Description vanboxem.ruben 2011-05-18 18:04:57 UTC

Version:           4.5 (using KDE 4.5.4) 
OS:                MS Windows

When configuring Qt with mingw-w64, you should add -qt-style-windowsxp -qt-style-windowsvista" to the configure command so that all apps have the normal platform widgets. This is needed because Qt's configure does not detect the presence of the necessary headers automatically. These options allow the parts needed to be built, and produces a Qt library with nice widgets instead of stale old grey things.


Reproducible: Always

Ok, we will adapt our builds asap.

Comment 2 Patrick Spendrin 2012-02-23 14:32:21 UTC

ok, seems as if our builds already contain this.
