6. Qt Integration

LAMMPS-GUI makes extensive use of Qt features:

Signals and Slots

Used for inter-component communication, especially between GUI components and background threads.

Qt Designer Forms

Main window and dialogs use .ui files edited in Qt Designer.

Qt Resource System

Icons and resources embedded via resources/lammpsgui.qrc.

Qt Models

Used for data display in various viewers and inspectors.
