Hi Franck. I'm trying to achieve this too, however my findChildren() function returns an empty list. How did you "register" the panel originally?

And using setCurrentWidget is easier than using the index as well. I don't seem to need stacked_widget.activateWindow() though. Nice one, thanks Matthieu!
