Dragging QDockWidgets between QMainWindows

Question

I have a question regarding dragging QDockWidgets between QMainWindows. I have an application with different \"DockAreas\" which have a QMainWindow member with one or more Q

Answer 1

I'm wrestling with the same Problem right now and want to share.

Ich found this forum post dealing with the same problem: http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/41847-Dragging-QDockWidgets-between-QMainWindows This solution is however flawed: it doesn't work properly if you allow the Dockables to be floating. And the enterEvent does not actually trigger when you enter the other window and still dragging the QDockWidget. It only triggers after release.

I'm also going for the reparenting (1). QDrag seems problematic when you also want to allow rearranging the QDockWidget within the Window.

I think one would correctly do this by reacting to the drop/release of the dragged QDockWidget. But I can't find an event or signal for this.
