First, I would consider using SplitView. If that's not an option, I'm curious why you want to use a layout, and which of its features you want. Specifically, I'm curious to know what behavior you expect when a handle is resized. Should it redistribute all items to the left and all items to the right of the handle? Then, it's really two layouts (one layout on each side of the handle) that you would have to temporarily create and destroy each time a handle is dragged.
It sounds quite complex, and I'm not sure if you want to go that route, since it would involve injecting layouts in the hierarchy, setting temporary implicit sizes on all items to not cause sudden jumps when starting a drag. At this point I cannot see a clean and simple solution to this, and I don't want to speculate further unless you are really convinced ;) Jan Arve > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On > Behalf Of Mark Gaiser > Sent: 27. februar 2014 03:01 > To: Qt Interest > Subject: [Interest] Row(Layout), use spacing as resize handle.
