    Just call this function with your preferred size parameters.
    Qt Code:
    1. mainWindow->setFixedSize(200,200);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

  3. The following user says thank you to yogeshgokul for this useful post:

    Just to expand on what yogeshgokul mentioned and if this helps...I believe you can also do

    Qt Code:
    1. mainWindow->setMaximumSize(200, 200);
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    and setMinimumSize() as well if needed depending on if you want the user to resize or minimize the window up to a certain point.

    If you are using QT Creator and a .ui you can easily access these and more by right clicking the window in the designer mode and going to the "Size Constraints" option and galore you have 6 options I believe.

    Hope this helps I'm kinda new hehe!
