QMaemo5InformationBox Text Color

[tmsha]

Hi, When I use this code:

QMaemo5InformationBox::information(this, "This is a Maemo5<b>banner<b>",QMaemo5InformationBox::NoTimeout);

with my application the color of the text is white (this is not good on yellow background), I have tried to change the parent widget WindowText palette to black but it does not seem to work.. (The default color for my widget is white text color..)

Any ideas ?

Hi,

it might be that it is because you are using another theme? Or it inherits the font-color from the parent. An easy solution would be to call the banner like:

QMaemo5InformationBox::information(this, "<font color='black'>This is a Maemo5<b>banner<b></font>",QMaemo5InformationBox::DefaultTimeout);

This should do the trick.

Thank you Daniel, I just figured this out myself a few minutes ago and was about to paste the solution.

Now.. there is a new problem i discovered: After a message is shown to the screen and i click on the background to remove it, i cannot access the application menu anymore when its shown i normal view mode (when in fullscreen the menu works). And the rotation(landscape/portrait) stops working too. I need to minimize and maximize the window to make the menu and rotation work again. Any ideas on this ?

Hi,

sounds like a bug to me. But I will try it and come back to you. Latest tomorrow.

I noticed this bug myself, but forgot to report it because I was in the middle of something. Done now, you can track it here: http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-7887

Thanks for reporting it, you should add that its also the case with rotation aware widgets.. They wont get rotation information after showing informationbox.

I'll do that, but you can also leave a comment there yourself. ;)

Somehow the rotation events works now. I guess it was not related..
