it's basically "If True, use imageA, else, use imageB"

#

which is why I wanted the bool list

mighty frigate
#

that might work too yes, you know your needs better than me

sleek hollow
#

ok, this is definitely a lot to take in

mighty frigate
#

but I wouldn't stitch images together

sleek hollow
#

I've pretty much never dealt with painting in qt (other than that stitching example)

mighty frigate
#

It's very painful 😄

#

that's why you want the default implementation to draw most of it itself

#

ah, I probably need to go

sleek hollow
#

I'm at the point where I only have the 2 bools to worry about, so it's not that bad doing it with 1 icon, and coloured text, but yeah, if I need to implement more bool indication, it would get real messy

mighty frigate
#

yep

sleek hollow
mighty frigate
#

related to this

#

because I actually had that needs a few weeks ago

#

I also have a bit of code for delegates to return a sizeHint for each model role, and another func to return a role at a given position

#

together, it can be used by the view to know on which role the user is clicking

#

and then trigger an action

sleek hollow
mighty frigate
#

yep

sleek hollow
#

I really wish there were better model/view tutorials out there for pyqt

#

I found one a few weeks ago and it's basically become gospel to me

mighty frigate
#

anyway I'll go home now, hit me up if you need something

#

best I've found is the Qt example

sleek hollow
#

but not python 😦

mighty frigate
#

idk how it's shipped with PyQt, but it's by default when you install Qt (C++)

#

yeah :/

sleek hollow
#

This is pretty much what I've been following. There's a great tableview one too that I haven't got to yet

mighty frigate
#

looks good but it's pretty basic

#

you're already past that I think :p

sleek hollow
#

Yeah that's what I'm saying. This is the best I can find. It was excellent to get me started though to understand how to inherit the list model and what methods were required

Hello,

I try to do an action on Mongo and I get this error from Tkinter (Ik this is a poorly formed question but I'm in a bit of a rush)

bson.errors.InvalidDocument: cannot encode object: <customtkinter.widgets.ctk_entry.CTkEntry object .!ctkframe.!ctkentry>, of type: <class 'customtkinter.widgets.ctk_entry.CTkEntry'>```

I have 2 questions about tkinter python:

  1. how do I build and publish my desktop app?

  2. windows are opened with a loop, what if I want to pass data that is updating everytime? I just can pass it before the window open, when the window opens everything will get blocked due to the mainloop

fossil copper
#

If my UI shows "Hello" as text

#

and I want to change that to "Hi"

#

I have to press a button to update that

#

as I can pass in a fucntion

#

docs make more sense than i do

short badger
#

in tk can you just make a variable that holds all the formatting stuff for a type of widget then just throw that on instead of typing every detail out for each individual button

#

like xyz=(bg='blue', bd=2, fg='white', font=('calibri', 20)

import tkinter as tk 

btn_style = {'bg':'red', 'fg':'blue', 'font':('impact', 14)}

root.mainloop()

Can someone help me with understanding .parent() in PyQt? I read that it references the object from which the object whose parent I want is instantiated. Originally, I thought it would be like the relationship between parent and child class.

What if I instantiate the object from within several different classes? What does .parent() reference then?

#

the parent is some specific instance of a qobject/qwidget, you usually pass them to the object when instantiating it

@sleek hollow I was wondering, any though on what's the "best" python UX lib ?

#

since you're using Qt and you seems to also know tkinter

sleek hollow
#

I don't know a whole lot of tkinter though. Just the basics of connecting events to functions

#

I'd say PyQt/PySide is best for documentation alone

Hey, i am studdin tkinter on tutorial, and this code gives me an error in pycharm, can someone tell why?

import tkinter as tk

def increase():
    value = int(lbl_value["text"])
    lbl_value["text"] = f"{value + 1}"

def decrease():
    value = int(lbl_value["text"])
    lbl_value["text"] = f"{value - 1}"

window = tk.Tk()

window.rowconfigure(0, minsize=50, weight=1)
window.columnconfigure([0, 1, 2], minsize=50, weight=1)

btn_decrease = tk.Button(master=window, text="-", command=decrease)
btn_decrease.grid(row=0, column=0, sticky="nsew")

lbl_value = tk.Label(master=window, text="0")
lbl_value.grid(row=0, column=1)

btn_increase = tk.Button(master=window, text="+", command=increase)
btn_increase.grid(row=0, column=2, sticky="nsew")

window.mainloop()
#

Error on the line: btn_decrease = ...

