I am trying to use a Column layout which fills the ApplicationWindow parent. I want the window to have content padding, so I guess I have to put margin to the layout. This is the approach I am taking:
import QtQuick
import QtQuick.Controls
import QtQuick.Layouts
ApplicationWindow {
id: root
width: rootLayout.implicitWidth
height: rootLayout.implicitHeight
minimumWidth: rootLayout.Layout.minimumWidth
minimumHeight: rootLayout.Layout.minimumHeight
ColumnLayout {
id: rootLayout
anchors.margins: 10
anchors.fill: parent
}
}
But it does not work fine since the minimum height property of the layout does not take into account the margins and the window can shrink more than it should be possible.
import QtQuick
import QtQuick.Controls
import QtQuick.Layouts
ApplicationWindow {
id: root
visible: true
width: minimumWidth
height: minimumHeight
minimumWidth: rootLayout.implicitWidth + rootLayout.anchors.margins*2
minimumHeight: rootLayout.implicitHeight + rootLayout.anchors.margins*2
ColumnLayout {
id: rootLayout
anchors.fill: parent
anchors.margins: 10
}
}
Also note, that you must also fill ColumnLayout
with some real elements with correctly defined implicit sizes for the everything to be sized properly.
