    Hi,

    i am looking for an approach/solution to display a QWidget in my MainFrame, but the QWidget would come from another executable.

    The scenario is very similar to the Google Chrome and Internet Explorer 8/9 concept. There each tab is rendered in another executable instance.

    I tried to google it out, but there was no luck yet :-)

      Perhaps "this":http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2010/02/10/a-lighthouse-with-windows/ can be an inspiration?

        Yes, that is a great idea... the only problem now is that as example the QLineEdit does not get rendered including the keyboard input cursor, because it is not in an active window....

          That thing was meant as an inspiration, not a ready-made solution.

            Thanks Andre,

            i finally give up on this, it seems to me impossible to get the component rendered including the focus.
