Why not do a KCModule geared around the 'settings' pieces you can support, and a separate Administration application that can be launched from the KCModule? At least that way it's integrated, and still part of KControl.. AND you can have your menus and toolbars, etc. Pupeno wrote: >-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- >Hash: SHA1 > >Hello ark linux developers... >I have a design problem... >I'm working on the UserManagementTool... >As my dream is to have an unified KControl with everything related to >configuration I started developing UserManagementTool as a KCModule, but I'm >finding a problem.
