Hello,

I'm using python + qt + maemo 5 sdk to develop a very simple test application.

I'm using Qt designer, to basically create small widget which consists of a scrollarea + label and a pushbutton.

So after I finished creating this widget in designer I ran:
pyside-uic main.ui -o ui.py

I then import this form main.py, and it displays my spiffy widget.

The problem is no matter what I do, I can't make the label scroll.

the portion of ui.py of interest looks like this:
Form.setObjectName("Form")
Form.resize(540, 396)
Form.setSizeIncrement(QtCore.QSize(0, 0))
Form.setAutoFillBackground(True)
self.scrollArea = QtGui.QScrollArea(Form)
self.scrollArea.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(170, 80, 120, 80))
self.scrollArea.setWidgetResizable(True)
self.scrollArea.setObjectName("scrollArea")
self.scrollAreaWidgetContents = QtGui.QWidget(self.scrollArea)
self.scrollAreaWidgetContents.setGeometry(QtCore.Q Rect(0, 0, 118, 78))
self.scrollAreaWidgetContents.setObjectName("scrol lAreaWidgetContents")
self.label = QtGui.QLabel(self.scrollAreaWidgetContents)
self.label.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(20, 10, 61, 51))
self.label.setObjectName("label")
self.scrollArea.setWidget(self.scrollAreaWidgetCon tents)


Any help would be appreciated.

Hi irooniam

Could you find a solution for it?
I have the same problem
I am using Python with PyQt
I do not even know how to add a QScrollArea as it is missing in my Qt Designer.

You've set the geometry of the scrollAreaWidgetContents QWidget as smaller than that of the QScrollArea, so there's no need to scroll. Try increasing the width/height of the QWidget (you may even need to use setMinimumSize - I'm not sure whether Qt would decide to shrink it to fit anyway).
