QHBoxLayout not working properly

[Batyu]

I have a very simple code:

m_HBoxLayout = new QHBoxLayout(parent);
m_VBoxLayout = new QVBoxLayout(parent);
m_ProfilePicture = new QLabel("PFP", parent);
m_SlabName = new QLabel("Name", parent);
m_StatusMessage = new QLabel("Status", parent);
m_HBoxLayout->addWidget(m_ProfilePicture);
m_VBoxLayout->addWidget(m_SlabName);
m_VBoxLayout->addWidget(m_StatusMessage);
m_HBoxLayout->addLayout(m_VBoxLayout);

This is how it looks like after i run it:

Can somebody tell me what have I missed?
I want it to look like something like this:

Hi,

@Batyu said in QHBoxLayout not working properly:

m_HBoxLayout = new QHBoxLayout(parent);
m_VBoxLayout = new QVBoxLayout(parent);

Passing a parent to a layout automatically applies the layout to the parent.
