Fixed optimal size of QTableView when rows and columns count never change

[charlesfleche]

I'm developing an editor for a a piece of hardware and presenting some parameters as two QTableView. The rows and columns count never change for each table, but one table has 4 columns, the other 3.

These table should never be resized when the window is resized: another widget will grow (a list a presets), as a space below the tables. The width of the right section of the UI should be driven by the top QTableView (the one with 4 columns).

Here is what I have now:

And this what I'd like to obtain:

1. How can I specify that the QTableView geometries should never change after being optimally sized ?

2. Is there a way to tell the bottom QTableView (the one with 3 columns) to equally size the columns to fill the available space ?

Many thanks !

tableView->setSizeAdjustPolicy(QAbstractScrollArea::AdjustToContents);
tableView->setSizePolicy(QSizePolicy::Preferred, QSizePolicy::Maximum);

tableView->horizontalHeader()->setSectionResizeMode(QHeaderView::Stretch);

You can do all the above even in desinger.
You'll have to put a QSpacerItem below the second table

@VRonin Pefect ! I had to fight a bit with the spacer on the Midi channel row, but apart from that, you were spot on. Many thanks !
