Here, I can't switch to Qt 5 yet, since that results in my applications looking non-native on KDE (since KDE is based on Qt 4.) This is a big no-no for me. Another deal breaker for me is that Qt 5 seems to have non-native font rendering in Linux. Fonts look washed out with lots of gray in them, compared to the nice, fat black fonts of every other Qt4 and Gtk application. This results in Qt 5 apps looking like the odd man out. Also, rendering of PCF fonts is completely broken and pixel garbage is rendered around the glyphs. These are Linux issues though. If you're not interested in Linux, these things won't affect you. _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
