Re: Newbie Question

All you need to do is create any widget you want to display, without
giving a "parent" argument, and it will be a toplevel window.

Here's a quick example:

use Qt;
$a = Qt::Application \@ARGV;
$b = Qt::PushButton "Show window", undef;   # undef parent
$b->show;
$w = Qt::Widget;    # no parent again!
$a->setMainWidget($b);
$w->connect($b, SIGNAL "clicked()", SLOT "show()");
$a->exec;

Or, from the command-line:
perl -MQt -e '$a = Qt::Application \@ARGV; $b = Qt::PushButton "Show",
undef; show $b; $w = Qt::Widget; setMainWidget $a $b; $w->connect($b,
SIGNAL "clicked()", SLOT "show()"); $a->exec'
