Have you tried nesting it within a QScrollArea?

You'll need to set it's size policy to an appropriate value to ensure
the widget displays at the maximum height inside the scroll widget. (I
can never remember which one I want off the top of my head, I think
it's QSizePolicy::MinimumExpanding )

Cheers,
