(I received the message above directly instead of via the list).

Thank you Bill, at least I know that I am not the only one wanting to drag a dock widget between main windows.

As such, I have attached a short example demonstrating more fully what I said in my previous email. I believe it will give us a better starting point for discussing solutions. For reference, I am developing with Qt 4.4 but I did not see anything in Qt 4.5 that addresses this issue.

So, has anyone else actually managed to dock a widget in multiple main windows?
