I've got a (horizontal) split pane, with a tabbed pane as the left component. I want to ensure that the content of each tab takes up all available space when the divider of the split pane is resized, but I'm a bit confused as to what I should be binding to what. Any tips?
Thanks,
Joseph.
did you try anything?
Because you described default behavior for most cases. Put any layout manager other from Pane and Group inside SplitPane and they will try to take all available space for them.

I'm looking at Youtube examples and I see the instructor has Widgets I don't have, Like different size Text Fields and an analogue clock.
Is there somewhere I can get more Widgets?
I obtained a text size same as to the "tutorial" using:
android:textAppearance="#style/TextAppearance.AppCompat.Large"
Looks like AndroidStudio has undergone some change. Best option is to enter the "Text" mode and type the style yourself. For ex. if you need an equivalent of LargeText view, then add a TextView and move onto the Text mode and add this line:
android:textAppearance="#style/?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
Or you could also edit the properties of TextView too.
You should add this line android:textAppearance="#android:style/TextAppearance.Large"
inside the TextView after clicking on the Text tab near Design tab located in the middle left to the right of design tab.
but you have to consider that first of all you need to drag and drop TextView from Widgets into the user interface or Design section.
Click into the Text tab located middle left to the right of the Design tab, find the TextView element and within it simply enter this line of code:
style="/?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
Remember this line of code has to be within the element in order for it to work.
Go to properties and then select text appearance and select app.
combat.large
Use this:
android:text="Large Text"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
Add it inside your Textview tag.
I have a QTreeView widget placed inside a QDockWidget:
I want to set the properties of the QTreeView, that it automatically fills the whole available client drawing area (similar as WinForms DockFill property).
How can this be achieved with the QT-Designer?
Note: I've been playing around with the QTreeViews sizePolicy properties. If these are set to Expanding (as is the default) the accepted answer works out out of the box.
In Qt Designer, right-click the dock-widget, and then select Lay out -> Lay Out Vertically from the menu. Or you can just click on the dock-widget to select it, and then use the equivalent layout toolbar buttons.
If you want to maximise the space taken up by the tree-view, select the first child widget of the dock widget (it will probably be shown as dockWidgetContents in the Object Inspector pane). Then scroll down to the bottom of the Property Editor, and reset all the margins to zero.
in JavaFX 2.2 I want to use a split pane (or better: any component with two dividers) where the dividers can be collapsed / expanded again. Is there any Component which does this already for me (and I just don't get it) or do I have to implement this myself? Would you recommend to use Swing here?
Thanks in advance :)
Edit:
Maybe for a better imagination of my problem, the following information is neccessary: I want to split my contents vertically.
content | content | content
(where '|' are the dividers).
JavaFX has a SplitPane to do this.
The pane does not include a button for collapsing and expanding the divider. Either you need to program such a button yourself or the user can just manually drag the pane dividers.

I would not recommend using Swing for this unless you have other important reasons to use Swing.
What are the meaning of HORZGUIDE and VERTGUIDE?
I could not find any documentation in msdn related to these.
It isn't documented. This is meta-data that dialog editor generates to store the state of the editor. You'll find this inside a DESIGNINFO block in the .rc file.
Note the rulers displayed at the top and left of the dialog. You can click inside the ruler to add a guide that helps you align controls. Every horizontal guide generates a HORZGUIDE line inside the block. Same idea for vertical guides.
Also note margin values, the start and end of the ruler.
Basically, I have an usercontrol as main container, inside which I have a few groupboxes and buttons. But, my interface controls will not be resized and positioned properly as what I expect in design interface.
I've already tried to change the anchor and dock properties but none of them serve my purpose.
I searched online and found something called viewbox in WPF, I'm wondering if there is something like "viewbox" in visual studio 2010?
Please help!
Try using TableLayoutPanel container and put your controls in it. It is similar to the idea of table in HTML where it is divided to rows and columns each one of them can be set to either a set of pixels or a percentage. Usually if you want to use re-sizable form, usually you should have a control that will give you good results when stretching such as image, multiline textbox etc... In addition, put the dock property to fill to get the stretching you want.
I hope this info was useful for you.
