    Default Designer problem

    Hi. I've got an annoying problem with qt designer. With my older 4.2.3 version, and now 4.3.2 I've got the same. When I try to open any ui file, the variables are ok, but the dialog doesn't appear. That's really embarrassing. The problem appeared after about 3 month brake using qt
    Regards

    Do you use a themed installation of Windows XP? If so, try disabling the theme and see if the problem persists.

    I think the ui expired .
    When I try to open any ui file, the variables are ok, but the dialog doesn't appear.
    What variables? Try posting the ui here, so we can test it.

    I don't think so, I have downloaded some new ui, and the problems the same. But even if, how could the ui expired???? You're working at some project, and after some time the ui expires??? Anyway, here's the link to the ui file I have tested:

    Must be your theme, try disabling the theme manager as Wysota suggested.
    The UI looks good here.

    I know, it is really weird.

    You said:

    So disable or uninstall this package.

    I'm almost 100% sure the vista skin is the problem. We recently had a similar problem in the forum and it was caused exactly by the same skin.

    No idea. Is it a MS product or provided by a 3rd party?
