how to get the default size of a window in pyqt4

When I create a QMainWindow without explicitly specifying its dimensions, PyQt will give it a -let's say- "standard size" which is not the minimum that the window can get.

Can I set this size at will in any way?

My goal is to get this "standard size" according to the currently visible widgets, when I set the visibility of some widgets on/off.

You want to look at QWidget.normalGeometry(). Note, the widget (or in this case, QMainWindow) must be first shown for this to return something other than (0,0)

QWidget.sizeHint holds the recommended size for the widget. It's default implementation returns the layout's preferred size if the widget has a layout. So if your dialog has a layout, just use sizeHint to get the recommended size which is the default one.

You might try this command to set size:

QMainWindow.setIconSize (self, QSize iconSize)

Alternatively, one can set a size with the given width and height using:

PySide.QtCore.QSize.setWidth() PySide.QtCore.QSize.setHeight()
