    I'm really tearing my hair out here!

    How do I create a custom QStylePlugin that will force ALL QT applications to use it? I've made the switch to a QT desktop enviroment, and all the QT apps just look hideous without KDE holding them up.

    Please help! I just want to make QT look pretty and uniform!

      Well, I think you are left with compiling your own set of the shared Qt libraries containing your QStyle, creating a "global Qt configuration":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qtconfig.html and hoping for the best.

        Thanks. Compiled toxygen, threw it in QTDIR/plugins/styles, and it appears to work alright.

        Now I need to figure out how to use a global icon theme...
