Thanks for the replies. I made the two suggested changes:

class Dialog : public QWidget, private Ui::Dialog
to
class Dialog : public QDialog, private Ui::Dialog

and then that allowed

myDialog->show();
to
myDialog->exec();

However, the behavior did not change. The dialog that appears is still blank.

The ui_form.h and ui_dialog.h look correct - they are generated from
CMakeLists.txt by the line QT4_WRAP_CPP(MOCSrcs dialog.h form.h)

Any other thoughts?

Thanks,

David
