I haven't tried this for ever. If I "configure --frontend=qt" do I have to rebuild the entire LyX tree or can I still get away with "touch frontends/*.C; make" and compile only the qt-specific bits. What is broken still in the qt frontend BTW? > that xforms screen is copying directly onto the workarea window (which > is most definitely not the event-driven way) is an xforms-specific bug - > the GUII API does not come into IMHO And why can't you apply your patch? Because at the moment the xev passed to XWorkArea::handle_cb is null and you have to redraw the entire window. So I should badger the xforms list. Consider them badgered. Angus
