[Qt-interest] QTableWidget and QHeaderView::ResizeToContents don't work

[Malyushytsky, Alex]

I am trying to  make QTableWidget to automatically resize the section to the maximum size of the data in the column.

For each column I set resize mode (ResizeToContents) when I initialize the table.
table->horizontalHeader()->setResizeMode(col, QHeaderView::ResizeToContents);

It does automatically chose width of the column to be fully visible, but only at the time of the setResizeMode.
When width of the data (text in my case) set to the cell after such call is larger than column width, part it remains invisible.
This happens at least in the case when all columns don't fit viewport).

User then has no way to make it visible. The only way I found to fix it - is to resize table widget so it size become wider than column width. In this case column will be resized to fit text.

Programmatically I can change ResizeMode twice to fix the problem after I fill the table with data:

        this->horizontalHeader()->setResizeMode( col, QHeaderView::Fixed);
        this->horizontalHeader()->setResizeMode( col, QHeaderView::ResizeToContents);


But this kills the purpose and sounds like a bug to me.
QT 4.4.3 , Windows, MVC 2005.

Anybody can confirm such behavior before I report the bug?
