Each widget returns a QSizePolicy that describes the horizontal and vertical resizing policy it prefers when being laid out. You can change this for a specific widget by changing its <a href="qwidget.html#sizePolicy-prop">QWidget.sizePolicy</a> property.</p> <p>QSizePolicy contains two independent <a href="qsizepolicy.html#Policy-enum">QSizePolicy.Policy</a> values and two stretch factors; one describes the widgets's horizontal size policy, and the other describes its vertical size policy. It also contains a flag to indicate whether the height and width of its preferred size are related.</p> <p>The horizontal and vertical policies can be set in the constructor, and altered using the <a href="qsizepolicy.html#setHorizontalPolicy">setHorizontalPolicy</a>() and <a href="qsizepolicy.html#setVerticalPolicy">setVerticalPolicy</a>() functions. The stretch factors can be set using the <a href="qsizepolicy.html#setHorizontalStretch">setHorizontalStretch</a>() and <a href="qsizepolicy.html#setVerticalStretch">setVerticalStretch</a>() functions. The flag indicating whether the widget's <a href="qwidget.html#sizeHint-prop">sizeHint()</a> is width-dependent (such as a menu bar or a word-wrapping label) can be set using the <a href="qsizepolicy.html#setHeightForWidth">setHeightForWidth</a>() function.</p> <p>The current size policies and stretch factors be retrieved using the <a href="qsizepolicy.html#horizontalPolicy">horizontalPolicy</a>(), <a href="qsizepolicy.html#verticalPolicy">verticalPolicy</a>(), <a href="qsizepolicy.html#horizontalStretch">horizontalStretch</a>() and <a href="qsizepolicy.html#verticalStretch">verticalStretch</a>() functions. Alternatively, use the <a href="qsizepolicy.html#transpose">transpose</a>() function to swap the horizontal and vertical policies and stretches. The <a href="qsizepolicy.html#hasHeightForWidth">hasHeightForWidth</a>() function returns the current status of the flag indicating the size hint dependencies.</p> <p>Use the <a href="qsizepolicy.html#expandingDirections">expandingDirections</a>() function to determine whether the associated widget can make use of more space than its <a href="qwidget.html#sizeHint-prop">sizeHint()</a> function indicates, as well as find out in which directions it can expand.</p> <p>Finally, the QSizePolicy class provides operators comparing this size policy to a given policy, as well as a <a href="qvariant.html">QVariant</a> operator storing this QSizePolicy as a <a href="qvariant.html">QVariant</a> object.</p> <hr /><h2>Type Documentation</h2><h3 class="fn"><a name="ControlType-enum" />QSizePolicy.ControlType</h3><p>This enum specifies the different types of widgets in terms of layout interaction:</p> <table class="valuelist"> <tr class="odd" valign="top"> <th class="tblConst">Constant</th> <th class="tblval">Value</th> <th class="tbldscr">Description</th> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.DefaultType</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00000001</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">The default type, when none is specified.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.ButtonBox</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00000002</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qdialogbuttonbox.html">QDialogButtonBox</a> instance.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.CheckBox</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00000004</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qcheckbox.html">QCheckBox</a> instance.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.ComboBox</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00000008</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qcombobox.html">QComboBox</a> instance.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.Frame</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00000010</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qframe.html">QFrame</a> instance.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.GroupBox</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00000020</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qgroupbox.html">QGroupBox</a> instance.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.Label</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00000040</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qlabel.html">QLabel</a> instance.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.Line</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00000080</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qframe.html">QFrame</a> instance with <a href="qframe.html#Shape-enum">QFrame.HLine</a> or <a href="qframe.html#Shape-enum">QFrame.VLine</a>.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.LineEdit</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00000100</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qlineedit.html">QLineEdit</a> instance.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.PushButton</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00000200</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qpushbutton.html">QPushButton</a> instance.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.RadioButton</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00000400</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qradiobutton.html">QRadioButton</a> instance.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.Slider</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00000800</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qabstractslider.html">QAbstractSlider</a> instance.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.SpinBox</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00001000</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qabstractspinbox.html">QAbstractSpinBox</a> instance.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.TabWidget</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00002000</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qtabwidget.html">QTabWidget</a> instance.</td> </tr> <tr> <td class="topAlign"><tt>QSizePolicy.ToolButton</tt></td> <td class="topAlign"><tt>0x00004000</tt></td> <td class="topAlign">A <a href="qtoolbutton.html">QToolButton</a> instance.</td> </tr> </table> <p>This enum was introduced or modified in Qt 4.3.</p> <p>The ControlTypes type is a typedef for <a href="qflags.html">QFlags</a><ControlType>.
