Qt creator window closes whenever screen is switched off and on.

Hi All,

I am using QtCreator 3.0.1 installed from .bin file downloaded from Qt Project site. Recently I am having a strange issue: whenever I switch off the monitor and switch it back on the QtCreator window disappears. I can see in SystemActivities that the process is running but window has closed (I cannot see the icon in task manager either). When I run Creator from the konsole and the above issue occurs I see these errors printed:

“Qt Warning – invalid keysym: dead_actute”

I am not sure whether this is a Qt/QtCreator issue or an issue with the X11 or something related. I have also posted a question in Qt forum:http://qt-project.org/forums/viewthread/40129/

Details of my setup:
OpenSuse 13.1 KDE 4.11.25
QtCreator 3.0.1
Qt versions: 4.8 and 5.2
GCC: 4.8.1
Monitor: LG 27EA63 over HDMI.

Appreciate any help in this regard.

Thank you

There is bug for this issue on Qt 5: https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-40168 [bugreports.qt-project.org] . As I have commented on the issue, I solved it by using a DVI connection instead of usingHDMI connection.
