designer 4.5 widget preview (plastique)

Hi,

i use designer with designer.exe -style plastique (Win XP). When I what to preview a widget i can use ctrl+R (default style. which is plastique in my case) or chose a style. If I use both options with plastique I get two (slightly) different looks. In fact my apps look like the first one. Does anyone no why there is a difference? Acually i like the second one as well (but my apps wont look like this) :)

Probably the difference is that in the first case Designer uses current palette and in the second one uses QStyle::standardPalette()

yes, there must be a difference in the palette used. But the point is the "preview" is not really a preview in the second case.

The simple "Preview" command shows the widget with your current settings. The "Preview with Style" shows the widget with the "default" settings for the choosen style.
