[Ktechlab-devel] Canvas...

One of the unfortunate aspects of ktechlab is that we're carrying around
a large chunk of some ancient version of Qt.
(canvas.h/cpp/canvas_private.h), The reason we're doing this is that our
version of Canvas is (practically) infinite in all four quadrants,
meaning you can extend your circuit in any direction. If you simply drop
in the stock version of Canvas, you can only extend your circuit in two
directions, and if your circuit has any parts with a negative offset,
you simply can't see or work with them. =\

I know we'll hopefully be moving to KDE4 and hopefully not suffering the
enormous regression in features and performance seen by all other KDE
applications. =( But in the mean time, I'd like to know whether anyone
else has looked at this issue and whether there is a more elegant
solution for us. It would certainly go a long ways towards making the
project more maintainable.
