Questions tagged [qdockwidget]

QDockWidget is a class from the Qt framework which represents a widget which can be docked inside a QMainWindow or floated as a top-level window in the desktop. Instances of this class are also called "dock widgets", "tool palettes" and "utility windows".

Dock widgets can be placed (docked) in a special area of a QMainWindow called dock widget area, which is the area surrounding the central widget. They can also be floated (undocked) by the end user.
