Can't access Qt creator design mode

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:2.0.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0

This problem is with qt-creator binaries that come from opensuse repos. Installing the same binaries from Qt, everything works fine.

When you select a qml file on your project the Design button should be enabled.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new QML (Qt Quick) project or load an existing one
2. Select a qml file on the project tree

Actual Results:
3. Design button stays grayed out

Expected Results:
3. Design button is enabled (becomes clickable)

The exact same version of qt-creator is available from Qt and it works.

The same problem has been reported on Ubuntu built packages of qt-creator.

Here's a link to the Qt forum about this problem:

I installed Qt Creator 2.2 and make steps to reproduce, result: Qt Creator not answer.

Andrey Karepin, please tell us where installed Qt-Creator from? It is important because the one from QT is fine, but the one from OpenSUSE is not.
BTW, I don't think Qt-Creator 2.2 is in OpenSUSE repositories yet.
Also, what do you mean by "result: Qt Creator not answer."?

(In reply to comment #3)
I instal it from
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Release:/46/openSUSE_11.4/

>Also, what do you mean by "result: Qt Creator not answer."?
Qt Creator any more doesn't answer any actions of the user, thus processor consumption equally 0.

This bug is about the "Design" button not becoming enabled.
Please create another bug, and explain how qt-creator 2.2 becomes unresponsive.

Please assign this bug to the buildmaster of qt-creator package. He needs to follow a slightly different procedure for qt-creator 2.1 and 2.2.

Here's the solution I found at:

Hi,

Yes, it is known and we intend to fix it :) The solution we're aiming
for is to install the private headers with Qt, like we do for normal
headers. I hope we'll get this with Qt 4.8.

Meanwhile you have to compile creator against a self-compiled Qt (which
must also be the the exact same Qt version it will run with), and
specify the location of the private headers in the Qt source tree e.g.
via `qmake -r "QT_PRIVATE_HEADERS=$QTDIR/include"`

Regards

Kai
