  • ISO configuration widget

    Hello out there,
    working on a GUI heavy app I feel the need to add some config options
    for the users to modify the appearance of various widgets.
    Since this task will have been accomplished already a thousand times I
    would be grateful for links to examples for inspiration.
    Thanks in advance
