Active resizing of widgets inside mainwindow

[petergeng]

I have a few widgets in a main window. i want the user to be able to resize the widgets inside the window as they please, just like how one would resize the main window. Do I have to make a layout container to enable this? or ....layout? Buh the layout contains are static once the window is rendered.

You mean that you want to resize with mouse inside widgets of the mainwindow, like for QToolBox ? Or you want only to make bigger the mainwindow when a separation is moved ?

I am not very sure about your question, but you are correct in using layout and can add QSplitter to offer resizing the widgets horizontally or vertically.

Manual resizing of widgets by the user are possible, if you use splitters as containers, or if you use dock widgets. Otherwise you must implement it by hand.
