Qt assistant does not use system browser to open external links
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

When trying to open an external link from the MITK F1 Documentation it will try to open it within Qt assistant and fail.

To reproduce:

Click on the doxygen link at the bottom of any page

Event Timeline

The usual way for qt to open an url externally seems to be
http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qdesktopservices.html#openUrl
but I am still looking for a way to combine that with doxygen.

See branch bug-11812-open-http-links-externally for a fix to this behaviour.

Sascha, is that fix ok with you? I'll hold off merging into the master untill it is discussed.
