    I'm afraid that you should not use modal dialogs in this case.
    Qt Assistant -- rocks!
    please, use tags [CODE] & [/CODE].

    Hello spirit,

    Thanks for your answer!!

    Basically I can not avoid or get rid of modal dialogs from the application.
    Can I make this modeless dialog as part of different application in such a way that it remains on top of my main application, and this way it will not be affected by modal dialogs in the main application.

    If I can do this then I guess I would need to synchronize the windows of two different apllications.
    Is there is any way in QT to handle the windows of two different applications?

    Thanks again!!

    dont pass the parent to your modeless window... set the parent 0 .. now hopefully the other model dialogs should not block your parentless window..
