    I can't find a Graphics View icon in the Library / Items panel. I'd like to draw some graphics. Is this feature disabled in the evaluation license version?

      It should be in "Display Widgets" section of the Designer.

        "Display Widgets"? I don't see any such thing!

        What corner or panel is it near or in?

          Left-hand side pane. Perhaps you are in QML designer? Then you're out of luck - GraphicsView is available in QtWidgets, not QtQuick.

            I'm using Qt Creator 2.7.2 for Qt 5.1.0

            Maybe I should be using Qt Designer instead of the Design mode in Qt Creator?

            I downloaded this thing but don't know what to do with it. And its for qt 4.8 not 5.1.

              No, Design mode in Qt Creator is actually a merged version of Qt Designer tool ;) AFAIK they work the same way.

              On top of widget chooser there is a search input - maybe you can type graphics view there and it will pop up?

                I've fixed it, got the widget designer working, but I'm not sure which of two things I did was what fixed it.

                First, on this page I saw that I need to install some the Qt Libraries. Is the GraphicsView frame in there? I installed them.

                http://qgroundcontrol.org/dev/qt_install_guide_mac

                Second, instead of running Qt Create, which still does not give me a Designer, (last time I checked, maybe now it does?) so instead I ran Designer.app which I found in...

                ~/Qt5.1.0/5.1.0/clang64/bin/Designer.app

                and there it is! I am designing widgets!

                Was it the Qt Libraries that were missing, or was Designer.app there all along but I was running Qt Creator instead? I'll see if I can acces Designer from Creator now that Qt Libraries are installed.

                    That depends very much on what you have installed :) Qt Creator is just an IDE, so you need Qt libraries too. But recent Qt Project downloads (Qt > 5.0) are actually an SDK that includes everything: Qt Creator and Qt libraries.
