Michael Goffioul, can you make it work????

I've tried on my classdef branch, but it appears it doesn't work. Though I could have sworn I've seen it working before with FLTK.

 

I found a report that said it was broken in 3.6.4 and default.

I  also asked on IRC and was told that it did not work on 3.6.4 and default.

 

Please help, we need this to work.

Am I doing something wrong?

I don't think so.

If you have the time, you could give QtHandles a try. This should give you a better idea of what you can do with uiXXX functions.

How do I try qtHandles???

If you want to try it, it's probably better to use octave from default branch. You then download from [1], compile and install it with the simple install.sh script provided (it assumes octave is in your PATH). You enable it with "graphics_toolkit qt". You can run it from the GUI, but if you want to run it from command-line mode, you need to use the octave-qt wrapper provided (it creates the requires QApplication object to run a Qt app).

Note that I didn't try to compile it recently, so it also very likely it won't compile out of the box. I'll give it a try later today and fix compilation if it doesn't work anymore.

I just tried to compile it and it's still working fine. I've updated the README file with relevant information.
