Hi Radek, No doubt it will be helpful! Just make sure your blog is syndicated at http://planetkde.org/ before you blog. Regarding the data types, it's hard to add it in current kexi, since kexidb is feature-frozen. Predicate is not but it's in heavy development (refactoring) and I wouldn't like to destabilize it. I am not 100% sure about the use case. If you mean adding lines, points and polygons to the map (by the user), I would recommend using some predefined XML (first define it on a wiki page). In any kexi database there's kexi__objectdata table where you can save extra data string related to any object (here: form and report). Query objects use that to store SQL statements and forms use it to store QtDesigner-like XML for UIs. -- regards / pozdrawiam, Jaroslaw Staniek http://www.linkedin.com/in/jstaniek Kexi & Calligra (kexi-project.org, identi.ca/kexi, calligra-suite.org) KDE Software Development Platform on MS Windows (windows.kde.org) _______________________________________________ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel
