[Interest] QMainWindow: add a dock widget as a floater?

[Samuel Gaist]

Hi,

As silly as it might sound, why don't you just not add the QDockWidget ?
By default at construction time, the QDockWidget is a floater. If you want it to be a QMainWindow children, just make the QMainWindow it's parent.

Another thing that might be done is using setFloating() from QDockWidget.

Hope it helps
Samuel
