    Hello,
    What is the best way to create QtCreator "Application Output", "Compile Output" type windows/panes? I want to have a button like "Application Output" (or some other control type) that sits in the status bar and when clicked opens the window/pane like QtCreator does. Any pointers would be deeply appreciated.

    Thanks,
    JG.

      Hi,

      If you want to do it Qt Creator style, then the best is to take a look at its source code.

      For a quick start though, QTabWidget might do the trick.

        You could use a QDockWidget and a QTextEdit to display Output / Debug Text, Application Msg or want ever you want.
        Here is an example


        If debugging is the process of removing software bugs, then programming must be the process of putting them in.
