QTreeView, scrolling and single column...[Qt4.1.1]

Folks,

We've got a QTreeView with a hierarchy
of items and there is only one column. This QTreeView is placed into a
dock widget and it looks fine. But, as the tree is expanded, the text of
the items are displayed as elided (e.g.  Foo..., Illog...). We are
using a custom delegate and the text width is computed properly and it
is within the drawDisplay routine that the text is elided.

Our question is how can we turn off
this behavior? We want the QTreeView to scroll horizontally for the item
text, not truncate. I would think that a QTreeView with one column would
allow scrolling within the 'column'.

I have tried calling resizeColumnToContents()
when the tree is expanded and that does compute a wider column width, but
still no scroll bar appears.  In trying the simpletreemodel example,
only when the window is small enough to hide the second column does the
horizontal scroll appear. 

Any clues would be helpful,

thanks,
