HI:

I built lazarus IDE with qt5 in order to get dark ide theme on Windows
following the tip found here: https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/ind
ex.php/topic,55550.msg435622.html#msg435622

After that, the top and bottom of the form designer became wrecked:

The top area is cut and there is a section bellow the bottom area.

What I mean is:

If I align a control to the top, only part of the control shows up.

If I align a control to the bottom, it does not touch the bottom limit
of the form.

This only happens at design time

I have attached 2 images to depict this issue

Any tips on how to solve this?

Thanks in advance!

clientrect is offsetted by tabbar.

Hi:

I tested without the dark theme and the issue seems to have something
to do with docked forms packages.

I used the qt5dll contained on this link
https://disk.yandex.ru/d/_LWZvwTJG0x7vw

Before the installation of docked forms (AnchorDocking 1.0,
AnchorDockingDsgn 1.0 and sparta_DockedFormEditor 0.0) the form editor
was fine.

I attached a print

The issue is for sure, related with sparta_docked forms:

After uninstalling it and installed the "DockedFormEditor 0.0", it´s
working fine.

The Sparta one isn't recommended anymore anyway and has even been
removed in Trunk.
