I tried that example its working,but for my cases its not working.
i placed the stackwidget inside Qscrollarea,when i move to 2nd page in stackwidget i need the scroll bar.
Just i tried simple dialog with 10 labels.Steps are

place teh qscrollArea in dialog
then added the stackwidget and placed 10 labels in first page alone
Minimize the dialog so that only 5 labels are visible

Then in coding i set as ui.scrollarea->setwidget(ui.stackwidget)
but its not working. what am doing wrong?
can u please guide me?
