Hi, i'm not sure anymore if this would be the best way to go. The background painting would also have to be duplicated and everything would become a bit complicated. I asked myself if it would be a good idea to have a stupid container widget in the expanded parent group normally which only contains the child taskGroupItem. So normally everything would stay the same exept there is an addtional widget between expanded parent and the collapsed child group. If we want to show the popup we can simply remove the taskgroupItem from it's container widget, which serves now as a spacekeeper, and place it offscreen. Then we can show it in a dialog as popup and we can have D&D and background etc. for free. Since i'm totally unexperienced with such stuff it would be nice if someone could tell me if this could work or rather not.
