Hi Juan,

WtDesigner should remember previously saved or opened projects. My projects are located deep within some folder structures which makes re-opening a pain.

Uli

Hi Juan,

thanks a lot for this great application! I'm on 32bit Linux here (Ubuntu 14.04) and don't want to bother you with yet another binary flavour. Perhaps you can add some build instructions to the global read me - this way any interested party can build WtDesigner on its own.

The code for a panel's title comes out like this:
myPanel->setTitle(My Title);

When it should come out like this:
myPanel->setTitle("My Title");

I created a wt design using wt designer using windows (following the tutorial). However, opening it on linux it seems to give different results. In particular, the calculator rows are no longer rows, they are all stacked. I am bit puzzled by this as it just references bootstrap 3 which should be the same under windows and linux.

in particular,

btn-group btn-group-justified
does not "justify" on Linux.

Am I missing something?

Cheers

Hi Juan
I am a WTDESIGNER newbie.
I have loaded WtDesigner, Cmake and Wt library
I watched your "first app" video but now I'm stuck
When I try to export a saved project to Cmake, it gives me an error that it can't find the WT library files.
I have checked the paths in settings under Cmake, they are OK.
Any ideas?

Hi,
I have libboost-all-dev installed on my machine (version 1.58).
I have installed WtDesigner on my machine (Ubuntu 16.04.1), but when I tried to run WtDesigner is failed complaining in needs version 1.54 installed.
How can I fix this problem?

It should be possible to install WtDesigner without giving root to the installer. The destop file could be installed in home.

This is very good application for Rapid Page Prototyping?

I have some questions.

• 1. do you still support WtDesigner?
• 2. do you include Wt 4.0 if you deciced to support this Project?

Because this is very well project and it must be using for each Wt Developers.

Thank you.

Hi Juan,

the generated ui_xx.h references Wt::WApplication in several places but does not include the WApplication header which results in a unclean include hierarchy.

The readme says to install vcredist_64.
But one vc redist doesn't content all versions (2010, 2013, 2015…).
I suggest to write down which version is implied here.

Hi,

I'd like to thank you a lot for great efforts. I suggest to convert this project (or at least create a distro) to Qt Creator plugin instead of standalone one.

If you did, it will be just like Qt Designer in Qt Creator.

BTW, using Wt in Qt Creator much easier than stupid MSVS because build and parsing speed is much much faster in Qt Creator but unfortunately currently this available under Linux & Mac OSX.

Do you maintain this project?
Wt 4.0 Has been released along time ago.

Hi Juan,

just experienced another crash during WtDesigner shutdown/exit. See the GDB log below.

wt designer shutdown crash linux 64bit.txt

Hi Juan,

I'm currently on my Ubuntu 14.04 64bit workstation at work and running the linux build. Unfortunately it crashes pretty often. Usually when I hit the refresh button because the webkit-window doesn't display anything or hitting "Apply" in the Preferences.

I will provide you with some gdb backtraces and field tests.

Uli

wt designer crash linux 64bit.txt

Hi Juan,

First of all, thanks for all your precious work on this great tool.
I am a colleague of @cls-nebadje and am about to continue our current Wt project.
For this I have built the WtDesigner on my Ubuntu-16.04 according to #3, i.e.:

• manually built & installed Wt 3.3.5-rc2
• manually built WtDesigner (tried both master and develop-uli-less-warnings branches)
  • resulting ldd bin/WtDesigner/WtDesigner: wtDesigner.ldd.txt

Unfortunately I am running into at least one recurring error which I can't seem to get rid of. It is easily reproducible:

1. start WtDesigner (opening default dummy project)
2. select wt_root
3. add a new WSlider
4. select slider
5. change slider's maximum value to 100 (or any other number >10)

I then get a JavaScript Alert:
Wt internal error; code: undefined, description: Unexpected number '3'
and the WtDesigner log shows the following verbose error message: wtDesigner.javascript.err.txt
After this trying to save the project naturally fails.
Do you have any idea what might be causing this error? Where should I be looking for the culprit? I would greatly appreciate any hints.

Cheers,
Rolf

How to change default template when open WtDesigner?

Hi @juangburgos,
Thank you so much for this project!
I'm an OS X user, I was wondering if you ever built WtDesigner on a mac, I'd love to give it a try. Do you have any advice/documentation on how to build it?

I tryied the following (from a git clone):

It seems to look for windows specific files.

thank a lot for any advice!

Hi Juan,

WtDesigner doesn't set the title in double quotes nor does it decode from UTF8 when generating the code for WGroupBox. When entering Balance the code results in

                        groupbox_balance->setTitle(Balance);

Uli

Looks like a good Tool, but i can't use it, i use Linux with KDE 5 and QT 5
My wish for the future, that Linux user can use it

may be you can add editor for WContainerWidget and WLayout for ContentAligment.
you can refer to Qt Creator Designer's items Like horizontal spacer vs...

this very useful and great job. thanks for work. i will be wathing you. :)

Instead of exposing the actual pointers to the widgets, the generated UI-class should expose them through getters. This way we can prevent some self-injuries.

class Ui_foo
{
public:
    Wt::WContainerWidget *
    wt_root()
    {
        return m_wt_root;
    }
    ...
    Wt::WText *
    text()
    {
        return m_text;
    }
    void setupUi(Wt::WContainerWidget *PageRoot)
    {
        ...
    }
    ...
private:
    Wt::WContainerWidget *m_wt_root;
    Wt::WSlider *m_slider_volume;
    Wt::WPushButton *m_button;
    Wt::WText *m_text;
...
};
