Hi Allan<br>
<br>
If you look at the source of the ui file there is no font specified.
So you are picking up the font *QT* chooses as the default. <br>
<br>
Original csvimport ui file..<br>
<br>
<font face="Courier New, Courier, monospace"> <property
name="font"><br>
<font/><br>
</font><br>
modified using qtdesigner file...<br>
<br>
<font face="Courier New, Courier, monospace"> <property
name="font"><br>
<font><br>
<family>Arial</family><br>
</font><br>
</property></font><br>
<br>
Like you I have found fonts are not the only problems. Now if I can
just get a sane build environment ...<br>
<br>

With the font issues I found that the font was not specified in
the ui
<br>
file so defaults where applied. Those defaults caused problems.
So it
<br>
may be the defaults on your machine are more suited to your
desktop
<br>
environment than the default on other desktops. On windows, QT
uses an
<br>
internationalised font "ms shell dlg 2" which may or may not be
a good
<br>
choice. To get a consistent look and feel across desktops
requires a
<br>
consistent font.
<br>
<br>
It may not be ubuntu's fault.
<br>
<br>
If you could attach a patch that would be wonderful

Hi Chris
<br>
<br>
In my early days with the plugin, I did not specify a font for the
tablewidget, and as I then happened to be using a xbuntu machine,
The UI, in QtDesigner, showed the font as Ubuntu. It was pointed
out to me that other systems might not have that font and that I
should specify a generic font, so I have since specified DejaVu
Sans. When I started looking into your problem, I switched from
Mint to my Ubuntu system, and there the font shows as Ubuntu. So,
I'm pretty sure that it is Ubuntu that makes that change.
<br>
<br>
Your "ms shell dlg 2" font is probably the result of Windows doing
something similar.
<br>
<br>
The problem, I've found though, is not directly to do with the
font, but is caused by several layout parameters that get
changed. So, I now start on my Mint PC, get it working and
looking correct, then copy that file to my Ubuntu. The changes
I've mentioned have now been altered. When the plugin starts, as
you found, the dialog buttons have almost dropped off the window.
Also, on the Banking wizard page, the layout has expanded
horizontally and the rightmost combo boxes are getting clipped.
<br>
<br>
So, I then make the parameter changes, the buttons etc. now
reappear, but the horizontal scroll bar has gone. I then have to
do some tuning to find a happy medium. So what I now do is set
the layout parameters in the plugin initialisation, and that seems
to be satisfactory. I just hope that it helps you on Windows.
<br>
<br>
I'll send you a patch as soon as I'm happy with it.
<br>

Hi Cristian
<br>
<br>
Coming in here from a different angle. Here, I've sorted out
the
<br>
layout problem with Ubuntu-type distros, by applying some
settings in
<br>
the plugin code, instead of relying on the UI file settings.
<br>
Obviously, Ubuntu over-rides the UI settings, presumably to
make
<br>
things look nice, even if the result is a broken plugin. It
may well
<br>
be that the same happens on Windows, so my fix may help you.
<br>
<br>
I've got slightly side-tracked by some other minor tidyness
issues I
<br>
noticed, but I could send you a patch for you to try, if you
wish.
<br>
It's only concerns the layout, not the icon thing your screen
shot
<br>
showed.

<blockquote type="cite">What I can't work out is to how to
actually debug the plugin inside of
<br>
msvc2010. KMyMoney does not load the plugin at all when run
from the
<br>
build directory and when installed it loads the plugin from
the libs
<br>
directory but because there is no symbol file msvc cant step
into it.
<br>
<br>
It seems mildly insane to have to install and copy the
symbols into the
<br>
libs folder everytime I make a code change!!!
<br>
<br>
I have tried telling QT to use the build folder but it seems
to
<br>
ignore it
<br>
<br>
I have added the path to the bin folder to QT_PLUGIN_PATH I
have also
<br>
tried adding the application path by calling
<br>
QCoreApplication::addLibraryPath(QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath());
<br>
inside
<br>
the KApplication Constructor
<br>
<br>
Both methods succesfully prepend the build folder to the
plugin path but
<br>
it makes no difference. The plugins (none of them) are
loaded.
<br>
<br>
All the plugins are in the same folder as the application.
The app runs,
<br>
it just has no loaded plugins.
<br>
<br>
I also added the application path to the PATH env. No luck
whatsoever.
<br>
<br>
Without copying the plugins to the lib folder each time how
can I
<br>
debug it?
