Some GUI bugs

[Rafael Fernández López]

Hi,

I have right now fixed a problem on KDirOperator that I was looking for:
http://media.ereslibre.es/2007/10/kopeteavatar.png (look where the preview 
appears)

And now: http://media.ereslibre.es/2007/10/kopeteavatar2.png

It was a small problem. If the dialog was supposed to start with the preview 
enabled, the preview widget was never added to the splitter. If the dialog 
started without preview support, and it was enabled with the menu, everything 
was correctly done. This fix is committed.

Now, I've found more GUI problems but haven't got so much time to deal with 
them, since they're quite difficult to debug/track and I'm running out of 
time.

- KPropertiesDialog/KPageDialog/KPageWidget combo:

Please notice how borders of the tabs are not drawn. I dedicated some time to 
this issue but no positive results.

- Toolbars/DockWidgets: I started a thread previously with this issue and 
still have no result. I've been dealing with it couple hours and it seems the 
bug is in Qt, more specifically, probably:

bool QDockAreaLayoutInfo::restoreState(QDataStream &stream, 
QList<QDockWidget*> &widgets)

and

bool QToolBarAreaLayout::restoreState(QDataStream &stream, const 
QList<QToolBar*> &_toolBars)

or something related. I'd define it as "the way the dock/toolbar is 
artificially detached is somehow wrong".

This one can be done with this steps:
1. Open dolphin
2. Detach a dock widget
3. Close dolphin
4. Open dolphin

Now you get a beautiful widget (you can grab it with Alt+Click, even it will 
react to your clicks where there is supposed to be buttons), but it is 
a "transparent" widget, that when you grab it it took a "snapshot" where it 
started.


So, please, if you find/commit something related to this bugs, let me know.
