Written under running X server @ CentOS 7 with qt4 libraries.

Compiled for Centos 7 using personal computer (pc) with Qt Creator 4.1.0
Compiled for SUSE distribution using pc with Qt Creator 4.6.1

With personal operating method managing graphic units, here can test some programs for 
X Windows system using, into Xephyr with commands,
twm
openbox
mvm
fvwm
i3

For browser Firefox,
testing using taskset 

Open and close displays with toggle buttons
Select display with horizontal slider for send commands.

This  program is tested in 1080p screen panning 4300x2620,
so main X server bitmap containing nested server graphic units is
4300x2620
xrandr command:
xrandr --output HDMI1 --mode 1920x1080 --panning 4300x2620

---
This program run in Linux Operating System initialized reaching run level 4.
This run fine if isn't nested to any user operating method layer pack of software.
This program isn't tested over X server main bitmap running as window of host
operating system [like host - window (as graphic "hole" of host O.S.) - 
virtual machine or other sometimes named "sub-system"].
With asterisk and your pointer device, in standard output over X server bitmap, you can
move visual graphic unit standard input interface.

----
Centos 7 qt4 quick install
yum install qt-config qt-creator qt-devel
----
X server generic quickstart:
In run level 4, after operating system initialization reached multi user target,
start X server from root e.g. so:
# X :0
Then, login as user and type, e.g. xterm or qtcreator or your program
$ DISPLAY=:0 xterm &
----
Quick start for this program (# as root, $ as user):
From a terminal (having reached run level 4)
# X :0
From another terminal
$ DISPLAY=:0 xterm -e '/yourpath/centos-Xephyrman-Desktop-Release/Xephyrman/Xephyrman' &
or
$ DISPLAY=:0 xterm &
$ chvt 2 //2 or where X server is running
$ /yourpath/centos-Xephyrman-Desktop-Release/Xephyrman/Xephyrman //inside xterm
