Realoading modified ui.h file in QT designer
Message 1 in thread
Hi,
suddenly I got the message "file was modified outside qt designer, do you
want to reload it" if I made some changes after I opened it in MSVC. That's
the behavior I LIKE, so one can really do its work inside MSVC and than just
approve the reload in QT designer. BUT after I rebooted my machine this
behavior is gone !! Is there any switch or any scenario where this does not
work (designer opened before msvc or whatever ?)

Same behaviour here, it worked the first time with my project
but after that never ever again. I did not find anything in the
preferences to change it to the original recognition behaviour
again. I checked both starting QT designer before and directly from
VStudio. I made so many changes to the project (even manually editing
the project file for renaming reasons) that I can't really say what
could be causing this.

I have no cursor related problems when editing, tried several things,
even moving around with the scroll bar.
I also found out that since I newly added a file the change dialog
warning seems to work again, at least if I have first changed the
extra added file and after that the ui.h file.

I use the QT 3.0.2 version, MSVC 6.0, and except designer crashing
sometimes I encountered no further difficulties.
