[Solved] How to implement disjoint QTabWidget ?

amban

Hi,
I have followed the QTabDialog example [http://doc.qt.nokia.com/stable/dialogs-tabdialog.html]. What i want to achieve is that instead of a QTabWidget where all the tabs are joined together, i want that in a particular widget (i dont understand what it should be ?) the tabs will be generated however they are not joint.

Please give me some ideas on how to implement this.

Thanks

Do you have a short sketch or example of what you want to achieve?

Sure.

If you are familiar to the Graphviz Editor, when you click open/new file then it generates the new tab within a specific area....all tabs are scrolled, minimized, maximied within this region. How to implement this? I currently add the tabs to a QTabWidget which groups together all the tabs.

Thanks

Ah, so that is not tabs, but MDI.

Note that you can make MDI windows also appear as tabs.
