I have reported a bug in v1.5.5-beta.8 which you can see in issue 285 from indiff's QTTabBar project. The issue is regarding the skin applicator. If you have any troubles with the skin not working, i.e. being invisible, use an earlier version of QTTabBar, specifically v1.5.5-beta.6 which I have reported it is working.
If you find any bugs, please report them to the original project, not me. If you have any suggestions, feel free to ask them or try to implement them by yourself!
