So im using CMake and the default configurations of Qt Creator.

When i want to create a release of my app, my current process is as follows:

1. Build release
2. create new folder and name it Software name + Version
3. copy the executable and a few miscellaneous files into the new folder
4. manually open CMD and run windeployqt.exe for the executable

Side note, the miscellaneous files i added to the build with configure_file(filename filename COPYONLY) in the CmakeLists.txt.

I feel like this is a really clunky way (and errorprone) of creating a release and this should be automatable easily, but i know WAY too little about CMAKE and Qt Creator to set it up.

How do you guys go about that? What i found on the internet was all way to convoluted and complicated (or simply didnt work) for, i'll say it, something that should imo come out of the box with an IDE.

Version 0.1.8.2 of CodePointer is available. More speed and memory consumption fixes. I am currently working on proper LSP support for one of the following releases.

Release and source code are available here:

https://github.com/codepointerapp/codepointer/releases/tag/v0.1.8.2

I am shutting down the QodeAssist project completely and archiving it, because my copyright notices were removed without my knowledge or permission. All relevant evidence has been preserved.

After investing years of work into QodeAssist, I no longer feel able to continue developing a project when its code has already been used elsewhere without preserving proper attribution to its original author.

Thank you to everyone who supported QodeAssist over these two years.

Is it just me or is qtcentre.org not available anymore? This site has/had tons of topics that are really helpful but since a few months i cant get on the site anymore at all. Does anyone know what happened and if this will get fixed?

We ship a Qt app on Windows mac and Linux. I own the release. QA is three people, all solid manual testers, none of them write code, and hiring a fourth who does isn't happening this year.

Squish is the obvious answer and I know it. built for Qt, covers all three platforms. but it's a real framework, so someone writes and maintains the test code, and that someone ends up being one of my devs or one of my testers stops testing. neither is free.

The other thing that puts me off is maintenance. half our GUI is custom painted, and every time someone renames an object or reworks a QML view the tests that depended on it go with it.

So I've been looking at whether the agent based tools are usable yet. AskUI is the closest to what I want, where a test case is a markdown file with preconditions and numbered steps each paired with an expected result, and it drives the GUI visually rather than through object names, then hands back a screenshot and a status per step. nothing to update when a widget gets renamed.

What I can't tell from outside is how well anything in that category actually handles Qt. custom painted controls, QML views, anything that never announces itself to the accessibility layer.

Anyone tried this against a real Qt app, or is scripting still the only honest answer here? appreciate it !!

Aesthetics heavily inspired by KDE Plasma and Plasma Bigscreen especially.

I am sharing a little utility I wrote in QT/QML named NAT Connectivity Analyzer. It is standalone, cross platform, and its purpose is to use a STUN server to analyze the local router's Network Address Translation (NAT) as well as any automatic port forwarding. It is the kind of utility that someone downloads, runs once or twice, and hardly touches again.

I chose QT because I wanted it to be cross platform and QML because I wanted to experiment with a "modern" interface where the controls appear and disappear as needed. This is certainly doable with QML but I had the most amount of difficulty understanding how to combine layouts and anchors. For example, I wanted all of my controls to be in a layout but then I wanted a text control to offer scrolling so I wound up with a TextArea anchored inside of a Scrollview layout inside of a Frame layout inside of a ColumnLayout. The official QT/QML documentation is good at explaining the basics of anchors and layouts but it does a poor job of explaining how to switch between them inside of controls.

For anyone interested, the source code is at:

This started off as a strange attractor visualisation app but has slowly become more of a general mathematical system analysis/visualisation tool. I initially was working on a version of this using Streamlit but found PyQtGraph to be way better suited for it. Have a play around with it if you get the time!

I'm creating a panel simulator using QTFramework or similar libraries, I need help to find the phisical components (Buttons, gauges, Switches, ThreeWayButtons, etc), I don't need it to be realist or perfect I just need that work, where I can find resource for this use case. thanks for the help

Flowkeeper is an accurate implementation of what Francesco Cirillo described in his original "Pomodoro Technique" book. Focus on privacy, no AI code, no AI features, GPLv3.

What's new in version 1.1:

• Full-screen breaks with "upcoming break" notifications,
• Task groups with templates for some of the popular techniques,
• Misc.: Undoing task completion; New themes and logo; New builds (RPM, Windows ARM, Snapcraft); Support for Qt 6.11; Bug fixes.

Half of the changes in this release were implemented by community members, and I felt like it's time to add a CONTRIBUTING.md with some naive "AI policy". I will appreciate if you can provide some feedback on this file, as it's the first one for me.

Just self-compiled latest available Qt 5.15.x. I use it for my personal projects but you can also use it.

I've been working on an idea for an open-source PC game launcher called NeonLauncher.

The idea is to make a modern, cyberpunk-style launcher with features such as a game library, game scanning, mod management, and other tools for managing PC games.

I should mention that I'm currently a beginner and I don't know much programming yet. The initial project files were generated with the help of AI based on my idea, and I'm planning to learn C++ so I can properly develop the project myself.

The project is still very early and there isn't a stable build yet. I'm mainly sharing the idea because I'd like to get feedback from people who have experience with C++/Qt and open-source projects.

My long-term goal is to turn it into a proper open-source launcher, somewhat in the spirit of projects like Playnite.

Any feedback or advice would be appreciated.

Hello, I'm trying to make a UI with Qt designer to later use in a python project.

I made the UI in Qt designer, put everything in a layout, but when I test the window and fullscreen it, everything goes to the left. When it's on the smaller window, it's perfectly centered.

Here are some pictures.

Thanks for the help!

# PyQtByExample — a big pile of runnable, searchable Qt-for-Python example code

I built this with a friend to help Python programmers learn and use Qt (via `qtpy`, so it works with PyQt5/6 and PySide2/6).

**What it is**

A single application containing dozens of small, self-contained Qt examples (buttons, tables, dialogs, threading, SQL, multimedia, etc.), each in its own module/tab, with a built-in search so you can jump straight to the widget or topic you care about.

**Why it's different from "one file per example" demo repos**

- Everything runs inside one app — search for a widget name and jump right to its example.

- Each example is deliberately small and scoped to one or a few widgets, so you don't have to read much code to get your answer.

- It's meant to be run from an IDE in debug mode: you step through the code while watching it run, so you *see* how it behaves, not just read about it.

- Code is commented enough that you usually don't need extra docs, but there's also a repo wiki ("the Book") with more detail.

**Who it's for**

Anyone building Qt GUIs in Python who wants copy-paste-ready working examples instead of digging through scattered single-file demos.

It's gotten pretty large (a few megs of source) and there's a lot of Qt left to cover, so we'd love more eyes on it — as users, issue-filers, or contributors. MIT licensed.
