<![CDATA[Making window as compact as possible?]]>Hello, is there an option somewhere that makes a QMainWindow as compact as possible? I created a window that always uses more space that it needs to, and I was wondering if Qt could handle the minimization of the window for me.

Thanks a lot!

mainWindow->resize( mainWindow->layout()->minimumSize() );

If u use layouts, then settings size
of mainwindow will make it as small as possible.
So what you expect such minimization to do?
