[Qt-interest] Can I enable a user to drag and place a, for example, QPushButton on a form?

[Robert Wood]

Just in case anyone else reads this and needs to do the same thing, I 
have eventually got it working.

I am not really sure it's the best piece of OO coding, but it certainly 
works nicely for me. Also, as far as I can work out, this isn't really a 
drag and drop situation more just a move situation, but I could well be 
talking out of my hat.

I have put a little explanation and the source code at the URL below in 
case anyone else looks through the archives and thinks "That's what I 
want to do!"

Cheers,
