What are your favorite qt4/qt5 applications ?

Fresh from the dev:

Interesting, thanks. An app of the Apple store has the same name. Do you know how to compile/install that ?

(edit)

need ksane.h of kdegraphics.

[qanjaro]

Damn!!!

[dicktater]

Not a favorite app. I haven't even installed it yet. But, thought it might be cute and interesting for LXQt5 graphics if it's as small as it seems (git 58kb download) and depends are already met:

[KDE|LXQT] The Native Dropbox Linux Client Debuts New Qt Interface
https://forum.manjaro.org/index.php?topic=15282.msg141041#msg141041

The new UI uses (for now) the stock Qt theme. This isn’t ugly per se, but it does look a little out of place on the Ubuntu desktop, especially compared to previous builds. Memory usage is also reportedly higher, in some cases jumping from 60MB when idle to more than 178MB. Those on low-end devices should resist the temptation to try this [experimental] build — at least until this particular bug has been addressed.

Yep, I already read it. But I'm not a dropbox user, I find it a lot too slow.

[dicktater]

I have an account but, use it very little anymore. Just thought it was interesting that Qt is getting more attention. Nice for LXQt users who do use Dropbox that they will have Qt5 version to install soon, though.
edit: seems to look nice.

How to test Qt-based dropbox on your system

1. First of all quit Dropbox either bu right clicking on the dropbox icon on the task-bar or running dropbox stop command in the Konsole
 2. Download the experiment buld from this link
 3. Extract the zip file (it would be a hidden folder)
 4. Cd to the ‘dropbox-lnx’ folder
mukt@the-mukt-online:~ > cd /home/mukt/Downloads/.dropbox-dist/dropbox-lnx.x86_64-2.11.0/

5. Then run this command:
dropbox start

You have the Qt based dropbox running on your system.

If you want to go back to old Dropbox, simple stop dropbox again, delete the downloaded and extracted folder. Then run dropbox from your menu.

dicktater and Esclapion,

There's no "registration" button in the Wiki pages and my forum name isn't accepted. May I ask you to read the attached file (.html and .wiki) and if useful put it in the Wiki?

Other souls are certainly welcome to read and criticize too.

I've downloaded it. 
I took a quick glance at the html version. Looks great! But first, I must sleep before looking more closely. Also, I'll check about account creation on the wiki. It may be locked due to the recent trolling. Maybe I can get the sysop to create an account for you and notify you by PM? I can create the page, if necessary. But, I'm sure you would like the ability to edit when you get the urge. I dunno...... we'll see..... must..... sleep...... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Dicktater, it continues HERE for Qanjaro's doc.

[qanjaro]

Converseen has been mentioned, has it?

[Lukimya]

, luckybackup (the best backup tool),

Epic. It has an rsync backend and lets you even see the flow of commands you should type if backing up on command-line.

[qanjaro]

Yes, really, it's one of those great applications like Vlc, Cantata, LyX, Gimp etc.

[Esclapion]

Both are interesting, thanks.   Does qarma works exactly as zenity ?

[qanjaro]

Haven't tried.

Yapan is more capable than Octopi Notifier at the expense of a bit more memory consumption and being based on Qt4:
