"If you know how to use your resources" - "Manage your boundaries" - "Plan your development" - "Industrialise the work to be done" etc. Yep, I'll try to remember these ;) I don't think I'll hear them enough every week or so ;) Seriously, I didn't say it was not *possible* doing desktop development using QML! I just think the whole idea of "outsourcing" your GUI logic to JavaScript is... well... just not optimal for large GUI projects, for points that I already hinted at in another post here, but which I prefer to post into more detail into a separate thread for discussion) later on this week, when I'll have time to do some more research. So what was your experience? Does your UI look unusually different than if you had used the QWidget approach? What is the performance / memory consumption like? Why did you go for QML in the first place? Do you think you saved development time (substracting your learning effort, off course)? Why do you think you could not have achieved the same results with QWidgets? And most importantly: does your UI conform to the relevant OS look and feel? Would be interesting to know. > Try to get some real information, or study more about it, before > spreading fear and dispair. I already have most of the information I need to show my point and why I still think QWidgets should not only remain intact (yes, I know, they will remain), but even be actively be developed further (by whoever). Further why I think being able to integrate QML (sic!) with QWidgets would help both worlds and why I am not totally against the idea to design some "custom widgets" with QML (in the best case without any dependency on JavaScript). But again, I'll post that in a different thread, when the heat as gone a little bit...
