Qt: QVBoxLayout - hitting height limitations?

[ronM71]

I add height=30 widgets to the QVBoxLayout. They all look fine, correct height. however, around 550 widgets, they start to condense, with height getting shorter and shorter although i explicitly submit:

@ widget->setSizePolicy(QSizePolicy::Expanding, QSizePolicy::Fixed);
widget->setMaximumHeight(30);
widget->setMinimumHeight(30);
myVBoxLayout->addWidget(widget);
@

Am I hitting a hard QVBoxLayout limit around 16,000 pixels of total content height? how to I order it to stop condensing my widgets?

Yes, I was hitting a limit:

@this->container->setMaximumHeight(myNewLimit);@

where container is the widget the QVBoxLayout applies to. The container is also managed by a QScrollArea.

This took care of the sudden hight condensation problem when reaching a threshold of x widgets in the layout.
