    I hope this is a very easy question.
    I am building an application and I want an additional window / dialog to open.
    How do I design this?
    I'm sure that in earlier versions I had the option to create a new dialog which I could edit in the designer and then call as required.
    I do not have any options to do that now, all I can add is a new class, cpp file or header file.
    I guess I could start a new project and design my form there and then copy the files across into my project but that seems a very strange way to do things.
    I hope I am missing something really simple but I've spent a couple of hours searching and experimenting with no luck.
    I'm on Linux Mint 21 and apart from this little problem, everything is working as I expect.
    Thx
    Colin

      It should still be there.
      What type of project do you have? Is it a widgets project?

            @Colins2 You need to select Qt on the left side

              @jsulm Yes, I have just found that! I was concentrating too much on the C++ aspect and avoiding the python/java options and overlooked the simple answer!
              Thanks.
