[Qt-interest] custom QTableView editor widget size question

[Israel Brewster]

I have a QTableView, and by subclassing QItemDelegate and re- 
implementing the createEditor function, I have a QSpinBox with custom  
limits as my editor. This is good. However, I would like to make the  
QSpinBox larger than the actual cell being edited, that is I'd like  
the up and down arrows of the QSpinBox to be overlapping the next cell  
so that the editor portion of the spin box is the same size as the  
cell being edited. Now obviously you can't make the editor widget any  
larger than its parent widget, but I figured I could get around this  
by setting the main window as the parent and manually adjusting the  
position. This, however, doesn't work- while it does allow me to  
adjust the position of the editor freely, it still seems to be limited  
to the size of the cell being edited, and I can't make it any larger.  
Is there any way to get around this limitation? Thanks.
