Graphics View Framework

http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/graphicsview.html

Was this considered for LC3?
Does Cairo replace it?

Dankjewel!

Are you considering options other than Qt for the UI?

we talked (only talks, no code) about the possibility to use html5 for UI. In other words, it would be a web based 2D drawing/CAD.

It's doable, but a project too big for our available development time.

I'm enjoying working with Qt. The documentation and Qt Creator are both excellent.

Some part of my mind is against C++ to javascript conversion.
I would start from scratch with paper.js, if I really wanted to make a web CAD.

What do you think about these?

we have been talking about a web based app by the same c++ code base, optional with Qt as well, based on "source-to-source" compiling.

This approach allows the idea of the same CAD engine in C++ used by different drawing engines:

Qt: as in V2;
cairo: headless example in V3;
HTML5 canvas: PoC needed.

Two more projects worth noting for a web based version:
