how to set columnWidth correctly without having to use StretchMethods on a QTableView

[aftalib]

@Christian-Ehrlicher i tried it but SetStretchLastSection overrides resizeSection() : no matter if i put interactive, stretch or fixed, the last section is still wider than the other ones when i stretch it .

[Christian Ehrlicher]

Then don't use setStretchLastSection

@Christian-Ehrlicher but if i do so my cells wont fill my QTableView

That's why I said 'Then you have to adjust your others accordingly after the resize.'

@Christian-Ehrlicher yes that's what i want to do but i dont really know how to do this with the available functions

What are you missing? Getting the size of the view? How you resize a section was already answered:

What's wrong with QHeaderView::resizeSection()?

[aftalib]

here's what happens when i set resizeSection() to interactive :

i have worse or even results with Stretch or Fixed.

to get the size of the view i do : QRect rect2 = ui->tableView->frameGeometry();

is this correct ?

thank you for taking the time to answer me

my solution was to set the maximum width of each of my tableviews by the number of the future columns plus the vertical header width, the problem is when i stretch the window the last tableview is going away on the right as you can see here :

and i have no explanation for this to happen. each of these tableviews have the exact same settings

@aftalib if anyone knows where the issue from my previous screen comes from i'd be very happy to know, this is the only thing getting in my way..

hello, posting as a last hope..

[n-2204]

you can make fixed size , setcolumn size
ui.tableView_1->setColumnWidth(4, 130);
ui.tableView_1->setColumnWidth(3, 110);
ui.tableView_1->setColumnWidth(2, 120);
ui.tableView_1->setColumnWidth(1, 120);
ui.tableView_1->setColumnWidth(0, 120);
Are you using layout for tables in mainwindow?

[aftalib]

@n-2204 yes i am using layouts which i why i am afraid this wont work

[aftalib]

here is what i did in order to set the size of my tableviews :

where nbOfAnt/2 is the number of elements that are going to be in my table view
