## Detailed Description

A size is specified by a width() and a height(). It can be set in the constructor and changed using the setWidth(), setHeight(), or scale() functions, or using arithmetic operators. A size can also be manipulated directly by retrieving references to the width and height using the rwidth() and rheight() functions. Finally, the width and height can be swapped using the transpose() function.

The isValid() function determines if a size is valid (a valid size has both width and height greater than or equal to zero). The isEmpty() function returns `true` if either of the width and height is less than, or equal to, zero, while the isNull() function returns `true` only if both the width and the height is zero.

Use the expandedTo() function to retrieve a size which holds the maximum height and width of this size and a given size. Similarly, the boundedTo() function returns a size which holds the minimum height and width of this size and a given size.

QSize objects can be streamed as well as compared.

See also QSizeF, QPoint, and QRect.

## Member Function Documentation

### `[constexpr noexcept]` QSize QSize::grownBy(QMargins margins) const

Returns the size that results from growing this size by margins.

See also shrunkBy().

### `[constexpr noexcept]` QSize QSize::shrunkBy(QMargins margins) const

Returns the size that results from shrinking this size by margins.

See also grownBy().

### `[constexpr noexcept]` QSize::QSize()

Constructs a size with an invalid width and height (i.e., isValid() returns `false`).

See also isValid().

### `[constexpr noexcept]` QSize::QSize(int width, int height)

Constructs a size with the given width and height.

See also setWidth() and setHeight().

### `[constexpr noexcept]` QSize QSize::boundedTo(const QSize &otherSize) const

Returns a size holding the minimum width and height of this size and the given otherSize.

See also expandedTo() and scale().

### `[constexpr noexcept]` QSize QSize::expandedTo(const QSize &otherSize) const

Returns a size holding the maximum width and height of this size and the given otherSize.

See also boundedTo() and scale().

### `[constexpr noexcept]` int QSize::height() const

Returns the height.

See also width() and setHeight().

### `[constexpr noexcept]` bool QSize::isEmpty() const

Returns `true` if either of the width and height is less than or equal to 0; otherwise returns `false`.

See also isNull() and isValid().

### `[constexpr noexcept]` bool QSize::isNull() const

Returns `true` if both the width and height is 0; otherwise returns false.

See also isValid() and isEmpty().

### `[constexpr noexcept]` bool QSize::isValid() const

Returns `true` if both the width and height is equal to or greater than 0; otherwise returns `false`.

See also isNull() and isEmpty().

### `[constexpr noexcept]` int &QSize::rheight()

Returns a reference to the height.

Using a reference makes it possible to manipulate the height directly. For example:

     QSize size(100, 10);
     size.rheight() += 5;

     // size becomes (100,15)

See also rwidth() and setHeight().

### `[constexpr noexcept]` int &QSize::rwidth()

Returns a reference to the width.

Using a reference makes it possible to manipulate the width directly. For example:

     QSize size(100, 10);
     size.rwidth() += 20;

     // size becomes (120,10)

See also rheight() and setWidth().

### `[noexcept]` void QSize::scale(int width, int height, Qt::AspectRatioMode mode)

Scales the size to a rectangle with the given width and height, according to the specified mode:

- If mode is Qt::IgnoreAspectRatio, the size is set to (width, height).
- If mode is Qt::KeepAspectRatio, the current size is scaled to a rectangle as large as possible inside (width, height), preserving the aspect ratio.
- If mode is Qt::KeepAspectRatioByExpanding, the current size is scaled to a rectangle as small as possible outside (width, height), preserving the aspect ratio.

Example:

     QSize t1(10, 12);
     t1.scale(60, 60, Qt::IgnoreAspectRatio);
     // t1 is (60, 60)

     QSize t2(10, 12);
     t2.scale(60, 60, Qt::KeepAspectRatio);
     // t2 is (50, 60)

     QSize t3(10, 12);
     t3.scale(60, 60, Qt::KeepAspectRatioByExpanding);
     // t3 is (60, 72)

See also setWidth(), setHeight(), and scaled().
