Qgridlayout rowspan with qlabel text over several columns










0















I would like to achieve the following structure



--------------------
|text text| BUTTON |
|text text----------
|text text text text|
|text text text text|
---------------------


Where all that text is contained in a QLabel. I was trying to achieve this through the use of the rowspan property of a QGridLayout



QGridLayout *title_layout = new QGridLayout;
title_layout->addWidget(title_label, 0,0,3,1);
title_layout->addWidget(star_button,0,1,1,1,Qt::AlignRight);


in which i stated that the button could only occupy one row, but the label can occupy 3. The problem is that the text is anyway presented like this:



--------------------
|text text| BUTTON |
|text text| |
|text text| |
|text text| |
---------------------


Is there any way to achieve the first layout?

    The main problem is that what you want can not be, widgets can only have rectangular structure, the QLabel will never have the shape you want.
