To be honest, it was/is a problem for office application. The KOffice2 idea of one UI to fit them all, was a bad idea. We saw that in sheets that had a weird tool for editing cells, then words started to get a completely different UI. And I got unhappy with braindump because the tools didn't fit so well. So in this end, a split between model and view in flake would be a good idea for office applications and krita. and would be needed for developing mobile UI. And would make it possible for me to provide the correct UI for braindump. -- Cyrille Berger Skott _______________________________________________ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel
