QScrollArea::ensureVisible() doesn't work

[symbi4n_programmer]

Hi all,

I use a QScrollArea in a QWidget view. I add several QWidget´s in the QScrollArea, my example code:

QVBoxLayout* grid;
grid = new QVBoxLayout(this);
grid->setAlignment(Qt::AlignTop);
for (int i(0); i<100; i++)
{
    QLabel *timeTitleLabel = new QLabel(ui.scrollWidgetContents);
    timeTitleLabel->setText(QString("test%1").arg(QString::number(i)));
    timeTitleLabel->setMinimumHeight(25);
    timeTitleLabel->setMaximumHeight(25);
    timeTitleLabel->setMinimumWidth(180);
    timeTitleLabel->setMaximumWidth(180);
    timeTitleLabel->setAlignment(Qt::AlignCenter);
    grid->addWidget(timeTitleLabel, 0, Qt::AlignLeft);
}
ui.scrollWidgetContents->setLayout(grid);
ui.scrollWidgetContents->adjustSize();
    
ui.scrollArea->ensureVisible(0, 1000);

The scroll area it is positioned at initial position instead of at y = 1000. What´s wrong?

Best regards.

if ur trying to scroll the area to a defined position
try to use the following
scrollArea->verticalScrollBar()->setSliderPosition(1000);

Best Regards,

It has the same effect.

What´s wrong?

I had sort of similar issue way back. The issue for me was that the scrollbars weren't visible, so they didn't do any scrolling, even if nicely asked. So ensure that your horizontal/vertical scrollbars are visible?
