Quick Tour

This section describes the Qt Simulator interface and the most important tasks that you can perform with Qt Simulator.

Qt Simulator displays a device with the application open on the screen. To interact with the application, use the mouse and keyboard. To move the device window, drag the device frame.

The Device Control dialog provides the following controls:

• Quick access buttons - Check how the application handles changes in device state, such as battery level, network mode, signal strength, and power state. Run your favorite scripts.
• Device settings - Adjust the properties of the simulated device. To filter the list, enter a setting name into the search field. Click the buttons next to the tabs to show advanced and rarely used settings.

  

• Application settings - Manage applications running on Qt Simulator.

  

• View settings - See how the application looks on different devices. Change the device to be simulated, rotate the device, or change the display resolution and size. Move the zoom slider to the left to scale the device to its real size and to the right to make each device pixel correspond to a pixel of your screen.
