    How can I do it?

    Add a getter method to your dialog which returns the data you need. No need for signals/slots here.

    // In MainWindow
    Dialog dlg;
    dlg.exec();
    QString value = dlg.getResult();
    
    // In Dialog
    QString Dialog::getResult()
    {
        return ui->pmFV->text();
    }

    @jsulm It worked, thanks!
    Just a quick question: I'm actually have more QLineEdit value to transfer from Dialog to MW;
    I tried via getValuePar():

    dialog.cpp

    QString parametri::getValuePar()
    {
        QString pmFV =  ui->pmFV->text();    
       QString glmF = ui->glmF->text();    
         QString icpF =ui->icpF->text();    
         QString gamEP =ui->gamEP->text();    
          QString icpEP = ui->icpEP->text();
        return pmFV + glmF;
    }
    
    QString parametri::getResult()
    {
        return getValuePar();
    }
    

    MainWindow,cpp

    void MainWindow::on_parametri_clicked()
    {
        class parametri pd;
        pd.exec();
        QString value = pd.getResult();
        qDebug() << value;
    }
    

    When I run the project It opens the MainWindow but crashed when I click the button to open the Dialog

      What do you expect? I mean - what should this do:

      QString parametri::getValuePar()
      {
          ui->pmFV->text();
          ui->glmF->text();
          ui->icpF->text();
          ui->gamEP->text();
      }
      

      Please learn c++ basics.

        Either create a getter method for each of them or create a structure where you put all these strings and implement a getter method which returns this struct.

          I think it crashes here QString value = pd.getResult();

          because your non void function has no return statement. You should have at least a warning about this in QtCreator.

            @Christian-Ehrlicher I was trying to get every text for my QLineEdit; I wrote it like that just becuase I thought I have to wrote it like this to have the same result as the first answer i get.

            What do you expect?

            As I already said: I just want to get the texts from QLineEdit in my Dialog to my Main Window

              I dont, because my MainWindow start and when I try to open the Dialog the terminal just says it crashed. If I had a warning first I would see it and second my application woudnt start at all

                I actually dont know how to do that. It the right way I mean. It's already been 2days i'm trying to have this :(

                  @aim0d I change it
                  but the result is the two values united like these are the values:
                  QString pmFV = ui->pmFV->text(123);
                  QString glmF = ui->glmF->text(78);

                  and this is the output in qDebug() -> 12378

                        It does not compile since QLineEdit has not function text() which takes an integer.

                        I'm out here.

                          I dont have actual time to learn c++ in a right way

                          Do you think it is better/more efficient to spend a lot of time in a forum to get help for issues you would not have if you would learn the basics of the programming language you're using? You should really reconsider your approach...

                          struct is one of the most basic things in C++:

                          struct Data
                          {
                              QString data1;
                              QString data2;
                              ...
                          }
                          
                          Data parametri::getValuePar()
                          {
                              Data result;
                              result.data1 = ui->pmFV->text();
                              result.data2 = ui->glmF->text();
                              ...
                              return result;
                          }

                            I know, but as I said it's a project my boss gives me with a deadline in a week and they know I have little experience in C++; so i'm stuck here trying to build something with what I know and I found online
