[Interest] Keeping track of a QDialog position

[Igor Mironchik]

Hi,

Try something like this:

#include <QApplication>
#include <QDialog>
#include <QMoveEvent>
#include <QDebug>


class Dialog
     :    public QDialog
{
public:
     Dialog()
     {}

protected:
     void moveEvent( QMoveEvent * e )
     {
         qDebug() << e->pos();

         e->accept();
     }
};


int main( int argc, char ** argv )
{
     QApplication app( argc, argv );

     Dialog dlg;
     dlg.show();

     return app.exec();
}

But you will receive move events only when user finished move (mouse was 
released)...
