[Qgis-user] Edit UI

[Andreas Neumann]

designing forms with qt-designer is not that hard. Even I know how to do
it - and I am not a C++ programmer. You have to make sure that the widget
is compatible with the data type and that the widget names correspond with
the attribute column names.

The other tricky part is to use layouts and spacers: grid and form layout.
This helps to ensure that your forms can be resized and the widgets in the
layout will resize as well. Sometimes it may be frustrating if you invest
a lot of time to arrange widgets - then you apply a layout and it
rearranges a lot ...

All the rest is not really complicated.
