I agree with Willy that in cases where the program design doesn't allow 
on-the-fly updates the Apply-Button should be removed.

In your case the (modal) dialog simply has to know the main widget and call an 
appropriate "update/change content" function. The framework will sort the 
updating out (so that the main widget will display the 8 cards and the modal 
dialog will be put on top of it again). So just go ahead, write that update 
function (as you probably have already), pass a pointer to your main widget 
to the dialog and let him simply call that function from your 
"applyButtonClick" slot.
