{alias:qhboxlayout }
h2. Name

*qhboxlayout — layout manager that arranges widgets horizontally

h2. Syntax
{panel:|borderStyle=solid|borderWidth=1|bgColor=#FFFFAA}

*qhboxlayout* _cmds_ ... 

{panel}

h2. Description

The *qhboxlayout* command creates a QHBoxLayout object, making it the active layout manager. This layout manager will automatically arrange widgets horizontally (just call qhboxlayout followed by the creation of the widgets). 

Call [qsetmargin] to adjust the margin between the stacked widgets and the widget containing them, or use [qsetspacing] to adjust spacing between the stacked widgets. 

For non-trivial layouts consider nesting widgets inside QWidgets that contain their own layout. This way you can simulate having one layout manager inside another allowing for mixed vertical and horizontal layouts. This technique is shown in [#Nested Layout]. 

See also [qvboxlayout] and [qgridlayout]. 

h2. Arguments
_cmds_ 
{indent}A block containing arguments, typically the widgets to be contained inside the layout. 

{indent} 

h2. Examples

h3. Ex.1: QHBoxLayout

qsetwindowtitle "QHBoxLayout"
qhboxlayout {
	qlabel "Label 1"
	qlabel "Label 2"
}

h3. Ex.2: Nested Layout
{anchor:Nested Layout}

{noformat:|borderWidth=1|bgColor=#eeeeee}
set w [qwidget]
qsetwindowtitle "Nested QHBoxLayout"
qhboxlayout {
	qlabel "Label 1"
	# Add two vertically positioned labels between "Label 1" and "Label 2"
	qaddvboxlayout {
		qlabel "Inner label 1"
		qlabel "Inner label 2"
	}
	qlabel "Label 2"
}
qshow $w

{noformat}
