    QFontDialog seems to be totally broken in Qt 5.11.1 on Mac:
    https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-69878

    I could go back to Qt 5.9 or 5.10, but then I get the rich text bug that made me go to Qt 5.11:
    https://forum.qt.io/topic/91642/qstatictext-size-bug-when-using-rich-text-and-word-wrap/

    So I am bit stuck.

    Has anyone got a workaround or patch for the QFontDialog bug?

      hi @AndyBrice,

      it seems that bug was introduced in 5.11.1, so going back to 5.11.0 might help you.

      Otherwise build Qt from source and revert the commit Liang mentioned in the bugreport.

      Qt has to stay free or it will die.

        Thanks. I can confirm that QFontDialog works ok in Qt 5.11.0 on Mac. Also the rich text issue in early version of Qt seems to work in Qt 5.11.0. Hopefully there aren't any other showstopper bugs I haven't found yet.

        I always used to build Qt from source, but that seems to be getting increasingly difficult. The last time I tried I completely failed to get it to build (can't remember if that was Windows or Mac).
