Like Ville, I'm not following this in detail. However, this comment reminds me that Leo's find tab isn't fully hooked up yet. Thanks for this reminder :-) > This allows complete decoupling of the gui from the core. It does not > matter even if a gui exists or not. Leo's core and gui code must often communicate. At present, Leo's core never knows which gui it is talking to. In this sense, Leo's core is already fully "decoupled" from the gui plugins. This is what I mean when I say that Leo's core is "gui-independent". > I think this is a good model to use for this type of interface. Yes. I've lost track of how many guis I've written for Leo. As Leo has evolved, the dependencies on the gui in Leo's core have been reduced to an absolute minimum. At present, the only gui-specific code in Leo's code is code to put up emergency dialogs that inform the user that the gui plugin can't be loaded, or that the proper version of Python can't be found. > I have attempted to hook this into the leo core, but I am having a > little trouble sorting it out at the moment.

The text widgets in the find pane are not known to Leo's core. The interface is a bit tricky, but I'll deal with that. > If you think this approach is worthwhile I will finish it off and also > do a spell check panel. It would be quite helpful if you used QDesigner to put the standard Spell-tab widgets into the Spell tab. Don't worry about how to hook up those widgets. That's my job. > I have abandoned my tree efforts A wise decision. The tree widget code in the qt plugin is well beyond the demo stage. The last code will be a significant optimization, as discussed in another thread.
