Hi, Mauricio,
thanks for your valuable tips.
Only one plus question : i see 2 minigui versions live parallel.
Which version do you prefer ?
I do not know really, what is the different of them.
TIA Lajos

Hi.
I have never used HMG3.
I started with HMG4 because I am interested in QT, HMG3 does not use QT.
I have lots of code in console mode and want to convert them to GUI in a slow-motion.
I also have a bunch of GUI code in FiveWin but I think that Linux is a long term road-map and QT is multiplataform, very high-level and have a huge framework, so, in my vision, QT is the future for GUI in Harbour.
And I suspect most people here share this vision about QT.
But, ( always have a but
) after playing around with HMG4 for some time I am getting disappointed with some concepts it adopts, specially those related with inheritance and OOP, and I am looking for options, even using QT directly...
Please, no offence to anyone here, HMG4 is great !!!
Another question is xHarbour x Harbour... Seems to me that the X fork is falling down and I am moving to Harbour, but this task is very easy if you do not use xHarbour.com´s closed libs.

Hi,
Yes. QT is nice. That's why HMG4 is based on QT. It is really a paradigm shift and a right decision taken at the right time by Roberto.
But, ( always have a but

No problem. If you can list out the concepts you are disappointed with, we can see that whether it is possible to have both your suggestions and HMG3 compatibility.
