Still having issues with Controlling the margin/Padding in a QGridLayout

musimbate

Hi all,
I am trying to stack a bunch of Toolbuttons inside a Widget so I can insert the widget in a toolbar.But I am getting margins or paddings that are not desired.I have tried setMargin on the Layout to no avail .Also I have tried to give the widget a fixed height and they unacceptably shrunk!Following is my code:
@
QAction * a = fileMenu->addAction("AAA");QToolButton * but1=new QToolButton(this);
but1->addAction(a);

QToolButton * but2=new QToolButton(this);
but1->addAction(b);

QToolButton * but3=new QToolButton(this);
but1->addAction(c);

QToolButton * but4=new QToolButton(this);
but1->addAction(d);

QGridLayout *mLayout=new QGridLayout(this);

mLayout->addWidget(but1,0,0);
mLayout->addWidget(but2,0,1);
mLayout->addWidget(but3,1,0);
mLayout->addWidget(but4,1,1);

QWidget *mWidget=new QWidget(this);
mWidget->setLayout(mLayout);

ui->mainToolBar->insertWidget(a,mWidget);
ui->mainToolBar->setMovable(false);@

Any help would be appreciated.Thanks

did you try settings the "margins":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qlayout.html#getContentsMargins and "spacing":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qgridlayout.html#setSpacing the correct way?

Thanks ravin-worx,I kind of had missed that.Setting the spacing solved my problem.

Hi guys,
I have used the above code to build a toolbar but I am getting unwanted margins in my toolbar.The toolbar I am getting can be seen here": http://www.blikoon.com/?attachment_id=1537 .I want to get rid of the spaces in between .I have used setContentMargins and setSpacing and no luck so far.

I am using Qt 4.8.1 and some of my google searches pointed out that this might be a bug in the Qt libraries.Does anybody know any workaround on this?It would really help.
Thanks.
