I could never understand this appendage to posts...
What does it imply, that we read the post, and do: "mmm... I'll first wait a couple of hours before I'll post my answer to this one..."??

have a look at QWidget::setGeometry() (http://doc.trolltech.com/4.3/qwidget.html#geometry-prop)
and QWidget::move() (http://doc.trolltech.com/4.3/qwidget.html#pos-prop)

This may be too late but I do this to move a dialog directly underneath another dialog:



int resultsY = windowA->y() + windowA->frameGeometry().height();
int resultsX = windowA->x();
windowB->move(resultsX, resultsY);


You could probably just do:


windowB->move(windowA->x(), windowA->y());


to move it over the current dialog starting at the top left corner

It sounds like you have done this already but if anyone else is trying it, make sure you have down a show() on the dialogs first so that they are at their final position/size before moving them.

Let me add to that, that a QDialog with a parent is automatically centered on top of the parent's top-level widget.
