Depending on the state of the QDockWidget, the float and close buttons may be either disabled or not shown at all. The title bar displays the dock widgets window title, a float button and a close button. AppearanceĪ QDockWidget consists of a title bar and the content area. The QDockWidget API allows the programmer to restrict the dock widgets ability to move, float and close, as well as the areas in which they can be placed.

Dock windows are secondary windows placed in the dock widget area around the central widget in a QMainWindow.ĭock windows can be moved inside their current area, moved into new areas and floated (e.g., undocked) by the end-user. Keep in mind that will be for windows only so if you compile for linux or osx it will not work.QDockWidget provides the concept of dock widgets, also know as tool palettes or utility windows.

Here's a post from that shows you how to do it in windows with native calls (Qt doesn't have a call for it) in case you insist on forcing a color on your users. People customize their WMs to look how they like and standard looks are a foundation of GUI development. IMO, unless you are making a fully custom window like a video game launcher, or splash screen, or something like that you should let the window manager decorate the window. Then they have an option to "use system title bar and borders". If you want to force a specific color then you could make a window with a custom title bar and draw it however you want. You can change them (at a user level only) by changing your theme. Just an overlay when the setting widget pops? If so, maybe working with a QDialog (a modal one) would be Title bar decorations are managed by your window manager.

So I created a project with your code and here are some remarks:ġ Do not set a layout to your main window, just set the central widget with, wellĢ qreal is an alias for double, so instead of qreal(100)/100 just write 1.0 same for qreal(50)/100, just write 0.5 and it will be perfectly fine.ģ No need to use "this->" you are coding in C++, not JAVA )įor your problem, I think I don't really get what you are expecting. Which could be fine, if you really know what you're doing, and you are aware that you'll have to deal with a lot of work to make your application look the same on every platform. This doesn't solve your problem, but could explain why you are having so much trouble trying to code an overlay that behaves with good focus policy, and using low level code such as QPalette that is always a sign you're doing something wrong, or at least not initially intended. Nonetheless, things might evolve in the future, since Qt developers have communicated about resuming the widgets development. This is either because the widgets part is late compared to the QML one, or because "modern" has been associated with app, browsers, Internet, but not with desktop. Long story short: there is no user friendly API to do so, or at least as user friendly as what QML provides.

For the focus part, you can use setFocusPolicy on your widgets, giving an enum that tells more about the behavior you expect.įor what I have experienced, playing with opacity and trying to give a modern look to a desktop software is kind of a pain. Now regarding your problem, only one widget can have focus at the same time. Qt has a pattern that is based on parent widget (the parameter "this" in widget constructors) that take care of destructing all the children automatically when the parent is deleted: First thing, please don't delete all that stuff in your destructors.
