I think I came to that conclusion just before I left the office, and think I'll cut my losses... I'm learning Qt (and PyQt) for QGIS, so it's quite comforting that Qt 5 isn't going to be needed for a while, and 4.8 will be fine for the forseeable... Thanks for your help, and for the work you've been doing on QGIS on OS X. -- Anzir Boodoo, PhD student The Institute for Transport Studies, The University of Leeds, LEEDS LS2 9JT QUEEN'S ANNIVERSARY PRIZE WINNERS - 'sustained transport excellence' - www.its.leeds.ac.uk/queensprize _______________________________________________ PyQt mailing list PyQt@riverbankcomputing.com http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt
