[QLC+ 4.12] [Ubuntu] Option to switch back to old colour and font dialogs

[thomasp]

Hey Massimo,

In QLC+ 4.11.2 on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS the colour picker looked a lot like this and the font picker a lot like this. Upon upgrading to QLC+ 4.12.0 and QLC+ 4.12.1 the colour picker on my system now looks like this and the font picker looks like this. I understand some people may prefer the more modern look of the new version; however, I personally find the old colour dialog much easier to use than the new one, as I have the option to enter custom non-hexadecimal numbers as well as having to press one less button to get to the actual colour picker. Would it be possible to add a setting or an option of sort sort, even if it's within the configuration file, in the Ubuntu release of QLC+ 4.12.2 to be able to switch back to the old design of font and colour picker.

I love the ability to play animated GIFs on RGB matrices in QLC+ 4.12 so my current workflow is to design most of my show in QLC+ 4.11 as it's quicker and much more precise to use when choosing colours, save my show, uninstall QLC+ 4.11, install QLC+ 4.12, add my GIF animations and then run the actual show.

Thanks, Thomas

That change is not cause of QLC+.
It's either your DE or the installed Qt version.

I'll have a bit more of look into it then. It's just strange because on the same computer QLC+ 4.11 always has the old style and QLC+ 4.12 always has the newer style. Thanks for the pointers though.
