Can't get child of qDomNode

[d_stranz]

Using the same name for each child element will also make it a bit easier to traverse the hierarchy - instead of going sibling by sibling and testing for null, you can simply ask for all child nodes with a given tag name (into a QDomNodeList) and just iterate over it.

I've got it working. Right now, the beginning of the file looks like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project>
    <info project_name="mattMathilde" project_path="C:/Users/gldalar5/mattMathilde" pad_width="800" pad_height="600"/>
    <storyboard padCount="2" folder="epi1">
        <pad timing="50">

Thanks to your suggestions, the xml is much better and precise now.
The 'padCount' value was moved from the 'project' to the 'storyboard' tag, where it belongs. A project can have many storyboards, and each storyboard must know how many pads there are to the storyboard. My mistake.
The 'count' value in the 'pad' tag has been removed, since I don't use the count, and just iterate over lines in each pad.
Each line has a color AND a width, so I added a 'width' value. Another mistake.
And - finally - the idea of calling the pad-node 'pad' and the line-node 'line', is so obvious, that it almost hurts.
Thankyou for helping!