#

My guess that compiller is tryin to identify lvl_value that is defined only after calling a function, and i was trying to put that line hire of btn_decrease, yet still get same error.

how to make this image automatically resize to fit the frame? (tkinter)

# The image
prevtest = ImageTk.PhotoImage(PILImage.open("test.jpg"))
# Frame

# The label to set the image in
img = Label(master=image, text="", image=prevtest)

I think it's better to resize image with an other function and call it here

It has something to do with self.graph_widget = pg.PlotWidget() because the program runs if I remove that line.

txt_name = Entry(window, width=20)
txt_name.grid(row=0, column=1)

txt_guess = Entry(window, width=20)
txt_guess.grid(row=6, column=1)

Create a listbox

lst_category.grid(row=3, column=1)

Insert items in the listbox

lst_category.insert(1, "Super Heroes")
lst_category.insert(2, "Countries")

Create a button

btn_start = Button(window, text="Start Game")
btn_start.grid(row=9, column=1)

Create a text area

atexit

The atexit module defines functions to register and unregister cleanup functions. Functions thus registered are automatically executed upon normal interpreter termination. atexit runs these functions in the reverse order in which they were registered; if you register A, B, and C, at interpreter termination time they will be run in the order C, B, A.

Note: The functions registered via this module are not called when the program is killed by a signal not handled by Python, when a Python fatal internal error is detected, or when os._exit() is called.

Changed in version 3.7: When used with C-API subinterpreters, registered functions are local to the interpreter they were registered in.

# earnest quest Does anyone else use the Model-View-Controller model for designing Tkinter apps?...

Tkinter (or tk rather) isn't made with any such pattern in mind. The most you get is virtual events, which you can use for dispatching commands from one frame to another and stringvar, intvar (used for data binding with controls like text labels etc.)
However, advanced widgets like treeview have no "data model" and "presentation" layer. Its all mixed into one. Honestly, just use PyQt its the best you can possibly get

A [`Counter`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/collections.html#collections.Counter "collections.Counter") is a [`dict`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict "dict") subclass for counting hashable objects. It is a collection where elements are stored as dictionary keys and their counts are stored as dictionary values. Counts are allowed to be any integer value including zero or negative counts. The [`Counter`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/collections.html#collections.Counter "collections.Counter") class is similar to bags or multisets in other languages.

