Qt Window navigation

[jbarrena]

Hi there!

I am a relatively newbie in Qt, and I am developing a small application that has 5 screens. We can navigate back and forth within the screens. We have first the main window and then some screens that we can reach pushing some buttons.

MainWindow <-------> Window 1 <----------> Window 4
|
|<---> Window 2 <----------> Window 5
|
|<---> Window 3

How can I implement this?? A "parent" MainWindow and some "child" Dialogs perhaps?? Is there any example implementing a navigation between some windows??

Thanks and kind regards!

Try QStackedWidget (http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qstackedwidget.html)

Thanks for the early response stampede.

One question about the QStackedWidget, are the added widgets active in memory?? I mean, if I have a widget that has some timers and slots inside, are they executing from the moment that are added to the stacked widget??

Thakns again!

Yes, all widgets that have been created and have not been destroyed yet are "alive".
