Re: Qt Designer and Scalable Interfaces
by David on Thursday 04/Dec/2003, @06:31

This person obviously hasn't used Qt Designer. Scaleable layouts and widgets have been an integral part of Qt Designer for years. I have long slaved over scaleable UI issues in Visual Basic - it is an area where Microsoft has lagged behind. Strangely, Visual Studio now incorporates some UI development and layouts that are somewhat Qt-like.

Is it me or are we seeing more trolls from people regarding Qt from seemingly GTK or Gnome oriented people? I know we see people trolling regarding GTK from a Qt perspective, but I'm starting to see some sort of reasonably targetted campaign to undermine Qt from many quarters. It could be targetted or it could be a lot of coincidental stuff because 'the other side' feels desperate, I don't know.

Although I've used Glade for some GTK development and it is certainly good at what it does, it is no where near being as good as a combination of Qt Designer and KDevelop for developing on a more full-time basis. KDevelop may even end up be better at creating Gnome/GTK apps than anything Gnome based! Perhaps there may be some issues with cross-language support that can be addressed, but in terms of overall development structure KDE is streets ahead of anything.

I've seen some stupid trolls over the past few weeks and held my tongue because I didn't want any stupid flame-wars to occur. This is just my penny's worth and people can agree and disagree privately as they please.
