I'm not an expert on this, but I don't think you can get the Vista
style from Qt if you're not running on Vista. That's not to say it's
impossible; it certainly is, but just by using the classes Qt
provides, I don't think it's possible as the Qt Vista style is
dependent on the Vista GUI rendering engine (last I recall), which is
not available on XP.

If it is any help, try reading the Chrome source code to see how they
implement it on Windows? The GUI toolkit used is WTL, so at least it's
not as painful to read as Windows API and company.
