[oak hearth]

thank you

[magic ridge]

Is it the okay button inside the error_win() function?

[oak hearth]

yes

[magic ridge]

The back button is implemented slightly differently than then "OK" button. The back button uses TopLevel(), which is the correct thing to do. The "Ok" button uses Tk() which you do not want. You only want one Tk() instance running per application.

[oak hearth]

oh thank you

now i get it

[oak hearth]

hello guys its me again.
can I use tkinters scrollbar while using place method. if there is can you guys recommend me a good tutorial on that. Help would be appreciated!

[sleek arrow]

aint nah way bro

just put the scrollbar shit in a frame in then just use place on the frame

[heady citrus]

@odd glacier

[heady citrus]

what's that

oh it loaded now wait lemme see

[odd glacier]

see how scaling is ocky

[heady citrus]

yeaah

show me the output

[odd glacier]

of?

[heady citrus]

the code

[odd glacier]

ya mean this

we love my prints

dont stress

[heady citrus]

this is fucken up is crazy 😭✋

[odd glacier]

It was yesterday

It was running twice

It ain't anymore

[heady citrus]

that's good

[odd glacier]

Well I have set_active_tab

And open_tab_set_window

I was calling open_tab then set active

But open tab set calls set active

[heady citrus]

i see

[odd glacier]

But yeah everything is customizable so far

[heady citrus]

i know very little bout coding for uis but keep me updated man

[heady citrus]

UIs*

[odd glacier]

all done in tkinter

[heady citrus]

also btw if you're looking for a good font for the ui, choose SF Pro Display

[odd glacier]

I can't lie I was gonna use Segoie

Seguioe?

[heady citrus]

segoe ui

[odd glacier]

The vs code one

[heady citrus]

no pls

sf pro display will be better trust me

[odd glacier]

I was gonna make it changeable to be honest

Just list all fonts

[heady citrus]

do that

the users will love you

if you add an option to customize ui font

[odd glacier]

Ofc I will there's so much shit to do

[heady citrus]

some apps/launchers dont give that option and istg its so annoying man 😭

[odd glacier]

Doing plug in support

[heady citrus]

thats crazy

in a good way

[heady citrus]

just hmu if you're looking for the font list
i will give you the best hand picked fonts' list

[odd glacier]

Well for adding to menu

editor.add_menu_item( "BMT Options", self.run_bmt_options )

I even have started work on a syntax checker

Runs through code in the open window

And says this looks wrong to me, are you sure?

[heady citrus]

sounds cool

[heady citrus]

make it something more unhinged
smth like "quit programming already your code is wrong"

💀

💀

💀 _ _

-# 💀

[odd glacier]

Well I so far have stored all while loops

And the lines in them

If while loop does not have waittill or wait notify

It's been rough

Next is if line ends with ; but starts with if function while for else

[heady citrus]

continue

[odd glacier]

Continue ends in ;

[heady citrus]

no bruh i said "continue" as in go on 😭

[odd glacier]

if( value == value2 ) {
continue;
}

[odd glacier]

Ohhhhhh lol

[heady citrus]

😭

[odd glacier]

But yeah there's fuck loads of syntaxing things to check

[heady citrus]

average programmer experience lmao

[heady citrus]

is that you in your pfp?

[odd glacier]

if function is defined but not called

Nah it's fraz

From the bbcc

[heady citrus]

who's that

[odd glacier]

Bad boy chiller crew

[heady citrus]

why did his eyes getting pulled together while wearing the mask?

[heady citrus]

i could never man 😭

sounds like a LOTTA work

but dont give up

you're doing great now

[odd glacier]

problem is how do i release it

with a batch?

@echo off

echo Installing customtkinter...
pip install customtkinter

if errorlevel 1 (
    echo Failed to install customtkinter. Exiting...
    pause
    exit /b
)
echo Running main.py...
python "%USERPROFILE%\main.py"

pause

i had this for somet else

[heady citrus]

i got no idea brother

[odd glacier]

well that install custom tkinter then runs the script

[odd glacier]

so this works anyways

so the treeview is simple

whats shown in the treeview is self.workingpath

it populates the tree by either if the item selected starts with u"\u00AC" we remove suffix and add that to self.workingpath

if the user clicks go back
we take that away

could i have done cascading file tree, yes, will i down the line, maybe, right now its made to be working in a specific folder

.csc and .gsc files

^ no

[clear orbit]

Hey guys, I’ve developed a Python program in Spyder for the company I work for and now they want to use it. They’ve asked me to create a basic user interface for the program. I don’t have any experience with UI development, so I’m looking for some advice on where to start. I’ve heard that integrating the program with Excel could be an option.

[sleek hollow]

I'd say it largely depends on your current experience with python and how much time you're willing to dedicate to learning UI

[odd glacier]

@snow folio

[mossy forge]

So, I have a question. When using PySide, is there an easy option to create a shortcut that would listen for specific key combination even when window would have been out of focus?

[cosmic dove]

Want one a shopping menu look like for tkinter?

[heady cave]

you can use qhotkey i think

        qhotkey.register_hotkey(self, qhotkey.HotKey(0, "Ctrl+Shift+S"), self.whatever_function

[mossy forge]

That doesn't look like it's a thing at all

Or at the very least I'm not able to find any documentation about it

[royal gull]

The thing is that it's not a feature in Qt afaik. So you'd need to use another library.

QHotkey is one of a few Qt-idiomatic utilities for it. But it's primarily used in C++, I'm not sure if there's a Python binding. There's one called PyQxtGlobalShortcut but it hasn't been maintained in a while (only seems to be for Qt 5, for one).

[mossy forge]

Yea, I've found the C++ one, but I haven't seen anything for python

[royal gull]

Of course, you can always just use a traditional keyboard module like pynput. Looks like it has global hotkeys.

[mossy forge]

It doesn't seem to be working well with PySide

[royal gull]

!paste Can you share a small example of how you're setting it up?

[proven basin]

Pasting large amounts of code

If your code is too long to fit in a codeblock in Discord, you can paste your code here:
https://paste.pythondiscord.com/

After pasting your code, save it by clicking the Paste! button in the bottom left, or by pressing CTRL + S. After doing that, you will be navigated to the new paste's page. Copy the URL and post it here so others can see it.

[mossy forge]

well, for now I just added it like it was shown in the link you've posted, but here's most of my main.py file:

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app, overlay, setup, master, worker = setup_application(path=os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)), cuda=cuda.is_available())
    with keyboard.GlobalHotKeys({
        '<ctrl>+<shift>+t': setup.toggle_overlay}) as t:
        t.join()
    sys.exit(app.exec())

for context, setup_application handles (among few other things) creating QWidgets that would display the app

[royal gull]

Seems like keyboard creates its own thread with threading. join() effectively waits for the thread to terminate. So yeah, you probably want to set the hotkeys inside the main widget itself and manually start and stop the thread.

[mossy forge]

Makes sense. Anyway I to do it as you said and now it almost works

But for some reason something works differently when calling the method via the hotkey rather than via QPushButton

And I'm not sure why

[royal gull]

I'll assume they're calling the same thing? Can you share what it's calling?

[mossy forge]

That's gonna be a bit hard, because it's not just a method. It's a method that calls a different method that emits a signal that activates a method on a different thread and starts a timer to periodically emit a different signal

If you want I can post a link to my GitHub repo with it

[royal gull]

Sure.

