CMake Fluid error when trying to build on Ubuntu 16.04

[ture-flase]

I have no answer to this. Maybe you can test and compile the latest master branch (cool stuff and not many bugs. Soon stable release) and see if you have better luck with it than with 1.1.3?

Thank you for all your help. I was able to compile the master branch at the latest rc2 release. So it looks like whatever changes were made in CMake did not make their way to v1.1.3. Kind of a shame, but whatever. Unfortunately, even with the "-DWANT_QT5=ON" flag, the GUI is still extremely tiny (unusable) on my 4k display. Do you know if there's any way to confirm I am using QT5 for LMMS since I also have QT4 installed? The only output from the compilation process with "qt" in it was from make:

Code: Select all

[ 89%] Building CXX object plugins/zynaddsubfx/CMakeFiles/ZynAddSubFxCore.dir/zynaddsubfx/src/Misc/QtXmlWrapper.cpp.o

Thanks again.

There just is a point when you need to let go of the older stuff. Otherwise we would be more or less just maintaining 1.1.3.

Yes. The top of Menu -> Help -> About has a string about qt version.

You should get the same information with:

Code: Select all

lmms --version

Yeah, I get that. Especially since this project isn't like a backend library, that's fine.

Thanks. Looks like it is using Qt 5.5, and the UI is slightly better than it was with v1.1.3 that I had previously tried from the Ubuntu apt repository, but the scaling for the vast majority of the application is still far too tiny to do any work with it . So I don't know what to do. I'd really like to use this, but it looks like not as much GUI scaling came "free" with Qt 5 as promised .
