Hi Sivan,

If I got your description right you're talking about two different UI's, where one sets parameters to the other. I'd try to keep the two things decoupled from the QML perspective, and rather have a clean interface (in C++) that separates it. Whether you write your controller then in QML or QWidgets is up to you, but independent from the interaction with the rest... It's possible to interlink QDeclarativeContexts via e.g. the context chain, but I don't see how that helps you ...
 
Regards

Kai
