</div></div>I haven't looked at this problem, but casting can change the pointer's<br>
value in C++ when there's multiple inheritance. This is due to C++'s<br>
virtual function table mechanism for inheritance. For more info see<br>
section 4.4 of <a href="http://www-plan.cs.colorado.edu/diwan/class-papers/mi.pdf" target="_blank">http://www-plan.cs.colorado.edu/diwan/class-papers/mi.pdf</a><br>
<font color="#888888"><br></font></blockquote></div></div><div><br>Alrighty then. Right now, we're using the introspection information of the QGraphicsItem to resolve the class from the QGraphicsItem returned by itemAt() down to QGraphicsTextItem (so that we can use methods like toPlainText()). But the pointer is still of QGraphicsItem type, so must be cast appropriately via smoke->cast(). I'll fix this tonight.<br>
