I am new to QT and I am creating a widget that has a gridlayout. The gridlayout contains a matrix of QLineEdit widgets. The window resizes to fit the layout but when layout is large it goes off screen. When I maximize the screen, the QLineEdit widgets are resized to fit the screen and for large layouts they become extremely small.

I want to be able to resize the window without resizing the QLineEdit widgets and add scroll bars to navigate.

I tried the following with no luck:

Window->resize(QSize(500,500));  
QScrollArea *scrollArea = new QScrollArea;  
scrollArea->setWidget(Window);

where window is the widget containing the layout. Also, the window closes when after executing “scrollArea->setWidget(Window);” and I dont why.

If someone can help me out I would really appreciate it.
Thank You!

    I fixed my problem by creating a QMainWindow with the menu bar. Then created a widget which includes the layout, set the Scroll Area to the widget. Finally set the central widget of the main widow to the scroll area.
