    Hi
    It sets the Items Height.
    Just make all items bigger and dropdown also be bigger.
    Sample just sets item 0,0. you need set on all items.

      Just adjust to what u want
      QSize(100, 100) is the size. 100 width, 100 height

      But the width of the drop-down is the width of the combo itself

        @mrjj I don't want to increase the size of header combo box . Becaue i am using combobox as a button in my ui viewer. So, I can't set button size this much. I want the combo Box like this 0_1536056909807_DDfinal.png

          ok.
          you need to subclass for that i think.
          https://forum.qt.io/topic/30405/how-to-change-qcombobox-popup-width

          Alternatively, you canuse toolbutton and QMenu.

              I dont know what u mean.
              Link talks about overriding showPopup to alter size.
              That should do it.

                      In what way did it not work for you ?
                      Seems to work as expected.
                      alt text

                      class WideComboBox : public QComboBox
                      {
                          Q_OBJECT
                      public:
                          explicit WideComboBox(QWidget *parent = nullptr) : QComboBox(parent) {};
                          ~WideComboBox() {}
                      public:
                          void showPopup() {
                              this->view()->setMinimumWidth(this->view()->sizeHintForColumn(0));
                              QComboBox::showPopup();
                          }
                      };
                      
                      

                      setting it to 400 ;)

                        Additionally to what @mrjj wrote, you should also be able to set the size of the view via a StyleSheet, a viable option if you don't plan to vary the size all to often

                        ui->comboBox->setStyleSheet("QComboBox QAbstractItemView {min-width: 400px;}"),

                                @amarism I don't think you can do that via the StyleSheet. My guess would be to subclass QComboBox and override the paintEvent and ignore the Qt::DecorationRole !?
