Known Issues in Qt Design Studio 4.2
------------------------------------

- Wizards that do not open files trigger error messages (GridView wizards):
  QDS-241 - Wizards show an error message if no file is defined as the file to open.
- If using WebGL streaming (-platform webgl), then
  'QMLSCENE_CORE_PROFILE: "true"' has to be removed from .qmlproject.
- Qt 6 does not support WebGL streaming. If you want to use WebGL streaming choose a Qt 5 kit.
- Components like Arc require refreshing Form Editor if the size is changed.
- Effects are not rendered in Form Editor unless they are dragged into a component.
- Effects not supported with Qt 6: Blend, InnerShadow, and all blur effects
  besides FastBlur (GaussianBlur, MaskedBlur, RecursiveBlur, DirectionalBlur,
  RadialBlur, ZoomBlur).
- Effect properties cannot be directly animated. You can  work around this limitation
  by moving the effect into a separate component and binding to a new property defined
  in the root element of the component.
- The Iso Icon is not supported with Qt 6.
