How to hide scrollbar in QScrollArea?

Question

How can one hide the scrollbars in a QScrollArea? Currently I use the hide() method on the scrollbars returned by QScrollArea::horizontalScro

From Qt documents for scrollContentsBy():

Calling this function in order to scroll programmatically is an error, use the scroll bars instead (e.g. by calling QScrollBar::setValue() directly).
