QGraphicsView and scrollbars

[godmodder]

Hello,

I'm using a QGraphicsView widget for the texture browser I'm currently coding. I load a big image file with a lot of textures on it and then do lots of stuff to it.
Now the problem is I want to display all of the image in the horizontal direction. For example: if the size of the image is 256x512 I want my QGraphicsview to have a width of 256.

For now, let's say the image width is always going to be 256 and I set it to that manually. When the image height is large, a vertical scrollbar is going to appear, but then the viewable area of the widget is not 256 anymore and I can't see the whole image in the horizontal direction.

How can I solve this?

Either

• subclass QScrollBar and reimplement QWidget::showEvent() and QWidget::hideEvent()
• subclass QScrollBar and reimplement QWidget::setVisible()
• use an event filter to catch show/hide events

react to visibility changes and make the view larger/smaller when needed.
