When I use the QT creator application preview, it shows the preview via alt+shift+r precisely like the widget designer. When I compile and run the program via ctrl+r, the compiled app shows a window wider than the window and widgets designed in the designer. How can I solve this issue?

I would guess there is something in your layout which expands the window. Simplify the ui file until the widget does no longer expand during runtime and/or remove all stuff which modifies the ui to find out what happens.

As you see the preview window is smaller than the compiled window. the preview window is the same size as the preview window. the compiled window is larger than those two.

I'm on Windows 11. along with QT 6.4.1 and QtCreator 10.0.0You show an empty widget but now talk about other stuff - please be precise!
Did you set the window size in the designer? Do oyu use layouts?
Also remember that the QtCreator might use another style than the one used when you start your app (When you select 'Preview' in QtCreator you can select the style) -

Here is one image with some widgets. As you said Qt can use the style in the preview. How can I select that?
And moreover, I wanted the compiled one to be the same as this preview. In this picture, I have used no layouts. I have set the window size and maximum size.

Apart from the window size which might also change due to some coding later on I don't see a difference in the layout. Just another style as I already told you.

As you see the span size of widgets is larger. Check the distance of the button text with its border.
So how can I make the compile layout like the preview layout? Where are the settings placed (I mean the address to the settings)? -
