How can I put white spaces in Title of QGroundControl?

QGroundControl
1

Hi,
Is there a way that I put the white spaces in the QGroundControl? I am new to this and not sure much about QML or qmake.

I want to change title from “QGroundControl” to “Q Ground Control”.
I tried to do the change in the “qgroundcontrol.pro” at the below line, but this didn’t worked as I was expecting.
FROM: DEFINES += QGC_APPLICATION_NAME="\“QGroundControl\”"
TO: DEFINES += QGC_APPLICATION_NAME="\“Q Ground Control\”"

And the RESULT is: Q -DGround -DControl
Required Result: Q Ground Control

@DonLakeFlyer Can you please help me here?

Look at the custom build example custom.pri for how to do this

Sorry, I am new into this QT & QGroundControl, pardon me if I am doing something wrong.

I am using Qt Creator 4.10.2 – Based on Qt 5.13.2 (MSVC 2017, 32bit) and Windows 8.1 64bit.

But as far as I understand from the custom.pri file. I did the changes in the qgroundcontrol.pro file. But this didn’t worked.
Updated the value of
At Line 60 of qgroundcontrol.pro
QGC_APP_NAME = “Q Ground Control”
QGC_ORG_NAME = “QGroundControl.com”
QGC_ORG_DOMAIN = “com.qgroundcontrol”

At Line 365 of qgroundcontrol.pro
DEFINES += QGC_APPLICATION_NAME="\“Q Ground Control\”"
DEFINES += QGC_ORG_NAME="\“qgroundcontrol.com\”"
DEFINES += QGC_ORG_DOMAIN="\“com.qgroundcontrol\”"

Here is the log from my Compile Output window: --> https://file.io/74tVR4Vs

custom.pri:
DEFINES += QGC_APPLICATION_NAME='"\\\"Custom QGroundControl\\\""'

Your code:
DEFINES += QGC_APPLICATION_NAME="\“Q Ground Control\”"

As I said already do it like custom.pri does it and it will work. This doesn’t have much to do with Qt or QGC. It has to do with correct escaping of quotes in command line parameters for a makefile.

Thank you. It worked.
