Automatic reestructuring of elements of a grid layout

[quimnuss]

I have a QGroupBox which contains many QCheckboxes. I use a QVBoxLayout to place them, but I would like the layout to place the QCheckboxes in a grid fashion, adapting the number of columns to the horizontal space available.


Do I have to code the behaviour myself or is there a layout that does that automatically?

Thanks!

Sounds like a use case for a flow layout http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwidgets-layouts-flowlayout-example.html

indeed!

Correct me if I'm wrong, FlowLayout is not part of Qt, right?

And is there a way to set this layout on QtDesigner?
