QDockWidget splitter jumps when QMainWindow Resized

问题

In an old program of mine, I have 2-column QTableWidget inside of a QDockWidget.

Building it in modern times (Qt 5.10) I seem to have to override the table's sizeHint() to get it to be a width besides 100px or something. Which was a bit annoying (didn't need this before--why isn't the table's width via headers the default?)

But with that tweaked, there's now another nuisance: if the user does any moving of the splitter for the dock widget, it will be lost on any window resize. I made a little MCVE to show the effect...here's the startup situation:

Then let's say the user drags the splitter a bit (could be expansion, could be contraction--doesn't matter):

Now they drag the bottom edge of the window down a bit, and snap, it jumps back to the preferred size (the sudden jump occurs right when the mouse first starts dragging):

Changing the horizontal size policy from QSizePolicy::Preferred to QSizePolicy::Ignored doesn't seem to influence this behavior, not calling setStretchLastSection() doesn't seem to help either.

I'd prefer if the window be resized vertically that a horizontal splitter not move at all...and if it's resized horizontally that something more gradual be done than a jump. Any ideas? Qt Creator doesn't seem to have this problem with its watchlist, but I'm not familiar enough with the source to go digging into why.

mainwindow.h:

#include <QMainWindow>

QT_BEGIN_NAMESPACE
class QTextEdit;
class SizedTableWidget;
QT_END_NAMESPACE

class SizedTableWidget;

class MainWindow : public QMainWindow {
    Q_OBJECT

    QTextEdit *textEdit;
    SizedTableWidget *table;

public:
    MainWindow ();
};

mainwindow.cpp:

#include <QtWidgets>

#include "mainwindow.h"

class SizedTableWidget : public QTableWidget {
public:
    SizedTableWidget (int rows, int columns, QWidget *parent) :
        QTableWidget (rows, columns, parent) {}

    QSize sizeHint() const {
        return QSize (
            verticalHeader()->width()
                + horizontalHeader()->length()
                + frameWidth() * 2,
            horizontalHeader()->height()
                + verticalHeader()->length()
                + frameWidth() * 2
        );
    }
};

MainWindow::MainWindow() : textEdit(new QTextEdit) {
    setCentralWidget(textEdit);

    QDockWidget *dock = new QDockWidget(tr("Table"), this);
    dock->setAllowedAreas(Qt::LeftDockWidgetArea | Qt::RightDockWidgetArea);

    table = new SizedTableWidget (1 /* rows */, 2 /* cols */, dock);
    table->setHorizontalHeaderLabels(QStringList() << "name" << "value");

    QTableWidgetItem *nameItem = new QTableWidgetItem;
    nameItem->setText("foo");
    table->setItem(0, 0, nameItem);

    QTableWidgetItem *valueItem = new QTableWidgetItem;
    valueItem->setText("10");
    table->setItem(0, 1, valueItem);

    table->horizontalHeader()->setStretchLastSection(true);
    table->setSizePolicy(QSizePolicy::Preferred, QSizePolicy::Expanding);

    dock->setWidget(table);
    addDockWidget(Qt::RightDockWidgetArea, dock);
}

P.S. if anyone knows why the column and row headers on Windows don't have any styling on them, I'd be interested to know...is this on purpose? Looks fine on Linux.

This appears to be a bug--now confirmed by multiple parties--that appeared in Qt 5.10:

https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-65592

A proposed workaround until it is fixed is given in the comments:

Calling resizeDocks({nameOfAnyDock}, {40}, Qt::Horizontal) enabled the resize to work (the exact number is irrelevant). The function is called immediately after calling addDockWidget.
