{{Note|Building a QT based GUI is not in any way meant to obstruct the further development of a Canvas based GUI. We did voice some concerns as to whether the need to re-implement a complete widget is worth the cost is terms of development effort. The beauty of open source is that there's more than one way to do things, however. Especially in a completely modular environment (via [[HLA]]) [http://sourceforge.net/p/flightgear/mailman/message/34196458/].

|1= Canvas works fine in this scenario, we can embed the texture or image a Canvas produces into a QtQuick dialog just fine. (It would be possible to reimplement Canvas using Qt but I don’t see any benefit there - the non-Qt builds still need Canvas support for flight-displays and the like)
