Oh, I get that, believe me. The info I need is around that ; I wish your 
sentence had started earlier, like so "in port_event(), given /this/ 
class declared like /this/ and an objet wid instantiated like /this/, we 
do this (...)"

 From my port_event() I point to my UI object via the LV2UIHandle. this 
object is a NTK widget (or so I hope, read on). So if I get a:

error: ‘class KisWidget’ has no member named ‘value’ (it's pretty explicit)

It means the class KisWidget has no member named "value" I guess we can 
agree on that ;)

It must be that I did not declare my Widget class as a proper NTK 
widget. The declaration is at line 25 in this file 
<https://bitbucket.org/xaccrocheur/kis/src/8c3a85a9899f117d2fa273b6c7948402d780fb46/widget.h?at=master>. 
The instantiation of the widgets (a FL_Dial and 5 FL_Slider) is at line 
96 in this file 
<https://bitbucket.org/xaccrocheur/kis/src/8c3a85a9899f117d2fa273b6c7948402d780fb46/widget.cpp?at=master>.

Now for the direct questions:

  * Is it a proper NTK widget class declaration, that would expose a
    value() method?
  * Are those proper NTK widget class instances?

Thanks for your patience