[mossy forge]

It's probably quite a bit messy, so I'm gonna apologize in advance, but here
https://github.com/Lemiru/jp-to-en-translation-overlay/blob/main/app/QT.py

anyway, the method in question is toggle_overlay of the class SetupWindow

and I tried implementing hotkey by adding this

self.hotkey = keyboard.GlobalHotKeys({'<ctrl>+<shift>+t': self.toggle_overlay})
self.hotkey.start()

at the end of the __init__ method and this

self.hotkey.stop()

at the start of closeEvent method

[royal gull]

What happens when using the hotkey as opposed to pressing the push button?

[mossy forge]

Well, normally, the TranslationWorker should run verify_and_load_models and then periodically run translate

When using hotkey though, it only runs verify_and_load_models

[royal gull]

Have you checked if exclusively using the hotkey works (as in not interacting with the push button at all)? I'm suspecting this might have to do with how QTimers work with threads.

[mossy forge]

It doesn't

Also, if that changes anything, the QTimer is not running on that thread with the TranslationWorker

Ah

"Because of this, you must start and stop the timer in its thread; it is not possible to start a timer from another thread."

That's possibly the issue

As the method is probably called from the thread the pynput uses

[royal gull]

Yeah, I recently helped someone with a similar issue where they wanted to set a timer interval while it was running but from a different thread to where that was happening. I suggested as a workaround to use a singleshot timer and simply call timer.start in the timeout slot as if it were a typical timer (since that should hopefully take care of the thread affinity thing mentioned in the page). In this case, yeah, you can also try moving the timer to the translation worker and using signals to interact with it from the GUI (which would probably work better).

[mossy forge]

Moving it to the translation worker isn't really an ideal solution as I first need do few things in the OverlayWindow before I can run the method on the worker

And I'm not even sure if that would have even solved that

I guess an alternative would have been to have the timer always ticking and innstead just having a boolean that would have told the method to do nothing when it is set

[zealous hatch]

Even though its a private tool, I was hoping to get some feedback as I'm new to front end UI development being a data scientist. I still want to improve in all areas I try.

in order; main window, CSV file options popup, source options dropdown, format options dropdown, analysis dropdown.
(if Im using the word dropdown correctly to describe an integrated window that loads when you click a tab?)

I haven't looked at any graphic design stuff and this is only like my third UI.

[royal gull]

Looks okay, probably wouldn't change too much. Maybe choose a darker blue or make the text color darker, that should contrast better.

[royal gull]

Fair enough.

[zealous hatch]

Thank you, you're right I should make the text something other than white for readability and a bit darker blue would be easier on the eyes!

[hearty matrix]

Could anyone help me convert a Kivy project (its just a simple hello world; I want to test) into an apk file? I'm on Windows, and I've tried multiple online resources like using WSL or using google colab, but none of them seem to work.

[wheat pawn]

hi, I'm using pyqt with pyside2 and I'm trying to add a toolbar corner widget to a tabwidget, but the text in the buttons gets cut off. does anyone happen to know how to fix this? Do I have to edit some css somewhere? Edit: Think I figured it out, changed the padding css so there's no padding on the top and bottom, doesn't clip text anymore

[cosmic dove]

How can I make a shopping gui?

[candid fern]

is there a way of changing the size of the font on tabs?

[dapper mirage]

@static cove im trying to update it with main.py so i can treat it like an api after, then use it as a better console for print statements with tooling

ah sure let me remove the wall

[dapper mirage]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/UM3Q

[static cove]

I can take a look tomorrow and let you know

[dapper mirage]

i still need to clean it up its gotten a bit messy from trying out ai solutions since original attempts didnt work

[dapper mirage]

legend i usually just do command line stuff so unsure where i've gone wrong

[dapper mirage]

got rid of all the ai suggestions and redid it and cleaned it up a bit since, trying to dynamically update a class variable to use the app loop to update the message now, definitely making more progress, ai was giving me alot of bad suggestions reading through it

[dapper mirage]

i've got it working now, ended up having to add multithreading, it wasn't being updated cause i was using the same thread for the loop

[pine arrow]

I keep hearing that about AI ( crap code ) , Mmm I made a typing text to speech interface , its locked into one process ( GUI loop OR speech , NOT both ) , need to do asyncio thingy @dapper mirage

[dapper mirage]

Yeah the ai part was a mistake just gave me a load of crap tbh, Ive got it working now ,just needed the gui loop on a seperate thread

Havnt used tk a lot prior so thought it’d push me in the right direction originally but just sent me on a wild goose chase so not touching that again anytime soon

It even broke my creation pattern

With recommendations it gave

[pine arrow]

Tkinter is good for prototyping - and Im just flipping bits on a breadboard so Im all good with it - can add Tkinter and Pygame into same GUI , check Pygame room on discord thats where I saw that

@dapper mirage

[dapper mirage]

Yeah I’ve used pygame before this was just for a project for a better terminal organisation tbh basically making an endpoint where I could put different prints messages to different tabs for debugging

[pine arrow]

I do all my testing on W10 PC but also run it on Ubuntu 32 bit OS for RPI3B+ , the CPU runs very hot , added a tiny fan @dapper mirage

that is for Tkinter and pygame experiments

[dapper mirage]

Yeah that was my big issue with using pygame since it’s a constant buffer, tbh originally I wanted to just update the ui by calling events but Aparently it still needs to run a loop

[pine arrow]

so if no GUI loop , runs lower CPU loading ?? @dapper mirage

ohhh ok just figure it out - pygame a power pig , not Tkinter

[dapper mirage]

Yeah pygame basically keeps refreshing what is on the screen, it’s the way most game setups do it

But yeah usually it’s a bit of a hog

[pine arrow]

what if draw line data with CANVAS in Tkinter - to draw waterfall maybe ? @dapper mirage

[dapper mirage]

Probably be less demanding but not used to tkinter most my dev stuff is console/cmnd line

Atleast with python

[pine arrow]

ya i have to learn SSH , headless remote of a PI , make some LEDs toggle @dapper mirage

[dapper mirage]

Nothing to tricky there, have fun it’s a good starting project and ssh is used quite alot

[pine arrow]

I will set up a RPI ( raspian lite ) and give it a good poke @dapper mirage

[junior rampart]

How would I run a GUI that previews images in real-time from the I/O point of view? Multiprocessing or asyncio streams? And how would I share the images between the GUI and the processing thread/process? gRPC and base64 data?

I want to capture a webcam as input, do some transformation, and preview the result inside a GUI widget if it is visible while not damaging the GUI's performance nor taking to long to render such that the next processing operation wouldn't happen after the next frame. From the I/O point of view.

I read about the per-interpreter GIL in the 3.12 change notes, could that help?

Has anyone tested those multi-core Trio libraries for parallel cpu-bound tasks?

https://github.com/richardsheridan/trio-parallel

https://github.com/goodboy/tractor

https://github.com/ethereum/trio-run-in-process

[spiral apex]

qtrio and trio.to_thread.run_sync

[junior rampart]

could this work with tkinter or pysimplegui?

not qtrio, but through trio

[spiral apex]

Yes you can use trio guest mode with tkinter

[junior rampart]

Create a listbox to display the top 100 coins

listbox = tk.Listbox(root, width=100, height=20, font=("Arial", 12))
listbox.pack(pady=20, fill=tk.BOTH, expand=True)

change to treeview

two columns

0 + 2 goes in text

1 + 2 goes in value

could be somet like

treeview.insert("", "end", text=self.whatever[i] values=(self.whatever[1 + i)

missed a comma, you get it

Hello! I need to create a small IDE in Python, but I don't know any lib for the user interface other than Tkinter... Do you have any recommendations?

How small does the program need to be?

