Hello,

I'm fairly new to Qt, and learning it in my spare time. I've looked and looked at the docs for this issue, and if its there, I can't see it.

Essentially, I'm making use of the Designer to create the startup window, and then I am dynamically adding new content to it later.

The setup:
- I have a QFrame with a GridLayout. I have 10 items per row, 2 rows, nicely spaced inside of said Frame.
- I have a button designed to add duplicates of this frame (some minute differences in terms of names and such, but layout is the same)

However, even though I am using the exact same layout type, and the exact same sizes and presets for the items added to it, the result I get is very obviously different in the dynamically created Frame, compared to the Designer Frame.

I even tried creating a clone function to make the layouts exactly the same, but it didn't help.

Code:

- Clone:
Qt Code: 
  1. void clone(QGridLayout* original, QGridLayout* target)
  2. {
  3.     target->setAlignment(original->alignment());
  4.     target->setContentsMargins(target->contentsMargins());
  5.     target->setHorizontalSpacing(target->horizontalSpacing());
  6.     target->setMargin(target->margin());
  7.     target->setOriginCorner(original->originCorner());
  8.     target->setSizeConstraint(original->sizeConstraint());
  9.     target->setSpacing(original->spacing());
  10.     target->setVerticalSpacing(original->verticalSpacing());
  11. }

- Add Frame:
Qt Code: 
  1. void MainWindow::addUnit()
  2. {
  3.     if(unitsPerTab[ui->tabWidget->currentIndex()]-48 == 9)
  4.     {
  5.         return;
  6.     }
  7.  
  8.     unitsPerTab[ui->tabWidget->currentIndex()] += 1;
  9.  
  10.     QString number = QString(QChar(unitsPerTab[ui->tabWidget->currentIndex()]));
  11.     QString prefix = "unit" + number + "_";
  12.  
  13.     QFrame* unitFrame = new QFrame;
  14.     unitFrame->setGeometry(1,1,1057,61);
  15.     unitFrame->setMaximumHeight(61);
  16.     unitFrame->setMaximumWidth(1040);
  17.     unitFrame->setMinimumHeight(61);
  18.     unitFrame->setMinimumWidth(1040);
  19.     unitFrame->setAutoFillBackground(true);
  20.     unitFrame->setFrameShape(QFrame::Box);
  21.     unitFrame->setFrameShadow(QFrame::Raised);
  22.     unitFrame->setLineWidth(1);
  23.     unitFrame->setObjectName(prefix + "frame");
  24.  
  25.     QGridLayout* unitLayout = new QGridLayout();
  26.     clone(ui->gen_layout, unitLayout);
  27.     unitLayout->setObjectName(prefix + "layout");
  28.  
  29.     unitFrame->setLayout(unitLayout);
  30.  
  31.     //...Ommitted for brevity...
  32.  
  33.     unitLayout->addWidget(unitLabels[0],0,0);
  34.     for(int i = 1; i < 10; i++)
  35.     {
  36.         unitLayout->addWidget(unitLabels[i],0,i);
  37.     }
  38.  
  39.     unitLayout->addWidget(uSelect,1,0);
  40.     unitLayout->addWidget(auth,1,1,Qt::AlignHCenter);
  41.     unitLayout->addWidget(spin,1,2,Qt::AlignHCenter);
  42.     unitLayout->addWidget(msize,1,3,Qt::AlignHCenter);
  43.     unitLayout->addWidget(champ,1,4);
  44.     unitLayout->addWidget(banner,1,5);
  45.     unitLayout->addWidget(horn,1,6);
  46.     unitLayout->addWidget(ubi,1,7,Qt::AlignHCenter);
  47.     unitLayout->addWidget(minU,1,8);
  48.     unitLayout->addWidget(cost,1,9,Qt::AlignHCenter);
  49.  
  50.     QString layName = ui->tabWidget->currentWidget()->objectName() + "_layout";
  51.     ui->tabWidget->currentWidget()->findChild<QVBoxLayout*>(layName)->addWidget(unitFrame);
  52.     unitFrame->show();
  53. }

So any ideas?

Small PS: I have a ScrollArea with a Vertical Layout, AlignTop. On startup, the Align:Top doesn't work. However, when I add one the above frames to the layout, it all aligns top. Ideas? IMG
