You can call setBackgroundRole() in the widget's __init__() method if you want.

When a band is resized, the total amount of space taken up by the bands changes, but the size of the window itself doesn't change, so what you really want is a viewport onto a canvas or widget containing the bands. > I hope this all makes sense.

This might be a bit of a tricky starting project because I'm not sure that QSplitter can do what you want out of the box. My initial idea was to put a QSplitter into a QScrollArea and add widgets to it, but that doesn't work as desired because QSplitter always tries to reduce the space taken up by one widget when you increase the size of another.