Elements are counted from an *iterable* or initialized from another *mapping* (or counter):

```py
>>> c = Counter()                           # a new, empty counter
>>> c = Counter('gallahad')                 # a new counter from an iterable
>>> c = Counter({'red': 4, 'blue': 2})      # a new counter from a mapping
>>> c = Counter(cats=4, dogs=8)             # a new counter from keyword args

But I'm showing this to the client in the graphical interface, I'm showing in real time which products he's going to get, I want if he chooses the same product +1 time, it's grouped inside the ListBox and for that I need to delete it of the ListBox and add it again grouped

sleek hollow
#

so what are you unsure of?

#

deleting your selection?

# tulip notch

As you can see in the image, I have 2 repeated items, these items could be converted into just 1, but for that I need to know its INDEX, and that's my question

sleek hollow
#

You would need to get a list of everything in the listbox, and then check the count of those items in the list

#

honestly my approach would be:

Get a list of everything in the listbox
Delete everything in the listbox
Use the Counter to get the number display required
Add everything back to the listbox with the number

#

You would need some sort of way to parse items that have a (#) in them though

hi i really need some help, i'm trying to learn how to change the interface with QTdesigner but when i compile the ui to py all the interface gets stacked and it doesnt load the pics. since i'm a newbie i have no clue what im doing wrong, can someone help me with that?

sleek hollow

My example should work perfectly

#

is it considered bad form not to use frames in tkinter

sleek hollow
#

it depends on the complexity of your UI, but for something more advanced, you'd just be making more work for yourself by not using frames

short badger
#

i just cant figure em out so i was using coords, im only gonna be using tkinter for this class assignment though so i should be alright

sleek hollow
#

oh yeah avoid .place at all costs

#

other than like, placing a background

short badger
#

oh well dang

sleek hollow
#

you should really get used to using pack or grid

#

you don't need frames for it though

Hello! I'm trying to learn Python by creating my own Guitar Tab program. I'm currently trying to figure out a way to create something like this for a GUI. I created a mockup using Prettytables. I have the code I used in my original post here

I've tried to take the idea from Prettytables and recreate with it tkinter

from tkinter import *

    def __init__(self,root):
        
        for i in range(total_rows):

                            font=('Arial',16,'bold'))
                
                self.e.grid(row=i, column=j)
                self.e.insert(END, lst[i][j])

# take the data
lst = [('e','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','',''),
    ('B','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','',''),
    ('G','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','',''),

    ('A','','','','','','','','','','','','','','','',''),

# find total number of rows and
# columns in list
total_rows = len(lst)
total_columns = len(lst[0])

# create root window
root = Tk()

I'm really inexperienced with tkinter so I may have just ordered things wrong

sleek hollow
#

the command parameter takes a function as its argument

#

so it should be command=generate instead of command=generate()

#

the lambda isn't even needed for the buttonexit command either

#

it could just be command=root.quit

tight hill
#

@sacred solar if you want to give arguments to the function then

command = lambda:func(a,b))

And if function doesn't takes any arguments then

command=func

That's it

sacred solar
#

generate()?

#

It doesn't take arguments but I just applied lambda to it and now it works

sleek hollow
#

but you're basically solving a problem you made for yourself

#

instead of command=lambda: generate(), just do command=generate

with so many options for gui's, how does one choose? I mean, what are things more generally one might think about or consider to pick one over another?

reef solstice
#

portability, size, performance, compatibility etc.

#

oh and time-to-production

teal fable
#

are there any good sites or articles that compare those things? I mean, time to production is probably based a little on me (and my lack of skill coding a gui) but some of those other things should be more measurable

reef solstice
#

Been searching for one to link you but none of them seem comprehensive enough 😅

#

But some popular choices to consider: GTK Qt Tauri Electron (not exhaustive)

teal fable
#

ha! fair enough. Sometimes python simply has too many options! lol

reef solstice
#

If your expertise lies in Python, Qt and GTK are your best bet (ymmv)

teal fable
#

gotcha. Thanks! So far, I've been exploring (TKinter, Kivy, DearPyGui, PySimpleGui and Textual) When I looked at QT, I got a bit confused with the seemingly several different versions