[main summit]

Does not really matter; it just needs to be easy to improve. I have someone who wants to work on it with me but doesn't really dev things.

Kind of a basic option here, VSCode. It has a live collaboration plugin so you can work together with others. It also has a nice feature set and feels pretty snappy

[green pelican]

I'm trying to load icon files from exe files on my compter into a pyqt5 table

but it no work :(

and it hurts my soul

[frosty fiber]

could someone with experience in DearPyGui chime in with a first guess as to why this is happening...

one moment, i'll paste a link to the relevant code...

this is the callback: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/5ACQ for the mouse-drag handler

this is the window creation: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/OJBQ

this is the entire file: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ZVDA

I suspect that this has something to do with clipping and I'm not handling it properly. I've never setup mouse-drag-panning before within a UI toolkit so I'm a lil bit lost...

I also think that the map-viewer-window isn't setup properly with the draw-list inside it?

oh and probably don't need to say this, but in that posted GIF above the drawlist shouldn't be disappearing just because the window is being resized...

and the drawlist only disappears when dragging the window to certain places which is why I think this pertains to clipping....

and mouse-drag-panning within the window is even worse, lol. it flickers and jitters and resets.....

the mouse-drag-panning only works within certain areas of the window and it's SUPER sensitive...

[quaint cape]

Yo any ideas for how the ui should look (i suck at designing)

[frosty fiber]

[shell crystal]

what kind of style are you going for?

[regal lily]

Im developing an application and have just migrated from PyGTK3 to GTK4, I was using an icon application pystray which made creating a tray icon simple, It seems to call GTK3, what, if any, is the best way to get both to work?

[regal lily]

Maybe too early, seems wx, pystray, everything still uses gtk3... damn

[ruby crystal]

something similar to harlequin

the user can see the available tasks and run the one he wants

[quaint cape]

no specific style just for them to look good

reposition / rescale only

Looks fine to me in that case

[quaint cape]

alr good then

thinking of dividing parts of the app into their own small window or smth like that

and a tab bar at the bottom of the window to access those other windows

what do you think about this idea? how can i execute it well?

[icy iron]

Are there any good UI frameworks that have good GUI design tools?

I'm on the fence about PySide6 and PyQT6 because of their licenses, and I haven't yet found any drag and drop tools for GTK4 yet

My main goal is to write an app that can run on all three major desktop OSes (Win, MacOS, Linux)

Kivy may be an option

[royal gull]

While I would consult each license for details (Choose A License has a neat overview), PySide6 provides a more lenient license (the LGPL) which means that you only need to provide the source code of the modifications you've done to PySide itself to whomever asks for it (the GPL used by PyQt is a bit more strict in this regard). Both packages provide commercial licenses in case you are not able to meet those requirements.

Similarly to Qt (which has Qt Designer), GTK also has a few design tools. The one particular of note here is Cambalache which exports your UI as an XML file that can then be loaded with GTK. Here's a small guide on it. Kivy previously had designing tools, but they're unmaintained afaik.

If your UI not being "native" isn't a requirement, another option could be shipping a web app wrapped as a standalone package. A popular Python package for this is pywebview. pywebview uses the "native" web engine on the platform allowing for smaller bundles and less resource consumption (but with the drawback of having to support multiple web engines).

Some people may even tell you to forgo these designing tools completely as they aren't as flexible as writing code and may be harmful if you're trying to learn a particular UI. My opinion on this is to feel free to choose either option (UI via code or via design tool) but to be very careful about the way you go about it.

[somber hemlock]

tekgar explains it well. i personally would go with the web ui approach. learning a ui framework is a huge task and in most cases it isn't worth it at all. most of the times it would just lead you to using a poor man's version of css, react etc. and eventually causing frustration. whereas with web dev, you literally have the best of all worlds.

@icy iron

[icy iron]

I see. How well do web ui's perform with python?

Are they good for cross platform apps too?

[somber hemlock]

you can make them perform as well as instagram which runs on django.

[somber hemlock]

web is probably the most cross platform compatible thing right now. your ui will work wherever your browser runs. where does it run? everywhere. much better than any ui library

[icy iron]

Ooh that's pretty nice, if I can figure out how to get python apps running on mobile I can make it work across 5 or 6 platforms instead of 3 or 4

[tight laurel]

you can make them perform as well as instagram which runs on django.

[reef shale]

I'm looking to make a rather complex GUI
There will be a text output field on the right side and a table on the center and left side [this table can preferably be edited by the user, nothing major just small data correction, in addition it can be filtered ; this table can in theory take a few thousand lines]
In addition there will be the need of quite some buttons, a file selector, and a few menu's.

I basically only know python, which will be enough for my backend. I was considering nice GUI for the frontend as i can do most everything in python. However it is unclear to me if nicegui allows the complexity needed. Does anyone here know? if it is not feasible, what is a good (and well documented) alternative with as few non python things as possible? It needs to be free (for non commercial / open source use)

I am not a great programmer by any measure so having to learn a new language for the frontend feels painfull, on the opposite side, discovering near the end of my project that i have to redo the whole GUI also souunds not optimal.

[sharp sequoia]

Hello Everyone

[royal gull]

That can probably be done in all of the major Python GUI frameworks. NiceGUI itself relies on the Quasar Framework for components which itself uses Vue. Here are some examples of that. If the components provided by Vue do not allow for that kind of complexity, you can basically insert your own. But, at that point, you might want to consider just using Vue directly for frontend.

PySide6 (one of the major GUI frameworks in Python) probably makes this easier as it has support for the sort of thing you're asking (a layout with buttons and editable tables that can handle a few hundred elements). But again, most frameworks have facilities for this sort of thing (PyGObject, PySide, even Tkinter - albeit with plugins, etc).

If you want to hide the scroll bars but one to still use them you have to use a show command to configure it to not show or to show

No I mean I want to swipe up or down and then the frame moves I don’t want a scrollbar

[cosmic dove]

Show much do you know about TKinter?

[heady cave]

Well I’ve made a fairly decent GUI

I just want to make it scrollable

Like with a trackpad

Without scrollbars

Hi, I am using pyside6 and qt designer. I have a blank disabled QAction widget on a vertical toolbar. Can that widget be set to use up all available vertical space and push the DB icon to the bottom?

[atomic portal]

I know this is not ui but I don't know where to post this

why do I get this error?

[errant parcel]

Should've gone in #1035199133436354600

But you're not opening it in a folder, so that means that you're running your code in a separate location to your words.txt file

I'd recommend that you create a new folder and put everything you need into that folder

Alternatively, you can always copy the path of words.txt into the with open('... part

[atomic portal]

I should have thought of that😅

how do i limit the number of window generated when window1 function is called

[cosmic dove]

How can I make limit for allowing a person to view something?

[tribal canyon]

What library does everyone use for GUI applications? Not a big fan of PyQT

[mighty yoke]

i mean whenever i press the button it generates a new window named control panel , and if i press it again it will create another same window total 2 windows to limit this to 1 what shall i do

[supple otter]

tkinter for desktop apps. pygame for desktop drawing

[supple otter]

remember the open window in a global state and don't open one if one already exists

[sleek hollow]

what don't you like about pyqt?

[tribal canyon]

sorry. my brain wanted to type tkinter but my hands typed pyqt.

