Use QMessageBox to choose from a list of options

I'm newly moving from Java to Qt, and I have a question. In JOptionPane you can pass an array of choices and JOptionPane will automatically make a combo box for the user to select a choice from. Is something analogous to this possible in Qt with QMessageBox or another native Qt element?

Solution

  • You should use QInputDialog::getItem(). For example:

    QStringList fruits;
fruits << "Apple" << "Banana" ... ;
QString fruit = QInputDialog::getItem(this, "Select fruit", "Fruit:", fruits);
