Bemoit:

I had the same problem with a QT4 project, and your new release fixed 
it.  Thanks!

However, another possibly related problem is that the allowed width for 
the frame label seems to have shrunk.

I have a frame title of "Configuration:" with a frame width =126

Before the change the title displayed properly.
After the change it is displayed as "Configurat..."

Any easy fix other than changing all my frame widths to fit the titles?

Thanks!

Ed K.