I have not used any other libraries and wanted suggestions. I come from a c#/Visual studio winforms background and slowly transitioning to python and it's libraries cause it is kickass

[supple otter]

Figma might be too modern and cloud-based, but Tkinter Designer looks like it can quickly build a modern application from it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qd-jJjduWeQ

there are plenty of classic GUI tools though: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53378400/visual-basic-like-gui-for-python-with-arrays-of-text-boxes-and-labels

judging by the code, it looks like Qt likes to overcomplicate things: https://www.pythonguis.com/faq/pyqt6-vs-pyside6/

[mighty yoke]

Ok, what if I press the button it generates the window and places the button on like(x=700,y=700) so the button disappears on the screen and generates the new window

I am not that good in python i don't know about global stuff or anything

[supple otter]

i see global and scope aren't covered well in https://openbookproject.net/thinkcs/python/english3e/ so use Google: https://www.w3schools.com/python/python_variables_global.asp

you could disable the button instead

[mighty yoke]

Yea

So I've been trying to get a python application with DearPyGUI to compile with both Pyinstaller and Nuitka, but things aren't quite working right. Everything compiles fine, but both produced executables throw the following error:
/home/runner/work/DearPyGui/DearPyGui/thirdparty/glfw/src/window.c:479: glfwWindowShouldClose: Assertion 'window != NULL' failed. Aborted (core dumped)

I've tried including the glfw and dearpygui libraries as hidden imports, but it hasn't really helped. I also tried disabling --onefile but no dice. Here's my build commands:

PyInstaller:
[sys.executable, "-m", "PyInstaller", "--onefile", f"--workpath={BuildDirPath}", f"--distpath={DistDirPath}", "--hidden-import", "'dearpygui.dearpygui'", "--hidden-import", "'dearpygui.core'", "--hidden-import", "'glfw'", "--hidden-import", "'dearpygui'", "--name=Shockfish", "--clean", f"--add-binary={sys.argv[1]}:.", f"--add-binary={sys.argv[2]}:.", "--noconsole", "Main.py"]

Nuitka:
[PythonEXEPath, "-m", "nuitka", os.path.join(CurrentCWDPath, "Main.py"), f"--output-dir={BuildDirPath}", f"--output-filename={EXEFilename}", "--standalone", "--onefile", "--include-module=dearpygui", "--assume-yes-for-downloads", "--remove-output"]

These errors show even with the most basic DearPyGUI example.
I'm running these commands inside of a venv (all packages are installed), and on Kubuntu 24.04. What else could I try to fix this?

I've also noticed that the app doesn't even run without a console on Wayland, but when I run the script through the terminal, everything works just fine

I don't know if it runs fine because there's a terminal though

[icy iron]

After some more debugging, I've found "14019 ERROR: Hidden import "'dearpygui'" not found"

[icy iron]

I tried cx_freeze as well but it throws the same error asd pyinstaller and nuitka

[mighty rock]

Maybe you need to name the Python file with a .pyw extension

Or use the pythonw.exe executable rather than the python.exe one

[icy iron]

I figured it out. Turns out that the viewport needs to be shown before you draw to it, but this somehow only affected my compiled executable and not my python script

[regal sky]

Hey guys, Python newb here, I spent over 10 hours just making these, the buttons are functional and I learnt how to do screen overlays and requests
How can I format the UI better? I really dont like how it looks atm

[regal sky]

i like how it looks now

[cunning kettle]

what would be the python equivalent of EGui

[royal gull]

egui seems to be immediate mode. The two major inmediate GUIs in Python right now are DearPyGUI and pyimgui. They're basically both bindings of the same thing, dear imgui, but they follow different philosophies, so to speak (dearpy aims to be more complete while pyimgui is more of a direct binding).

[cunning kettle]

im looking at pyimgui which looks really good, better then dearpygui in my opinion, I just dont really like it's documentation

[icy iron]

I'm using DearPyGUI, and I'm having some trouble getting callbacks to change values in a class properly. The OkButtonPressed variable is changed with this function:

def SetOkButton(self, Sender, AppData, UserData):
        print(id(self))
        self.OkButtonPressed = True

        if self is UserData:
            print("They're the same object")

And this is the button that calls this function (FD is an instance of my FileDialog class):
IMGUI.add_button(label="Save" if FD.SaveFile == True else "Open", tag="FDOkButton", pos=(WinSize[0] - 148, WinSize[1] - 128), callback=FD.SetOkButton, user_data=FD)

SetOkButton correctly changes the value, but I can only see these changes inside of the callback, everywhere else I check returns False instead of True. I've ensured that FD and self are the same object, and that there is nothing that overwrites OkButtonPressed, what could be the issue here?

Also, here's how my FileDialog class is defined:

class FileDialog:
    ## FUNCTIONS ##
    def __init__(self, Title="Shockfish - File Dialog", StartingDirectory=Globals.MainProgramPath, ValidExstensions=[], SaveDialog=False):
        self.DisplayAllFiles = False
        self.IsMouseReleased = True
        self.OkButtonPressed = False
        self.ExtensionFilter = ValidExstensions
        self.DGDisplayed = False
        self.Directory = StartingDirectory + "/"
        self.DGWindow = None
        self.DGClosed = False
        self.SaveFile = False
        self.Filename = None
        self.FSItems = []
        self.Title = Title

    def SetOkButton(self, Sender, AppData, UserData):
        print(id(self))
        self.OkButtonPressed = True

        if self is UserData:
            print("They're the same object, why isn't ts working :(")

    def Show(self):
        GUI.FileDialogs.append(self)

So turns out the value only changes after the file dialog is closed?

heya yall, working with Tkinter for the first time. Was curious if someone could help me get these columns looking neater 🙂

[royal cape]

did you create frames for each row? every frame has its own grid layout and won't naturally line up with each other, so by putting every widget inside individual frames, they don't consider the alignment of widgets from other frames - if you were to visualize their grids, it would look something like:

you want to put your widgets inside a single frame so they all share the same grid, that way tkinter can pad them out to line up with each other

[shut yarrow]

I did yes

[royal cape]

something like: ```py
app = Tk()

Label(app, text="Hello" ).grid(row=0, column=0)
Label(app, text="world!").grid(row=0, column=2)
Separator(app) .grid(row=1, columnspan=3, sticky="ew")

Label(app, text="Hello" ).grid(row=2, column=0)
Label(app, text="world!").grid(row=2, column=1)
Separator(app) .grid(row=3, columnspan=3, sticky="ew")

Label(app, text="Hello" ).grid(row=4, column=1)
Label(app, text="world!").grid(row=4, column=2)

allow columns 0-2 to stretch horizontally:

app.grid_columnconfigure([0, 1, 2], weight=1)```

[shut yarrow]

My issue is, I am generating the info from a Dict that is loaded from a CSV

ohhhh

wait

I know how I can do this, thanks for the info

[royal cape]

you can also try making more complex layouts, if you have the time for it - here's one to whet your appetite: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/P3LQ

TkDocs is also a good learning resource, you should have a read through it if you haven't already:

these pages in particular about geometry managers and grid might interest you:

Interesting, man making it as a class object is massive

Idk why I didn’t think of that

[valid quiver]

in the display stuff, you can see 4 button like add1 to add 4

when i click any of those i should get a new pop up window, it should have to entry, one should be preset name and another should be its brightness value, a number field

then a button for submitting (usially apply button), if applied the preset icon and text should be replaced by the name field which the user has typed and when click a popup menu having
3 button, edit, apply, delete

delete button will remove it a put the present name like at the begginging

edit button will give the name and value field which we can use to edit
finally delete apply button will apply the current preset's brightness to the screen (this is the chatGPT entry that i gave but that shit sucks)

this is made in customtkinter BTW

could anyone help me

?

