QMainWindow already has layout. So you can't set it. You can use the QMainWIndow directly and set the centralWidget holder in QMainWindow as using this.setCentralWidget(listWidget).
Any reason you are inhering from QMainWindow ?

oh thanks , i didn't know that, i must re read the part about using QMainWindow to layout widgets again :) thanks,
anyway
i use it to be able to use status bar and menu bar:)
btw my widgets wont scale when i make my window bigger or ect, i used rename->move(x,y); to put them in place !
-
is there anyway i can use Menubar with QWidgets (and use these layouts)?
-
You are using the ListWidget and MainWinow in Layout ? You can put the ListWidget directly in the centralwidget of MainWindow. Does it not solve your issue ?
To answer your question QMenuBar is also Widget. So you can put the QMenuBar and Your widget in any layout.

You can modify the constructor like the following. You will be all set.
@ListWidget::ListWidget(QWidget *parent)
: QMainWindow(parent)
{
startTimer(500);
....................
....................
hbox->addWidget(lw);
hbox->addSpacing(5);
hbox->addLayout(vbox);
QWidget *wid = new QWidget;
wid->setLayout(hbox);
this->setCentralWidget(wid);
...............
..................
//setLayout(hbox);}@

:o smart. :D i just have to practice some things more, i didnt get some parts right, thanks so much, i didnt get the Qframe right, dont know what it is and what it used for, tutorial had no explains ! also not sure what a QWidget And main window class is, i thought QWidget is the window that shows my widgets
