[SOLVED] qt4 refresh

[ravloony]

Hi all,

I am writing a quick and dirty gui using qt4 for a project I'm working on.

I need to iterate through a folder of pngs and display them, either in a sort of impromptu animation, or step by step.
So my question is: How do I get a QLabel to refresh its contents?

I have a QLabel called label, and I set its Pixmap using

Code: Select all

label->setPixmap(QPixmap("pic1.png"));

Resetting the pixmap seems to work if I do it once in a function, but not if I do it in a loop- it only refreshes the display after the loop is ended.

I can't find any information on this on the net for some reason.

Any thoughts?

Didn't try but a quick search in the docs suggests that you're looking for the Repaint or Update function inherited from QWidget.

Thanks a lot!
repaint() worked great. Of course it seems so obvious now...

Cheers!
