QGridLayout with different size of cells

Question

I'm trying to set a QGridLayout with four widget as in the image below:

however what I've managed with QGridLayout as of now is:

I don't see how I can set the size of the row different for column 0 and 1. Maybe QGridLayout is not the right way of doing it but I don't know of any other widget that would do the trick. Does anyone have any idea how to achieve this?

Answer 1

I would use vertical and horizontal layouts instead of the grid layout. So you need two vertical layouts and horizontal one:

// Left side
QLabel *lbl1 = new QLabel(this);
QTableWidget *t = new QTableWidget(this);
QVBoxLayout *vl1 = new QVBoxLayout;
vl1->addWidget(lbl1);
vl1->addWidget(t);

// Right side
// QImage is not a widget, so it should be a label with image
QLabel *lbl2 = new QLabel(this);
QCustomPlot *pl = new QCustomPlot(this);
QVBoxLayout *vl2 = new QVBoxLayout;
vl2->addWidget(lbl2);
vl2->addWidget(pl);

// Create and set the main layout
QHBoxLayout mainLayout = new QHBoxLayout(this);
mainLayout->addLayout(vl1);
mainLayout->addLayout(vl2);

I don't think grids are the way to go here indeed...

You could try making a horizontal layout of 2 QFrames, in which you set a vertical layout each with the two widgets of that "column"