Or should i stick with the CustomTkinter (Note that i am using GUI for basic purposes not professionally)

[burnt gull]

Sweet! Basically, I'm refactoring an application I created a couple of months ago in PyQt5, just trying to improve / clean it up a bit. I'm creating a custom class for QScrollArea to act as a container for other containers and widgets. But for some reason, there seems to be a minimum size set that i can't change. Doesn't seem to matter what i change, it just won't go away. Feel like I'm obviously missing something.

    def __init__(self, parent=None, name=None, hor_policy=None, ver_policy=None, warn=False):
        if not isinstance(self, QWidget):
            raise TypeError("BaseWidget must be used with QWidget subclasses")

        if name:
            self.setObjectName(name)

        self.hor_policy = hor_policy if hor_policy is not None else G.PREFERRED
        self.ver_policy = ver_policy if ver_policy is not None else G.PREFERRED
        self.setSizePolicy(self.hor_policy, self.ver_policy)

        self.warn(warn)
        self.setContentsMargins(0, 0, 0, 0)

        if isinstance(parent, Container):
            parent.add(self)

    def warn(self, warn):
        self.setProperty("theme", "warn" if warn else None)

    def hide(self):
        self.setVisible(False)

    def show(self):
        self.setVisible(True)


class Container(QScrollArea, BaseWidget):
    def __init__(self, parent=None, name=None, vertical=True, hor_policy=None, ver_policy=None):
        QScrollArea.__init__(self, parent)
        BaseWidget.__init__(self, parent, name, hor_policy, ver_policy)
        self.setWidgetResizable(True)

        self.container = QFrame(parent)
        if vertical:
            self.setVerticalScrollBarPolicy(Qt.ScrollBarAsNeeded)
            self.setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy(Qt.ScrollBarAlwaysOff)
            self.layout = QVBoxLayout(self.container)
        else:
            self.setVerticalScrollBarPolicy(Qt.ScrollBarAlwaysOff)
            self.setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy(Qt.ScrollBarAsNeeded)
            self.layout = QHBoxLayout(self.container)

        self.container.setLayout(self.layout)
        self.setWidget(self.container)
        self.setMargins(*G.DEFAULT_MARGINS)```

Ok thx

[muted willow]

PySide/PyQt both are essentially the same thing - Python wrappers around the Qt framework. Qt itself is one of the most mature framework so I would recommend that as well. There is nothing that comes close at least as far as I know in Python.

Also, if you are planning on using it, I highly recommend you look into the C++ documentation of Qt. It is one of the most descriptive and beautifully documented framework I have seen in my career.

The python documentation is automatically generated and hence, is not the best place to start.

It's very easy to understand how you would write the same thing in Python, just a matter of Syntax 🙂

[muted willow]

Were you able to figure this out? I am not sure which screenshot you are referring to? Do you mean the empty boxes in the middle or the windows controls in the title bar?

[tawdry abyss]

I have not gone back to it since, but if you look at the position of the empty boxes in the middle image, then the location of a - and X in the bottom picture, they are offset toward the left by several pixels

[eternal kestrel]

Hi, everybody. Do you know streamlit?
I have not well understood when to use st.cache_data or st.cache_ressources . I guess, I should not save larger items in session_state.

I am trying to build a GUI, where people can select files from a folder, user can make a selection of files. They get processed and plotted.

The data of the (all?) files is a lazy dataframe. Should something like this be in st.cache_data ?

If you know a nice example, with nice classes for the streamlit gui and the files selection, processing, I would be happy to see it. Would be nice to see how it is done with proper OOP.

Come on, thank you very much brother, have a nice day

[zealous lagoon]

Idk if this is the right channel but I don't know why my python looks different from everybody's?

[stuck marten]

that's not python, that's powershell. How exactly did you expect it to look like?

[modest dove]

How do I make a gui that looks like this? (Doesn't matter which library)

Please ping me on resposne :)

[crude umbra]

Well as per the screenshot, I can see the "PyQT" mentioned in the title bar of the window, so that means you can use PyQT to build such a GUI. You can use other libraries as well such as tkinter, kivy, etc.

[modest dove]

I looked into that, but couldnt find any styles or eays to do it? Do you have more information regarding the topic?

[crude umbra]

If you are looking for exactly same then I don't think it is possible but it is platform specific. And looking at it, it looks like windows 7 or 8 but still you may try this solution: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73918178/pyqt5-windowsvista-style-instead-of-win10-style#answer-73920981

[modest dove]

I’ll look into it. Thank you for your help 😁

This one looks kind of like a win 7 gui(but dark mode):

are you geekin?

wym?

[modest dove]

I'm sorry if this comes off disrespectful. But i was asking if anyone knew any old windows GUI's & you send a win11 library & a modern windows 10 gui

[digital rose]

ok wasnt sure if you just wanted a windows aesthetic in general

[modest dove]

No no, but thank you

[digital rose]

@modest dove "For the app to look exactly like Windows 7, it needs to be run on a Windows 7 system or one that has the Aero theme enabled in the first place. Modern Windows versions (Windows 10/11) handle window decorations differently"

any suggestions appreciated

[sleek hollow]

Pygame is probably your best bet here, but realistically Python isn't the best at this. Do you have to use python?

[violet fiber]

not necessarily but im not sure...

I want to run the program on a raspberry pi and I know how to code in python the best

[sleek hollow]

My suggestion would be something like Godot

the coding language is similar to python

but you'll have way more tools at your disposal to create all the visuals that you want

But the tray system doesnt work while app is compiled, just hides the app but keeps it working (still works in Task Manager)

