Maximize window and resize contents - howto?

[hakermania]

Hello!

I know that it is possible to have a unmaximized window and when maximized its contents to be resized as well so as to fit the screen.

But I don't have a tip, can you give one?

The easiest way is to create your user interface in Qt Designer

Remember to place all the components in layouts, not forgetting about a layout for the main widget

If I understand correctly:
You may maximize window, using next function of QMainWindow


Maximized()

For resize contents You must use layout on your form.

That's right. However to maximize your window you must use following :)


void QWidget::showMaximized () [slot]

Yes, I was not right. Use Myself


MainWindow w;
w.show();
w.showMaximized();
return a.exec();
