QLabel sizehint is too small

问题

I have a QAbstractItemDelegate and in the paint method, I am trying to paint the text from a label. But the problem I am seeing is that the size hint of the QLabel is always too small for the text it contains. How can I fix this? For example:

QLabel *testlabel = new QLabel();
testlabel->setText("This is some test text that doesnt fit:");
testlabel->adjustSize();

QRect rect(testlabel->geometry());
Qt::Alignment alignFlags = testlabel->alignment();

painter->setFont(testlabel->font());
painter->drawRect(rect);
painter->drawText(rect, alignFlags, testlabel->text());

And then it looks like:

Any ideas why the bounding rectangle is too small? Thanks Stephen

回答1:

If you are just trying to draw a bounding rectangle (or something related), you should get the painter's font metrics and ask for a bounding rectangle for the text you want to display. There are different versions of QFontMetrics::boundingRect that will allow you to specify a containing rectangle so word wrapping will be taken into consideration.

回答2:

why don't you use virtual QSize QLabel::sizeHint () const for getting the sizehint? it seems to be more reliable, because adjustSize();geometry() depends on the label being actually drawn onto something. but you don't draw the label (QWidget), but only it's text (QString), so adjustSize/geometry are more likely to fail than sizeHint.

see: http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.8/qwidget.html#sizeHint-prop

EDIT: oh, and using sizeHint would also simplify your code...
