You have my vote too.

Thank's Eddy :-). -
It should at least become a bit clearer where splitters exist. For instance, if you have the search box open in a code editor, the splitter is under the search box. That is not obvious at all though...

For that case I think it will be suitable to have hot tracking, like standart QSplitter. -
I am confused. Could you explain what you mean by hot tracking?
-
I guess it a change in the cursors (that would be handy at least): Qt::ArrowCursor vs Qt::SplitVCursor and Qt::SplitHCursor (see [[Doc:QCursor]] for images).
Right now, the cursor does not change when hovering over a splitter, so nobody "sees" that there is one.
-
The cursor does change for me. Problem is that I need to hunt for places where the cursor does that.
-
It sometimes changes for me, sometimes not. Somtimes it changes only if press the mouse button on the right "hot spot" to drag the splitter.

Sorry, I mean when mouse hover splitter it draws with another color. -
IIRC there are bug reports about these issues in JIRA for ages! It is not so straight forward to do due to the custom themeing we do, or so I was told.
Feel free to "provide some patches":https://codereview.qt-project.org/ to fix this;-)

Thanks Tobias, I'll think about it as soon as I find time (right now I have many work, little daughter :) and English language courses, so it's a bit difficult with time :-) )
