I don't understand really what problems you have with this? Why do you need two different objects? Isn't it possible to do this internal to the Minibuffer-Object? Why should the core care to change between a StatusBar and a Minibuffer. What real problem do you have to make this internal to the object? You just have to define a Input object and a display object and change between them when needed. That shouldn't be that big of a problem (just show/hide calls to the objects which have the same size/position). IMO that for the core it should be just one object to not complicate the stuff to much and for the frontend it should be really easy to implement this as such. But obviously you are the qt expert (I only made such small projects as <publicity> KSendFax, KGoodStuff </publicity> which I recently ported to qt3 ;) Jug -- -._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._ Dr. Jürgen Vigna E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mitterstrich 151/A Tel/Fax: +39-0471-450260 / +39-0471-450253 I-39050 Steinegg Web: http://www.lyx.org/~jug -._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._-._
