i have a main window with the menu bar
then a secondary, separate window.
since i want both windows to come to front when the user switches into
it, and i also want the key shortcuts from the menubar to function in
the second window, i set the parent of the 2nd window to the main
window. doing so fixes both problems.
however, when i do that, the 2nd window is ALWAYS on top of the main
window, which i do not want
the "always on top" flag of the 2nd window is NOT set.
how do i fix this?
The shortcut behaviour comes QWidget::parentWidget(), while the "keep on
top" comes from QWindow::transientParent().
Since you only want the former, try setting a null transient parent:
secondWindow->windowHandle()->setTransientParent(nullptr);
And let's hope it doesn't unset the parentWidget
