Installation
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
To build and install:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. mkdir build
|
|
|
|
|
2. cd build
|
|
|
|
|
3. cmake ..
|
|
|
|
|
4. make
|
|
|
|
|
5. make install
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following options may be supplied to cmake:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-DQTC_QT_ONLY=true
|
|
|
|
|
Build style as a pure Qt3 style. NOTE: May also need to set QTDIR *before*
|
|
|
|
|
calling cmake.
|
|
|
|
|
This is the default as from QtCurve 1.0.0
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-DQTC_BUILD_CONFIG_MODULE=true
|
|
|
|
|
Build KDE3 config module. NOTE: This is no longer maintained.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-DQTC_DEFAULT_TO_KDE3=true
|
|
|
|
|
If the KDE_SESSION_VERSION is not set, then assume we are running
|
|
|
|
|
under KDE3. If this cmake option is not set, then KDE4 is assumed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-DQTC_STYLE_SUPPORT=true
|
|
|
|
|
Support QtCurve style files. These are stored as
|
|
|
|
|
<kde prefix>/share/apps/kstyle/themes/qtc_<stylename>.themerc
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-DQTC_ENABLE_PARENTLESS_DIALOG_FIX_SUPPORT=true
|
|
|
|
|
Enable support for the 'fixParentlessDialogs' config option. NOTE: This is
|
|
|
|
|
known to break some applications - hence is disabled by default!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Themes
|
|
|
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
|
As of v0.55, you can create QtCurve based themes. These will appear with KDE's style
|
|
|
|
|
control panel's combobox of styles. To create a new theme, select 'QtCurve' from
|
|
|
|
|
within KDE's style panel, then configure QtCurve as required. After this, in QtCurve's
|
|
|
|
|
config dialog, select 'Export theme' from the options menu button. You will then be
|
|
|
|
|
prompted to give your new 'theme' a name, and a comment. QtCurve will then create a file
|
|
|
|
|
named 'qtc_<name>.themerc (e.g. qtc_klearlooks.themerc) - this will have the following
|
|
|
|
|
format:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[Misc]
|
|
|
|
|
Name=KlearLooks
|
|
|
|
|
Comment=Clearlooks inspired style
|
|
|
|
|
[KDE]
|
|
|
|
|
WidgetStyle=qtc_klearlooks
|
|
|
|
|
[Settings]
|
|
|
|
|
animatedProgress=false
|
|
|
|
|
appearance=gradient
|
|
|
|
|
....rest of qtcurve settings...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To use this theme, either copy qtc_<name>.themerc to
|
|
|
|
|
$KDEHOME/share/apps/kstyle/themes/ (usually ~/.kde/share/apps/kstyle/themes/)
|
|
|
|
|
or copy to <kde install prefix>/share/apps/kstyle/themes/ (usually
|
|
|
|
|
/usr/share/apps/kstyle/themes/)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When KDE's style panel is restarted, your new theme should appear in the list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: As of QtCurve 1.0.0 style support has been disabled by default, and you will
|
|
|
|
|
need to explicitly enable it via QTC_STYLE_SUPPORT
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Testing
|
|
|
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
|
As of v1.2.1, QtCurve can be forced to read its settings from an alternate config
|
|
|
|
|
file via the QTCURVE_CONFIG_FILE environment variable. This is only really useful
|
|
|
|
|
for testing alternate config settings without changing the users current settings.
|
|
|
|
|
Usage:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
QTCURVE_CONFIG_FILE=~/testfile kcalc
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Creating Distribution Packages
|
|
|
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
CMake (as of v2.4.x) does not support building rpm or deb packages, and a simple
|
|
|
|
|
checkinstall will not work. CMake 2.6 should support rpm and deb packages, but until
|
|
|
|
|
then I have supplied a simple shell script to build a package with checkinstall.
|
|
|
|
|
To use this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Install QtCurve as described above
|
|
|
|
|
2. From within the 'build' folder from step 2 above, call ../common/mkpkg
|
|
|
|
|
3. Answer the checkinstall questions.
