[PyQt] How to get index of splitter

[F.A.Pinkse]

Hello russell,


Hmm, I thought .show() was a mere visible or not thing.

Ok, It solved my problem of not knowing the size before I do a setSizes().

Calculating the numbers is totally clear.

I am still puzzelled though what setSizes() is doing when you give it 
numbers not summing up to what splitter.sizes() reports.

like;
splitter.sizes() reports [500,500]
and you do a
splitter.setSizes(2,8)

Thanks again, for your patients and pointing me my shortcummings.


With ebst regards.

Frans.
