Crash when opening popups on Qt 6. Site-specific.
Hi! I tried the last release 2023.12.25.
I tried to use https://typst.app (a typesetting software) with dooble. In the typst web app there is a feature that allows to open a popup window with the pdf preview. You can try it here without an account: https://typst.app/project/rq1TfsdCFEVxLol3kUC_Ii You have to click the "window" button placed on the right of "+".
When dooble attempts to open the popup it crashes.
I'm on void linux 86_64-glibc.

"qt.core.qobject.connect: QObject::connect(QObject, Unknown): invalid nullptr parameter"
https://github.com/textbrowser/dooble/blob/master/Documentation/TO-DO
"QSqlDatabase complains (connect() and nullptr) if QApplication is not present in Qt 6."
The invalid-parameter warning exists because a QApplication object does not exist before QSqlDatabase is created. This is a Qt 6-ism.
A yup. Your problem is a Qt 6 problem. :) One a warning and the second a problem. Is important to state that you're on Qt 6. Good for you that the people of Dooble are cleverer than the average chipmunk.
The signature of createWindow() changed from Qt 5 and Qt 6. The new method returns a page while the older method returns a view. Yuck. Big time headache.
Never mind about the previous comment. There are two implementations. :) One for a page and another for a view.
This is something with this (typst) site.

Functions correctly in Qt 6.5.3.
