qlayout

I'm using PySide/PyQt, but this is a general Qt question. Is there a way to set up a QFormLayout so that labels are centered vertically without having to explicitly create the QLabel's and set their vertical size policy to expanding first? When the widget in column 2 is taller than my label, I want my label to be centered vertically with the widget, rather than aligned with it's top... Here's an example script that demonstrates the problem. I've colored the labels red to better demonstrate their size behavior. from PySide import QtCore, QtGui app = QtGui.QApplication([]) widget = QtGui.QWidget

I'm trying to layout a window (all in code) with a QGridLayout . I can add widgets to the layout and they display in my window, but I can't figure out how to resize them properly. Here's what I'd like [Leftmost][--------Center---------][Rightmost] Those are the 3 "panes" of my window (all three of them lists). The left and right ones should be of a static width and hug their respective sides, and the center should expand to fill the width as the window grows (or shrinks). Some code: // Create the subviews, add them to a grid layout, and set the layout to the window. QTableView *list = new

I am trying to make widgets overlap partly in a Qt layout. My current layout is the following, achieved with a QVBoxLayout containing four QHBoxLayout children: I'm trying to regroup cards of the same suit, in order to achieve something like this (note that there is horizontal and vertical overlapping): Unfortunately, all the Qt documentation and all the Stack Overflow posts I have read try to avoid widgets overlapping rather than to seek it. Maybe there's a way to set negative spacing between widgets, or forcing a layout to have a maximum width calculated (e.g. according to the number of

I am working on a Qt Project and for this project I require to design something like this: I have designed so far in Qt Creator and I have the component ready, but when I am trying to add widget in different layouts, I am not getting the shapes I want. What should I do to make my application resizable? Catches: Sidebar has fixed width, which means for horizontal increment of window size the sidebar's horizontal width won't increase. Sidebar itself is a widget. upperbar's vertical width is fixed (if possible). Which means, during vertical window size increment the upperbar can't become

As the layout object has no attribute ".setStyleSheet()", how can one set the background color for a given layout? As a visual explanation, I can set both the label and the button background color, but not the entire layout, which includes the spacer. Programatically, I'm organizing some information in horizontal layouts and displaying them in a frame. I would like to alternate background colors for each loop. for param_name in parameters: hlayouts.append(QtGui.QHBoxLayout()) labels.append(QtGui.QLabel("%s"%param_name)) sliders.append(QtGui.QSpacerItem(10,10,hPolicy=QtGui.QSizePolicy.Expanding

Using the designer in Qt creator I have created a dialog that contains various widgets in a vertical layout. One of the widgets is a QLabel with word wrap set to true. The text for the QLabel is set just before the dialog is shown. The maximum width and height of the QLabel is 16777215, the vertical size policy is set to Expanding and the horizontal is Preferred . I've tried changing changing the size policy. The problem I have is that if the text is large, the QLabel fails to be adjusted accordingly and the text is clipped, like this: - I have tried calling updateGeometry() for the dialog,
