http://www.kdab.com/wp-content/uploads/stories/photon_migration.mp4 The Photon to Qt migration framework helps you control the complexity and cost of the migration project. The framework consists of the following parts: a partial implementation of the Photon API in Qt, covering the most important use cases a library of Qt widgets as slot-in replacements for Photon widgets that do not exist […]
by KDAB’s Marc Mutz at Meeting C++ 2014 Abstract: C++11 is now widely available, and so is C++14. Like for users of the language, C++11/14 is a new language for C++ library writers, too. In this talk, we will walk you through the new C++ features that impact class design. We will show guidelines that […]

Continuing our blog post series about the rewrite of Qt3D. Introduction For quite some time now, you’ve been hearing about Qt3D’s Framegraph. Although a brief definition of what the Framegraph is was given in the previous articles, this blog post will cover it in more detail. After reading this post, you will understand the difference […]
Last week I visited a new customer who is making medical and industrial devices which have one thing in common: image and video capturing, and letting the user save these files onto a USB key. These devices run embedded Linux and the application is done in Qt (and gstreamer for the video capture). The new […]
So far we talked about the technical aspects of scaling your application, the dpi, the number of pixels, its nature, the nature of image formats and the implications of all that on the creation of visual elements for your UI. But this is only a part of the problem, for although all this helps you to create answers […]

Continuing our blog post series about the rewrite of Qt3D. One of the biggest driving factors behind the design of Qt3D 2.0 is the ability to configure the renderer in order to accommodate custom rendering techniques. In this blog post I will explain how to render a scene in Qt3D with shadows.
An Example of Rendering with Qt3D In the previous article we learned about the requirements and high-level architecture of Qt3D 2.0. In order to put some of this into context and to give you a concrete example of how it looks to draw something in Qt3D using the QML API, we will now briefly show […]
