[Qt-interest] QDockWidget floating/non-floating style sheetissue

[Tony Rietwyk]

Hi Santhosh, 

I have just been playing with stylesheets over the weekend.  It has a really
cool feature - accessing properties directly, eg, in a QLabel

qproperty-text: "MyCaption";

So you can modify existing properties, that don't have css equivalents!  

But wait! there's more...

You can override a class and add your own properties, then refer to and set
them via the style-sheet! I used this to provide color changes when hovering
over a QLabel. 

In your case, I would try adding a read-only property that just reflects the
floating state. 

Now if some kind Trolltech person would actually document how to specify
values for ALL of the standard types of properties, eg, qproperty-pixmap:
url(:/images/myimage.png); ... ;O)

Hope that helps, 

Tony,
