Size of Radiobox

Post by Barbara.Kreische »

Hello Support Team, how can I change the size of radio buttons in the Radiobox-object? The change of text size has no influence. We use WinCCOA 3.11. Thanks & Regards Barbara Kreische

The look&feel (size, shape) of the radio and checkbox buttons is defined by the used style.
The only possibilty is to use a stylesheet or to implement a new style plugin in c++

You'll find that using the Qt stylesheets is an amazing feature. We have implemented some fantastic looking drop-down menus without any scripting or C++ code. Just by doing some Qt styling.

Good luck !

How can I get access to the basic definitions? I have never used Qt. When I want to change the definition of an element like radiobox in this way, how can I differ between the standard, which should be not changed, and my project specific definitions? Thanks & Best Regards

Im not in the office and dont have access to my samples. Basically there are twi ways to dtyle certain objects:

A. By name of the object. Eg style all buttona that gave a certain name
B. By name of its parent panel

I can show yiu exame in couple of days. Or, google the qt pages

Martin: can you post an example ?

Hello,

when looking at the attribute editor for a graphical object you will see the entry "Typname".
With this entry you define a unique name which is also used then at the stylesheet. All objects with a matching "Typname" will use the settings made at the stylesheet.
For further information please have a look at the WinCC OA online help: Graphics Editor (GEDI) --> Style Sheets in UI or search for the keyword "stylesheet".
