# Advanced Docking System Manages content widgets more like Visual Studio or similar programs. I also try to get everything done with basic Qt functionality. Basic usage of QWidgets an QLayouts and using basic styles as much as possible. ![Layout of widgets](preview01.png) ![Dropping widgets](preview02.png) ## Tested with - Requirements **Windows** - \>= Qt 5.5, VC12 or MinGW - \>= Qt 4.5.3 VC9 - *not as good...* **Linux** - Not yet tested ## Build Open the `build.pro` with QtCreator and start the build, that's it. ## Notes - *SectionContent* class may safe a "size-type" property, which defines how the size of the widget should be handled. - PerCent: Resize in proportion to other widgets. - Fixed: Width or height are fixed (based on orientation). ## TODOs Sorted by priority - [x] Improve FloatingWidget (Remove maximize button, only support close-button which hides the widget) - [x] Serialize and Deserialize state/size/positions of dockings - [x] Make compatible with Qt 4.5 (\*ROFL!\*) - [x] Save and restore FloatingWidget states - [x] Restore: Manage new or deleted SectionContent objects, which are not available - [ ] Show close button on right corner of SectionWidget - [ ] Drop indicator images should be fully visible over the DropOverlay rectangle - [ ] Pin contents: Pins a content and its title widget to the edge and opens on click/hover as long as it has focus ## Bugs - [x] Working with outer-edge-drops sometimes leaves empty splitters - [x] Clean up of unused e.g. count()<=1 QSplitters doesn't work well - [ ] Empty splitters, if only 2 or 1 items are in container ## Credits - Drop indicator images from: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/140209/Building-a-Docking-Window-Management-Solution-in-W ## License Not sure yet... It's in development status anyway.
