Evening, chaps...
I'm running a piece of equipment from a win98SE box in a VM (trying to run it under win7 tells me to fuck off and ask the manufacturer for some new software. Hah...)
It all mostly works, but there are some buttons that would be really useful if they worked - and they don't.
In the pic, there should be some buttons with arrows, rendered where I've skilfully drawn yellow triangles. Clearly, other buttons exist and work fine.
Anyone care to guess what I need to drag in from the machine that this stuff is installed on (and works, but is spectacularly inconvenient to use).
I just copied the installed directory across, no install discs or anything crazy like that.
Also, FML.
Doesn't look like a very complicated piece of software. Is it really worth doing whatever you're doing on a legacy VM which inexplicably doesn't work properly with this mysterious program?
As for why your GUI isn't working, it was probably built using an old, old, old version of QT but fuck knows how you'd go about getting the original .ui file and the original builder for it.
It's not massively complex, but it'd be a few weeks work to replicate. The manufacturers want £2500 for a modern version, or £15K for a new machine, so it's worth some effort to keep this going (more so, as I have two of them). I may have to dig the original PC out, but it's a mad flat panel PC with German win98 on it. Pisses me off, hence the desire to run this from a VM. (it talks to the machine over a serial port, which works fine under the VM, so if I could sort this button issue, I'd be a happy chap)

I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that that's not Qt. Also, it's Qt, not QT.
