Public bug reported: Currently, like 99% of the apps don't work well on windowed environments in a sense that they neither set preferred/minimum/maximum sizes, or window titles etc. Currently MainView does not support those things (and it'll be hard to add since we're talking about everything a "window", so the currently best thing we can do is to wrap the MainView in a Window item.
The new templates should be something like import QtQuick 2.4 import QtQuick.Window 2.2 import Ubuntu.Components 1.3 Window { width: units.gu(70) height: units.gu(70) visible: true title: i18n.tr("My cool app's name") minimumWidth: units.gu(40) minimumHeight: units.gu(40) MainView { anchors.fill: parent applicationName: "foo.bar" AdaptivePageLayout { ... } } } This should "just work" in qmlscene based templates. In templates that are based on a main.cpp, the cpp code needs to be changed into something like: int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { QGuiApplication app(argc, argv); QQmlApplicationEngine engine; engine.load(Qurl("qrc://Main.qml")); } ** Affects: canonical-developer-experience Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Currently, like 99% of the apps don't work well on windowed environments in a sense that they neither set preferred/minimum/maximum sizes, or window titles etc. Currently MainView does not support those things (and it'll be hard to add since we're talking about everything a "window", so the currently best thing we can do is to wrap the MainView in a Window item.