#

but I'm not sure how even the ones I'm looking at really compare (except that Textual is for the console)

reef solstice
#

If we take a step back and think about what the GUI app will be doing, what things it will offer, and the scope of audience (level of technicality, operating systems) we could narrow down or leave out a couple options based on that assessment

#

I'm probably only saying this because I teach CS units and make students think about the overall scope of their dev projects before they dive in

I'd like the end user to be able to connect to 2 systems and I'll list the items and they can select and clone. They may be running Windows or Mac. I have written (or already know how to write the backend part of all that) but picking a front-end framework is new to me. But, I'm also hoping to learn more about classes in this process. Though that last bit is for me and not entirely necessary 🙂

#

I also don't NEED mobile support for this (in case that factors in)

I want to implement "save project" via PyQt5. It should take all project relevant files and export them into a folder.

How should I best implement that?

Let the user choose a directory via .getExistingDirectory and then put all files in that directory, letting the user handle creation of the directory.

Use .saveFileName to let the user specify a folder name, create that folder and save everything in there.

spring sinew
#

The latter would probably be quite a bit of fiddling around to cover cases where the user does not choose a directory but a file etc.

I think the former seems like a best practice

I would let them choose a general save direcrory and for each save create a subfolder named after the project which contains all the files.

This makes it easy to have multiple saves, but still lets the user choose the general directory (and more importantly the drive).

You could even go one beyond and save each project as an sqlite database(one db file for each new save). Essentially using sqlite as a save file format.

Many applications do that, but it is somewhat more advanced and requires more work https://sqlite.org/appfileformat.html

If I am using MVC with Tkinter, where would I declare control variables? View or controller?

Or should both have their own set?

patent dome
# somber hemlock If I am using MVC with Tkinter, where would I declare control variables? View or...

In an MVC (Model-View-Controller) architecture, control variables should typically be declared in the controller. The controller is responsible for managing the data and the interactions between the model (which represents the data and the business logic) and the view (which presents the data to the user and handles user input).

In a Tkinter application, the control variables could be declared as instance variables of the controller class. This would allow them to be accessed and modified by various methods in the controller as needed to manage the state of the application and to update the model and the view as necessary.

The view, on the other hand, should not typically have its own set of control variables. Instead, it should simply display the data provided to it by the controller and pass user input back to the controller for handling.

It is important to keep the separation of responsibilities between the model, the view, and the controller clear in an MVC architecture to ensure that the application is well-organized and maintainable.

# somber hemlock Yes, I have been successful with it for the most part till now. Should I favour ...

It is generally a good idea to favor using events and control variable listeners over views directly calling controller methods. This is because it can help to decouple the various components of your application, making it easier to change or modify one component without affecting the others.

Using events and control variable listeners can also make it easier to test your application, as you can more easily isolate the various components and test them in isolation.

However, it is ultimately up to you to decide how to structure your application and which approach is best suited to your needs. It is worth considering the trade-offs between different approaches and choosing the one that works best for your particular use case.

somber hemlock
# patent dome It is generally a good idea to favor using events and control variable listeners...

Where should I bind views to their controllers? I have this directory structure:

app (top level directory)
---> __init__.py
---> __main__.py
---> views
-------> __init__.py
-------> app.py
-------> tree.py
-------> menu.py
---> controllers
-------> __init__.py
-------> app.py
-------> tree.py
-------> menu.py

Instead of making my app.views.app.App a tk.Tk instance, I have made it a Frame and do all the windowing work in __main__.py
The main controller is (ofc) bound in __main__.py but what about tree's controller? or menu's controller?

