Detailed Description

All the horizontal box's child widgets will be placed alongside each other and sized according to their sizeHint()s.

Use setMargin() to add space around the edges, and use setSpacing() to add space between the widgets. Use setStretchFactor() if you want the widgets to be different sizes in proportion to one another. (See Layouts for more information on stretch factors.)
