I am trying to add controls (the number determined in response to user input) to a basic form created with Qt Creator. Unfortunately the GridLayout is not expanding so anything beyond 4 iterations of a 'for' loop all the widgets are getting squashed up. Any ideas as to where to look for a solution would be much appreciated. Thanks in anticipation...
