| − | ==Qt Designer requirements==
| |
| − | In order to have the CTK and MRML widgets in Qt Designer, Qt Designer offers 2 options. The first (not detailed here) is to copy (or symlink) the CTK and MRML plugin libraries into <i>%QT_DIR%/plugins/designer</i>, the second is to set the environment variable <code>QT_PLUGIN_PATH</code> to the directory <i>Slicer3-build/bin</i> containing the subdirectory <i>designer</i> with the plugin libraries.<br>
| |
| − | '''Note:''' Qt requires that the directory containing the designer plugins is named "designer".<br>
| |
| − | Moreover, Qt Designer can only load plugins that have been compiled in the same build mode than Qt Designer. For example, if Qt is built in Debug mode, the plugins must also be built in Debug mode to be loaded by Qt Designer.<br>
| |
| − | '''Note:''' If Qt is configured to build in both debug and release modes, Qt Designer is built in release mode only. If that case, it is necessary to ensure that plugins are also built in release mode.

| − | ==Running Qt Designer with the correct environment variables==
| |
| − | *Compile Slicer in the same build mode than Qt. If Qt is in Debug mode, compile Slicer in Debug mode, if it's in Release or Debug&Release mode, compile Slicer in Release mode.
| |
| − | *run Qt Designer by executing the python script <i>Designer.py</i> located in <i>Slicer3-build</i>.
| |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | cd Slicer3-build;
| |
| − | python Designer.py
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | '''Note:''' For MS Visual Studio users, there is a <i>Designer</i> python script for each build mode. Execute the script according to the build mode.
| |
| − | '''Note:''' <i>Designer.py</i> can take a <i>.ui</i> file as an argument, it will load it into Qt designer.
