I am getting input with this here

areaInput = QtGui.QInputDialog.getText(self, "Copy Area", "New Area Name:", 0)

However I would like to make the dialog box larger, I've tried things such as

QtGui.QInputDialog.resize(400, 400)

However it says "the first argument must be a QWidget class" and I'm not quite sure what this means or how to fix it. Thanks.
