    Hi,

    I've been stuck in this problem for a while.

    In Qt3 and Qt4, we can use qtmotif and qtmotifwidget to do motif widget integration.
    A really simple program(based on examples/itemviews/editabletreemodel) is made as an example, I put it on github, please download it from this link:
    Motif_Qt4_editabletreemodel.zip

    In Qt5, qtmotif and qtmotifwidget are deprecated, and lots of XWindow related API are removed.

    I tried to comment out all removed API in qtmotif and qtmotifwidget to get the program built using Qt5, then when I run it, found that none XEvent received from XServer at xcb level.

    Is motif widget support dropped in Qt5?
    Is there an alternative solution?

    Thanks!

      Hi
      This version says it works with Qt5
      https://github.com/staalmannen/qtmotifextension

      Rewriting it for Qt is not an option?
