    I'm shocked a little bit. I'm stuck at simple things, afraid to look further...

      Hi
      That really sounds like a QSplitter.
      Try select 2 widgets and right-click, from the layout sub menu, you can choose a splitter.
      That will place the selected widgets in a layout that allows resizing the 2 parts.

        Thanks a lot. It works good. The same way should be option to dock components, shouldn't it? can not find...

          dock components,

          Hi
          What do you mean by that ?
          The only dockable widges are DockWidgets that can both float as windows and be embedded
          into a widget/form. However it can contain any other widget you want.

          Any widget can be embedded into any widget using layouts but im not sure if you mean that by
          dock components ?

            I have a tabWidget on a MainWindow. When I resize the MainWindow, make it bigger, the tabWidget stays the same size, it looks ugly. I want it to stretch along with the MainWindow.

            The same goes for the components on the tab - they should resize along with the tab.

                I think it refers to Qt Quick Application where I create the visual components in my program. In my case - Qt Widget Application - can't grasp it - how can apply this layout to my widgets I drag from the components tab?

                  Same. Please read about following the link provided by @mrjj
                  You can set layouts programmatically or do it via designer. Once everything is set properly you will get what you need (from the designer you can test using tools -> form editor -> preview.

                  For more information please re-read.
