Hi list, I think we should treat as a priority for lenny at least a better look and feel (by default) for qt apps on GNOME and gtk+ apps running on KDE.
I'm testing reportbug-ng (pyqt3) on my GNOME (Etch) environment and it doesn't look good. It was almost useless due to the ugly presentation but I did some tweaks and it's still missing some bits, see: * bzr branch http://bzr.debian.org/bzr/reportbug-ng * aptitude install pyqt-tools kde-style-klearlook qt3-qtconfig * cd reportbug-ng * make * ./reportbug-ng wow, scary, no? * qtconfig It doesn't really matter what default GUI style you pick, the font matters a lot. We might use the same family as in GNOME, IMHO. I'm unable to make the grey in qt apps looks the same as in gtk+ apps. Is this a color palette issue? If yes, qt3-qtconfig (and maybe qt4-qtconfig) are broken. Let's go fix their defaults and send patches for the maintainers. Thoughts? :) I think the side effect of this fix is that Xfce will also benefit. Could somebody using KDE and GTK+ apps inform us about gtk-qt-engine usage? The best scenario for us is simple list qt3-qtconfig, qt4-qtconfig and maybe kde-style-klearlook into buth gnome-desktop and xfce-desktop tasks and gtk-qt-engine into kde-desktop task and it just works. Feedback is appreciated. thanks in advance, -- stratus http://stratusandtheswirl.blogspot.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
