Custom widget plugin does not show up in editor but does in preview

i use Designer mainly for 'sketching', not for copying the code output

Your loss

That's another argument for using Designer and not avoiding it. It generates some of the code for you so that you don't have to do that yourself.

That's true, but I find it harder to use the designer generated code than code everything myself (strange isn't it . Its gives me more the idea that I know what I'm doing (I know exactly which things are done which way, and I know all the classes etc), but maybe I'm making it myself too difficult.

It's a pity that there is nobody I know who knows Qt, someone that can sit next to me, someone I can confer with.

What exactly do you find hard? Maybe we could help you?
