QTimeEdit set max value greater than 23:59:59

Question

Is there any way to increase the maxValue of QTimeEdit to for example 26:00:00?

I would like to use it to a duration fied in my application.

Answer 1

According to documentation:

• When setting this property, the minimumTime is adjusted if necessary to ensure that the range remains valid. If the time is not a valid QTime object, this function does nothing. ( http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qdatetimeedit.html#maximumTime-prop )
• The time is valid if h is in the range 0 to 23, m and s are in the range 0 to 59, and ms is in the range 0 to 999. ( http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qtime.html#isValid-2 )

So it is not possible.

Answer 2

From this thread , it seems that QTimeEdit is inappropriate for that purpose. For the reasons you give.

Here is one solution for that specific issue. http://gitorious.org/qtimespandevel
