Just go ahead and ask your questions here. Then we can hopefully find the right person to answer them. Cheers Lydia

However, since Joao and the student are both new to KDE, I would like to ask another experienced KDE mentor to step up to co-mentor this task. If you are not already invited to the webapp, please send me your google-connected account, and sub to KDE-Soc-Mentor ML. We always like to have co-mentors for GSoC, but I think it is mandatory for this proposal. Thanks. Valorie
Re: KConfig - setStandardButtons() breaks Help button?
On Samstag, 5.

So I add this line: dialog->setStandardButtons(QDialogButtonBox::Ok | QDialogButtonBox::Cancel | QDialogButtonBox::Help); but then the Help button does not open the Help browser anymore. ::setStandardButtons simply forwards the call to the internal button box which nukes all button objects (incl. their slot connections) and recreates them w/ the new item list. The most straight forward solution is likely to hide or delete button(QDialogButtonBox::RestoreDefaults) Otherwise you'll have to grep through to the buttonbox and remove it "correctly" or rebind the help button to the showHelp() slot. It though looks like you'd destroy more bindings by resetting the standardButtons (which you all need to restore) I'm not sure the HIG team would like to remove the defaults button, though. :-P Rather replace the restore defaults button, resp. re-link it to your own calculation slot.