Compile Command Used :
```bash
pyinstaller --onefile --noconsole --icon=icon.ico --name=rpc-ui --add-data "icon.png:." --add-data "icon.ico:." rpc-ui.py

Project Structure :
    icon.ico

Also why is there rust for this that only launches the app?

At that point just use something like pyinstaller or nuitka

Maybe you should consider only modifying the parts that are updated and not erasing and loading everything, it's a lot of work for the CPU.
but you are on the right track

Hey guys, i just started learning tkinter using the lesson provided by pycharm but there seems to be a problem with the color. This is my code:
`from tkinter import *

window = Tk()
window.title("Exercise 2")

topFrame = Frame(window)
secondFrame = Frame(window)
thirdFrame= Frame(window)
lastFrame = Frame(window)

topFrame.pack()
secondFrame.pack()
thirdFrame.pack()
lastFrame.pack()

text1 = Label(topFrame, text="This application demonstrates frame layout")
button1 = Button(secondFrame, text="Button 1", fg="green")
button2 = Button(secondFrame, text="Button 2", fg="red")
button3 = Button(secondFrame, text="Button 3", fg="blue")
button4 = Button(thirdFrame, text="Button 4", fg="green")
button5 = Button(thirdFrame, text="Button 5", fg="green")
button6 = Button(thirdFrame, text="Button 6", fg="red")
button7 = Button(lastFrame, text="Button 7", fg="blue")
button8 = Button(lastFrame, text="Button 8", fg="blue")
button9 = Button(lastFrame, text="Button 9", fg="blue")

text1.pack()
button1.pack(side=LEFT)
button2.pack(side=LEFT)
button3.pack(side=LEFT)
button4.pack(side=LEFT)
button5.pack(side=LEFT)
button6.pack(side=LEFT)
button7.pack(side=LEFT)
button8.pack(side=LEFT)
button9.pack(side=LEFT)

window.mainloop()`
The first pic is what it is supposed to look like and the left is what it looks like after I run my code (also the second one is black cuz i have dark mode on rn)
Thx guys!

I've been trying to create a PyQt app where I have a custom header, but windows is showing 5 pixels of whitespace at the top which is ruining my design.
I have tried using Frameless flags but that disables the feauture where windows helps me resize my window
I am trying to achieve the same windows setting that (spotify, vsc, and discord) have on windows,
If anyone knows how to achive this even if its not PyQt, such as (Electron, tkinter) etc please let me know how its done, I cant find anything online

Heres my code:
from PyQt6.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget
from PyQt6.QtCore import Qt
import sys

class DummyWindow(QWidget):
def init(self):
super().init()
self.setGeometry(100, 100, 500, 500)
self.setStyleSheet("background-color: red;")
self.setWindowFlags(Qt.WindowType.CustomizeWindowHint)

app = QApplication(sys.argv)
window = DummyWindow()
window.show()
sys.exit(app.exec())

I'm dumb

I'm like 90% sure that doesn't make a blue border but idk

Like it's assigning the border colour but doesn't actually show how you made the border

Is it panel in the console.print func ?

[modest dove]

This prints the border

console.print(Panel(text, border_style="blue", title="Information", title_align="center"))

And the other is the contents inside of it 🤦

[unborn canyon]

Right

But how does it print the boarder?

Is it the panel in the console.print func

EasyCard+, A simple flashcard editor/viewer
I made a flashcard program using pygame to study for exams. It also has audio-hints that you can record in the

& easygui for popups btw. It was really annoying but I did add support for exporting to PDF, however I couldn't get
the in PDF audio working so I just made it an embedded file. I also put it on my itch.io: https://vmanisherenow.itch.io/easy

how do you fix these gap when the mouse move too fast

def stop_drawing():
    global drawing
    drawing = False


canvas.bind('<B1-Motion>', start_drawing)
canvas.bind('<ButtonRelease-1>', stop_drawing)```

[sinful pendant]

One fix is to track the last point and draw staring line to that.

Another fix which may or may not help is trying to modify setting for high dpi (I had only used for windows)

[sinful pendant]

Use activeforeground and activebackground atrribute values.

[candid fern]

Is it possible to make an interface that can add or make a database?

[glossy burrow]

yes but going to need a lot more information on what you mean and are trying to do

[candid fern]

Well I wanted to make a medical program and so I don't have to find a database online after getting everything done I want to make it so that it makes the database

I like for example
Ex.
Name: iron fox
Age: 118
Gender: n/a
Contact_info: ggggf

[candid fern]

For example

[glossy burrow]

Well I mean its a lot more complicated than just 'making a database' as I assume you plan to read from it, add new patients, update information, etc. But yes it is all possible to do and something I am actively working on myself for a different type of program

[vast kestrel]

So, you'll need more than just this bare skeleton, but one way you could go would be to have your 'things' (like the patient record you showed for Iron Fox) be Pydantic (JSON) models, and then having that automatically get mapped to your database schema: https://docs.pydantic.dev/latest/examples/orms/

Here's somebody basically doing the thing https://github.com/litestar-org/polyfactory/issues/504#issuecomment-1966027097

If your 'things' have a more well-known structure in advance, just defining them directly as database 'models' would be easier.

[candid fern]

I found a tutorial

[candid fern]

Do I have to install the package or is it already pre-installed with python

[vast kestrel]

Separately, for both pydantic and sqlalchemy, yeah.

[candid fern]

I tried to follow myseqel as perfect tutorial haven't been able to find an import for Windows terminal

[candid fern]

Is that okay cuz I can't find any pip for any of those including the myseqel

[vast kestrel]

Maybe it's case-sensitive? I just did pip install SQLAlchemy and it worked

pip install pydantic works fine too. Make sure your pip is set up reasonably I guess?

[candid fern]

Which one would you recommend?

[candid fern]

...

[vast kestrel]

Sorry, what are you asking exactly?

[candid fern]

Which one do you prefer and I got to run now turns out it was using the wrong

[vast kestrel]

I don't know your exact situation, but..

I personally would prefer to use 'just' SQLAlchemy, and pre-define what all my models looked like.

If you need something where the user is deciding on the attributes of things each time at runtime, you might want to get Pydantic involved.

So it really depends on your goal. SQLAlchemy on its own is a simple great way to store your objects in a database.

If that feels like "grr, this isn't enough like JSON", then that's when Pydantic would come in.

Yes

If you are still getting that same import error after installing that package, check your environment's Python config, because it's not seeing the right packages. Double-check how the Python 'profile' etc is set up.

[candid fern]

Got to get it to work

[candid fern]

[vale temple]

took a year in a half to write all this

glad for the progress

[royal cape]

ttk widgets are more difficult to style, and at least on windows, several appearance options have no effect, but at least for widgets that support it, you can configure the root style with a background for all of them at once: ```py
from tkinter import Tk
from tkinter.ttk import Style

app = Tk()
style = Style(app)
style.configure(".", background="azure")
... ``` example: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/7LVQ

[royal cape]

hmm, apparently you can also manipulate the layout of the treeview to replace its background element, but it seems somewhat annoying to do that manually

Hi all! I was looking through the pinned messages in this channel and just wanted to say that Gooey https://github.com/chriskiehl/Gooey/tree/master?tab=readme-ov-file#examples is worth mentioning. It is super easy to use and fun for little side projects

[crystal violet]

I personally prefer Google's Fire cause it recognizes function/method parameters and auto generates the CLI from that, so there's no use for argparse

[amber agate]

Ohhh very cool! I will give python fire a try. I guess the best use case for gooey is if you already had a terminal app that uses argparse and want to make it more user friendly. But I did not know about this. Thanks!

[edgy echo]

What is a good way to make css like animations in pyqt6

Qt provides an animation framework that should allow you to do some animations.
Here's an example with QPropertyAnimation which is probably the simplest out of these: https://www.pythonguis.com/tutorials/pyqt6-animated-widgets/

[edgy echo]

Thank you so much it works!

[glossy burrow]

So first time using tkinter and I am trying to make dynamic text boxes (purpose being to populate them later much like a spreadsheet) What I am confused about is how one of these methods works but the other does not.

textBoxArray = [dateBox, chargeBox, amountBox, tagBox, noteBox]

# This loop creates them correctly
i = 0
while 0 <= i < len(textBoxArray):
    textBoxArray[i].grid(column=i+1, row=1, sticky=N, padx=5)
    print(i)
    i = i +1

# This loop dumps them on top of each other
for boxes in textBoxArray:
    gridOffset = 1
    boxes.grid(column=gridOffset, row =1, sticky=N, padx=5)
