Subject:    can't get qgraphicsgridlayout to resize properly

I've got a Plasma::Applet containing a QGraphicsGridLayout, which has a couple 
of QGraphicsWidgets (QLabels via QGraphicsProxyWidget).

The text in my layout gets updated periodically after running an external 
process, but I can't quite get the resizing to work properly.  I've attached a 
similar example, with a layout containing two QPushButtons.

I try to adjust the height of the buttons, layout, AND the Applet, but nothing 
I've tried will make the buttons taller.  It sounds like maybe I'm missing 
something about QSizePolicy, but I'm not sure.

Can someone please explain the relationship between Plasma::Applet and 
QLayout, and why the attached code does not make the buttons taller?  As you 
can see from the .cpp, I've tried most/all things I could find.

Thanks!
