[Interest] Layout problem

[David Boosalis]

grid->addWidget(compass,0,0,1,2);
grid->addWidget(leftLabelArea,1,0);
grid->addWidget(rightLabelArea,1,1);
grid->setRowStretch(0,1);
grid->setRowStretch(1,0);


if you want the compass to always keep the same size so it does not get
distorted, you might try
grid->addWidget(compass,0,0,1,2,Qt::AlignCenter);

If you want to have the compass grow but keep square you probable ahve to
do something with its resizePolicy
