I just try to learn more about the differences and this is why I) asked 
this question. As the same fpGUI name is used I suppose that at least 
_some_ code is shared.

I (think I) do understand this.

Obviously. My interpretation is that the two GUI designers, that of 
course manage different types of control files and use different ways to 
include the GUI design information in the runtime executable, in the end 
use the same backend to paint the control elements.

I understand that the different provenience of the two "legacy" GUI 
designers can/needs to be handled when integrating fpGUI into Lazarus. 
And I feel that "in the end" both should result in a similar level of 
perfection. This might mean that a rather large integration of them 
could be desirable.
