Thanks for your wonderful reply! However it seems a bit of work. Nothing fancy:but if I have to spend some time patching and testing, I'm rather doing it for the latest version (0.9.x) I keep your mail close, in the meaning that if 0.9.x refuses to work, I'll fallback on 0.8.5 with your suggestions. But if anyone has suggestions on the qt stuff, before b0rking my laptop, I'd be happy. m.
