QVBoxLayout

Detailed Description

The PySide.QtGui.QVBoxLayout class lines up widgets vertically.

This class is used to construct vertical 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 =  QVBoxLayout()

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