Subject: temporarily hiding a QDialog
X-MARC-Message: https://marc.info/?l=kde-devel&m=106092284028732

Hello,

I would like to temporarily hide a tool window derived from a QDialog[*] 
to reveal the KMainWindow of my application while some code runs, and 
then show the tool window again when the code has finished.

In the Qt/KDE API docs, "hide" and "close" seem to be synonymous.  I 
can't close the tool window, because the code that is running is part 
of the tool.  So, is there any way to hide a dialog without closing it?  
It would also be acceptable if the dialog could be lowered behind the 
KMainWindow.

Thanks for any tips,
Jason

[*] also, is it possible to derive from KDialogBase using Qt designer?
