[lipos123]

HI,

I have a little problem when focusing on a scrollArea,
i am putting labels in a vertical layout, and then put this layout in the scroll area.
but i am loosing the focus on the scroll area.
Any help concerning my issue????
find below my coding, and thank you.
Best Regards,

for ( index_of_label = 0;index_of_label<50;index_of_label++)
{
myLabel[index_of_label] = new QLabel(myText,ui->scrollAreaWidgetContents );
myLabel[index_of_label]->setStyleSheet("QLabel { border-image: url(:/new/prefix1/1.png); } QLabel{color: rgb(225, 0, 0);}");
myLabel[index_of_label]->setText(teststring);
myLabel[index_of_label]->setWordWrap(true);
myLabel[index_of_label]->setMargin(6);
ui->verticalLayout->addWidget(myLabel[index_of_label]);

ui->verticalLayout->setMargin(5);
ui->scrollAreaWidgetContents->setLayout(ui->verticalLayout);
ui->scrollArea->setWidget(ui->scrollAreaWidgetContents);
ui->scrollArea->show();
}

DID you tried one of the following?

ui->scrollArea->setFocus();
or
ui->scrollArea->verticalScrollBar()->setFocus();

maybe that will solve it

Try:

ui->scrollArea->setFocusPolicy(Qt::StrongFocus);
ui->scrollArea->setFocus();

Though by default QAbstractScrollArea should have Qt::WheelFocus, which is almost the same.
