Hi JT
For some widgets it might make more sense to have the setting at time of creation, like your checkbox.
For others you might want to set them to initial values after startup or even dynamically during use.
Even for the checkbox, you might want to specifically check or un-check it when another button is pressed and the associated signal goes true or false
I am de-constructing vcpparse.py, pyvcp.py and pyvcp_widgets.py presently, to get to the exact mechanism for accessing the .xml values
The python notion of pointers is not the same as C, which requires some experimentation to arrive at the correct indexing method
The main idea, as you say, is to have optional fields, which if completed do something, but otherwise everything functions as previously.
It is an interesting exercise (to me at least
) if nothing else
regards
