Dynamically grow a widget into negative values.

[JoeJoe_000]

Hello the following code will do a pretty good job at growing a widget dynamically; that has been placed in a QScrolArea object, using setMinimumSize(). However this is probably not the best solution to do this and isn't a solution at all to grow the widget in a negative fashion thus increasing space in my upper and left regions.

to Give more information when I drag a widget in a parent widget that is housed in the QScroll Area, I want my parent widget geometry to grow in a negative direction (top and left) and have my QScrollArea increase in negative amounts.

   QPoint TL = aCustomWidget->pos();
   int widthCord = TL.x() + aCustomWidget->width();
   int heightCord = TL.y() + aCustomWidget->height();
   QPoint BR(widthCord, heightCord);
   if(BR.x() > this->width()-10 || BR.y() > this->height()-10) 
   {
       QRect oldGeo = this->geometry();
       this->setGeometry(oldGeo.x(), oldGeo.y(), oldGeo.width()+5, oldGeo.height()+5); 
       int sizerX = abs(this->x())+this->width();
       int sizerY = abs(this->y())+this->height();
       setMinimumSize(sizerX, sizerY)
 }
