I have to admit that I have 0 trust that I understand what Qt is going to do to widgets we give it to administer (in terms of sending update signals of unpleasant things like that).

The fact that the canvas under these tabs are handled by qt or done by hand by us seems irrelevant to us.

The Abdelrazak> BufferView knows and I would like to keep it that way. I see. I do not care that much about how things are done, anyway.

This is lame :) This highlight the fact that we lack a good model of what we are trying to do. How do we open a document several times? How do we close a view of a document without closing all views? And things like that. It may be that you worked on this recently and I missed it. JMarc
