    Hi and welcome to devnet, That sounds like a regression. One thing you can check is the default format used in 6.9.0 and compare it with 6.9.1.

    Hi, It's in fact pretty simple: you don't need any UI files to build a Qt interface. It's a nice helper though.

    @AndyBrice I'm using the latest version of Qt and macOS/iOS 26. Nothing is compatible with Qt 6.9 and everything renders in the old version style.

    Hi and welcome to devnet, Does it happen with only a single file or are they all affected ? It there somewhere a sample file that could be used to test this issue ? Which OS are you running your application on ?

    @sierdzio said in Best practice for QTs parent/child memory model and clang-tidy: auto widget = QPointer(new QGraphicsWidget); This just creates a QPointer which gets destroyed on leaving the scope for the sake of satisfying a tool. This is anti-programming in my pov.

    @rcx11 it uses a similar approach to gRPC/QtRemoteObjects in that the files that are compiled are generated using calls to the generators via cmake. I checked Qt6.10.0 on windows 11 and indeed, until you configure the file cannot be found: The file that generated (for reference of others reading this thread): [image: 8bfbacc8-18a1-419d-9f48-7757554d7203.png] I'd recommend marking as resolved with @Paul-Colby 's response.

    It works fine for me with Qt6.9.1 with the windows11 style: int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { QApplication app(argc, argv); QTableWidget tw; tw.setRowCount(5); tw.setColumnCount(1); auto item = new QTableWidgetItem("Item"); tw.setItem(0, 0, item); QTimer::singleShot(2000, &tw, [&]() { tw.item(0, 0)->setCheckState(Qt::Checked); }); tw.show(); return app.exec(); } Please provide a minimal, compilable example of your problem.

    @SGaist Thanks for your help. I already have access to QtWebKit. Its there in my Qt installation. Crash is intermittent so inferring what content triggers crash might not be easy. I am trying to figure out again if I can instead use QWebEngine. Lets see, hopefully I wont have to use QtWebKit.

    hi @aha_1980 Thanks for the reply. Before I got it, I'd just started doing a thing where I was counting the bytes read back in and only starting to take any notice of the data when I had read in the number of bytes sent out, so I was along the right lines. It's a bit of a pain, but with what you're saying about bytesReceived being called not being a guarantee it's gone out on the line, I guess it's not going to help anyway. For a while I have been thinking I need to get to grips with QSerialPort but as I know qextserialport so well I've been lazy. I do know that in v6 qext... is no longer available. Thanks for the post.

    @AndyBrice said in Cache locality and QString: Ok, thanks for the feedback. It looks like there is no straightforward ways to improve performance, while keeping the flexibility I need. Correct. The optimization will come at a cost of working only when on a predictable subset of real world data. Because you've stated that you need a generalizaed solution, the optmization tricks wont work reliably. If you can assign hard limitations to your dataset...THEN you can consider what kinds of optimiztions make sense.
