Recently I rewrote GTQTC in practice from scratch.
I implemented all GT features existing in other GTs so now it's probably
the most completed GT and for sure it's the most portable one and
it can be used without HBQT, Now I'm thinking about committing it
but because it's pure QT code then it can be compiled for platforms
were we do not have any native graphic GT, i.e. Symbian, Android, RB10,
etc. Even for MacOSX and IPhones it should give much more native
appearance then GTXWC. So I think about committing it to Harbour
contrib code instead of updating HBQT. Of course you will be able to
merge it with HBQT. I created functions you can add to HBQT as
replacement for HB_GTI_WIDGET and HB_GTI_DRAWINGAREA.
What do you think about it?

This implementation is slightly based on GTQTC created by
Pritpal Bedi - many thanks.
Now GTQTC supports nearly all GT features existing in all other GTs,
i.e.
fullscreen mode:
hb_gtInfo( HB_GTI_ISFULLSCREEN, <lFullScreen> )
automatic fullscreen switch after ALT+ENTER:
hb_gtInfo( HB_GTI_ALTENTER, <lEnable> )
maximized mode controlled by user:
hb_gtInfo( HB_GTI_MAXIMIZED, <lEnable> )
clipboard selection with SHIFT + MouseLeftButton:
hb_gtInfo( HB_GTI_SELECTCOPY, <lEnable> )
terminal window resizing:
hb_gtInfo( HB_GTI_RESIZABLE, <lCanResize> )
both resize modes
a) change number of rowas and columns:
hb_gtInfo( HB_GTI_RESIZEMODE, HB_GTI_RESIZEMODE_ROWS )
b) keep number of rows and clomuns and update font size
hb_gtInfo( HB_GTI_RESIZEMODE, HB_GTI_RESIZEMODE_FONT )
blocking ALT+F4 and [X] window buttons:
hb_gtInfo( HB_GTI_CLOSABLE, <lCanClose> )
all cursor shapes and setting cursor blink rate:
hb_gtInfo( HB_GTI_CURSORBLINKRATE, <nMilliSec> )
window positioning in screen pixels:
hb_gtInfo( HB_GTI_SETPOS_XY, <aNewPosXY> ) -> <aPrevPosXY>
mouse positioning in screen pixels:
hb_gtInfo( HB_GTI_MOUSEPOS_XY ) -> <aPosXY>
full control on font behavior with:
a) box characters shown as predefined internally pixmapos:
hb_gtinfo( HB_GTI_FONTATTRIBUTE,
hb_bitOr( HB_GTI_FONTA_DRAWBOX,
hb_gtinfo( HB_GTI_FONTATTRIBUTE ) ) )
b) forcing fixed size font metric:
hb_gtinfo( HB_GTI_FONTATTRIBUTE,
hb_bitOr( HB_GTI_FONTA_FIXMETRIC,
hb_gtinfo( HB_GTI_FONTATTRIBUTE ) ) )
c) independent character cell clearing:
hb_gtinfo( HB_GTI_FONTATTRIBUTE,
hb_bitOr( HB_GTI_FONTA_CLRBKG,
hb_gtinfo( HB_GTI_FONTATTRIBUTE ) ) )
d) displaying control characters ( ASC( x ) < 32 ) in row form:
hb_gtinfo( HB_GTI_FONTATTRIBUTE,
hb_bitOr( HB_GTI_FONTA_CTRLCHARS,
hb_gtinfo( HB_GTI_FONTATTRIBUTE ) ) )
and many others like palette settings (HB_GTI_PALETTE), displaying
pictures (HB_GTI_DISPIMAGE), keyboard modifiers (HB_GTI_KBDSHIFTS),
clipboard reading and setting (HB_GTI_CLIPBOARDDATA) or icon and
window title settings (HB_GTI_ICONFILE, HB_GTI_WINTITLE)
GTQTC also supports GFX graphic primitives (hb_gfx*()) and it operates
on new Harbour extended mouse and keyboard key codes.
The console window is shown when some user outputs appears so
it can be linked with GT GUI application been invisible by default.
It's pure QT code so now is the most portable Harbour GT driver which
can be used on platforms where we haven't native any GT so far or
current GTs like GTXWC do not have native appearance.
Because it uses only high level GUI interface then it should be quite
easy to convert it to other GUI libraries, i.e. GTK.
