NAME

       designer-qt4 - Visual user interface designer for Qt4.

DESCRIPTION

       Qt  Designer  simplifies  the  process of designing and creating graphical user interfaces
       (GUI) using the award-winning Qt toolkit.  Qt  Designer  is  easy  to  learn.   There  are
       tutorials,  walkthrough  examples and the reference documentation accelerating you through
       the learning phase. After that, Qt Designer greatly reduces the time and effort needed  to
       develop  even  the  most  complex  dialogs  with an easy-to-use GUI and an integrated help
       system.

        Qt Designer provides a rich set of features aimed at making the creation  of  dialogs  as
       easy  and  smooth as possible without reducing the power of Qt. It offers all the strength
       of the Qt layout system with a well-designed user interface. This, combined  with  the  Qt
       Designer's  undo/redo  system makes it simple to try different arrangements of the widgets
       until the result satisfies you.

        Using Qt Designer's convenient property editor along with the dynamic Qt property  system
       it  is  easy  to  set  the initial state of your widgets. Special editors for some widgets
       (like listboxes, comboboxes, etc.) allow you to fill these widgets  with  content  without
       writing  any code.  Using the object hierarchy view, the parent-child relationship between
       the widgets of a dialog can be understood at a glance.

        Integrating dialogs into a Qt project is straightforward thanks  to  the  User  Interface
       Compiler  (UIC),  which generates C++ code from the XML dialog description on the fly. The
       programmer can easily extend the functionality of the  generated  classes  by  subclassing
       without touching generated code at all or running the risk of loosing their changes.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       QTDIR  Specifies  the  Qt  base  directory.   On  Debian  systems  this  should  be set to
              /usr/share/qt4.
