Get tabbing order

FrankE

Getting the widgets that are sharing the tab with your current widget is pretty easy just

QList<QDockWidget*> tabifiedDocks = mw->tabifiedDockWidgets(dock);

is needed so this is not a problem at all.

Now the issue is that I want to save this state and I didn't manage to get the order.

tabifiedDocks skips my current dock so I cannot get the order from there, also I tried to compare the geometry but it doesn't help neither.

Notice that there are lots of questions/responses about how to set the tab order but this one is about how to get it.

Thank you in advance for any tip.

QMainWindow::saveState() should already take care of this? You just need to make sure, your QDockWidgets have a unique object name set.

Otherwise you can query for the QTabBar in the dock widget, using findChild<QTabBar*>()
