Hi, as mentioned you may want take a closer look to the layout system which is used by Qt, which is indeed very powerful and usable..
For your case it is always good to play in the designer and see how the widgets behave. Select your "parent/container widget" and place in this your browser and your edit. then lay them out. Use for that a QVBoxLayout. In that options you can edit the margin and spacing... then select the editor and set its min and max height to 100. then you should have your desired behavior.

EDIT: I have attached a simple ui of what you want. If you don't want use the designer translate the ui via uic to a h file and look inside and "steal" the pure c++ code.
