Hiho,

I kind of have a very specific case to deal with (Qt5, Widgets, QtDesigner in 
QtCreator):

I have a custom widget (A) in the QtDesigner in QtCreator that I can add, 
modify, and remove there, storing works as well.
It has its own QDesignerTaskMenuExtension, that allows to open an extra dialog, 
where a bunch of Q_PROPERTY entries are handled (works as well), and stored 
after dialog close.
That widget shall now get an option to dynamically create/remove helper widgets 
(B) that shall be stored as children of A.
These B widgets are custom widgets too, but are not part of the QtDesigner 
widget box, although they shall be stored in the ui file too (seems to be 
possible: 
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/designer-creating-custom-widgets.html#notes-on-the-domxml-function).

In my dialog of A, where I modify the “normal” Q_PROPERTYs I now create these 
Bs, and want to add them as children of A in the ui file.
Although added as actual children of A (simply calling setParent, in gdb I see 
that they are registered correctly), I fail to store them in the ui file.
I get my formwindow and cursor to set/reset the properties, but that 
information never reaches the ui file.

I sincerely hope and appreciate that anyone here could give me some hints about 
my topic,
Many thanks in advance,

Cheers,
Jakob

P.S.: as far as I understand the documentation, A is not a container in 
QtDesigner sense 
(https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qdesignercustomwidgetinterface.html#isContainer), since 
that one is used for being able to use layouts and such.
Additionally it is not a custom container like 
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qdesignercontainerextension.html#addWidget, since these 
helper widgets are not pages, but represent dynamical sets of extra properties, 
that shall be added/removed as needed during design time. They have no paint 
events, but have other jobs to do.
