We are pleased to announce that we have begun work on a tool that will allow to create Qt Styles without writing any code. Temporary name for this utility - DC Studio Tool. The files developed in Adobe XD will be used as the initial template. The first version of DC Studio Tool will be used as Adobe XD file viewer with the ability to export the data into a special file format (XML/FastInfoset) for later loading into the Qt application. We are planning to implement viewer with support for all basic Adobe XD shapes including complex objects - mask, picture, gradients, compound shapes, repeated grid, text, components, component's states and etc.

The idea is very simple, the style is drawn in Adobe XD (following certain rules for document structure), then it can be used in Qt. Our DC Studio Tool will be used as an intermediate step between Adobe XD and Qt. In the future, perhaps it will be possible to use DC Studio Tool to develop a style without Adobe XD at all and use it as an alternative to Adobe XD. Development is already underway and we already have basic capabilities for viewing Adobe XD files.

Below are a few screenshots showing the same file document in Adobe XD and DC Studio Tool:

We are pleased to announce that our development plan for the near future has been published. You can familiarize yourself with it at this link - Roadmap Development 2023. We will be happy to answer your questions and comments.

We are pleased to announce the release of regular component update for Qt framework, which contains a number of improvements.

QtitanDataGrid 7.5.0 - improved drag drop mechanism, added the ability to change the drag-drop pixmap. Fixed bug with dragging to an empty grid area. Improved code for working with focused row, now you can remove focus from the row completely by turning off the GridViewOptions::setKeepFocusedRow(bool keep) option.
Added the ability to set tooltips for the filter button by column and the quick column customization menu.

QtitanRibbon 6.4.0 - Significant refactoring for ribbon galleries - added wheel scroll support, added transparent scrollbars, selecting and highlighting the gallery items has become more logical. The version became possible to set different sizes of gallery items if they are shared the same RibbonGalleryGroup.
Improvements in how the ribbon bar is reduced when top-level window is resizing. More accurate handling the RibbonControlSizeDefinition object for ribbon control. It is now possible for a ribbon group to set the exact size modes it can accept via RibbonGroup::setSizeDefinition(RibbonControlSizeDefinition::GroupSizes) method.
Added ability to set icon color for assets via QIcon SegoeMDL2Font::icon(ushort code, const QColor& color = QColor()).

QtitanDocking 4.5.0 - Fixed mouse positioning error when dragging across multiple screens. FIxed VisualStudio Style rendering issues.

Also corrected the bugs faced by our end-users and were registered.

We are pleased to announce the release of the QtitanDocking component - 4.4.0. In this version, we have added the ability to customize the set of actions for DockToolBars via Popup Menu, similar to how it is done in MS Visual Studio. See screenshot below. In addition, in the new version we have fixed bugs in working the layout of the dock panels if the minimum-maximum limits are specified. Fixed a bug with storing proportions in a split-container when resizing. Fixed other style rendering bugs.

We are pleased to announce the release of the next update for the QtitanDataGrid component - 7.4.0. In this version, we have implemented a new cell editor for QColor type. On the basis of this editor, it is very convenient to add the palette customization or other data customization that requires a color field to be entered. In the current version, we have done work to speed up grid painting. We was able to get rid of several cycles in paint procedure, which positively affected the smoothness of the rendering. Also in this version, we have added a new example that demonstrates the ability to create custom cell editor for any QWidget or types.
