While I'm sure Mark meant in no way to narrow the

looked at it yesterday for the first time semi seriously. It's clearly
headed for more than being just a 'loop player'...
I have a slightly older version {0.1.1} that is among the repo pkg's on
my distro of beloved choice. (Sorry Rui...I'm not in my bedroom and I
used more than one track!!! Did I violate the RPL?? {Rui - Pulic -

sure you didn't ;)
the "techno-boy bedroom studio" motto has been just qtractor's middle
name since it was first and officially presented on lac2007@TU-Berlin--i
just still keep repeating that tagging ad-nauseum, sorry me :)
besides that anecdotal aspect, you can have it whenever and wherever you
see fit. imho it's quite generic for prototyping most western pop music
projects. whatever :)
Veering off topic as I so fondly do, I'm running
Fluxbox 1.0 and when I
run Qtractor, obviously it wraps in QT 3.3 in this case. The main
what? qtractor is a qt4 application. strange that you found it wraps in
qt3.3. i gues you're referring to the window frame theme or style? is it?
windows function fine but child windows such as the
"mixer" window, come
up at a default size and cannot be re-sized other than to be maximized
or minimized. I'm 99.9% certain it's a Fluxbox issue (and I have put a
LOT of time into this in the last 10 days do to not having a job for he
first time in forever), but wonder if anyone has the Fluxbox magic sauce
on this....OR, is there QT3.3 magik I can apply.
maybe, who knows, try switching this misterious option off and restart:
View/Options.../Display/Keep tool windows always on top.
I'm largly doing this because there is a {yet
another} audio based
derivitive of my favorite distro out there and before I point the masses
to it, I 1st, want blessings of the creator, and 2...it's not ready for
prime time! But I CAN tell you, it smells REAL good!! It runs KDE by
default and KDE is getting to be a bit more like that *other* OS that
swallows resources n cycles like a pig eating slops, so I'm adding the
pazzaz suace to fluxbox with custom menus, purty wallpapers and running
Wbar with all the cool apps on it. More on that soon...
fwiw, i do use kde and it *never* gave me a headache as all other
de/wm's do, redmond and cupertino flavors included:)) but that's me. mho.
cheers
