for instance what should i do to place a pushbutton on edge of the screen ( like the config button on the top right corner in the above screenshot), or change the shape of the widgets

There are multiple ways for achieving that. I would suggest reading the "C++ GUI Programming With Qt 4" + investigating QML (esp. together with Desktop Components).
In short:
- You can use QSS.
- You can subclass widgets and change their rendering.
- You can subclass widgets to create new ones, like the dialgs, etc.
- You can use QML and it's flexibility.

I prefer QSS. But current tendentions are in direction of Qt Quick, QML (JavaScript-like language). Read about them on DevNet. Here a big Wiki with information.
