How to move an object in a curve path

[wehbi]

i have a button that should moved from point1 to point2 where point1 and point2 are at the same y position but different x position , this is the code:

animation = new QPropertyAnimation(ui->button, "geometry");
animation->setDuration(time);
animation->setStartValue(QRect(point1, size));
animation->setEasingCurve(QEasingCurve::Linear);
animation->setEndValue(QRect(point2,size));
animation->start();

my problem is that i want the moving path of the button from point1 to point2 is a semi circle or curve and not a line , how i can do that , plz help

Just a guess, but maybe you should use a different QEasingCurve value, like InCirc or OutCIrc.

thanks for ur reply,
when changing the value of QEasingCurve to InCirc or OutCIrc the acceleration of moving the button is change but its still moving in a linear path .
i want the button to move in a curve path , any help?

Subclass QButton and implement a "myProp" property (see http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.6-snapshot...-overview.html for how to do this). Animate just an integer or float value that goes from start to end, then, in the logic for setMyProp, compute your widget coordinates from that value.

thanks again,
i am using geometry property , after i set start and end value the button move from point1 to point2 but its move in a line path, but i want the movement to be in a cure not linear.i can make sequence animation in diagonal path but also its still in a linear path .

in this function animation->setEndValue(QRect(point2,size)); i use QRec , can i use a curve or other object ?

Yes, I know what you're using (it's in the code you posted). You're using the wrong thing, however.
