Thank you Oliver! We tried playing with the -graphicssystem switch at the 
command line and after playing a little, we realized that it is actually coming 
from our serialization file. It looks as though the app loads fine when there 
is no user settings, but once the settings are read back in, the weird behavior 
arises. I thought originally that it was the other way around, but I was 
mistaken. Thank you for your help, now I get to figure out why the settings 
file works on Windows, but not on the Mac.

Thank You,
Eric

Hello All,

I am experiencing some very strange behavior when I load my application on Mac 
OSX for the first time.

I haven't encountered this particular bug of toolbar icon/button misplacement 
(but other various paint issues), but there were quite some changes/fixed up to 
recent Qt 4.8.x in the paint engine on OS X (mostly in the Qt's "Raster" paint 
engine, but also with regards to "native toolbars").

So the following experiments could be worthwhile:

* Try changing the paint engine: "Native" vs "Raster" (there's a command line 
switch which is evaluated by QApplication - check Qt docs)

* Upgrade to latest Qt 4.8.2

* If you're already using that one: downgrade to next minor version (Qt 4.7.x), 
if possible, to find out whether it is a regression

* (Repeat above step with "Raster" vs "Native"

* Enable/disable the use of the "native toolbar" to see whether that has an 
influence


Cheers,
  Oliver
