thanks Pete, I think you have answered my question. I am not supposed to manage the dock window as a tree item viewer, but rather as a tree viewer, just like any other. In other words it is another view of the tree that only happens to show details of one node at a time. That way the signals and slots can be set up once.
I presume I do need an update UI function whenever the selected item changes, but that is no big deal. thanks, Danny _______________________________________________ PyQt mailing list [email protected] http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt
