Hello,

I just finished writing an extensive wiki about using python possibilities in 
CsoundQt, see 

https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/qutecsound/index.php?title=Python_API_in_CsoundQt

For an example about using some Qt feature that is not otherwise possible in 
CsoundQt I thought about color picking dialog - when user moves cursor  in  
the color picking frame around, the constantly changing RGB values get 
forwarded to csound as parameters for sound control - so with one mouse 
movements three values (+ darkness factor) can be controlled. Not very 
practical, but nice and fun tool in some occasion.

Thinking about colours, I reminded immediately "Trapped in convent" by Richard 
Boulanger and I picked three intruments, obviously red, green and blue from it 
and the RGB values control the mix between theses three.

I attach the python script and csd. To test the py script, CsoundQt must be 
compiled with PythonQt support.

Dr. Boulanger, please let me know if you find this use of your instruments 
ripping them out from their right context inappropriate and  I will remove 
this example immediately!

with kindest regards,
tarmo

sorry,

one line in the pythonscript got deleted somehow:

from PythonQt.Qt import *

the on in previous mail does not work,
this one does.
