> > However I get exaclty the same results. Nothing. > Ok.. I worked with this more tonight and I don't think you can do what I want to do with stock Qt widgets. The core problem seems to be that I'm *not* trying to do this in the __init__ method but rather from a slot thats gets called in response to a button press.
If I move my code up into my __init__ method for the window class then it all works fine but the same stuff does not work when run from my slot. Reading the QT docs seems to suggest that once a layout has been rendered then its not very easy to change. Basically I want to create an app with one window. On this window there is an area where buttons appear and dissapear depending on what the user does. I don't want to open a new window. I'm designing this app to be used via a touchscreen and eventually the app will run fullscreen perhaps without a window manager or maybe eventually directly on the framebuffer via QT Embeded. So one window with lots of big buttons that come and go. But so far I don't see how I to delete buttons once they have been added. I thought a buttongroup would make this easy but perhaps not. The closest thing I've found in the docs to removing a widget is reparent() but the docs say: "Warning: It is extremely unlikely that you will ever need this function. If you have a widget that changes its content dynamically, it is far easier to use QWidgetStack or QWizard." But QWidgetStack and QWizard aren't what I'm looking for. QWidgetStack only displays one widget at a time and QWizard creates a whole new dialog. I just want A simple widget or container that I can change its contents dynamically. I'd be happy with just being able to delete the entire QButtonGroup from the from and recreate a new one with my contents. But It's not obvious how to do that. I've dynamically created a QButtonGroup with buttons and stuck it into a list but even after the list goes out of scope the buttogroup and buttons persist on the screen. Is there is a way to delete buttons from a ButtonGroup or delete things off of a form after its been rendered? -- Richard A.
