Show QSplitter child widgets titlebar - qt

When I add QWidget to QSplitter, header/title bar of the child widget gets hidden automatically. is there a way to show it ??
Ex:
QSplitter* sp = new QSplitter();
QWidget* wid = new QWidget();
wid->setWindowTitle("Mytitle);
sp->addWidget(wid);
In this case wid title bar gets hidden automatically, I want to show it.

Can we shift widget between the cells of a table widget

I've created a a widget in which I've placed two buttons using a layout and placed it inside a table widget's cell. The thing is that I'm changing the size of the table and I want to shift the placement of the widget without deleting them and re-initializing them from the beginning because I already assigned them actions on click (I think that the application would crash in this situation)
Code:
btn = new QPushButton[horzHeaders.size()];
btn[j].setParent(ui->tableWidget);
btn[j].setIcon(QIcon("./save.png"));
btn[j].setVisible(true);
btn_Load = new QPushButton[horzHeaders.size()];
btn_Load[j].setParent(ui->tableWidget);
btn_Load[j].setIcon(QIcon("./upload.png"));
btn_Load[j].setVisible(true);
lay = new QHBoxLayout[horzHeaders.size()];
lay[j].addWidget(&btn[j]);
lay[j].addWidget(&btn_Load[j]);
QWidget *w = new QWidget[horzHeaders.size()];
w[j].setLayout(&lay[j]);
ui->tableWidget->setCellWidget(j,vertHeaders.size() - 1, &w[j]);
You can add and remove widgets from a layout anytime you want
QWidget *widget = new QWidget();
QPushButton *button = new QPushButton();
QHBoxLayout *Hbox = new QHBoxLayout();
QVBoxLayout *Vbox= new QVBoxLayout();
Hbox->addWidget(button);
// use it till the window is resized
//and then check with an if-statement if the window is resized or not
Hbox->removeWidget(button); // remove from the button from layout
layout()->removeAt(widget); //remove the widget's current layout
Vbox->addWidget(button); // add button widget to vertical layout
widget->setLayout(Vbox); // Give it a new layout
widget->setLayout(Vbox);
If this didn't answer your question then ask in the comments.

QWidgetAction spills over menu icon column

Using Qt 4.8.2, on Windows.
I'm putting user information in a QWidgetAction for a drop-down menu. But the QWidgetAction's widget is spilling over the left column where action icons are normally displayed:
Here's the code:
QMenu *menu = new QMenu;
QIcon icon(...);
QLabel *iconLabel = new QLabel;
iconLabel->setPixmap(icon.pixmap(32, 32)); // XXX what size?
QLabel *userName = new QLabel("user name");
QLabel *userEmail = new QLabel("Rfoo#bar.com");
// Layouts
QVBoxLayout* vbox = new QVBoxLayout();
vbox->addWidget(userName);
vbox->addWidget(userEmail);
QHBoxLayout* hbox = new QHBoxLayout;
hbox->addWidget(iconLabel);
hbox->addLayout(vbox);
// container widget
QWidget* widget = new QWidget;
widget->setLayout(hbox);
// Widget Action
QWidgetAction* widgetAction = new QWidgetAction(menu);
widgetAction->setDefaultWidget(widget);
menu->addAction(widgetAction);
menu->addSeparator();
menu->addAction("P....... P.......");
menu->addSeparator();
menu->addAction("Sign Out");
If I remove the pixmap from the widget and set it as the QWidgetAction's icon, the widget still spills over the left column and the icon is not displayed.
I'd like to figure out one of these solutions:
keep the QWidgetAction from spilling into the menu's icon column
set the QWidgetAction's icon and have it displayed in the icon column
remove the menu's icon column completely
Thanks

