Re: QT4 GUI runtime error

[Carlos Velazquez]

I was referring to the QT4 runtime error. I was hoping 3 years may have 
provided a solution since those QT blocks are so basic (frequency sink, 
waterfall). 

I’m hesitant to switch to 3.8 since I don’t know if my OOT items will work, 
took me forever to get working, and my project is due in one week. But I’ll try 
on a VM tonight and see. 

Thanks for your help!
