Naufalahad - Reg: Icon View

Hi all,

I am having a problem with QIcon list view,where in the above screen example they have added the image to the list widget,but when i declare an item1 in that coding i am not able to get the solution.

list=new QListWidget();
item1=new QListWidgetItem(QIcon("D:\\Blue hills.PNG"),"BlueHills",list);
item2=new QListWidgetItem(QIcon("D:\\Sunset.PNG"),"Sunset",list);
item3=new QListWidgetItem(QIcon("D:\\Water lilies.PNG"),"Water lilies",list);
item4=new QListWidgetItem(QIcon("D:\\Winter.PNG"),"Winter",list);

I am getting the error as :

error: incomplete universal character name \U

Hi Naufalahad

This article was written by Mind_freak a few years ago, and he might not be watching it. Suggest you either message directly through private messaging (hover over his name in the ArticleMetaData on top right of page) or ask question in the forums.

Looking at your error I'd say its probably nothing to do with this segment of code. This might be caused by an ill formed unicode character somewhere.

regards

Hamish

Qt Quick should be used for all UI development on mobile devices. The approach described in this article (based on QWidget) is deprecated.

This example shows how to create simple lists using a QListWidget populated withQListWidgetItems. QListWidget is a convenience class that provides a list view similar to the one supplied by QListView, but with a classic item-based interface for adding and removing items.

Various Function

• If this property is true, sorting is enabled for the list; if the property is false, sorting is not enabled. The default value is false.

 listWidget->setSortingEnabled(true);

Source Code

#include <QApplication>
#include <QWidget>
#include <QHBoxLayout>
#include <QListWidget>
#include <QListWidgetItem>
 
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
 
    QListWidget *listWidget = new QListWidget();
    listWidget->setSortingEnabled(true);
    listWidget->addItem(new QListWidgetItem("Oak"));
    listWidget->addItem(new QListWidgetItem("Banana"));
