Hi Rohit!That's quite awesome of you, thank you :) That's giving you an excellent headstart. So, yeah: you probably can see what kind of things are a bit "suboptimal" in current qt-gui. You already fixed two :)
The tasks outlined in the project idea are typically a bit broader; so, as Andrej wrote down in that task, you will need to improve, extend or completely write from scratch some of the C++ in gr-qtgui.
I think we can characterize the things listed there into the three categories:
- Adding new widgets - Improving on existing widgets - Integration in to QT CreatorWhich one of these three would you like to talk about? And if so, what are your ideas / opinions on these tasks?

Thank you for creating such an informative guide (wiki). I read it all, and it certainly helped me understand gnu radio better. In addition, I went through the source code and resolved 2-3 QT-related bugs in the gnu-radio repository and opened a pull request for the same. I was hoping to discuss more on the "Qt widgets improvement " project more to get a better understandingOn Fri, 13 Jan 2023 at 15:32, Marcus Müller <mmuel...@gnuradio.org <mailto:mmuel...@gnuradio.org>> wrote:Hi Rohit, please keep the mailing list in CC when replying. Yes, we have a chat server. The ways to find that are both linked in the wiki I've referred you to, and on the https://gnuradio.org <https://gnuradio.org> website. I outlined a beginner task - read all the tutorials and work with Qt GUI to get an understanding of your own on what you feel is missing, or could be improved.
