Layout of custom widgets in uic code
Message 1 in thread
I have been trying to use custom widgets in Qt Designer. It all works
fine except for the fact that all sublayouts of a widget are instead made
to be sublayouts of a 'privateLayoutWidget' by designer. When you resize
the widget, this private layout widget (and hence all the sublayouts)
doesn't get resized along with it.
If I were writing this by hand, all instances of privateLayoutWidget would
be replaced with 'this', and if you do that (search and replace the
generated .cpp -- actually, the .py, but I checked that uic generates
equivalent code to pyuic from PyQt), it works as expected -- when you
resize the widget, everything inside it resizes appropriately.
What should I be doing to either a) get privateLayoutWidget to resize
along with the widget, or b) stop privateLayoutWidget existing in the
first place?
Thanks for any help

If you select the widgets in Designer and click on the button that
creates a layout for them, this will also create the layoutWidget. If
instead you *de*select everything (i.e., select the underlying window)
and click that button, it will create a layout with this window as
parent.
Hope this helps,
Arne

Oops. Thanks.
