Problem I have a mainwindow. There I can choose a spezific file and show its data in a subwindow with predefined size.
If I go back to the mainwindow and resize it, the subwindow automaticly changes its size to the same of the mainwindow.
How can I prevent this?
It`s not clear whether you are referring to "subwindows" in the X sense -- that is, a child window which will be clipped by its parent -- or in another sense -- for example, a supplementary window which is a top-level window in its own right. If the former, the behavior you see may be normal, as child windows -- widgets, in this case -- have their geometries changed as the parent changes, according to the rules of the widgets which make up the interface.
What are the widget types of the parent window and the child windows?
This will help us answer you question.
