It's confusing but I think I nearly got it : you want the dialog to appear in the task bar so that it can be shown on user request but will remain hidden until the user asks for it. Is that right? In this case QWidget::showMinimized() should fit...

Not really

I want the main QDialog, the anchor, to not be visible at all. Never. Nor in the task bar, nor minimized

.

But I want all the other QDialogs, attached to the main one, to be displayed in the task bar when I click a button...

I will have a look to the showminimized for the other QDialogs, thanks

Thats little confusing... cud u explain with a pic

neways, if u never want to show the dialog , why make it a dialog ??? u can simply create a class and use it... in this way it will hold ur data and will not be shown... !!
hope i am right...if not explain a little further...
