you mean replace the standard settings dialog with your KInputDialog? if so, that is purposefully not possible. otherwise every single applet would have their own funky way of configuring and there would be zero opportunity to manage configuration for different target form factors centrally. if you mean that you want to allow the user to bring up a dialog by clicking on some area (e.g. a pushbutton) on your widget, this is *highly* discouraged. dialogs may not be suitable for the platform in question, for instance. what you can do, much more cleanly, is add your configuration UI to the standard config dialog and then if the setting is not made, call setConfigurationRequired(true) (or the equivalent in Python) -- Aaron J.
