    I am using qt 5.3.1 on Ubuntu 14.04.

    I followed the custom widget plugin example:

    http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qtdesigner-customwidgetplugin-example.html

    I ran the project. But I couldn't see the widget on designer. What's wrong?

      welcome to forum. How did you check on this ? Did you launching the Designer from outside qt creator?. If not try this and see how it goes.

        I tired, but same result.

        I think I should see libcustomwidgetplugin.so file in /home/jeff/Qt5.3.1/5.2/gcc/plugins/designer folder. But it doesn't exist.

        Am I right?

          Yes, it should exist there. If not copied there, just copy to folder and try. It works.

            thanks. I copied the so file to the folder. I worked.

            I wonder why the so file was not automatically created in the folder.

              It may be a issue with copy after build is in QtCreator. Need to check which step is failing.
