Probably not. The code snippet might be a bad example. I am attempting to create a QFrame in the MainWindow and populate it with a number of pairs of lQLabel/QLineEdit. One of the "pairs" needs to be a QLabel/QTextEdit and unfortunately as soon as I add that the grid seems to 'explode' - in the vertical direction. I just want a QTextEdit sized about 3 or 4 times the height of a QLineEdit.
Thanks for the suggestion Peter On Thu, Sep 9, 2010 at 1:58 PM, Algis Kabaila <akaba...@pcug.org.au> wrote: > On Thursday 09 September 2010 13:03:14 Peter Milliken wrote: > > I cannot work out how to (re)size a QTextEdit widget.
