QTableView reduce row height not working

[gde23]

Hello,
I've a QTableView and I have set the Fontsize for the items to be really small, eg 5pt.
Now I also want to shrink the row height, however it is not working.
I can increase it but not decrease. Seems like there is some lower limit somewhere.

What I've tried is

• setRowHeight(); for all rows

• resizeRowToContents(); for all rows

• settings vertical header spacing
  verticalHeader()->setDefaultSectionSize(5);
  verticalHeader()->sectionResizeMode(QHeaderView::Fixed);

• setting sizeHint for the items.

None of those methods is working. What am I missing?

I think you have to set verticalHeader()->setMinimumSectionSize(int size), https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qheaderview.html#minimumSectionSize-prop.

That is correct as it won't go smaller than this value.
