Some questions regarding visual components (widgets).
-
- I failed to find a component like SplitContainer in Visual Studio.
- I failed to find a Dock property that allows to a child component stretch with a parent component - left, right, all.

Thank you. How can I put this bunch of the code in my project? It says - Open the ads.pro with QtCreator and start the build, that's it. Then what? Do I get any dll? Another point - my app should run on Linux - it supports Ubuntu 19.10 and Kubuntu 18.04 and Kubuntu 19.10. But my app runs on Debian lower version.

Hi
What does a split container do ?
There is QSlitter that can divide a widget into 2 resizeable parts.
But since i dont know the VS version its hard to recommend how to get same effect.

Can not say anything about QSlitter - I don't see it in the visual components tab.

I'm shocked a little bit. I'm stuck at simple things, afraid to look further...

Hi
That really sounds like a QSplitter.
Try select 2 widgets and right-click, from the layout sub menu, you can choose a splitter.
That will place the selected widgets in a layout that allows resizing the 2 parts.

dock components,
Hi
What do you mean by that ?
The only dockable widges are DockWidgets that can both float as windows and be embedded
into a widget/form. However it can contain any other widget you want.Any widget can be embedded into any widget using layouts but im not sure if you mean that by
dock components ?

The same goes for the components on the tab - they should resize along with the tab.

Take a look at Qt Layout Management

Take a look at Qt Layout Management
I think it refers to Qt Quick Application where I create the visual components in my program. In my case - Qt Widget Application - can't grasp it - how can apply this layout to my widgets I drag from the components tab?

Same. Please read about following the link provided by @mrjj
You can set layouts programmatically or do it via designer. Once everything is set properly you will get what you need (from the designer you can test using tools -> form editor -> preview.

No, the link is correct for QtWidgets.
