You can always create widgets from C++ by adding canvas elements through the property tree, but I think a fully scripted GUI is the most flexible and powerfull approach. Do you have any usecase where you wan't to create a widget in C++? > Hmm, I wonder if having a C++ base class for widgets in the canvas will > simplify picking and mouse-over.

If the element is a group it receives picking events from all children otherwise only its own. We should also keep in mind that the Canvas won't be used only for the GUI but also eg. for MFDs which may have a touch interface where not necessarily widgets are used...
