    I use Designer if Designer can do what I want. But I find it extremely limited.

    If I want a combobox in a toolbar, for example, I'm out of luck. Or if I want to assign a QIcon with different states to an action, instead of a single image. Or if I want to lay-out the status-bar. Or if I want to set my own central widget.

    The code would be a lot cleaner if you could do more in Designer.
