external application window properties and decoration.
Message 1 in thread
Hello,
I've built a Qt application which deals with flash movies, and in it I'm running an external application (external flash player).
The player opens a window with some menus and the "lineEdit"-like control with the name of the flash movie.
Does anyone knows how can I control the player? I mean its geometry, position on a screen, border styles etc.
Or maybe creating a window in my application, into which the player will redirect his graphical output. (I guess that the flash player uses only X libraries)
The second option is to use ready libraries that decode flash (swf) movies, and somehow integrate its code into my application. Maybe someone knows good and simple swf-decode libraries (which will be appliable in qt).??? The libraries I found so far, either couldn't pass the compilation process or did not show the flash movies correctly.
I'm pretty new in Qt, so I guess all kinds of information will be useful.
Thank you very much.
Gregg.

I guess QX11EmbedContainer/QX11EmbedWidget is what you are looking for :-)
Cheers,
