<![CDATA[[SOLVED] Problem with mainLayout of Dialog.]]>I have a problem with the mainLayout. I have this:

@ optionsGroupBox = new QGroupBox();
optionsGroupBoxLayout = new QGridLayout;
optionsGroupBoxLayout->addWidget(ui->label, 0,0);
optionsGroupBoxLayout->addWidget(ui->comboBox, 0,1);
optionsGroupBoxLayout->addWidget(ui->label_2, 1,0);
optionsGroupBoxLayout->addWidget(ui->lineEdit, 1,1);
optionsGroupBoxLayout->addWidget(ui->label_3, 2,0);
optionsGroupBoxLayout->addWidget(ui->lineEdit_2, 2,1);
optionsGroupBoxLayout->addWidget(ui->pushButton_3, 2,2);

optionsGroupBox->setLayout(optionsGroupBoxLayout);

buttonsLayout = new QHBoxLayout;
buttonsLayout->addStretch();
buttonsLayout->addWidget(ui->pushButton_2);
buttonsLayout->addWidget(ui->pushButton);

mainLayout = new QVBoxLayout;
mainLayout->addWidget(optionsGroupBox);
mainLayout->addLayout(buttonsLayout);
setLayout(mainLayout);@

and it looks like:

but i want it look like:

So the question
What about the space up from the button Browze.. How can it be covered from the above linedit? ( See second screenshot )
Thanks for any answers :)

P.S When i say the space up from the button Browze i mean:

The word is "Browse", not "Browze". You also might want to check if you really want to say "Nami".

@
optionsGroupBoxLayout->addWidget(ui->comboBox, 0,1,1,2);
optionsGroupBoxLayout->addWidget(ui->lineEdit, 1,1,1,2);
@
Will do the trick.

The bit I added above should do the trick. Note, however, that the space available to position (2,1) in the grid (where we're adding the new layout) will be divided equally between the line edit and the Browse button, i.e. they'll be the same size. You may have to play around with constraints a bit to get your ratio of QLineEdit::QPushButton space usage just right.
