Re: Resize flicking on QMainWindow centralWidget in python but not C++

Looks like this is just a function of QQuickWidget, either in a layout or standalone:

    app = QApplication(sys.argv)
    mw = QWidget()
    w = QQuickWidget()
    Layout = QVBoxLayout(mw)
    Layout.addWidget(w)
    mw.show()
    app.exec()


    app = QApplication(sys.argv)
    mw = QQuickWidget()
    mw.show()
    app.exec()

Difficult to pinpoint as a reproducible report.
