    Default Tab to new screen

    Hello,

    I am looking for a way to drag a tab from the main window to another screen and drop it there making it a new dialog and the other way around.

    Is this possible? What are the basic techniques to do this?

    Regards,

    Marcel Stegehuis

    You can't handle a drop outside of your application windows, so I guess you're stuck there. Maybe you want to consider using QDockWidgets.

    The behaviour I am looking for is like the tabs of Chrome. You can detach them from your main application. Also the tabs can be moved to another place.

    The result is that the centerwidget is also copied to the new window.

    Maybe I can use a dockable window but the problem is that that one does not allow a toolbar.

    Regards,

    Marcel