However if you are using Qt already, why not stick to its own (cross platform) resource system?

I created a small canvas by subclassing QGraphicsView. I am able to create rectangles on it by clicking on the canvas. I can also turn the rectangles movable by setting .ItemIsMovable.

The problem is that it's very hard to grab onto a rectangle if I redefine the mousePressEvent method since I pretty much need to grab onto the pixel on which I created the rectangle.

Is there some way where I can create rectangles just by pressing onto the canvas while keeping the original behaviour of .ItemIsMovable?

I personally like to use QStackedWidget instead of QTabWidget for things like this

dark ibex
#

hmmm

sleek hollow
#

They're similar in behaviour, but you can use whatever you want to trigger the "tabs" changing

#

the stacked widget holds all the "pages" you want to display, and then you trigger an event to switch to a different "page" in the stack when you click those buttons

dark ibex
#

ill look into that

#

im still pretty new to this

#

but can i just make a click event of the frame?

sleek hollow
#

yes

#

I would make it a custom class if you haven't already

#

that makes it much easier to connect the stack widget to an attribute of your "tab buttons"

dark ibex
#

right now they arent really buttons, its 3 different objects. a frame a icon and a label, is there a way to sort of, group them together?

@sleek hollow but then how do i actually style stuff your way?

dark ibex

i cant get it to work on my code

#

thats why i wanted to try another way

I think having an understanding of widgets and subclassing first is important before you can really proceed

but any styling you applying in the TabButton class will be applied to all your tabs

@somber hemlock Okay I rewrote the code but left out the raise exception thingy cuz it's pointless to show. I'll walk you through my disaster. It would be much easier if I could share my screen tho but here we go

#

First of all, I'm coding on my phone so lol

#

Second-, you see line 6? Yeah idk if that cget() function is broken or what but, that whole if statement always returns False even tho I have orient set to HORIZONTAL for the instance. So it always gets sent to the else statement regardless of orient and both scrollbars (horizontal and vertical) gets packed to the right of the screen in a weird glitchy way.

#

But I found my own solution to this problem. Just ditch the "single class 2 instances" problem and make 2 dedicated scrollbar classes for horizontal and vertical

#

Which brings about the birth of this madness

#

This way I don't have to use the broken cget() function

#

And it actually works better but now there's a new problem

#

The horizontal scrollbar does NOT span the whole bottom of the screen as it should

#

It still works tho... weirdly enough

#

In the single class version it didn't even work so it's an improvement and this was actually when I asked for help. Now I just need help to pack it on the screen properly

#

That "wtf" is pointing to the horizontal scrollbar

#

Because wtf

#

I look at my code and I don't see why it does this

#

The above screenshot is to confirm that they're both in a frame called canvas_frame and thus should be packed on the screen in different positions in the canvas_frame

#

I know this works because before I tried doing the auto hide scrollbar, it was perfectly placed on the screen. Now idk what the difference is

#

And that's all

@somber hemlock It works on grid. Atleast with my double classes

#

Finally

arctic elk
#

I've done it. I've finally defeated tkinter. As it turns out, cget() returns a class tkinterobj(can't remember exact name) while VERTICAL and HORIZONTAL returns a string. So if you do self.cget('orient') == HORIZONTAL , it will always return False no matter what because they're not the same type. But my big brain figured it out. The type() function ain't half bad. All that's left is to pass the obj into the str() method and boom. Suddenly everything works with only 1 class needed and grid geometry

Even tho this not a lot of code, it is still hard to read. Even if I were able to read it, I don't know anything about whatever module you're using

inland wedge
#

i dont think the way youve written the lambda function is correct either, if you want it to run the setCurrentWidget function then then just pass that without arguments. You are also connecting the button twice

vale wadi

oh yes, but its works, but the button need be clicked two times for work

is anyone familier with flet, if so how good is it to start building apps, cause right now I have been using pyqt for some time now and kinda want to move on to "something better hopefully", although pyqt is good it's just that there's limitation to making good ui designs aswell as functionaly, mainly i wanna move into building apps for andriod and ios aswell not just desktop

somber hemlock
tulip venture
#

since flutter is good i assumed it's the same