    gridOffset = gridOffset + 1```

[vast kestrel]

You're assigning gridOffset = 1 inside the loop, not before it

You may enjoy enumerate here with a starting index of 1

[glossy burrow]

    # original test moved to TextBoxBuilder_test.py
    instance_count = 0

    def __init__(self, mainframe):
        self.mainframe = mainframe
        TextBoxBuilder.instance_count += 1

    def createTextBoxRow(self, expenses):
        # print(dir(self.mainframe))
        print(expenses)
        # self.mainframe = mainframe
        dateBox = Text(self.mainframe, width=12, height=1)
        chargeBox = Text(self.mainframe, width=30, height=1)
        amountBox = Text(self.mainframe, width=5, height=1)
        tagBox = Text(self.mainframe, width=15, height=1)
        noteBox = Text(self.mainframe, width=60, height=1)

        textBoxArray = [dateBox, chargeBox, amountBox, tagBox, noteBox]

        i = 0
        while 0 <= i < len(textBoxArray):
            textBoxArray[i].grid(column=i+1, row=self.instance_count, sticky=N, padx=1)
            print(i)
            i = i +1

        self.populateBoxes(expenses, textBoxArray)
    
    def populateBoxes(self, expenses, boxes):
        #this relies on one single entry, need to change its comprehension to handle multiple entries
        date = expenses[0].strip("'")
        charge_name = expenses[1].strip("'").strip()
        charge_amount = expenses[2].strip("'")
        boxes[0].insert("1.0", date)
        boxes[1].insert("1.0", charge_name)
        boxes[2].insert("1.0", charge_amount)
     
def main():
    
    def file_import():
        importfile.set(filedialog.askopenfilename(title="Select Expenses to Import"))

        expenses = parse_imports(importfile.get())
        update_TextBox(expenses)
        if not importfile:
            return
    
    def update_TextBox(expenses):
        displayExpenses = TextBoxBuilder(mainframe)
        displayExpenses.createTextBoxRow(expenses)```
And my questions is if this is a good way to do this as I'll have several views that are like this as well as taking user input etc

[glossy burrow]

I'll add that I know instance count isn't sustainable longer term but it worked as a POC for dynamic row numbers via the class. But that will be easy to handle later but just counting results from queries or imports and get counts from there.

[sleek hollow]

If you just need simple rows that hold one line of text each, use Entry instead of Text

that being said, I'd consider using a different GUI library that actually has proper spreadsheet widgets

PySide6 has QTableWidget

[glossy burrow]

Hmm I guess I'll take a look at entry instead and also pyside6

[royal cape]

FWIW you might also be interested in tksheet if you want to stay with tkinter, it seems like a fairly comprehensive library for this:
https://ragardner.github.io/tksheet/DOCUMENTATION.html ```py
from tksheet import Sheet

data = ...
headers = ...

app = Tk()
sheet = Sheet(app, data=data, headers=headers)
sheet.enable_bindings("all", "edit_cell")
sheet.pack(expand=True, fill="both")
app.mainloop()```

[glossy burrow]

ah thanks I will look at that. I did kinda of want to stick with tkinter since I decided to use and learn it. Maybe this library will make this easier. I am going to try and make Entry boxes work as well for the sake of learning. Fundamentally only a small component of all of this is actually csv, the rest will be from db queries which I know is functionally similar though technically different.

[royal cape]

ahh, that sounds fair

[glossy burrow]

Yea to add more information the purpose of this view is basically a check/edit opportunity before data from the csv is put into the database. After which all interaction with the data will be handled via the db. Though I was hoping I could create a module that I could use for any time I needed to display the data in an editable format.

[glossy burrow]

hmm well I guess I have no funcitonal reason I need to stay with tkinter in general. I plan to make a web app version of this anyways maybe ill take a look at pyside6 after all, seems to have more capabilities and a more modern look which would be nice

eh screw it, not going to change libraries Ill just try and make tkinter do what I want.

[glossy burrow]

hmm ok I think I need to change the structure from a list to a dictionary of lists so I can more reliably iterate through it

[fallow geyser]

does anyone know any resources for doing async stuff with pyqt6?

not using pyside

[fallow geyser]

im trying to use pyside now and can't get it to do async properly

QAsyncioEventLoop.create_connection() is not implemented yet

[royal gull]

The usual way I see async stuff done within Qt in Python is with trio (they have an example in the docs). QtAsyncio is currently in technical preview so it's not there yet.

[cloud moat]

Hi, everyone! I'm new to Python and to programming, and kinda want to have an interface because I think it would get me something palpable, a sense of "this is getting done, finally", that just the lines of code do not do for me... That said, which free "GUI maker" do you recommend? Also, if I want to someday sell an app, there's any option to do code and interface entirely free?

[fallow geyser]

i think it's easier to do the async stuff with a different class just for pulling data, and that class can be passed labels for the gui so it can write to them

I've got the data being collected, just no gui right now

Yes, I use async code inside my pyside6 app extensively! I'm using qasync. You can see it in use at https://github.com/m6r-ai/humbug - the entry point that sets things running is here: https://github.com/m6r-ai/humbug/blob/main/src/humbug/__main__.py

[fallow geyser]

i gave up and did it another way

do you use sockets?

i think pyside6 async shit the bed once i tried networking

(this is a modbus project)

this is where im at

[wheat ether]

I'm using aiohttp to make REST requests to AI backends. The AIs all stream their responses back as a series of server-sent events which could run for several minutes, and there could be quite a few such streams running at any one time

[fallow geyser]

i think the issue was i could not use sockets within the qt async thread

it was not implemnted apparnetly

[wheat ether]

I've not tried socket-level access but the docs do talk about QTcpSocket and using non-blocking sockets - I've used similar approaches with other network stacks in the past, but not sure how well they work here

[fallow geyser]

yeah im not making qpymodbus

i just send the data over a signal

seems to work just fine

I've still never really been as productive in anything again as I was in TOAD for Oracle 🫗

[glossy burrow]

Agree, and that is ligtly sanitized for test data. the original is even worse and the formatting is worse too

developing a good importer for these formats is going to take much longer and so simplifying it to CSV for now was the only way to keep moving forward

[feral spire]

I'm making a pyqt app for a node-based editor (which will be made into a plugin for another Qt application). I have a problem where the node's input widgets within a QGraphicItem don't get updated/repainted when interacted with (i.e. QLineEdit widgets don't show the cursor, nor what is being typed). The widgets get updated when I click away from the node, then select it again; or when interacting with a QComboBox, for some reason that works just fine).

This is my class which contains the widgets:

from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QWidget, QVBoxLayout
from PyQt5.QtGui import QColor

from QpnSettings import QpnSettings

class QpnNodeContentWidget(QWidget):
    def __init__(self, parent=None):
        super().__init__(parent)
        self.layout = QVBoxLayout()
        self.layout.setContentsMargins(0, 0, 0, 0)
        self.layout.setSpacing(0)
        self.setLayout(self.layout)
        palette = self.palette()
        palette.setColor(self.backgroundRole(), QColor(QpnSettings.NodeContentBackgroundColor))
        self.setPalette(palette)
        self._count = 0
        self.setFixedSize(0, 0)
    
    def AddWidget(self, widget: QWidget, newWidth: int):
        widget.setUpdatesEnabled(True)
        self.layout.addWidget(widget)
        self.setFixedSize(int(newWidth), int(self.height() + widget.sizeHint().height()))
        self._count += 1
        return self.height() - (widget.sizeHint().height()/2)

[feral spire]

Well, I found a solution, but it's probably not the best solution. Doing this, absolutely slams a CPU core to 100% (but it fixes the issue). This is the node class which holds the proxy widget for the node content widgets. I added a line in the graphic items's paint() function to update the widget proxy.

class QpnNode(QGraphicsItem):
    def __init__(self, title="Undefined Node", parent=None):
        super().__init__(parent)
        self._title = title
        self.inputs = []
        self.outputs = []
        self.inputWidgets = []
        
        # UI Elements
        self._titleBar = QGraphicsSimpleTextItem(self._title)
        self._nodeContent = QpnNodeContentWidget()
        self._nodeContentProxy = QGraphicsProxyWidget(self)
        self._nodeContentProxy.setWidget(self._nodeContent)

        self.InitUI()

    def paint(self, painter: QPainter, option: QStyleOptionGraphicsItem, widget=None):
