Took me a while to figure this one. In fact you do not create a KDialogBase 
based .ui file. What you must do is create a QWidget based .ui file. In this 
widget (let's call it DialogContent) you include all you need in your dialog, 
except for the bottom button bar (Ok, Apply, Cancel...).
Next in your code you create a class inheriting from KDialogBase and write 
something like this in the constructor:

QVBox* page = makeVBoxMainWidget();
DialogContent* dialogContent = new DialogContent(page);

And you are done.

PS: to avoid double margin effect, remember to set the margin of the 
DialogContent layout to 0.
