well i think you might need to use the os specific function for parenting, otherwise we would have used the Qt method. if there is a Qt method for parenting then i might handle the platform for us and make the code work on both operating systems. but i think you will need to use the os specific function call, which i linked to in the email.
you are correct about the plugin's design, use cpp to setup the application and a dummy widget that you return to scripting. all subsequent widgets are parented to (in python) using the return value. s On Fri, Jan 18, 2013 at 5:12 PM, ran sariel <ran.sar...@gmail.com> wrote: > so you're creating the app on the plugin, and create a "dummy widget" > (sianchor) , as a child of xsi main window. > and from there on any widget you create is parented under siacnchor. > I believe the return of getApplicationWindowHandle on linux is an x window, > there should be a way in qt to parent a widget to x window, - never used > it though, Will take a look on Monday, and see if I can make any progress > there. >
