I am new with Qt so I got stuck with GUI update.
I have 2 classes : `ControlWidget` in main thread and `CameraController` in the separate thread. 

```
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    QApplication app(argc, argv);
    CameraController *cameraController = new CameraController;;
    ControlWidget *main_window = new ControlWidget;
    Thread getImageThread; 
    cameraController->moveToThread(&getImageThread);
    getImageThread.start();
    QTimer get_images_timer;
    QObject::connect(&get_images_timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), cameraController, SLOT(onTimerOut()), Qt::QueuedConnection);
    QObject::connect(cameraController, SIGNAL(sendLabel(QImage)), main_window, SLOT(getImage(QImage)), Qt::QueuedConnection);
    QObject::connect(&get_images_timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), main_window, SLOT(update()), Qt::QueuedConnection);
    get_images_timer.start(2000);
    app.exec();
    return 0;
}

```

So every 2 seconds I want to get images from camera thread and send them to main thread (that actionally happens, so I have `QImage` at the main\_window object). 
Then I want to put this QImage to the cam1 and cam2 `QLabel`. And here I am stuck:

First: when I use `setPixmap()` method the `QLabel.width()` and `QLabel.height()` are different then `image.width()` and `image.height()` or `pixmap.width()` and `pixmap.height()`.

Second: I can not visualize the `QLabel`. If I do `this->ImageLayout->addWidget(cam1)` nothing really happens. `this->update` doesn't help either.

Shall I have an extra worker for GUI Update? What am I doing wrong?
