      @TonyRietwyk said in Qt 5.15.5 cannot load custom designer plugin: Does the installed Designer need 64-bit dll's? Designer or Creator? (Qt Creator has an embedded version of Qt Designer) Recent releases of Qt Creator are 64-bit. You can check by clicking Help > About Qt Creator... I'm not sure about the bitness of the stand-alone Qt Designer . API-MS-WIN-CORE-SYNCH-L1-2-0.DLL seems to be causing a cyclic dependency with KERNEL32.dll. The API-MS-*.dll are usually false positives. Ignore them. I have Qt5.15.5/5.15.5/msvc2019/bin in my system path. This often causes problems... I highly recommend you don't put Qt in your PATH. You can break other apps on your PC that depend on a different version of Qt. @TonyRietwyk said in Qt 5.15.5 cannot load custom designer plugin: Turns out the problem was fixed by copying zlib1.dll into the 5.15.5\msvc2019\bin folder That should go into the folder which contains your plugin, not into your Qt folder. Again, I recommend you remove Qt from your PATH.

      Hi For the scalable part. You must use Layouts from the very start. https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/layout.html

      Usually, it's the bigger widget added that sets the overall size of the QTabWidget.

      And just to add to @mrjj, no Makefiles. These kind of files should only exist in the build folder. If you have a duplicate in the project folder, it will drive you crazy.

      In addition to what @jsulm, *.ui is XML format. If somebody is really crazy:) we can generate the XML also. But not required at all.

      I know this answer is a bit late, but one solution that comes to my mind is to separate UI from logic. Create one file (e.g. a ui.qml file) for your UI and use it in another qml file.

      After some tinkering, I've gotten the designer plugin to work the way I originally wanted. I simply commented out the 'module' directive in the 'qmldir' file: # module MyLib typeinfo plugin.qmltypes plugin MyLib ../ designersupported and added some qmake targets to automatically run 'qmlplugindump' post-build. So now my plugin directory structure looks like this: /imports |---MyLib.dll (or libMyLib.so) |---/MyLib |---|---qmldir |---|---plugin.qmltypes Now I can get the plugin to run in 'qmlscene': qmlscene -I <imports directory> <main qml file> There are only two caveats in this case. First, QML files that are to import anything from the library must first import 'MyLib 1.0' before importing anything else ('MyLib.Rectangle', 'MyLib.Circle', etc.). This is so that the plugin is loaded initially to populate the other imports. Secondly, this will produce the following message when the plugin is loaded: Module 'MyLib' does not contain a module identifier directive - it cannot be protected from external registrations. However in my case, this is not an issue and can be safely overlooked.

      Your scroll area doesn't have a layout. Remove the outermost nested vertical layout (verticalLayout_5) and use Layout in ... context menu to set the layout to your scroll area.

      Qt Designer is included in Qt sources and works only for UI files. Qt Creator (the IDE) is a separate application and a separate project. You need to install or compile it first, for example from qt.io/downloads. Once you have Qt Creator installer, you need to open the settings, add your Qt Version, then add a so called Kit (which is Qt Version + compiler bundle), and then you are ready to go. If you want to avoid all that hassle, use the Qt installer from the link above - it will install Qt, Qt Creator, and set everything up for you, completely automatically.

      Hi, While not necessarily recommended, you can use Qt's private API with the limitation that it might disappear in a future version so you're basically tied with the Qt version you build your application against. As for a solution on how to redirect everything through something else than QAbstractFileEngine, I'd recommend posting that question to the interest mailing list. You'll find there Qt's developers/maintainers. This forum is more user oriented.

      Yes, it works if I build a normal shared library an a designer plugin containing the widgets used by other plugins. The normal shared library is used to be linked to the other ones and the plugin is loaded into the designer to have the widgets available there.

      Try to load another style of Qt. QApplication a; a.setStyle(QStyleFactory::create("Fusion")); Maybe then it will be more obedient.

      It looks like it is not possible to connect a signal to a signal in the designer. You will need to do this in your code. But I would not do this in ui file! Because next time you use the designer it will be overwritten!

      Hi @White_Rabbit, and welcome to the Qt Dev Net! I don't know if there's a way to change the display format of the editor. You can ask the Qt Creator engineers directly (and request the feature to set the editor's format) at the Qt Creator Mailing List: http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator . Subscribe to the list and post there.
