Hi there, just downloaded the .deb for QLC+ 4.11.1 and was eager to try out the "detach a panel" feature.

Opened a new workspace, double-clicked on the bottom tab for "Simple Desk"... and nothing happened. I was expecting a new window to open with the Simple Desk detached.

Tried it again with an old workspace... still nothing.

Am I missing something, or does this feature just not work on Linux?

On Ubuntu 17.04 this feature works. What QLC+ version you are using, the Qt4 or Qt5 version?. I'm using now QLC+ 4.11.2 Qt5 from GIT.

I have just noticed the same. (Not needed to use it before)

I have Mint 18.3 / Cinnamon (which is Ubuntu 16.04 base), QLC 4.11.1 Qt5

I tested it yesterday with an Ubuntu 16.04 and it really does not work. I suspect it may be a problem with the Qt5 version of Ubuntu 16.04.
On Ubuntu 16.04 Qt5 version is 5.5.1 on Ubuntu 17.04 is 5.7.1. I have not tried compiling QLC+ on Ubuntu 16.04 with a more newer version of Qt5.

Ubuntu 17.10, QLC+ 4.11.1 (downloaded the .deb, didn't build from source), and it seems to be linked against QT4.

Code: Select all

	libQtGui.so.4 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQtGui.so.4 (0x00007fc2054fd000)
	libQtCore.so.4 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQtCore.so.4 (0x00007fc20500b000)
	libQtScript.so.4 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQtScript.so.4 (0x00007fc2038ac000)
	libQtNetwork.so.4 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQtNetwork.so.4 (0x00007fc202fe2000)

I just tried downloading 4.11.1 / QT5 from the SUSE OBS repo, and the detachable tabs work fine in that version. Go figure.
