QAction ToolButton in toolbar triggered should open a TabWidget

[avpro]

hi,

still wondering how this issue should be approached. i'm back with more details.
let say that my internet browser is my mainWindow.

i have a button/link on my actual page if clicked is opening a new page in a new Tab.

the same I would like to do with my ToolBotton. as soon as i trigger it, the Ui form constructed in a separate .ui file should open in my MainWindow, but in a new Tab.

create a connection to open the particular tab index based on the button click signal.

how to do this?

What do you have so far?

Do you have a tab widget as your window's central widget?
Do you have the action in the toolbar?
Do you have a slot connected to the action's triggered() signal?
Do you have the import for the widget you want to show on the new tab?
Does your slot create an instance of that widget?
Does your slot then add the widget to the tab widget?

Cheers,
