How to control size of widgets in Qt/PyQt/PySide grid layout

I am struck with a foolish but annoying question. I would like to set different sizes for two list widgets on a grid layout, one above the other. So, I would like to set 60% of the form space to the upper widget and 40% to the lower widget. I attempted to use setRowStretch, without success.

Here is my code:

import sys
from PyQt4.QtCore import *
from PyQt4.QtGui import *

def window():
    app = QApplication(sys.argv)
    win = QWidget()

    list1 = QListView()
    list2 = QListView()

    grid = QGridLayout()
    grid.setRowStretch(6, 4)
    grid.addWidget(list1)
    grid.setSpacing(2)
    grid.addWidget(list2)

    win.setLayout(grid)
    win.setGeometry(300, 150, 350, 300)
    win.setWindowTitle("Example")
    win.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

if __name__ == '__main__':
   window()

Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

The first parameter of the rowStretch method is the row number, the second is the stretch factor. So you need two calls to rowStretch, like this:

import sys
from PyQt4.QtCore import *
from PyQt4.QtGui import *

def window():
    app = QApplication(sys.argv)
    win = QWidget()

    list1 = QListView()
    list2 = QListView()

    grid = QGridLayout()
    grid.setRowStretch(0, 6)
    grid.setRowStretch(1, 4)
    grid.addWidget(list1)
    grid.setSpacing(2)
    grid.addWidget(list2)

    win.setLayout(grid)
    win.setGeometry(300, 150, 350, 300)
    win.setWindowTitle("Example")
    win.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

if __name__ == '__main__':
   window()
