I haven't messed around with QtOctave much lately (does it still implement its own interpreter?), but with octavede (a GTK version of the octave gui that I have sporadically worked on) I use dockable widgets so the use can split them off or dock them together in whatever arrangement seems best to the user. I'm pretty sure QT supports the same sort of dockable widgets, and recent versions of Matlab follow a similar concept. I am waiting for the next version of Emacs-GTK which is rumored to be "embeddable" in other GTK apps. Then an Octave IDE would be complete ;)Hello, El Miércoles, 26 de Septiembre de 2007, Jordi Gutiérrez Hermoso escribió:Should QtOctave follow the same design principles like a single workspace with non-overlapping windows and mostly useless information in them, or open many small independent subwindows for each new functionality requested?I think that QtOctave's author plans to add a lot of flexibility about how the windows should be on screen. It seems that he plans to support both MDI and SDI. This is a short slideshow where he shows what he plans:http://qtoctave.files.wordpress.com/2007/06/presentacion_windows_layout.pdfThe problem is that in my case whan I try to use the 'Window' command I got the following error:ASSERT: "widget->testAttribute(Qt::WA_WState_Created)" in file painting/qbackingstore.cpp, line 636Javier
