[Kde-games-devel] QGV

[Maurizio Monge]

You may want to give a look at this, that i wrote for my project, because
i had been frustrated by QGV too :)
  http://kboard.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Canvas
it does little more that using directly a QWidget+QPainter, but should be
much easer to manage complicated things, and it is very stable.
Just download it and give a look at the demo and at the docs (yes, there
are docs too :) so you'll unsterstand if it could be ok for you.