#

but for python

somber hemlock
#

Flet is good although new. Its definitely more pythonic than pyqt if that matters to you

#

Plus the distribution size of flet is smaller, pyqt packs in a shit ton of crap the end user will never need

#

You might run into situations where there isn't simply a widget you'd need in flet. That won't happen in pyqt

tulip venture
tulip venture
#

also pyqt don't got ios and andriod i think

#

that's also why

somber hemlock
tulip venture
#

it's good i have build many cool apps with it

#

i just finished building this

#

using pyqt

#

and it's quite good

#

just wanna start bulding for ios and andriod

somber hemlock
#

You cannot seprate UI into separate files in Flet but that's not a good idea anyway in Python. It requires good IDE support (like .NET UI frameworks have for example)

tulip venture
somber hemlock
tulip venture
#

and made a listwidget

#

u can view it here

somber hemlock
#

Good

tulip venture
#

like pyqt is good it's just cause i was playing around with flet and saw that it's a good pacakge to build apps, although new
if i get to know more about flet earlier once they start adding new things i can be ahead and start making cool things

somber hemlock
#

Honestly not a lot of people give a shit about Python for non AI/ML tasks. Its still got that LUA status as "just another scripting language that can be embedded in a proper desktop app"

tulip venture
#

oh yea that's why im learning c++ also

#

just cause it's way faster, also cause i wanna look into building games aswell

#
  • flutter uses c++ i think
#

well dart but c++ aslo

somber hemlock
#

C++ isn't the best option, Flutter can use C++ but Dart is a much better choice

tulip venture
somber hemlock
#

Dart is a better choice for flutter exclusively

#

Since that's what it uses

tulip venture
#

true

somber hemlock
#

I don't know any other use of dart

#

Its like a kotlin competitor

tulip venture
#

yeah i might look into dart later on right now im just playing around with gui apps

#

like legit i find myself curious to build more off gui apps than websites idk why lol

#

btw do u got any idea on apps i can build legit it can be anything

somber hemlock
#

C++ GUI libs are stable and mature, but only Qt can look modern enough.

tulip venture
#

i've been looking for a app to build but haven't found any good ideas

tulip venture
somber hemlock
#

If you are out of ideas and good enough at what you do, you can drop a listing at fiverr. Get some paid work instead.

tulip venture
somber hemlock
#

Use your github as a resume of sorts

tulip venture
#

just wanted to build few things for my winter breaks

tulip venture
somber hemlock
#

For fiverr i meant

tulip venture
#

oh it's quite competitive though, like i don't wanna work for someone although i don't mind making a app for someone for free

#

idk fiverr is too much hassle

#

if u got any idea let me know pls 🙂

#

i can build something for u idk

somber hemlock
#

I got an idea

#

You can make a gui for pip

tulip venture
somber hemlock
#

Idk how useful that will be, but its a good idea either way

somber hemlock
#

You can add stuff like venv creation and autoupdater as well. Lots of tools you can integrate

soo im using PySimpleGUI and i wanna know if its possible to only allow the user to put a single character in an input

tulip venture
#

any other ideas aha

tulip venture
somber hemlock
clear crown
tulip venture
#

that's one approach

tulip venture
clear crown
#

i thought it had a built in thing

#

it has one for password chars

tulip venture

The real deal is with SaaS tho. Make something which runs with a cloud backend.

clear crown
tulip venture
tulip venture
#

so i might not be able to do that

#

aha

clear crown
tulip venture
#

r u asking if im only front-end?

clear crown
#

yes

#

dev = developer

tulip venture
#

no im not front end dev, i just haven't made any cloud system so prob gotta look into that, although i have played with google cloud firebase

btw what r u building using pysimplegui

clear crown
# tulip venture btw what r u building using pysimplegui

i made an auto clicker not so long ago and with the new 3.11 update its alot faster, (this is the speed of it now compared to the 65CPS on older versions) so im adding a GUI to it, and im too lazy to do it with tkinter, too much work for just a small GUI

image.png
tulip venture
#

can i see how the gui is turning out

clear crown
#

just lazy

#

and i just wanted to make it as small as possible

tulip venture
#

well nvm i haven't used pysimplegui

#

so idk aha

clear crown
tulip venture
#

i like it

#

btw did the function work

clear crown
tulip venture
#

for character

clear crown
tulip venture
#

what other apps have u made, just curious

#

was looking into making some apps aswell for myself just want to look for ideas

#

aha

clear crown
clear crown
#

good for when im too lazy

tulip venture
#

just got done making this

