Hi, I want to request a late source incompatible change in QtPrintSupport. The QAbstractPritnDialog and QAbstractPageSetupDialog classes are completely unnecessary, are given as bad examples in the Qt API design standards, and were marked to be merged with QPrintDialog and QPageSetupDialog in Q

[Development] QtPrintSupport - Platform Support

[Development] System Locale Update broken

Hi, QTBUG-24543 reports that the tst_QLocale::windowsDefaultLocale() test is broken and is currently being skipped. I've determined this is because the Qt4 mechanism for triggering a refresh of the Qt system locale whenever the system locale is changed has been removed from qapplication_win.cp

Hi, Two essential areas need to be addressed. While these could be left for 5.1, I believe it would be far messier as a result because we would have 2 different API's that are subtly different and would lead to confusion and inconsistencies. 1) Change the Qt string format codes used to the CL
