QT Creator Chrome Trace Visualization(CTF)

[AmeyaVS]

Hello,

I am trying to load a Chrome Trace Events json file in Qt Creator by following the steps mentioned here.

But for some reason the Visualization Tab is being rendered completely blank.
I can see entries in the statistics tab about various function calls, but I don't see and timeline being rendered at all.

I am using the Qt Creator package available from Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

Here is the output from the console for the exact version string:

$ qtcreator -version

Qt Creator 4.11.0 based on Qt 5.12.8

........

I even tried it on another system with Fedora 34.
I can see the same behavior.

I even tried capturing various application with Lttng also and using the ctf2ctf tool for conversion to the JSON format to no avail.

Is there a prerequisite to create a project in Qt Creator to utilize the feature?

Regards,

It took sometime to figure out the missing library.
It seems the qt-creator package does not install some of the libraries.

I had to install the following library package using the package manager to get the functionality working:

qml-module-qtquick-controls2

It would bet great if the qtcreator GUI itself reported about the missing libraries.
Instead of dumping it on the console.
