Some other painting - operations that end up in the path fallback are affected as well. The - bug causes the whole X server to repeatedly hang for several seconds at - a time. - \o There is an issue with NVIDIA's 9xxx driver series on X11 that causes a - crash in cases where there are several \l{QGLContext}s and the extended - composition modes are used (the composition modes between and including - QPainter::CompositionMode_Multiply and - QPainter::CompositionMode_Exclusion). This affects the composition mode - demo in Qt 4.5, for example. The crash does not occur in newer versions - of the drivers. - \endlist - - \section2 Windows - - \list - - \o When using version 6.14.11.6921 of the NVIDIA drivers for the GeForce - 6600 GT under Windows XP, Qt applications which use drag and drop will - display reduced size drag and drop icons when run alongside - applications that use OpenGL. This problem can be worked around by - reducing the level of graphics acceleration provided by the driver, or - by disabling hardware acceleration completely. - - \o With NVIDIA GeForce 7950 GT (driver version 6.14.11.7824), a fullscreen - QGLWidget flickers when child widgets are shown/hidden. The workaround - for this is to use \l{QWidget::}{setGeometry()} with a width/height 1 - pixel bigger than your geometry and call \l{QWidget::}{show()}. - - \o A bug in the Firebird database can cause an application to crash when - \c{fbembed.dll} is unloaded. The bug is fixed in version 2.5. - - \o On Windows 7, resizing windows is slower than on Vista/Xp. This is because - the gesture initialization process (required for native gesture support) - currently calls winId() on widgets, which causes whole widget hierarchies - to use native window handles. This slows down resizing. - - \o Compile errors with Intel C++ Compiler.\br - There seems to be a bug in the Intel compiler with respect to - over-agressive inlining of code. - The problem will manifest itself during the link phase of QtGui where - it fails with the error that it cannot find QObjectData::~QObjectData(). - See \l{http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-5145} for updates on this - bug. - Also, due to some bugs in WebKit, the QtScript and QtWebKit modules - will not compile. - See \l{http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-6297} for a - workaround for QtScript. - - \o Compile errors with Microsoft Visual C++ compiler. \br - There seems to be a bug in the Microsoft compiler when compiling with O2 - optimization level in 64 bit. - This problem will result in crashes in QAbstractItemView::viewOptions(). - See \l{http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-11445} for updates on this - bug. - - - \endlist - - \section2 Mac OS X - - \list - - \o If a sheet is opened for a given window, clicking the title bar of that - window will cause it to flash.
