The menu is not displayed when the design starts with Lazarus _3.xx Qt5

(1/1)

ecrypt:
The menu is not displayed when the design starts with Lazarus _3 which is installed from

https://sourceforge.net/projects/lazarus/files/Lazarus%20Linux%20amd64%20DEB/Lazarus%203.2/

https://gitlab.com/freepascal.org/lazarus/lazarus/-/commits/fixes_3_0/

And

All Using Lazarus_3.xx LCL widget type Qt5
On the other hand, if you use GTK2, the menu can appear

If using Lazarus_2.7.x LCL widget type Qt5 the menu is displayed during design, looks like the attached image

Could it be that I'm the only one experiencing this or are there others experiencing it?

No you are not the only one. There was a recent discussion a couple of days ago on this forum... it is al in the name of progress.. (and sorry, I can't be arsed to locate the thread).

Hey ecrypt, this will sound like a real cop out but, do you know you can make Qt5 apps in a GTK2 based IDE ? You do not have to be using a qt5 IDE. Don't think I am saying the problem you report here is insignificant, its not !

I recommend you do make you app in qt5 but use a gtk2 version of lazarus IDE to do so ! In fact, in most cases, you will find its trivial to make you app recompile using gtk2, qt5, qt6 ....

Hi
Hahaha... funny thing here, I do all my developing in laz3/qt5 and it's the first time I'd noticed, that the menu isn't showing @ designtime  :D %) :D
Works like a treat at runtime though  :-X
