That’s kind of what I figured out . What I wound up doing, was setting elide mode to none on the view, then doing a resize of each column to fit, then resizing the dialog so the treeview is the correct size, then setting textmode back to elide right.
This way, if the customer resizes, it will still elide, but it comes up without.

(I must be) > > Scott There is no need for QTreeView to calculate a sizeHint for the entire tree, because, well, it is a scrollview :) And calculating a sizeHint would also mean that the view has to update layouts when data that influences the sizeHint changes, and that would be quite expensive (the view does have to do at least some of that anyway to adjust the scrollbars, but since scrolling is “per row” rather than “per pixel”, we can optimize that a lot; see QTreeViewPrivate::updateScrollBars()). I think the best you can do is to get the visualRect of the last index, and then calculate the view’s sizeHint based on that. That means that the tree has to be fully expanded.
