@MicNielsen I guess it isn't possible :(

Here are the screenshots depicting the problem:
works from web
fails from local drive

As I understand the problem with a proxy so no one decided? Thought the new firmware would fix the matter, but my proxy provider says that the problem is not on their side.

Disregard my previous post, cookies policy can be set in the QWebEngineProfile owned by the QWebEnginePage owned by the QWebEngineView, like this: ui->webView->page()->profile()->setPersistentCookiesPolicy(QWebEngineProfile::NoPersistentCookies);

The page pointer remains the same for my purposes, at least.

I use this code to resolve my problem :

Rectangle {
width: (tabView.width)-30
Layout.preferredHeight: 400
z:1
WebEngineView {
id: webview
url: "http://google.com"
anchors.fill: parent
}

}

Below is the one I tried. Now the link opens in a new window.
But how do I make it open in a new tab.
I checked the link which was provided in the previous code. But as beginner, it's too much for me to understand.

#include "WebEnginePage.h" WebEnginePage::WebEnginePage(QObject *parent) : QWebEnginePage(parent) { connect(this,SIGNAL(urlChanged(QUrl)),this,SLOT(loadInTab(QUrl))); } WebEnginePage::~WebEnginePage() { } void WebEnginePage::loadInTab(QUrl url) { qDebug()<<"Page : "<<url; emit pageInNewTab(url); } #include "WebEngineView.h" WebEngineView::WebEngineView(QWidget *parent) : QWebEngineView(parent) { webPage = new WebEnginePage(this); setPage(webPage); setGeometry(0,35,dw.width(),dw.height()-35); // connect(page(),SIGNAL(urlChanged(QUrl)),this,SLOT(loadInNewTab(QUrl))); connect(page(),SIGNAL(pageInNewTab(QUrl)),this,SLOT(loadInNewTab(QUrl))); hide(); connect(this, SIGNAL(loadFinished(bool)), this, SLOT(onPageLoadFinished(bool))); } void WebEngineView::onPageLoadFinished(bool value) { qDebug()<<"WebEngineView::onPageLoadFinished"; show(); emit newTab(this); } WebEngineView::~WebEngineView() { } WebEngineView *WebEngineView::createWindow(QWebEnginePage::WebWindowType type) { Q_UNUSED(type); qDebug()<<"WebEngineView::createWindow"; WebEngineView *webView = new WebEngineView(); qDebug()<<"Index : "<<++index; WebEnginePage *newWeb = new WebEnginePage(webView); webView->setAttribute(Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose, true); webView->setPage(newWeb); //webView->show(); return webView; } void WebEngineView::loadInNewTab(QUrl url) { qDebug()<<"WebEngineView "<<index<<" : "<<url; // createWindow(QWebEnginePage::WebBrowserTab); } int WebEngineView::getIndex() const { return index; } void WebEngineView::setIndex(int value) { index = value; } #include "TabWindow.h" TabWindow::TabWindow(QWidget *parent) : QMainWindow(parent) { weView = new WebEngineView(this); weView->setGeometry(0,50,dw.width(),dw.height()); loadedUrl = QUrl("http://www.google.co.in"); //weView->load(QUrl(loadedUrl)); weView->webPage->load(loadedUrl); QWidget *centralWidget = new QWidget(this); tabWidget = new QTabWidget(centralWidget); tabWidget->setTabsClosable(true); //tabWidget->setElideMode(Qt::ElideRight); tabWidget->setFixedSize(dw.width(),dw.height()); loadedUrl = QUrl("http://www.google.co.in"); tabWidget->addTab(weView,loadedUrl.host()); setCentralWidget(centralWidget); currentIndex = 0; weView->setIndex(currentIndex); //weViewNew = new WebEngineView(this); connect(weView,SIGNAL(newTab(WebEngineView&)),this,SLOT(loadNewTab(WebEngineView7))); connect(tabWidget,SIGNAL(tabCloseRequested(int)),this,SLOT(closeTab(int))); } TabWindow::~TabWindow() { } void TabWindow::closeTab(int index) { tabWidget->removeTab(index); } void TabWindow::loadNewTab(WebEngineView *webView) { //webView->show(); tabWidget->addTab(webView,webView->webPage->url().host()); //tabWidget->setCurrentIndex(currentIndex); qDebug()<<"TabWindow::loadNewTab : "; }

Had the same issue. Even the topic is quite old I publish here my solution for anyone that might have this issue now.

Note that I need to track the mouse, so I call setMouseTracking(true); in the constructor.

class CustomWebEngineView: public QWebEngineView { public: explicit CustomWebEngineView(QWidget *parent = nullptr): QWebEngineView(parent) { QApplication::instance()->installEventFilter(this); setMouseTracking(true); } protected: bool eventFilter(QObject *object, QEvent *event) { if (object->parent() == this && event->type() == QEvent::MouseMove) { mouseMoveEvent(static_cast<QMouseEvent *>(event)); } return false; } };
