    Hello,
    I was able to modify font size and type of a tab with stylesheets according to

    ...
            tabs = QTabWidget()
            tabs.setStyleSheet('''QTabBar::tab {font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: bold;}''')
    

    This works as intended but the problem is that when the content is large, many letters do not even show. I modified the last line as

    tabs.setStyleSheet('''QTabBar::tab {font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: bold; height: 50px; width: 100px;}''')
    

    Here, some tabs look oversized (e.g. "Data") whereas others are still not large enough (e.g. "A very long tag content ..."). I was wondering if there is some easy way to dynamically expand the tag size when the content is large. Thanks.

      The default elide mode for tabs is defined by currently used style, but you can override it:

      tabs.setElideMode(Qt::TextElideMode::ElideNone);
