Re: QwtScaleWidget has wrong scale

Hi again,

maybe this one is a bit hard to understand and differs in your case:

It means, add a Layout around the thermo (colourbar) and set the top and 
bottom margins to the same values as the scale reserves for the numbers.
In your case, you have to ask your free standing scale for its margins 
and apply them to the VBox the colourbar is in.
So, the colourbar is shrunk to the same size as your actual scale.

Hope, it's getting clear, now.

Regards,

Rainer
