My first suggestion is to use Qt Designer to create your GUIs. Typing them out yourself sucks, takes more time, and you will definitely make more mistakes than Qt Designer. Here are some PyQt tutorials to help get you on the right track. The first one in the list is where you should start. A … Read more
I’ve figured out the issue, apparently Pylint doesn’t load any C extensions by default, because those can run arbitrary code. So I found that if you create a system file in your project directory with the file named .pylintrc the rc file can whitelist this package to stop throwing errors by adding the following code … Read more
The blocking tasks are not friendly with the event loop where the GUI is executed as they prevent the normal tasks that the GUI performs such as ticket checking, redrawing, etc. from being executed. The solution in these cases is to use thread to execute the blocking task and use the signals to send the … Read more
I think you are confusing that you have created a widget called plotWidge in Qt Designer and you doing self.plotWidget = FigureCanvas(fig) are replacing it (even if the names coincide that action is not the one done), so that it does not cause confusion change plotWidge to content_plot in Qt Designer so the plotWidget must … Read more
Ref: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qscreen.html#grabWindow You say you require a screenshot of a window, therefore screenshot = screen.grabWindow(0, 0, 0, 100, 100) is not the appropriate call here, since it captures the entire screen, cropped according to the final 4 parameters. (the 100 parameters are width and height). screenshot = screen.grabWindow( widget.winId() ) captures the widget window. However, … Read more
I figured it out. Here’s what I ended up with in case it can help someone else. #!/usr/bin/python # -*- coding: latin-1 -*- import sys import base64 from PyQt4.QtGui import * from PyQt4.QtCore import * from PyQt4.QtWebKit import * from PyQt4 import QtNetwork class Render(QWebPage): def __init__(self, url): self.app = QApplication(sys.argv) username=”username” password = ‘password’ … Read more
When first trying pyqt4 and pyqt5 and the pycharm IDE I had many problems with imports. (although the imports had no prob running from IDLE) Eventually after much stuffing around, uninstalling and reinstalling, (including dependencies) the imports sorted themselves out. Did you install pyqt5 using an installer from the pyqt website? You must. Qt designer … Read more
You should have a file called resource.qrc, this must be converted to .py, this or you can do it by executing: pyrcc5 resource.qrc -o resource_rc.py
(Ubuntu) I’ve created a ~/.pylintrc file and added there [MASTER] extension-pkg-whitelist=PyQt5 It is more convenient. And now pylint applies this configuration even in my Visual Studio Code editor. Or in VSCode settings: “python.linting.pylintArgs”: [ “–extension-pkg-whitelist=PyQt5” ],
Mainly I use the following command under the cmd pip install pyqt5 And it works with no problem!
