Version 1.6 on Windows:

Project -> Project Options -> Additions and Overrides -> Set "LCLWidgetType" -> Drop Down selection Value "fpgui".

Sadly in my compiled "trunk" version 1.7 on Linux (revision 53324), the <"LCLWidgetType"> drop down menu is not shown any more. So the available WidgetTypes (aka Interfaces) can't be easily selected .

Bug, feature or erroneous configuration on my site ?

Strange, here it is (Win10 - it shouldn't be OS-dependent). Please recheck.

Graeme pointed me to the cause. I did not define the project as an "LCL project" (as this is a project to test my own extension to the NoGUI widget Type which of course is not yet in the LCL but in my own code).

After defining a new project I do see drop down menu.

So not a bug but a decent feature.

I improved user experience in r53326.
