Need some help in Signal and Slots Connections.

Hi,
It seems that you are creating new widgets every time you click on a button. May I suggest to simplify things a bit ? It seems that what you want to do with MainWindow2 already exists as "QInputDialog":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qinputdialog.html
I would also suggest to have a look at the examples from the Qt documentation to better understand how widget interaction may be achieved.
Hope it helps

Read the "example":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/dialogs-standarddialogs.html

Hmmm. It's interesting. But, is it possible to do it with Widgets? As you can understand this is just the "problem" i have in my main Program. In there when i Press the Recount Button a New Window(main Class QWidget) pops up in which the user enter the values from a Calculator-type keyboard I created...

Sure it is, apply the same techniques used by QInputDialog.

After reading tons of posts, questions, answers, i realized that what i need to do is to make my own "QInputDialog::getInteger()" . I read the example you gave me , I Isolated the part that i am interested in, which is to take Int from the pop up dialog that shows up, but i also realized that this is a Standar procedure in Qt Libraries and i cannot change the Widgets used in it. So is there a way to make MainWindow2 on my code to be my own "QInputDialog::getInteger()" - style Dialog?

Read the source from QInputDialog, you'll see the pattern used and you can then replicate it for your purpose.

For them who want to know how the problem solved:
The easier way to take something of your dialog back to your mainwindow is to
define an external variable at the "top" of your mainwindow.cpp (for example @extern int c@)
and then just to pass it to your dialog (just @int c@ at the top of your dialog cpp).
For more details search for external variables.I know that we should avoid external declarations, but this way the life of a
non-profesional programmer... is realy much easier....This method, interrupts and the problem of arguments in SLOTS...
you don't realy need them.
