Qt open source lgplv3

Tank's for all the replies but, I think all the linking stuff and such is a bit too much for me. Then I will have to revert to other GUI frameworks for my project to avoid any conflict with qt licenses and all the bad stuff.

You do realise that this is nothing Qt specific ? LGPL is a license used by many other libraries/framework.
Just use the classic dynamic linking and the information requested (there's an aboutQt slot in QGuiApplication just for that) and you are good to go.

You have to add this static AboutQt dialog to your app, when you want to release it?

It does not need to be that specific dialog, you can make your own. License states that you have to inform your users that Qt is being used under LGPL - exactly how you will do that is up to you.

Ok, thank you for all that replies. I'll take another try. But I still have one problem. Can any of you who have worked with Qt 5.* and Sqlite3 recommend me a Qt framework or something? (So something like in .NET the Entity Framework to not have to write every query myself and I need to be able to use it with the open-source LGPL v3 version even if I have my source code private and want to sell the program for a small price).

QtSQL
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtsql-index.html

Can be used as GPL/LGPL and provides a lot of helpful classes.

not have to write every query myself

Depends on what you want to do with your database / data. There are models/views where you dont have to write every query, but most of them work only with simple database structures. For anything else more complex, you have to create your own model/view.

For example: QTableView + QSqlTableModel for single-table queries

Kk, thanks it has worked. I have now used QStyledItemDelegate to make the UI stylesheets work.
Now I have a problem, when I select a row in my QTableView, the fields that I have filled with painter->drawText are not highlighted with a color in the background. However, with the QItemDelegate, this works. Can someone please help me, because I can not find a solution on the Internet.
So either a possibility in the QItemDelegate to change the background color of a selected row or in the QStyledItemDelegate, that the fields I myself have filled via the delegate are also highlighted with color when selected. I believe with the QItemDelegate this works with the selecting since I work there with drawDisplay and drawFocus, these functions do not exist however with the QStyledItemDelegate unfortunately.

QItemDelegate with drawDisplay() and drawFocus()

QStyledItemDelegate with painter->drawText() and in .ui defined stylesheet for pseudo state selected and focus

Hi,

It's up to you to test the state through the options you get in the paint function and draw the highlight rectangle.

pavll

Ok, and have you got a hint for me, how I can change the background color of the options.rect for the QItemDelegate where the standard is blue for selected and my stylesheet doesn't apply to this, so i have to do this in code.

SGaist

Well, use options.state to get the state and draw the rectangle accordingly. I am not sure what more information you need.
