QTabWidget: How to display labels over multiple rows?

[Sprezzatura]

Is it possible to display the tab labels of a QTabWidget over multiple rows, instead of having scroll buttons?

Like this:

I've scrutinized the documentation, can't find a function of property that sets this option.

I've looked at "Customizing QTabWidget", but that seems like a lot of work for such a common requirement.

There is a Stackoverflow post from five years ago, surely Qt has advanced since?

Hi
Nope , it cant. Sure Qt has progressed a lot but that type of massive
tabWidget are not really in demand as its considered
horrible UX for the end user.

So in most cases a Listwidget + a StackedWidget provides a more
elegant and user friendly experience compare to multirow tabs.
(2 is not so bad. MS had some with 4-5 levels :)

That said, its been requested way back
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-22487
and you can vote for it.

OK, I will investigate the StackedWidget approach. At least I know I didn't miss something.

I have voted on it.

Thanks.