QTabWidget does not respect spacing from layout

I have this test case:
// Scroll
QScrollArea *sa = new QScrollArea(ui->centralWidget);
sa->setWidgetResizable( true );
// Layout for widgets
QVBoxLayout *vl_2 = new QVBoxLayout();
vl_2->setSpacing(0);
// Widget to attach the scroll to and the layout
QWidget *widget = new QWidget()
widget->setLayout(vl_2);
sa->setWidget(widget);
// Test widgets
QComboBox *cb_1 = new QComboBox();
QComboBox *cb_2 = new QComboBox();
vl_2->addWidget( cb_1 );
vl_2->addWidget( cb_2 );
And the widgets have 0 space between them.
But if I add them to a QTabWdiget, it all breaks as if QTabWidget does not respect the set setSpacing(0);.
// TabWidget
QTabWidget *run_results = new QTabWidget(ui->centralWidget);
run_results->resize( this->size().width() -20, this->size().height() -80 );
run_results->show();
// Scroll
QScrollArea *sa = new QScrollArea(ui->centralWidget);
sa->setWidgetResizable( true );
// Layout for widgets
QVBoxLayout *vl_2 = new QVBoxLayout();
vl_2->setSpacing(0);
// Widget to attach the scroll to and the layout
QWidget *widget = new QWidget()
widget->setLayout(vl_2);
sa->setWidget(widget);
// Add the scroll to as the TabWidget tab.
run_results->addTab(sa, "test");
// Test widgets
QComboBox *cb_1 = new QComboBox();
QComboBox *cb_2 = new QComboBox();
vl_2->addWidget( cb_1 );
vl_2->addWidget( cb_2 );
Anyone know what I need to do to force QTabWidget to not resize and move my widgets so that they take all the space?
I tried to add Qt::AlignTop to the addWdiget but it did nothing other than place the first widget at the top and the next in the middle of the screen.
I understand where I went wrong.
In the first case I add my scrollarea as a sub-widget to the centralwidget. In the second example I add the scrollarea as the centralwidget which expands it to the whole tabwidget.
I resolved the second case by first adding a holder QWidget as the tabwidget and then adding the scrollarea as a sub-widget to it.

Adding QGraphicsView and QGraphicsScene to a label in Qt

I have a stacked widget on which I have a QLabel. I display an image on this label. I want to zoom and pan this image and I am trying to use the QGraphicsView technique. However a new window opens.
This is what I am doing.
scene = new QGraphicsScene(this);
view = new QGraphicsView(this);
QPixmap pix("/root/Image);
label->setPixmap(pix);
scene->addWidget(label);
view->setScene(scene);
view->setDragMode(QGraphicsView::scrollHandDrag);
view->show();
Can someone please suggest me what I should do. I want the label to act like the QGraphicsView.
Thank You :)
You create a scene and view and add the label to the scene, then tell the view to show itself with: -
view->show()
If, as you state, you want the QGraphicsView on the label, don't add the label to the scene, but add the QGraphicsView to the label: -
QLabel* pLabel = new QLabel(mainWindow); // setting mainWindow as the parent
QGraphicsView* pView = new QGraphicsView(pLabel) // set the label as the parent of the view.
You do not need to call show, as the label will handle that for you, assuming the label is on a Widget that is already displayed.
Now, instead of setting the pixmap on the label, create a pixmap in the scene with: -
pScene->addPixmap(pixmap);

How to add a scrollbar to parent QWidget

I understand how to add a scrollArea to a particular widget. However in my case Qwidget has multiple child widgets and these are all set using QVBoxLayout. Now how can I add a scroll bar in this case? Here QWidget is not the center widget, its one of the pages of the TabWidget. My code looks like:
QTabWIdget *center = new QTabWidget; setCentralWIdget(center);
xTab = new QWidget;
formLayout = new QFormLayout; formLayout->addWidget(...); formLayout->addWidget(...); formLayout->addWidget(...); formLayout->addWidget(...);
xTab->setLayout(formLayout);
Now how can I set the scrollBar to xTab? I tried using
scrollArea = new QScrollArea;
scrollArea->setWidget(xTab);
however, this isn't working.
Any idea/suggestions are helpful and appreciated.
Have you tried using QScrollArea as the tab page?
QTabWIdget *center = new QTabWidget; setCentralWIdget(center);
xTab = new QScrollArea;
formLayout = new QFormLayout; formLay....
xTab->setLayout(formLayout);
center->addTab(xTab, "XXX Tab");
I had success using the following:
scroll=new QScrollArea(mainWindow->centralWidget);
scroll->setGeometry(mainWindow->tabWidget->geometry());
scroll->setWidget(mainWindow->tabWidget);
scroll->show();
The QScrollArea defines where the scrollable widget will appear. If parent is 0, it's a non-modal window. setGeometry sets the QScrollArea instance to the desired dimensions (that of the tab). setWidget defines what widget the QScrollArea will actually be scrolling.
