply a wrapper that provides access to QScrollArea::setWidget().

Thanks, Rob. I'll read up on the QT script to get a better handle on UI code.
