Hi Hank,
>Herb Mischel has done some really neat stuff using a Python graphics library to cut pieces out of an image, adjust the image properties, and then >paste it back in. It's all part of a package that he's porting to Lianja. Here's a link to a Youtube he created:

The application is relatively big (over 100 k-lines) as most of what veteran VFP coders have developed over time. I need to handle the change very carefull:)
The application I need to move out of our dear dead-locked VFP environment is half of a painting application - with an interface more akin to paint-net than modern tablet-centric UIs - half a data-centric one. The application is also data-centric but essentially in a VFP-rushmore sense. This is definitely not a database application.
Would you feel comfortable with Lianja for the such task. I was not able to run through Herb Mischel stuff but this got me thinking. Building the whole object stuff with python/sqlite and then trying to build the interface with Lianja-python.
Since Lianja is QT-based, I could move to sheer QT via pyqt in case of functional or deployment issue. Would you feel there'd be a value using the Lianja builder tools instead of the QT support - ie QTCreator?
Thanks for the great contribution:)
Daniel
