The framework - set of internal libraries, will be open sourced.


I'm not sure that such change will be as significant as you describe. The 4 IDEs actually share 90% of the code between them and the IDE is small enough that it is not a big deal to have 4 copies of it.


I tried to "paste" some views "copied" from Designer (selecting them all and pressing CTRL+C) to a text editor, without success, so the Windows Clipboard does not contain text.

Will be "shared" (open source) this too? Can I manage it some way even now (as well as being able to copy them in another designer - or in another layout, which of course already feasible now)?

It is a (maybe not so clear) "wish": I would like to know how copying works and how to use it, not only in the B4X IDEs

It does not seem to me a question to ask in the question forums.

If it looks like that to you, you can move it, right?

The clipboard data for layouts is not meant to be used externally. If you want to build a tool that does something with the layouts then use BalConverter class that reads layout files.
I remember (vaguely) that I used it but that the result was not very satisfactory (or I didn't understand it well).

Perhaps it has changed since then; I'll try.
