Qt has a "strange" license for a graphical toolkit, it is release under GPL/commercial license, so if you want to include your new Reporting Editior into a commercial product, you have to pay a license for it. Different thing is if you use wx or gtk, that has other, more "permissive" licenses. I (my company), for our project, has create a "Reporting Editior" based on wx, following the pySketch tool, but now has about all the code rewrite. It has some little problems with the auto-resizeable objects (text only for now), that, into the engine that should compose the page, not are displayed correctly. On the other hand has a lot of worker functions, like: - model-view framework - object-like develop, so it's simple to add new drawing objects - xml read and save - multi-page size (A4, A3, etc...) - multi-block (head, title, text [more that one], food, end) - align-resize object - infinite undo-redo - image support - multi-layer (9 layers) - text block wrap, align right/left/center vertically/horrizontally - more other... Now I haven't the mind and the time for solve the problems, but if you want to complete it, or help me to do it, I'll send you the code, so after we'll a new -open source (do you like wxWidgets license? [LGPL] )- *Visual Reporting Editior* > > Pawel > Michele -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
