Hi Bruno,

Are you looking for the toolbar that sits at the top of the tabs and 
jumps up to sit next to the tabs when there is enough space? Qt doesn't 
support this by default so you would have to write your own wigdet for that.

QDockWidgets let you customize the dockwidgets titlebar, using 
setTitleBarWidget:

http://doc.trolltech.com/qtjambi-4.3.1_01/com/trolltech/qt/gui/QDockWidget.html#setTitleBarWidget(com.trolltech.qt.gui.QWidget)

or you can create a "toolbar" under the title by simply adding a widget 
with a horizontal box layout and put tool buttons into it.

best regards,
Gunnar
