QDialog and WGroupLeader Flag

Message 1 in thread

I've asked a similar question on here before regarding the WGroupLeader flag
and QWizard.  I didn't receive a response, however, I finally got it
working.  Here is my current problem...

I have several dialog classes that derive from QDialog.  Each of these has a
button which allows the user to access an html based Help screen.  I want
the QDialog to be modal, but the user should be able to clink on the html
links on the Help Screen if they push the help button.  I have tried using
the WType_TopLevel | WGroupLeader flags which worked with QWizard, but they
are not working for me now.  My code is listed below.
>>>>PropertySheetDialog.cpp

PropertySheetDialog::PropertySheetDialog(const char *caption, const char
*helpID, bool modal, WFlags fl)
 : QDialog(mainWindow, caption, modal, fl )

>>>>

called from another .cpp file

PropertySheetDialog propSheet(Type(), RttiClassName(typeid(*this)), false,
Qt::WType_TopLevel | Qt::WGroupLeader);



Is there a way to allow my user to access the Help while keeping the dialog
modal?

Thanks in advance...
