QtCreator & Linux Centos 9 VM bad scrolling redraw

[Dariusz]

Hey

I can't really read any of my logs/cmake build etc in qt creator. When I scroll the view, the text just "sticks" and not refresh properly. Its as if the update policy was set to item only but the item area to refresh was lagging behind or something.

Is there a way to somehow force qtcreator to redraw all or something? I can scroll any of logs/output log/compile log/etc/etc. Its all just a mush.

The same issue is in a text editor. Cant edit code & scroll. Text just sticks and never updated.

Host win10x64
2990wx 128gb ram/3090 rtx.
Gues Centos 9
vmware player.

Regards
Dariusz

Any fix in this? In the newer version it is even worse.

This looks similar to what https://forum.qt.io/topic/141297/exception-about-qt-creator-ui-on-ubuntu experienced.

Also on VMware.

I assume it has something to do with the graphics drivers. At https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-6.4-released we can see the topic:

QQuickWidget with full RHI support

With QQuickWidget you can build application user interfaces where Qt Quick and Qt Widget elements coexist. Until now this required using OpenGL. For Qt 6.4 we redesigned the class from the ground up, and now QQuickWidget is functional with all supported graphics APIs: Metal, Vulkan, Direct3D 11, in addition to OpenGL.

Can you post the Graphics configuration of your VMware player? Aso a bug report at https://bugreports.qt.io/ wouldn't hurt either.