        # Node paint code hidden for brevity
        ...
        # Force update the content widgets
        self._nodeContentProxy.update()

There's gotta be a better way to do this.

[digital rose]

Guys

I am working on an interesting open source project, back-end is almost done, but I was hoping if anyone would like to contribute to build the ui

I hate designing

[wheat ether]

without knowing what your proxy widget does, is the 100% load problem that in updating the proxy you also retrigger the paint? I've had that sort of thing happen in the past. Your original problem sounds like there's probably one or more events you need to listen to and that may need you to and that need to trigger some form of update that will in turn repaint your widget? I had a few weird problems that sound similar to what you've described a few months ago when I built a terminal emulator widget but found I wasn't updating a viewport correctly sometimes

[glossy burrow]

You could just share the repo link and people could look but this isnt like a recruitment board or anything

Do I need to use a button to key behind information?

[digital rose]

What all I can add to make it better?

Any idea in mind ?

[candid fern]

What does the GUI do?

[digital rose]

🥲 hard to explain back

It helps user to convert lectures video into notes

So the youtube button, opens youtube within it

And notes button open notes

(in very short)

[candid fern]

How about a timer and a point system

[candid fern]

I'm sorry that I didn't understand it at first but maybe something underneath just so people who don't use a pad in paper and then average or an area lines when they're not on the computer can understand and if you put an appoint system and assign points to if it's the video is a lecture and you spend time on it instead of having them be able to open YouTube and then do whatever you were paying retention because people don't want people points to be going down and what if you added a quiz button that quiz you on the lecture that you're currently doing you know you paste in the URL and it generates a quiz and it giving you points that can be used to make their notes Fancy ect

[digital rose]

Thats a Great idea

But I thought copy pasting url might break the momentum, won't it look like an extra burden like external

Extra task

Btw it has the quiz things

[candid fern]

I know it might seem odd to have him paste in then you are out but think about it so that they don't have to look for the same video 100 times by using the same keywords and it popping up different it just seems people time in essence

[candid fern]

Well it's an idea

Can someone can help me figure out why I am unable to get the scrollbar to show up in this test code using tkinter? https://pastebin.com/SqG6mGda

it looks like it's being covered up, but I thought the whole point of a grid layout was that the widget in column 0 wouldn't cover the widget in column 1

[light vigil]

I got it to work by changing the master of the widgets in ScrollableFileList to None, though I don't know why that works. It was just something I found after hours of searching the internet.

also, by doing this the position of the individual components in ScrollableFileList belong to, and are placed in the grid of the root window, which doesn't seem to me like it's in the spirit of grouping widgets together into custom ones.

[royal cape]

master=None just means to use the root widget as the parent, that being Tk(), but your original code was on the right track - i believe the issue was on line 29, you forgot to pass the parent widget to the Listbox superclass, so it became a child of the root widget and not ScrollableFileList, then by calling file_list.grid(row=0, column=0, ...) with the same grid coordinates as the scrollable file list, the listbox completely drew over your frame and obscured it

you can tell by setting sticky="W" on just the file_list, it draws the listbox on the side and you can see that the scrollbar was hiding under it

and just adding super().__init__(master, ...) in your FileList class fixes your code snippet:

[light vigil]

it's also just nicer to have a more up to date version

You could use QTextEdit which supports setting text as Github-flavored Markdown (via QTextEdit.setMarkdown()). If you need more features though, then you could get a Markdown-to-HTML converter such as mistune and render to HTML using the Qt web engine.

My text output response comes out as stream, just like chatgpt, so when I used this it was only showing single letter at a time

I've literally just been building something that sounds very similar to this - something that takes AI streams and renders the markdown from the chat conversation into a QTextEdit. There are couple of minor things not yet supported (blockquotes being the main one).

[neat fog]

(in pyside6) is there a way to set a the font of 12 QLabels without having to do it for each one (I want to avoid: 12 Lines of code setting the font for each one)?

[digital rose]

Yes mate

There are two ways

You can loop through the list

Or set-up custom stylesheet

from PySide6.QtWidgets import QLabel, QApplication, QWidget, QVBoxLayout
from PySide6.QtGui import QFont

app = QApplication([])

window = QWidget()
layout = QVBoxLayout(window)

# Create labels and store them in a list
labels = [QLabel(f"Label {i+1}") for i in range(12)]

# Set a common font
common_font = QFont("Arial", 14)

# Apply the font in a loop
for label in labels:
    label.setFont(common_font)
    layout.addWidget(label)

window.show()
app.exec()

Or you can directly setup the stylesheet

[neat fog]

Ok thanks

[digital rose]

Did it really work for u ?

[neat fog]

I haven't implemented it yet,

[restive barn]

hii!! is it better to use pyqt6 to just stick to pyqt5? for gui apps

[wheat ether]

qt5 is pretty-much completely out of support now (even for people who paid for support) - unless there's a good reason not to then qt6 is a good bet (I've been using it for the last few years and very happy with it)

Difference also shouldn't be too drastic, apart from some deprecations and rearrangements, but the code should remain mostly the same.

Anyone else find the tkinter documentation pretty painful to read? -_-

[royal cape]

the one in the python docs? i cant recall the last time i looked at that page after i found out about TkDocs and tcl/tk's API reference

[glossy burrow]

Like these
https://www.tcl-lang.org/man/tcl8.6/TkCmd/ttk_frame.htm
I find their formatting to be very hard to read or confusing much of the time
Maybe I'll try the python docs one

[royal cape]

ah, i think their API reference isn't great for learning since it lacks any form of tutorials/guides, but it's at least a decent reference and has some useful explanations scattered around there (e.g. pack -> the packer algorithm)

for learning tkinter and Tk's concepts, i find TkDocs substantially nicer in that regard
https://tkdocs.com/tutorial/intro.html

[glossy burrow]

yea I like that site but the info on it is extremely limited which is where I struggle. I find it enough of a hassle I am strongly considering changing my project over to PySide or PyQT.

like trying to do combo boxes just now and for one the tutorial image shows like 5x what the 'sample code' is so there is just no explanation there nor is there a coerrelary between that page and the full docs.

ttkbootstrap

bug fixing!

[glossy burrow]

much more readable, and the amount of pirated games increased a good bit ;D

[austere trout]

okay bad news

I added a robocopy feature

where u can mirror drives

and I forgot to add like 4 step verification

so I managed to mirror my D drive to my C drive

my 2 tb ssd to my 1tb ssd in other words

[austere trout]

that’s how that went

I managed to save everything and quit it before it took my whole system but it managed to delete all my steamfiles and put them somewhere random

and some other files

so im not sure what it fucked up

so I took all my save files and the project and reset the pc

I was practicing very bad programming

that’s like fucking with the electrical grid but not turning off the power

oh well

It’s been half a year

it was time for a reset anyways

[glossy burrow]

"teaching moment" as they are called

[austere trout]

now I get to reinstall all my apps tho

Should be fun

[glossy burrow]

indeed, recently upgraded to win11 so I feel that

[austere trout]

upgrade…

[glossy burrow]

well microsoft's version of 'upgrade'

Where technically we didnt 'delete' anything, but still broke over 70% of your apps

[austere trout]

I like windows 11, but its still a bit buggy

[austere trout]

yeah bc my windows was luckily on the drive I didnt mutilate

[glossy burrow]

that is lucky, otherwise you probably would have just hard crashed and not been able to stop it

[austere trout]

so it all just transferred over to that but then something must’ve messed up alobg the way

[austere trout]

woulda lost all my files lol

robocopy is dangerous business

[glossy burrow]

yup, that aisde I really like your ui though. impressed its Tkinter personally. Been having a lot of headaches with it myself lately, mostly documentation related

[austere trout]

chatgpt knows a lot about it

I was struggling myself

its surprisingly good with ui
