Re: Qt for Maemo 5 going Beta
 

Great news!
After hacking, i succeed to compile it with my twitter app on N900.
- examples/widgets don't includes images/landscape.png images/portrait.png but it works without.
- WebKit HTML page with Maemo big buttons look strange...
- for kinetic scroll could we control if we start horizontal swipe it locks vertical movements to only have left/right movements? instead of how it acts in table for kineticscroller.
- QDockWidget should not be use, i know. But could they display without titlebar/buttons by default. as an empty pane.
- as for zoom buttons, camera button access would be cool

So now the question is Qt or GTK? if I start a project now with Qt4.6. will 4.6 replace 4.5 soon...

Haha. Perhaps you'll end up setting a new trend, Quim!

Re: Qt for Maemo 5 going Beta
 

ok so.. im kinda... just a... end-user type of guy lost in the bushes in here.

ive seen QT videos on youtube running on n900 and really loved it.

just wanna ask..do i just download the QT beta from the extras-devel?

install and then it'll start working? no code typing and other stuffs?


oh and how do you add the extras-devel on app catalog? (sorry guys, really new guy here)

Re: Qt for Maemo 5 going Beta
 

Qt is a developer framework to build applications, not a application. But there is some cool applications made with Qt already in the repositories, probably the ones that you saw in youtube.

Re: Qt for Maemo 5 going Beta
 

bulelet,

I think you might be a little confused about what Qt is - perhaps not, but just in case, quick explanation:

Qt is a development library, that application developers can use to develop their own individual applications faster, better, and cooler.

Some applications on n900 use Qt, some don't.

You probably don't want to install Qt individually on your n900 (unless you're doing some odd kind of development with it on your device), but instead, whenever you install an application that uses it, it will be silently and automatically pulled in for you (and kept up to date afterwards, like everything else). :)

Hope this helps.

oohhhh..ok i might need a lil bump on the head.

saw this: http://qt.nokia.com/doc/qt-maemo-4.6...-rotation.html

and MAN,can someone PLEASE come up with that app (oh apologies, its a "widget") aready.

cant always use my 2 hands when trying to place a call. LOL

Re: Qt for Maemo 5 going Beta
 

Hmm. If you mean you want to call people with portait mode, you can already - tap the top menu bar with the call application open and customise it - you can even set it to auto-open if you rotate the phone, which might be useful if you do that a lot :)
