[solved] Designer in Qt Creator - Getting rid of the centralWidget?
-
I am currently back trying my hand at coding a Qt Gui App but am having problems with this newer version of Qt Creator I don't remember having before.
In previous version when choosing a Qt GUI Application (Widget based) I would choose to have a blank MainWindow when creating the project. This was great as in the designer I could then use a QVBoxLayout which would fill the main window in order to layout the widgets I wanted (assuming of course that my memory is sound).
Now I am confronted with a handful of widgets selected for me which doesn't let me use layouts like I could before. I can delete all the widgets except for the centralWidget. Is there any way to get rid of this widget or revert to the previous behaviour?

This sounds like you started your design with a QMainWindow this time while you used a QWidget as a base before.

Actually after some research I may have been thinking of MonoDevelop designer so my bad.
What I basically want to achieve is add a QDeclarativeView to the app and have it fill the available space (i.e. space that isn't given over to menu & status bars) - any advice on that?
