Hi,

do you use the QTDesginer built-in the QTCreator to make the GUI of your applications?

I find it uncomfortable and with several bugs (ok, maybe they're features...).
For simple GUIs I prefer write the code by hand, but for larger one it could be a little tricky.

What do you do?

I never write code, unless it does not work otherwise, or if I definitely do not want to rely on a ui file (for widgets for example).

However If I use QtCreator I prefer not to use the build in Designer because its window is much much much to small and the Dockwindows are not movable.

Thanks for the quick answer!
But now I change a little the question: what development tool do you use?

Are there tools better than QTCreator?

I use Windows (I rely on win32 dlls for several hardware) and there I can only use the Compiler from Microsoft, because mingw does not support phonon.
Therefore I use (without an option to use something else) Visual Studio. And I must say that it is a great tool. It has a fantastic debugger, a fast compiler and nice project management (filters).

If I work with students and do some demonstration stuff I use QtCreator.
