To begin easily layout mangement, just focus on QHBoxLayout, QVBoxLayout and QGridLayout.
First of all, define your layout design that will receive widgets. You can nest layout into layouts.

Simply add widget into layouts and let Qt display the widget for you.
Use sequential QBoxLayout::addWidget for both Horizontal or Vertical layouts or QGridLayout::addWidget(row, col), to set a specified cell with a specified widget.

The steps are the following :
1. read the doc about layout
2. create a layout
3. set the layout for your widget with QWidget::setLayout 4. create your widgets
5. add widgets to layout
6. enjoy

I let you looking for the right code instructions since it is not so difficult. The doc is your friend.

Then you will notice that Qt dont mind about the order of setting layouts and adding widgets : either you can add widgets then set layout or set layout then add widget to it.

Dear Friends,
I am working on a new project, I want to add a form some PushButtons dynamically, so I added a VerticalLayout to form, but My PushButton Class is derived from QPushButton,
If I add QPush button to Layout I can see on form, but if I add MyButton it doesnt appear.

THIS WORKS

QWidget *window = new QWidget;
QPushButton *button1 = new QPushButton("One");
QPushButton *button2 = new QPushButton("Two");
QPushButton *button3 = new QPushButton("Three");
QPushButton *button4 = new QPushButton("Four");
QPushButton *button5 = new QPushButton("Five");

QHBoxLayout *layout = new QHBoxLayout;
layout->addWidget(button1);
layout->addWidget(button2);
layout->addWidget(button3);
layout->addWidget(button4);
layout->addWidget(button5);


THIS DOESNT

QWidget *window = new QWidget;
MyButton *button1 = new MyButton("One");
MyButton *button2 = new MyButton("Two");
MyButton *button3 = new MyButton("Three");
MyButton *button4 = new MyButton("Four");
MyButton *button5 = new MyButton("Five");

QHBoxLayout *layout = new QHBoxLayout;
layout->addWidget(button1);
layout->addWidget(button2);
layout->addWidget(button3);
layout->addWidget(button4);
layout->addWidget(button5);

May be something is missing in your button implementation, like calling base class method in overloaded one.
Please provide your code.

Your MyButton class is probably incorrect then.
