Hey, I solved this problem. This is my last code

//maingui.h
#include <QTabBar>
...
private slots:
...
    void mouseMoveEvent(QMouseEvent *event);

private:
    QList<QTabBar *> tabBar ;

This is the CPP File

//maingui.cpp
MainGUI::MainGUI(QWidget *parent)
    : QDialog(parent, Qt::WindowTitleHint |  Qt::WindowMinimizeButtonHint | Qt::WindowCloseButtonHint | Qt::WindowMaximizeButtonHint),
    ui(new Ui::MainGUI)
{
    ui->setupUi(this);
    setMouseTracking(true);
...
}

void MainGUI::mouseMoveEvent(QMouseEvent *event){
    tabBar = this->ui->tabWidget->findChildren<QTabBar *>();
    tabBar.at(0)->setCursor(Qt::PointingHandCursor);
}

But sometimes its not initialize for the first time. Thank you

@mimamrafi I don't think you can without subclassing; there is no header property that would return the tab headers only.

@mimamrafi
install an eventfilter on the tabbar and on mousemove events check QTabBar::tabAt() >= 0 to set your cursor, else restore the cursor

@artwaw I think it could. I using 'if' method. when the cursor enters the widget area, it changes. But i know this is newbie's method so it just for static window (I still can't how to make dynamically when we resize the window)

@raven-worx yes, I'm using mouse movement event filter. But I still can't get the tab bar
