Hi Thomas, you could try the latest svn revision of plplot and see if this problems remains, since there were a lot changes the last weeks regarding the configuring of the qt driver (see here for instructions: http://www.miscdebris.net/plplot_wiki/index.php?title=Subversion_access ). Alternatively you can download one of the "weekly snapshots" here http://www.miscdebris.net/plplot_weeklies/ - the latest snapshot is from last Monday, so quite a recent one.
If this doesn't solve your problems, please send us the full output of cmake and also the output of nmake (invoke with "nmake VERBOSE=1") in order to get more information about the build. AFAIK we never tested the qt driver with Visual Studio, only with MinGW on Windows. In addition you could try to turn off the dynamic drivers with the cmake option -DENABLY_DYNDRIVERS=OFF - all drivers are then linked into the plplot library (which may still be a dll).
