    1:
    alt text
    Choose New file or Project

    2:
    alt text
    Select C++ class

    3:
    Give it a name and set base class to Qwidget
    alt text

    press NEXT, and then next again.

    4:
    we now have the new class and its cpp and .h added to the project
    alt text

    Lets add PaintEvent and MousePress

    Right click the name of the class in the .h file (MatrixWidget)
    and select the Refactor menu and add virtual function
    alt text

    Now type Paint in top
    and check the paintEvent function
    make sure the Insert option is as shown

    alt text

    Dont press OK yet!

    now type Press in top (where you had paint)
    and find the MousePress function and check that.

    Now Press ok.

    Then we are back to the code with our new functions.
    alt text

    Press F4 to switch to cpp file and see it has given you the bodies also.

    alt text

    Now you made your custom widget. ( it might seems a lot first time, but its very fast when used to it :)

    So next part is to add code to paintEvent to draw something.
    We also need your old reader code to get the data and stuff into our structure.

      @AliM93
      Thats the Insert Option part
      alt text

      Default its on something else.

      But no worries.

      Do you have them in .h with body also like
      alt text

      If yes, then click on the function name and go to the refactor menu again ( or press alt+enter)
      alt text
      and ask it to move it to .CPP
      do for both functions.

        we need my previous code to read the data from csv?

          @AliM93 said in Create a matrix from a .csv file:

          • the code that you wrote me i have to write into .h or .cpp? into the .h i suppose
            Yes the DataPoint class goes into .h as shown higher up.

          we need my previous code to read the data from csv?

          Yes, this has to be changed to add the values to the
          DataPoint Data[max_x][max_y];
          please post it.

              }
              file.close();
            ```this is in the .cpp file, and in the .h i put 
            

            QStandardItemsModel *csvModel;

            
            
            
            there are also some include in the cpp : 
            

            #include <QTableView>

            #include <iostream>
            #include <fstream>
            #include <sstream>

            
            and om the .h 
            

            #include <QStandardItemModel>

              Hi
              Super
              Now we add a new function to our new class.
              lets call it LoadData.

              add these to the .cpp 
              #include <QFile>
              #include <QTextStream>
              #include <QDebug>
              
              // this is changed version of your reader code
              void MatrixWidget::LoadData()
              {
                  QFile file("/home/alice/catkin_ws/src/agree_gui/resources/Punti_tappetino.csv");
                  if (!file.open(QFile::ReadOnly | QFile::Text)) {
                      qDebug() << "FIle not exist";
              
                  } else {
                      QTextStream in(&file);
                      while (!in.atEnd()) {
                          QString line = in.readLine();
                          QStringList list = line.split(";");
                          int x = list.at(0).toInt();
                          int y = list.at(1).toInt();
                          bool value = list.at(2).toInt();
                          if ( x < max_x && y < max_y) // to make sure we dont crash
                              Data[x][y].value = value; // here we store value
                          else
                              qDebug() << "x or y bigger than matrix!";
                      }
              
                  }
                  file.close();
              }
              
              

              Do you follow so far ?
              I have not tried this before so not sure how easy its to follow :)

                        }
                
                    }
                    file.close();
                }

                  and give me url ?
                  Then i also have some real data to read it to check loaddata works :)

                          yes also add to public section.
                          we might call it from outside so its public.

                                  nope its not cmake

                                  it seems you forgot the ending of the DataPoint class ?
                                  the }; part ?

                                  struct DataPoint {
                                      int x;
                                      int y;
                                      bool value;
                                      QColor DrawColor; // we change this from selected / not selected.
                                      bool isSelected; // we set this when we click on it.
                                  };

                                      @AliM93 said in Create a matrix from a .csv file:

                                      void::Matrixwidget LoadData?

                                      yes but mind the use of ::
                                      its only use outside class so in .h its just

                                      void LoadData();

                                          Ok, small fix.
                                          You data has max x,y as
                                          x: 14 y: 21
                                          so our array is one to small as we start in 0 (zero)
                                          so change

                                          const int max_x = 14;
                                          const int max_y = 21;

                                          to

                                          const int max_x = 15;
                                          const int max_y = 22;

                                          as else we drop some :)
