You can search the forum..
There was this recent thread (http://www.qtcentre.org/forum/f-qt-programming-2/t-how-to-get-mouse-click-events-outside-the-qt-window-20642.html) on the forum.

Thank you.
One more question, do you know how to show the window when mouse enter a spefified rectangle, while hide it when the mouse leave that rectangle?
