Vista Style/docked: 46eb7d6b70416d99fddcb5a3d59c478da6b36bea (qtbase/5.10, 11.10.2017, 510.0) e70230405dce5ac03817fc564a3a8ba5f208422a (qt/qtbase/wip/qt6)
Description
We create QDockWidgets and then use their toggleViewAction to populate a menu. For the menu, we want to include ampersands in the action text for the keyboard shortcuts. So we set the ampersands in the windowTitle of the QDockWidget. On OSX and Linux this works fine and the windowTitle ignores the ampersand when it is drawn onscreen. But on Windows the ampersands show up in the window title.
Might be related to QTBUG-12547 but I couldn't find anything closer in the bug tracker and that was closed years ago.
Attached is a Qt Creator project with the 20 or so lines of code needed to reproduce and some screenshots showing the & in the window title.
