    I am attempting to show a colour dialog to select a font colour. When I invoke a dialog on linux with the following:
    QColor pickedColour = QColorDialog::getColor();
    it shows a blank dialog. This only occurs under linux... when I run the same code on a windows box, the dialog shows the colour wheel correctly. I have also run it on OSX and it works there as well.

    Has anyone run into this before?

      I have solved this by passing the QColorDialog::Don'tUseNativeDialog flag.
