QHBoxLayout

Detailed Description

The PySide.QtGui.QHBoxLayout class lines up widgets horizontally.

This class is used to construct horizontal box layout objects. See PySide.QtGui.QBoxLayout for details.

The simplest use of the class is like this:

window = QWidget()
button1 = QPushButton("One")
button2 = QPushButton("Two")
button3 = QPushButton("Three")
button4 = QPushButton("Four")
button5 = QPushButton("Five")

layout = QHBoxLayout()
layout.addWidget(button1)
layout.addWidget(button2)
layout.addWidget(button3)
layout.addWidget(button4)
layout.addWidget(button5)

window.setLayout(layout)
window.show()

First, we create the widgets we want in the layout. Then, we create the PySide.QtGui.QHBoxLayout object and add the widgets into the layout. Finally, we call QWidget.setLayout() to install the PySide.QtGui.QHBoxLayout object onto the widget. At that point, the widgets in the layout are reparented to have window as their parent.
