BTW, note that you can omit the 3rd parameter in addTabifiedDockWidget() and your dock widget will be tabified in that location, no matter which dock widget is already placed there.
iface.addTabifiedDockWidget(Qt.RightDockWidgetArea, my_own_dock_widget) On the other hand, if you really need to get existent dock widgets in a given location, this function will do it: def dockWidgetsInArea(area): dwa = [] for dw in iface.mainWindow().findChildren(QDockWidget): if dw.isVisible() and iface.mainWindow().dockWidgetArea(dw) == area: dwa.append(dw) return dwa Use it in this way: dws = dockWidgetsInArea(Qt.RightDockWidgetArea) Regards, Germán El jue, 13 jun 2024 a las 21:25, Germán Carrillo (<carrillo.ger...@gmail.com>) escribió: > Hi Luke, > > > you can get a list of all QDockWidget objects in this way: > > iface.mainWindow().findChildren(QDockWidget) > > From there you could get objectNames, whether the dock widget is visible > or not, its allowed areas and window title, among other properties. > > The objectName is relevant, because you can pass it as the 3rd parameter > to addTabifiedDockWidget(), in this way: > > iface.addTabifiedDockWidget(Qt.RightDockWidgetArea, my_own_dock_widget, > ["ProcessingToolbox"]) > > In that way, your dock widget will be tabified taking the > ProcessingToolbox dock widget as a reference.
