## Detailed Description

The QSizeGrip class provides corner-grip for resizing a top level window.

This widget works like the standard Windows resize handle. In the X11 version this resize handle generally works differently than the one provided by the system; we hope to reduce this difference in the future.

Put this widget anywhere in a tree and the user can use it to resize the top-level window. Generally this should be in the lower right-hand corner. Note that QStatusBar already uses this widget, so if you have a status bar (eg. you are using QMainWindow), then you don't need to use this widget explicitly.

See also QStatusBar.

Examples: scrollview/scrollview.cpp
