QScrollArea with a VBoxLayout

[rishid]

I am trying to put a VboxLayout inside a QScrollArea. I have this to work with the code below with QPushButton, but if I try a custom widget I maed with QtDesigner the widget is not displayed.

One thing I tried was just to create a VBoxlayout (without a scroll area) and add my custom widget to it, and this worked fine. So it must have something to do with the scroll area setup, but I cannot tell.

Here is my code. (qpb1 shows up fine, but ne1 does not show up) (ui.frame is a QScrollArea)

QPushButton * qpb1 = new QPushButton("Jack");
NameEntry * ne1 = new NameEntry("John", "NU", QPixmap(":/fb/images/1604859.jpg"), "123456789", p );		
 
		QWidget * qw = new QWidget();
		QVBoxLayout * layout = new QVBoxLayout();
		layout->addWidget(ne1);
		layout->addWidget(qpb1);
		qw->setLayout(layout);
		ui.frame->setWidget(qw);

QPushButton * qpb1 = new QPushButton("Jack");
NameEntry * ne1 = new NameEntry("John", "NU", QPixmap(":/fb/images/1604859.jpg"), "123456789", p );		

		QWidget * qw = new QWidget();
		QVBoxLayout * layout = new QVBoxLayout();
		layout->addWidget(ne1);
		layout->addWidget(qpb1);
		qw->setLayout(layout);
		ui.frame->setWidget(qw);

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Thanks for the help.

Here is a snip from NameEntry if that is needed:

class NameEntry : public QWidget {
	Q_OBJECT
 
public:	
	NameEntry(QString name, QString info, QPixmap image, QString id, Profile & p, QWidget *parent = 0) :
			QWidget(parent), p(p), idNum(id) {
			ui.setupUi(this);
 
			setName(name);
			setInfo(info);
			setImage(image);
	}

class NameEntry : public QWidget {
	Q_OBJECT
	
public:	
	NameEntry(QString name, QString info, QPixmap image, QString id, Profile & p, QWidget *parent = 0) :
			QWidget(parent), p(p), idNum(id) {
			ui.setupUi(this);
			
			setName(name);
			setInfo(info);
			setImage(image);
	}

Does NameEntry reimplement QWidget::sizeHint()? For more details, see Custom Widgets in Layouts.

Yep that was it.

Man you know everything, you should write a book on this stuff.

Heh thanks. One can boost his/her Qt knowledge a lot by following this forum. I'm not really a book writer type of person but feel free to suggest wiki article ideas.
