You could try to subclass the QLabels and implement sizeHint for them, 
leaving _ViewContainer alone (size wise).. Let us know, if that helps. 

Since you have QMainWindows in each of your dock widgets, the outcome is 
still hard to predict. You may want to reduce your example to the bare 
minimum, e.g. with a single QMainWindow, if the above does not appear 
to work.
