Re: Another dialog preview

 

Nice work.  This looks great!

I wouldn't worry too much about the out of process apps.  I suppose you
could set up a file watcher in both kicad and the out of process app to
update the preferences when the configuration or hotkey files change but
that may be more work than it's worth.
