Horizontal scrollbar problem

[blaylockr]

Hi,

I am trying to place a horizontal scrollbar in the bottom of a widget. The widget in question is one of (3) panes in a splitter window.

The first problem I discovered was that the scrollbar is too long for the width of the window by 62 units.

This code is in the constructor of my widget class.

mpScrollbar = new QScrollBar ( Qt::Horizontal, this );
	mpScrollbar->setGeometry ( 0, height() + 20, width() - 62, 20 );

mpScrollbar = new QScrollBar ( Qt::Horizontal, this );
	mpScrollbar->setGeometry ( 0, height() + 20, width() - 62, 20 );

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

The second problem is that when I resize the window, the scrollbar does not resize with it.

I tried overriding the widget's resizeEvent but when I do, the scrollbar is NEVER drawn.

void MyWidget::resizeEvent ( QResizeEvent * event )
{
	mpScrollbar->setGeometry ( 0, height() + 20, width() - 62, 20 );
	mpScrollbar->update();
}

void MyWidget::resizeEvent ( QResizeEvent * event )
{
	mpScrollbar->setGeometry ( 0, height() + 20, width() - 62, 20 );
	mpScrollbar->update();
}
