I stumbled upon these two EPIC's in JIRA today - the first was recently updated, the second one is two days old now: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-72086 https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-74049 So while there is currently no commitment to start a bigger development task, it seems that

Ok, thanks for clarifying that. It's not just me though, there are *many* people using Qt that have +1d me and stated that they agree with me. Your customer survey reported 20% using Mobile. I'm just very vocal about it. I've done many Mobile apps in Qt, each with their own constellation of

2019-02-27 Thread Jason H
So am I correct interpreting that Qt on mobile is "finished", and we're on our own? (Aside from maintenance) Your statement "often quite straightforward to capture in a cross-platform API." seems like a "let them eat cake" moment. I really think you are missing the point that these

[Interest] adding widgets to native file dialogs?

2019-02-27 Thread René J . V . Bertin
Hi, What options are there to add widgets (e.g. a preview widget) to QFileDialog instances or descendants, which will work with "native" dialogs? I'm looking into an issue with Scribus where this is achieved by embedding the entire QFileDialog instance into its parent, i.e. by setting it to be
