 I've seen this kind of thing before. Usually, my solution is to do what you
 did: Edit the ui file manually. You could try posting this to the Qt Creator
 mailing list, though. The main developer of that program is a good friend of
 LyX.

OK, I will research some more and if I can't find a solution I will
post to the mailing list.
If the minor changes it makes are predictable, I wonder if a script
would do the job. Not ideal, but it might beat manual editing which
could also lead to mistakes.

Thanks for the advice,

Qt Creator is able to open the CMake files directly. It will generate a

Great, thanks for all of the advice! I just noticed a .ui folder in the
source code, which I think suggests using Creator(?). In any case, I'm
convinced.

Those are normally edited using Qt Designer, which is integrated into Qt
Creator, but you can also use it separately.

Has anybody tried QtCreator under Windows with Msvc and cdb?
Is it a serious alternative to Studio?
