    I have all my widgets positioned in different layouts. Most of the widgets are placed inside group boxes. When I try to move a widget to a position next to a group box, I do not manage to drop the widget there. If the position should be between two group boxes, I can only drop the widget at the inside one of the group boxes. If the position should be between the group box and the end of the layout, I can only drop it inside the group box or outside the layout.

    I am using QtCreator on Mac OS X and observe this behavior for a long time.

    The only possible solution for me at the moment is to break the layout, arrange the widgets and apply a new layout. This is pretty annoying.

    Anyone who has an idea or is observing the same behavior?

      HI and welcome to devnet,

      I use Qt Designer since Qt v3.3 and, as you said, the best way to make changes in Forms with a lot of layouts is to brake them a re-create from scratch.
      Is for sure something that can be improved but the Qt guys are focusing to use QML for new UI.

      Once your problem is solved don't forget to:
