QDocWidget cannot move when undocked
-

-
Have you set the Movable property to true for the dock widget?
-
I have added the QDocWidget using the designer, the movable properties is set to true, however the dockables don't seem to work when they are parented to a QHBoxLayout (using the designer). In the latter case they are unable to be dragged after they are undocked. Is there something I should do to allow dragging ? or - ehem - is that a bug ?
-
can u paste ur code here ? including the ui header generated by designer

A dock widget should not be put into any layout.

Volker: is there a reason for that? I should be able to put them in whatever container I want, no ?
Can you give me more details ?

[/quote]That's just the way dock widgets work. Dock widgets are meant to live either in the dock area or as independent windows. They are not designed to be put into QLayout subclasses.