#

i didn't have to bother coding in the gui

#

i made this using pyqt

clear crown
tulip venture
#

i made this aswell it's quizlet content grabber and u can test urself with it

#

and stuff

clear crown
#

the reason it was so big was cuz it had so many windows and so much coding

#

wait brb

tulip venture
clear crown
clear crown
tulip venture
#

u can look here

clear crown
#

i will

clear crown
tulip venture
#

u can look over the code

#

it's under quizzerr

clear crown
#

hmmmmmmm, is this what i think it is

image.png
tulip venture
#

no

#

pip install PyQt5

clear crown
#

no no

#

im saying is it what i think it is

#

a PyQt for PySimpleGUI

tulip venture
clear crown
#

HMM

tulip venture
#

aha i told u i haven't used pysimplegui

#

although i heard it's somewhat similar

clear crown
#

well idc if PyQt5 is better then, that it is

#

its basically a simplified Tkinter

#

more options and more starter-friendly too

tulip venture
#

i guess

#

btw check dm 🙂

tulip venture
#

if anyone got any projects ideas preferbally a GUI app ( or even if someone want me to build you a app just for fun for free ) let me know ideas on what to build: ( am doing it to improve i guess )

Yeah, I brought them into 1 file and it runs just fine

no errors

so i was creating a gui with qtdesigner

and was have this error

in every windows that i was creating

sleek hollow
#

did you convert the .ui file into a .py file?

vale wadi
#

yeah

sleek hollow
#

you end up with really messy code when you do that

#

you're better off just leaving it as a .ui file and loading it

vale wadi
#

uhum...

#

but i can acess the functions the same way?

sleek hollow
#

yes of course

vale wadi
#

ok i will try here

sleek hollow
#

just make sure you name the objects in designer so you can access them from code

#

they'll automatically be created as instance attributes for whatever class you load them into

vale wadi
#

but for use my .ui in my main.py with class how i do?

sleek hollow
#

Ui_MainWindow will load the ui file

#

not main

vale wadi
#

its very confused for me, sorry

#

i have this files:

sleek hollow
#

Even though designer makes things easier to create a ui, I highly recommend at least learning the basics of pyqt first. You should be able to build a simple ui on your own without designer

#

it will make everything so much easier to understand

vale wadi
#

right

#

but in case i have tela.ui

#

need convert for .py?

sleek hollow
#

no

# 
from PyQt5 import QtWidgets, uic

class Ui(QtWidgets.QMainWindow):

    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        uic.loadUi('tela.ui', self)
#

since self is an argument of .loadUi, your Ui instance will hold all the attributes of the ui objects

#

so if you made a button in your ui and named it my_button, then you can now access it from this class with self.my_button

vale wadi
#

oh right

#

thanks i will test here

#

it worked, I didn't know it was possible to load .ui like that, thank you very much my friend for your help and patience.

sleek hollow
#

np 🙂

vale wadi
#

my friend other question

#

before i was acessing its using self.ui.pushButton for example

#

now how i do?

sleek hollow
vale wadi
#

yeah

sleek hollow
#

can you show the full code?

vale wadi
#

ok

# 
class Login(QtWidgets.QMainWindow):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        uic.loadUi('interface/tela_login.ui', self)
    
        
    def login(self):
        caracteres = "[']')(\|,<.>;:/?~^}][{=+-_*&¨%$#@!"

        senha = self.uic.lineEdit_login_senha.text()
        lembrar = self.ui.checkBox_login_lembrar.isChecked()
#

this is my new code, using .ui but self.ui.lineEdit dont works

sleek hollow
#

where is Ui_MainWindow?

vale wadi
# sleek hollow you've completely changed your class names 
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QMainWindow, QMessageBox

#

this is my old code using the ui in .py

sleek hollow
#

ok but you don't have a Ui_MainWindow class anymore

vale wadi
#

yes

sleek hollow
#

when you load the .ui file, the attributes attach themselves to whatever class instances loads the file

#

self.ui = Ui_MainWindow()

#

you're still trying to load in Ui_MainWindow, which doesn't seem to exist anymore

vale wadi

uhm...

#

but how i acess the atributtes

they will exist in whatever class loads the ui

senha = self.uic.lineEdit_login_senha.text()

also you have self.uic here

which is a typo

it should be self.ui

do you can help me?

when I click on the button selected in red I need to duplicate the fields above, how do I do this so that the user can view the fields and then save?

in the case when adding the button you must keep the top buttons and duplicate the fields below it

I honestly don't really use qtdesigner all that much

I would do it all myself in code

It would be much simpler if you made a class for the fields, and then simply instance a new one into the layout above whenever you click the button
