Issue
There is a Search field with the magnification-lens and a greyed out "search" keyword at the top right corner of stackoverflow.com web site:
I wonder if it is possible to achieve a same appearance with QLineEdit
. If so then how?
Solution
Simple Way for Dummies
- Add a
QLineEdit
, and set it frameless byQLineEdit::setFrame
- Add a
QLabel
with background color in white (by stylesheet) and a icon - Combine the line edit and the label with a layout, set spacing to 0
- Set placeholder text with
QLineEdit::setPlaceholderText
Result
Advanced Way
Check this thread: "Can QLineEdit do this?"
And the related python code: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~henning-schroeder/%2Bjunk/qtwidgets/annotate/head:/qtwidgets/lineedit.py
Or
"How to do - inside in QLineEdit insert the button.[pyqt4]"
Basically customized a QLineEdit
by painting a widget(label, button or even combobox) onto it. Then reset the margin, cursor, padding and the paint event. No magics!
