When you look at the Qt docs, you can look at the very top of the documentation for class, to see under which module/namespace it resides. Also there is documentation that breaks down classes by each module: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/modules-cpp.html > > > > > > > > > The only way I solved this was not from looking a the Qt Documentation, > > > On Tuesday, October 17, 2017 at 12:34:56 PM UTC-7, Justin Israel wrote: > >> >> >> On Wed, Oct 18, 2017, 8:17 AM jettam <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> >>> When I run this code I get this error.
