Qt Tutorial : C++ Notepad App

Subscribe to Me: bit.ly/2FWQZTx
Best Qt5 Book : amzn.to/2Mg4LC9
I thought it would be fun to make a real app in this Qt Tutorial, so I made a working Notepad app. We'll install Qt for Windows and MacOS. Then we'll cover Qt Basics, Dialogs, Widgets, Drag and Drop Interfaces, Creating / Opening / Saving Files, Menus, Toolbars, Icons, Printing, and much more.
Qt is an amazing framework for creating cross platform C++ GUI applications.

[@FritsvanDoorn]

This is a true Derek Banas instructional video! In 2015 I did a project with Qt and C++ but then I did not had the Qt IDE available to use. It was an automatic control loop to verify the functioning of pressure transducers. My collegues all went on a Qt course, but on assigning parts of the project they discovered that they were one man short so they asked me. But I had not followed the Qt course. I read a book and just started using it and I finished the project with full satisfaction. I recently discovered that I used a lot the Facade Design Pattern to simplify the Qt calls. Guess where I learned to bring Design Patterns to practice. Thanks for the extra fun you bring in programming to the world.

It is my pleasure to help and I use it as an excuse for spending numerous hours learning just about everything. I'm currently teaching myself Japanese, Machine Learning and Piano for tutorials that I'll probably start uploading a year from now :)

[@russelwebb8853]

Derek Banas For your tutorials on piano, I suggest not teaching chords themselves. Teach some general patterns shared in chords with key placements and such. I just uploaded a video of myself playing a Steinway and Sons grand piano for 16 minutes. Maybe try approaching music from a more psychological/emotional level, and the power of music to convey feelings.

[@rustemusic]

[@fab0527]

Hey Derek, new to Qt. Trying to understand what the purpose of main.cpp is in qt, as opposed to CLI applications. Is the main window basically a replacement for main() ?

[@LinaAliceAnderson]

To make the app more complete it would be nice to handle the cases when a user presses cancel/X instead of specifying the file path/name in Open or Save as. The return value in these cases is an empty string, so: if (fileName.isEmpty()) return; To add a custom icon one can add the following to the main file: w.setWindowIcon(QIcon(":/imgs/your-icon-name.icon-extension")); The .exe file will be represented by the icon in Explorer if one adds in .pro file: RC_ICONS = your-icon-name.icon-extension

New here. The current installer for Qt configures things a bit differently.

This is really helpful in re-acquainting myself with Qt. However, for newbies like me, it's incredibly confusing when objects or variables are given names that could be confused with objects built in to Qt e.g. "text", "fileName" or "textFile". In C++ and other languages I work with I use prefixes such as "str" for Strings (strMyString), "bool" for Boolean (boolCycleIndex), "int" for integers (intCyclesToGo) or "flt" for floating point variables (fltDistanceToTheMoon). I look forward to following more of your tutorials.

When it makes me select a kit, i dont have any, what should i do?

[@exodus8814]

Hey Derek :) I have a question, do you think it's a worth it to watch handmade hero (all the 458 videos, those are uploaded daily and marked by Day and the number of the day) ? (he has a KZbin channel)

[@derekbanas]

If it motivates you better then anything else then sure. That is a major time investment WOW!!! I can't believe anyone has taken on a project that big! It all depends on you. I for example spend hours on Japanese every day knowing that it will probably be a year before I can read at the level I want to get to and it will take years for me to be anywhere near fluent.

[@exodus8814]

Derek Banas I know right!! That is a huge risk. I actually wish that you could do something similar but I can definitely say that very very few would watch it(I would:) ). It's really cool to see how a game engine is developed and how assembly and other low level stuff works.

Is it same for Qt 6?
