Currently the only way to stack widgets on top of each other in a layout is to use a container widget without a layout inside of a layout. There are a couple of problems with this approach.
It is not the most obvious approach, which leads to people not knowing how to do it.
Proper minimum sizes need to be set on the container widget without a layout, or else the widget can be cut off. This can be confusing to new and experienced developers.
The widgets inside the container widget without a layout do not scale with the rest of the page. This leads to the finished product not behaving as nicely as desired.
Describe the solution you'd like
Adding a layout option for PyDMFrames and/or a layout that allows stacking widgets in the same cell would make development faster, easier, and less confusing. Additionally, the pages developed with pydm would be a lot cleaner, as the stacked widgets would properly scale.
