qtoolbutton/qpushbutton icon based on button's size

@mrjj
i managed to do that but i want to remove all spaces between buttons.
i've set setContentsMargins(0, 0, 0, 0) and setSpacing(0) for the layout.
this is what i have now: https://ibb.co/qYCm8vR
can't i remove those spaces?

Hi
The tool buttons seems to reserve some pixels so there will be a small space.

The lower ones are Frames and both layouts have same settings so its fair to say
its the closest you get with ToolButtons as seen in top.

hi,
when i add the buttons to a layout, they take up more space (just because it's available).
how can i make the buttons be in their minimum size in that layout?

p.s. this is what i have set for the button:

setMinimumSize(...);
setSizePolicy(QSizePolicy::Minimum, QSizePolicy::Minimum);

@user4592357
But would would be the minimum ?
You can set setMaximumSize of them if you want to limit it to
certain size. like 64x64. else layout makes them use the extra space.

@mrjj
no i don't want max size...
i thought i could add a spacer at column 0 and last column, and set stretch factor to those columns

@user4592357
im not sure i understand.
You do not want a max size for widgets but at same time they are not allowed to use
all the space ?
well yes spacers should compress to minimum

[user4592357]

yes maybe that's weird but that's what i need.
when i added the spacer at col 0, and then the rest of the widgets, only the first widget got added.

@user4592357
Im not sure what you mean . Adding cant fail due to spacer.
did you set Minimum on the widgets as else they get compressed totally.

with no Minimum set

[user4592357]

i added spacers at both ends of hbox layout, but now the whole container widget gets larger instead of the buttons getting smaller (since there is a spacer around them)...

Hi
Its impossible to guess at with no code or pictures.
If i do the same with Horz layout i get this
