    Default How to keep tool windows activated

    Hello all,

    Please have a look at the Window Flags example in the Qt Demos ( Widgets section ).
    Set the type of the window to Tool.

    Now, when you click in the tool, the parent window title bar will be deactivated. Also when you click in the main window, the tool window title bar will be deactivated.

    Is there a way of keeping both active, no matter which widget has the focus ( except implementing a custom style )?

    For example. look at Photoshop, or Illustrator ( anyway, their tool windows are custom drawn, but the main window doesn't get deactivated when you click in one of them ).

    Regards
