Well for a start you never mentioned that you were using QGraphicsView. In 
fact you specifically said "widget". 

Secondly, you can still use a QGraphicsLayout subclass. In this case set the 
layout on a parent QGraphicsWidget rather than a QWidget.

This will *NOT* rescale your content but will only alter the size of your 
QGraphicsWidget. I do this all of the time so I know that it works.

If you can still not get this to work please post a small *compilable* example 
that shows the problem and we can help to modify it to make it work.

Cheers,

Sean
