But in my case, the area is not really empty. It's Oxygen that thinks it is. I guess a picture is worth a thousand words, so take a look at this: http://i52.tinypic.com/6r0fp4.png The window can be dragged in the lower part of the star field (below the "press any key" text). This shouldn't be possible. >> Note that dragging in those areas shouldn't be possible to begin with. > "To begin with", Why so ?

And I like it even :-) It's just that I need to control it in my application because it behaves a bit wrong. >> So the question is: is there a way I can disable this for specific QWidgets? >> >> If you wonder about the details of my situation: I use a QScrollArea to >> display a QWidget (where I'm drawing stuff using custom painting).

Which in my case isn't empty :-) There's no reason, from the user's point of view, why dragging is possible below the text but not possible above it. Does this btw look more like a bug in Oxygen? Should I report it? To me it looks more like it's behaving correctly, but one type of behavior can't possibly fit all use cases out there, one of which happens to me mine. >> Visit http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-devel#unsub to unsubscribe <<
