It is actually not all that obvious. I checked, and I could not find it in 
there.
So: some pointers for the TS then:
QDesktopWidget has a lot of useful properties, including things like "QRect 
screenGeometry()". To center your window, you can use your window's 
setGeometry or move methods. Note however that these refer to the upper left 
point of your window. A bit of adding and dividing is needed to get where 
you want, but that should not be too hard.
