How to hide handles in QSplitter widget?

Is it possible to completely hide handles from QSplitter widget? I've tried to hide() them but it doesn't work — handles are still on the screen and isVisible() reporting false.

QSplitter::setHandleWidth doesn't work as expected — it doesn't hide handles when calling it with 0.

The inability to set a zero-width handle seems odd and might be considered a bug - but then again why would you want to? You won't be able to grab a zero-width handle so it seems to be that you really want to use a vertical/horizontal layout.

I want to “lock” layout, like locking toolbars feature in many apps.

Try; handle->splitter(num)->setEnabled(false)

I've tried it, it disables handles but no hides them unfortunately.

How bout subclassing QSplitter and overriding paintEvent(QPaintEvent*) to block actual painting of the widget?

It looks like QSplitter subclassing is the only method.
