No BOLD in Sigil 0.9.10 / Mojave

boblindeman · 12-21-2018, 12:34 PM

Hi Since yesterday I have MOJAVE on my Mac and updated Sigil to latest version.
However, I cannot see BOLD in the headings I used.

Does anybody have an idea what could be the issue?

THANKS
Bob

The issue is apparently fixed in Qt 5.7 and 5.12, but I'm not certain where we left it RE our plan to use Qt5.11.1 in Sigil's next release. I thought there was a conversation about backporting the fix to Qt5.11 but I can't find it, and can't remember the outcome (if there was decision). Perhaps Kevin remembers.

The short answer is "Yeah, we know. Hope to have it fixed/worked-around in Sigil's next release."

Actually, I found the conversation. Kevin DID backport the fix to Sigil's Qt version, and it WILL make it into Sigil's next release.

FWIW, I have already added that patch to my own 5.11.1 build for a MacOSX. If we decide to change the version of Qt again, then I will need to re add it.

Understood. Though I figure when we do change the Qt version again (and believe me, I'm not suggesting we go down that particular path again for a bit

), we'll likely move to Qt5.12.x. Which I believe doesn't need to be patched for this, right?

Yes according to the Qt bglist website.
