I've got the same problem, but I'm surprised, that it's no answer here.. It must be easy for experienced users here

Added after 5 minutes:

Anyway, I'm going to write why I cannot solve this problem. I tried to follow instructions and I opened Qt command prompt, wrote qmake qwt.pro
It was right, without any problems, but when I had written instruction "make" it appeared error: make' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I have installed MINGW. It still doesn't work.

Hi,

This is what I did :


download qwt sources
open .pro file with QtCreator
build QWT. You have to leave 1 of the examples out because it doesn't link (don't remember which)

To see the wqt widgets in Qt Designer and easily integrate it in your projects :


copy the files of your_qwt_dir\designer\plugins\designer to your_qtcreator_Dir\bin\designer
in your_qt_dir\include make a directory 'qwt' and add all the include files to it
copy your_qwt_dir\qwt\qwt.lib to your_qt_dir\lib


Add the following to the .pro file of your project that uses qwt :
INCLUDEPATH += $(QTDIR)\include\qwt
LIBS += -lqwt
