Thank you for this hint.
Applying it as follows to a QLabel works fine:
initRunOutputLabel = new QLabel(i18nc("", "Output:"), initRun);
QSizePolicy *vexp = new QSizePolicy(QSizePolicy::Preferred,
QSizePolicy::Fixed);
initRunOutputLabel->setSizePolicy(vexp->horizontalPolicy(), vexp-
>verticalPolicy());
However, applying it to the KUrlRequester, does not work:
selectDestinationDir = new KUrlRequester(destinationDirGroup);
selectDestinationDir->setMode(KFile::Directory);
QSizePolicy *hexp = new QSizePolicy(QSizePolicy::Expanding,
QSizePolicy::Preferred);
hexp->setHorizontalStretch(1);
hexp->setVerticalStretch(1);
selectDestinationDir->setSizePolicy(hexp->horizontalPolicy(), hexp-
>verticalPolicy());
selectDestinationDir->sizePolicy().setHorizontalStretch(hexp-
>horizontalStretch());
It is still not as wide as I wish.
The solution proposed by David works fine as well. Thank you for that.
Cheers
