\class QSizePolicy
\brief The QSizePolicy class is a layout attribute describing horizontal
and vertical resizing policy.
\ingroup geomanagement
\inmodule QtWidgets
The size policy of a widget is an expression of its willingness to
be resized in various ways, and affects how the widget is treated
by the \l{Layout Management}{layout engine}. Each widget returns a
QSizePolicy that describes the horizontal and vertical resizing
policy it prefers when being laid out. You can change this for
a specific widget by changing its QWidget::sizePolicy property.
QSizePolicy contains two independent QSizePolicy::Policy values
and two stretch factors; one describes the widgets's horizontal
size policy, and the other describes its vertical size policy. It
also contains a flag to indicate whether the height and width of
its preferred size are related.
The horizontal and vertical policies can be set in the
constructor, and altered using the setHorizontalPolicy() and
setVerticalPolicy() functions. The stretch factors can be set
using the setHorizontalStretch() and setVerticalStretch()
functions. The flag indicating whether the widget's
\l{QWidget::sizeHint()}{sizeHint()} is width-dependent (such as a
menu bar or a word-wrapping label) can be set using the
setHeightForWidth() function.
The current size policies and stretch factors be retrieved using
the horizontalPolicy(), verticalPolicy(), horizontalStretch() and
verticalStretch() functions. Alternatively, use the transpose()
function to swap the horizontal and vertical policies and
stretches. The hasHeightForWidth() function returns the current
status of the flag indicating the size hint dependencies.
Use the expandingDirections() function to determine whether the
associated widget can make use of more space than its
\l{QWidget::sizeHint()}{sizeHint()} function indicates, as well as
find out in which directions it can expand.
Finally, the QSizePolicy class provides operators comparing this
size policy to a given policy, as well as a QVariant operator
storing this QSizePolicy as a QVariant object.

/*!
\enum QSizePolicy::PolicyFlag
These flags are combined together to form the various \l{Policy}
values:
\value GrowFlag The widget can grow beyond its size hint if necessary.
\value ExpandFlag The widget should get as much space as possible.
\value ShrinkFlag The widget can shrink below its size hint if necessary.
\value IgnoreFlag The widget's size hint is ignored. The widget will get
as much space as possible.

/*!
\enum QSizePolicy::Policy
This enum describes the various per-dimension sizing types used
when constructing a QSizePolicy.
\value Fixed The QWidget::sizeHint() is the only acceptable
alternative, so the widget can never grow or shrink (e.g. the
vertical direction of a push button).
\value Minimum The sizeHint() is minimal, and sufficient. The
widget can be expanded, but there is no advantage to it being
larger (e.g. the horizontal direction of a push button).
It cannot be smaller than the size provided by sizeHint().
\value Maximum The sizeHint() is a maximum. The widget can be
shrunk any amount without detriment if other widgets need the
space (e.g. a separator line).
It cannot be larger than the size provided by sizeHint().
\value Preferred The sizeHint() is best, but the widget can be
shrunk and still be useful. The widget can be expanded, but there
is no advantage to it being larger than sizeHint() (the default
QWidget policy).
\value Expanding The sizeHint() is a sensible size, but the
widget can be shrunk and still be useful. The widget can make use
of extra space, so it should get as much space as possible (e.g.
the horizontal direction of a horizontal slider).
\value MinimumExpanding The sizeHint() is minimal, and sufficient.
The widget can make use of extra space, so it should get as much
space as possible (e.g. the horizontal direction of a horizontal
slider).
\value Ignored The sizeHint() is ignored. The widget will get as
much space as possible.

The control type specifies the type of the widget for which this

the \macos Aqua guidelines specify that push buttons should be
separated by 12 pixels, whereas vertically stacked radio buttons
