Hi,

I'm working on a new GUI for the linguistic analyzer of my lab:
https://github.com/aymara/lima/tree/master/lima_gui

The interface is currently purely QML based with text based displays. A \
standard way at looking results is through graphs like the one attached. In \
fact, I started kgraphviewer (kgv) to visualize these graphs…

So, I thinked about integrating the kgraphviewer kpart in the GUI and then \
discovered that it is not quite possible. Or at least complex and \
inefficient. 

I'd like to get your advice on what would be the right solution. I thinked \
                at several possibilities:
- use the graphivz lib API to generate an image and show the image in the \
                UI;
- use the kgv API to load the graph without dispalying it in the widget and \
                export it to an image like above;
- use the kgv API to load the graph and reimplement in QML the kgv canvas \
elements (based on QAbstractGraphicsShapeItem).

The latter seems to be the best but also complicated with the current QML \
API.

What do you think ? Does one of these solutions seems reasonable ? Other \
ideas ?

Thanks for your attention ?

Regards,

Gaël
