52.28 Other Widgets Events
Each Qt signal can be used in RingQt, just add Set before the signal name and add event after the signal name to get
the method that can be used to determine the event code.
For example the QProgressBar class contains a signal named valueChanged() To use it just use the function setVal-
ueChangedEvent()
Example:
Load "guilib.ring"
New qApp {
win1 = new qMainWindow() {
setwindowtitle("QProgressBar valueChanged Event")
progress1 = new qprogressbar(win1) {
setGeometry(100,100,350,30)
setvalue(10)
setvaluechangedevent("pChange()")
}
new qpushbutton(win1) {
setGeometry(10,10,100,30)
settext("increase")
setclickevent("pIncrease()")
}
showMaximized()
}
52.28. Other Widgets Events 468
12. Ring Documentation, Release 1.4.1
exec()
}
func pIncrease

###------------------------------------------------------
### Fuction TimerMan: calling interval 100 milliseconds
func pTime
### Stop Timer when image is size of Window area
if imageW > BoxWidth
TimerMan.stop()
imageStock.clear() ### Will clear the image
ok
### Grow image
imageW += GrowBy
imageH = imageW / AspectRatio
### Scaled Image: Size-H, Size-V, Aspect, Transform
