    I don't mean to be on your case, but are you sure about where under Linux or Ubuntu? :) I've used whereis or locate or even find, but not where.

    @Yousef-Alaa-Hussain
    If you downloaded from a browser isn't it where it puts or you told it to put downloads?

      Works on my Debian... Alternatively which also will do the job, I do in fact have a lot of custom stuff.

        So you are saying running file .../tools/designer tells you that it is an executable file, right?

        but when i launch it, i cant find the run command

        What does this mean?

        I assume you try to run it from a terminal (by typing its path), so that you can see if there is any error message.

          i mean that, whereever you finish writing any program, you should see a run command, to run your code, but i cant see any run command in qt design, unlike windows version where there is a run button to click and run your application,
          see the image, this is after opening qt designer in Ubuntu Linux
          Screenshot from 2024-08-10 13-26-49.png

          wihle this image at windows, where you can see the run button:
          Annotation 2024-08-10 133007 (1).png

          so my question is, how to run the qt designer project?

            So now you are able to run designer which you said you could not find and we were helping with, but you didn't say that?

            From your screen shot under Linux you have downloaded/installed/run Qt Designer/Creator, for widget applications, while under Windows you have Qt Design Studio, an advanced tool for producing QML applications with special assets (about which I know little, but I presume that is what you are looking for). You can see the applications look very different from each other. They are quite different things!

            If you want the same as Windows you need to download/install/run Qt Design Studio for Linux, not what you have. I was not the person who said anything about designer being the executable for that, I suspect for Design Studio it has a different name.

                I don't know I know, I have never used it. How did you get it for Windows in the first place? Did you look at https://doc.qt.io/qtdesignstudio/studio-installation.html ? Is it available in Qt Maintenance Tool?

                      Look inside your Qt installation directory. The default location of the app is ~/Qt/Tools/QtDesignStudio/bin/qtdesignstudio
