[Qt-interest] QDialog inside a QWidget

[Smokey McPott]

Hi,
my first idea would be to set the dialog's maximumSize to the parent's size
and reimplement moveEvent(QMoveEvent *event). Like this:

void Dialog::moveEvent(QMoveEvent *event)
{
    position = event.pos();
    if(position.x + this.size().width() > parent.pos().x +
parent.size().width() || position.x() < parent().pos().x() || /*same for
height*/ ...)
    {
        event.ignore();
    }
    else
    {
        QDialog::moveEvent(event);
    }
}

didn't test it though. Hope it helps...
