It's hard to explain why, I'm not really sure myself. After thinking about it, I think I've found a reason. It's quite simple: my previous computer experience tell me that "tabs don't behave this way". Well, they don't do it in real life either, of course. They should only "move" along the z axis. Yes. I see the buttons on Kickoff as tabs, and tabs just shouldn't slide this way. Or so says my brain, I think. Maybe it's just me. ------=_Part_6817_14057181.1205270286384 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline
That's how it would behave like: http://www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/~momesana/out.ogv
With the previous look of course ;-). I would like to get some feedback about this. If you like it to have that circular movement I can go on and implement it (it's actually mostly implemented as you can see). But the code is more complicated now (with ~90 more lines) and I haven't even properly implemented the paintEvent.

No offense, but I don't like it. It's hard to explain why, I'm not really sure myself.

Yes. I see the buttons on Kickoff as tabs, and tabs just shouldn't slide this way. Or so says my brain, I think. Maybe it's just me.
