Formatting Object in Form Layout

@kshegunov same thing: AlignLeft, AlignVCenter.

I wonder if it's because you have the label that is currently wrapping. For the sake of testing, can you change the text to one word to see if it changes anything ?

[mzimmers]

Tried it...no change.

[SGaist]

Since it's a designer created widget, would it be possible to post the source of that widget so we can take a look at it ? I'm running out of ideas.

Thanks for looking...

[SGaist]

Sorry but I have a 404 error for that link.

[mzimmers]

Odd...so do I now. Let's try again with another host:

Worked !

But it's requiring IpSource which is rightfully missing

[mzimmers]

Here's ipsource.ui:

Making it IpSource a simple QWidget with the two radio buttons in a vertical layout from which your put all margins to 0 seems to do the trick.

[mzimmers]

Yes it does. That's kind of wild.

I'm not quite sure what this says about the QFrame and QGroupBox classes, but I guess the answer is not to use either inside a grid if you care about your spacing.

Anyway, thanks for chasing this down.

It may be that they add spacing for a title label (at least the group box should) or there's some margin set which isn't apparent from the designer. In any case @SGaist's advice is valid - use QWidgets as placeholders in 95% of cases.
