Hi,

Hi David,


while looking at the What's new for 6.9 I noticed that doc-snapshots.qt.io
changed branding to "Qt Group" instead of "Qt" (logo and colors, and some
style changes in the sidebar).
For example compare
https://doc-snapshots.qt.io/qt6-dev/whatsnew68.html
to
https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/whatsnew68.html
According to the wayback machine this must have changed after September
where it still looked "normal"

Is this change intentional and if so what are the reasons? To me at least it
appears that this is a "Qt" page and not a "Qt Group" one.

Thanks for noticing the updated style on doc-snapshots. What you see there is a 
deployment of the updated style which conforms to the new brand guidelines. The 
plan is to roll this out on doc.qt.io<http://doc.qt.io/> sometime soon, after 
fixing any technical issues that may pop up. So yes, in that sense it is an 
intentional change.

In terms of the reasons I'm told "Qt Group" is the brand name to be used 
everywhere unless referencing the legal entity is required; for example 
marketing, sales, on the website, in events, social media, and so on. Thus, as 
doc.qt.io<http://doc.qt.io/> contains the documentation for a range of products 
in addition to the Qt framework and Qt Creator, this is according to the new 
brand guidelines.

Apart from the change to the logo, do you have other feedback about the updated 
style? I'm particularly interested in anything that may impact its usability, 
as my main concern is with the utility of the site. Any feedback in that regard 
would be most welcome! :)
