    There are 10 pages (I call them tabs) in the ui. All the tabs are expected to be displayed. In the actual app that this code is derived from the original app uses a settings file which remembers the last tab used and then starts with that tab selected and in focus.
    It works as expected in Qt 6.5.0 but in Qt 6.5.1 the correct tab is selected but has become the leftmost tab in some cases. After the inital ui, all tabs are displayed when another tab is selected.
    Using Qt 6.6.0 beta, the behaviour has returned to what was expected.

    Have set up a very small package in github: https://github.com/bennyPerth/tabsTest

              @SGaist In the 'Select components' page it offers 6.5.0, 6.5.1 and 6.6.1-beta1. Those are the ones I've used for testing. It looks like the problem is resolved in 6.6. However, I don't know if 6.6 is cloned from 6.5.0 or 6.5.1 and that could affect 6.6 assuming that there is retrofitting being done.

                I meant the one from your Linux distribution, not for the installer. That said, 6.6 is from the dev branch.
