+
+
+The QSizePolicy class is a layout attribute describing horizontal
+and vertical resizing policy.
+<p>
+
+<p> The size policy of a widget is an expression of its willingness to
+be resized in various ways.
+<p> Widgets that reimplement <a href="qwidget.html#sizePolicy">QWidget::sizePolicy</a>() return a QSizePolicy
+that describes the horizontal and vertical resizing policy they
+prefer when being laid out. Only <a href="#interesting">one of the
+ constructors</a> is of interest in most applications.
+<p> QSizePolicy contains two independent SizeType objects; one describes
+the widgets's horizontal size policy, and the other describes its
+vertical size policy. It also contains a flag to indicate whether the
+height and width of its preferred size are related.
+<p> The horizontal and vertical <a href="#SizeType-enum">SizeType</a>s are set in the usual constructor
+and can be queried using a variety of functions.
+<p> The <a href="#hasHeightForWidth">hasHeightForWidth</a>() flag indicates whether the widget's sizeHint()
+is width-dependent (such as a word-wrapping label) or not.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#SizeType-enum">QSizePolicy::SizeType</a>, <a href="appearance.html">Widget Appearance and Style</a>, and <a href="geomanagement.html">Layout Management</a>.
+
+<hr><h2>Member Type Documentation</h2>
+<h3 class=fn><a name="ExpandData-enum"></a>QSizePolicy::ExpandData</h3>
+
+<p> This enum type describes in which directions a widget can make use
+of extra space. There are four possible values:
+<ul>
+<li><tt>QSizePolicy::NoDirection</tt> - the widget cannot make use of extra space in
+any direction.
+<li><tt>QSizePolicy::Horizontally</tt> - the widget can usefully be wider than the
+sizeHint().
+<li><tt>QSizePolicy::Vertically</tt> - the widget can usefully be taller than the
+sizeHint().
+<li><tt>QSizePolicy::BothDirections</tt> - the widget can usefully be both wider and
+taller than the sizeHint().
+</ul>
+<h3 class=fn><a name="SizeType-enum"></a>QSizePolicy::SizeType</h3>
+
+<p> The per-dimension sizing types used when constructing a
+QSizePolicy are:
+<ul>
+<li><tt>QSizePolicy::Fixed</tt> - The <a href="qwidget.html#sizeHint">QWidget::sizeHint</a>() is the only acceptable
+alternative, so the widget can never grow or shrink (e.g. the
+vertical direction of a push button).
+<li><tt>QSizePolicy::Minimum</tt> - The sizeHint() is minimal, and sufficient. The
+widget can be expanded, but there is no advantage to it being
+larger (e.g. the horizontal direction of a push button).
+It cannot be smaller than the size provided by sizeHint().
+<li><tt>QSizePolicy::Maximum</tt> - The sizeHint() is a maximum. The widget can be
+shrunk any amount without detriment if other widgets need the
+space (e.g. a separator line).
+It cannot be larger than the size provided by sizeHint().
+<li><tt>QSizePolicy::Preferred</tt> - The sizeHint() is best, but the widget can be
+shrunk and still be useful. The widget can be expanded, but there
+is no advantage to it being larger than sizeHint() (the default
+<a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a> policy).
+<li><tt>QSizePolicy::Expanding</tt> - The sizeHint() is a sensible size, but the
+widget can be shrunk and still be useful. The widget can make use
+of extra space, so it should get as much space as possible (e.g.
+the horizontal direction of a slider).
+<li><tt>QSizePolicy::MinimumExpanding</tt> - The sizeHint() is minimal, and sufficient.
+The widget can make use of extra space, so it should get as much
+space as possible (e.g. the horizontal direction of a slider).
+<li><tt>QSizePolicy::Ignored</tt> - the sizeHint() is ignored. The widget will get as
+much space as possible.
+</ul>

+<h3 class=fn><a name="QSizePolicy"></a>QSizePolicy::QSizePolicy ()
+</h3>
+
+<p> Constructs a minimally initialized QSizePolicy.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a name="QSizePolicy-2"></a>QSizePolicy::QSizePolicy ( <a href="qsizepolicy.html#SizeType-enum">SizeType</a>&nbsp;hor, <a href="qsizepolicy.html#SizeType-enum">SizeType</a>&nbsp;ver, bool&nbsp;hfw = FALSE )
+</h3>
+
+<p> <a name="interesting"></a>
+This is the constructor normally used to return a value in the
+overridden <a href="qwidget.html#sizePolicy">QWidget::sizePolicy</a>() function of a <a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>
+subclass.
+<p> It constructs a QSizePolicy with independent horizontal and
+vertical sizing types, <em>hor</em> and <em>ver</em> respectively. These <a href="#SizeType-enum">sizing types</a> affect how the widget
+is treated by the <a href="qlayout.html">layout engine</a>.
+<p> If <em>hfw</em> is TRUE, the preferred height of the widget is dependent
+on the width of the widget (for example, a <a href="qlabel.html">QLabel</a> with line
+wrapping).
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#horData">horData</a>(), <a href="#verData">verData</a>(), and <a href="#hasHeightForWidth">hasHeightForWidth</a>().

+
+<p> Constructs a QSizePolicy with independent horizontal and vertical

+it wants to grow in both dimensions.
