You only need one or the other. Actually, since Qt has such nice layout widget, you don't really need either. My recommendation is QtArchitect, but since QtDesigner comes with Qt, you can try that out as well. Since there is no port for the latest QtArchitect, I would grab the latest version and build it yourself (http://qtarch.sourceforge.net/). p.s. If you wish to make a port for QtArchitect, let me know *offlist* and I can help you out. > appart from that, do you know of any other gui toolkits with IDE and > widget drag n' drop designers available for freebsd? If you want to do KDE programming, look at KDevelop. You can use it for any C/C++ programming, and the gui layout tool works for either KDE or pure Qt. But you may want to learn how to do it the "unix way": different tools for different jobs. I use XEmacs for all my editing, xterm for running make, and QtArchitect for widget layout (if I don't do it by hand).
