OK, Marco answered my interrogations: this class derivation is to make shape resize possible (apparently not handled directly in Qt).

I was thinking of user manual of course! I fully agree with you: I usually find quick answers in FAQs, but fall asleep with novel-like manuals... This is why I started to keep notes of the tricks I did not guessed directly... in userbase! This is just a crude beginning, my goal was to go through recent forum entries & tutorials, to extract more Q&A to fill the sections... So every time any of you wonders how to do something, userbase could be a place to keep an ordered trace (and eventually find answer)? > > Simon > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow! > The most comprehensive online learning library for Microsoft developers > is just $99.99!
