starter project for visio list, drag drop, panel interface
-
I am looking for an example project to jumpstart work that will present a UI similar that used by visio, with sections in library list on left and drag and drop onto a panel similar to what you see in pic below. I could make these in older MFC style docs but dont see how to do it here. Any help much appreciated.

I guess the main drawing area would be best implemented using the Graphics View Framework. There are a few examples that should be informative, esp. the Diagram Scene.

Hi, do you want a partner in code writing?No money , just free help with coding.
Your project is exactly what I am looking for - graphical l rendition of the project / application - sort of old fashioned flow chart style.
Cheers

@oohogwash Take a look at Qt Examples "diagramscene" .
It is pretty crude, but it may be a start. -
@oohogwash It reads well, and seems to do what i need and more. Thanks again

@oohogwash I have been trying to get the GraphicsView Framework working with the open source version of QT, i appears that it has a number of issues with CMake and I am not even sure that the correct library / api calls will be available as the open source version looks like it is 9 yrs old now. I was going to use the open source version to see if I can make this work for what i want to do as the full version is too much cost for an unknown product and there is no middle ground as far as I can tell. One month trial did not download so I can only assume there are more bugs there.
If you have any ideas how to address this pls let me know. -

The Qt Graphics Framework is a part of all versions of Qt 5 and Qt 6 (widgets module, open source or commercial) right up to the latest of each: neither of which is 9 years old.
