    Hi,

    After I switched over to Qt5 password echomode stopped working and it's not showing the asterisk signs anymore. Even if I set inputMethodHints to Qt.ImhNone nothing is shown. How can I get the asterisks back?

      Ok, got it working right after posting this... I had to set also passwordCharacter to "*" in addition to setting inputMethodHints to Qt.ImhNone.
