[SOLVED] QWidget - how to bring it to front if parent is NULL?

[Huk]

Hello everyone.

Here is the problem:

In my application I have one MainWindow and one widget, the widget is created dynamically by something like this:

if(fo)
{
    fo->show();
}
else
{
    fo=new filterOptions(&ut,&lt,&maxDifference,&maxAngleDifference,
                         &checkDistance,&checkAngle);
    fo->setAttribute(Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose);
    fo->show();
}

if(fo)
{
    fo->show();
}
else
{
    fo=new filterOptions(&ut,&lt,&maxDifference,&maxAngleDifference,
                         &checkDistance,&checkAngle);
    fo->setAttribute(Qt::WA_DeleteOnClose);
    fo->show();
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

It works OK, but I want it to bring the widget window to front, if it is behind mainWindow (which is maximized), how can I do that? show() doesn't seem to work for parentless windows.

Thanks in advance for the answers.

Try QWidget::activateWindow() or QWidget::raise().

activateWindow() seem to work.
