    \class QSizePolicy
    \brief The QSizePolicy class is a layout attribute describing horizontal
    and vertical resizing policy.
 
    \ingroup geomanagement
    \inmodule QtWidgets
 
    The size policy of a widget is an expression of its willingness to
    be resized in various ways, and affects how the widget is treated
    by the \l{Layout Management}{layout engine}. Each widget returns a
    QSizePolicy that describes the horizontal and vertical resizing
    policy it prefers when being laid out. You can change this for
    a specific widget by changing its QWidget::sizePolicy property.
 
    QSizePolicy contains two independent QSizePolicy::Policy values
    and two stretch factors; one describes the widgets's horizontal
    size policy, and the other describes its vertical size policy. It
    also contains a flag to indicate whether the height and width of
    its preferred size are related.
 
    The horizontal and vertical policies can be set in the
    constructor, and altered using the setHorizontalPolicy() and
    setVerticalPolicy() functions. The stretch factors can be set
    using the setHorizontalStretch() and setVerticalStretch()
    functions. The flag indicating whether the widget's
    \l{QWidget::sizeHint()}{sizeHint()} is width-dependent (such as a
    menu bar or a word-wrapping label) can be set using the
    setHeightForWidth() function.
 
    The current size policies and stretch factors be retrieved using
    the horizontalPolicy(), verticalPolicy(), horizontalStretch() and
    verticalStretch() functions. Alternatively, use the transpose()
    function to swap the horizontal and vertical policies and
    stretches. The hasHeightForWidth() function returns the current
    status of the flag indicating the size hint dependencies.
 
    Use the expandingDirections() function to determine whether the
    associated widget can make use of more space than its
    \l{QWidget::sizeHint()}{sizeHint()} function indicates, as well as
    find out in which directions it can expand.
 
    Finally, the QSizePolicy class provides operators comparing this
    size policy to a given policy, as well as a QVariant operator
    storing this QSizePolicy as a QVariant object.

    \enum QSizePolicy::PolicyFlag
 
    These flags are combined together to form the various \l{Policy}
    values:
 
    \value GrowFlag  The widget can grow beyond its size hint if necessary.
    \value ExpandFlag  The widget should get as much space as possible.
    \value ShrinkFlag  The widget can shrink below its size hint if necessary.
    \value IgnoreFlag  The widget's size hint is ignored. The widget will get
        as much space as possible.

/*!
    \enum QSizePolicy::Policy
 
    This enum describes the various per-dimension sizing types used
    when constructing a QSizePolicy.
 
    \value Fixed  The QWidget::sizeHint() is the only acceptable
        alternative, so the widget can never grow or shrink (e.g. the
        vertical direction of a push button).
 
    \value Minimum  The sizeHint() is minimal, and sufficient. The
        widget can be expanded, but there is no advantage to it being
        larger (e.g. the horizontal direction of a push button).
        It cannot be smaller than the size provided by sizeHint().
 
    \value Maximum  The sizeHint() is a maximum. The widget can be
        shrunk any amount without detriment if other widgets need the
        space (e.g. a separator line).
        It cannot be larger than the size provided by sizeHint().
 
    \value Preferred  The sizeHint() is best, but the widget can be
        shrunk and still be useful. The widget can be expanded, but there
        is no advantage to it being larger than sizeHint() (the default
        QWidget policy).
 
    \value Expanding  The sizeHint() is a sensible size, but the
        widget can be shrunk and still be useful. The widget can make use
        of extra space, so it should get as much space as possible (e.g.
        the horizontal direction of a horizontal slider).
 
    \value MinimumExpanding  The sizeHint() is minimal, and sufficient.
        The widget can make use of extra space, so it should get as much
        space as possible (e.g. the horizontal direction of a horizontal
        slider).
 
    \value Ignored  The sizeHint() is ignored. The widget will get as
        much space as possible.
