I don't know why the site packages would be owned by root, but you can always try what Numerlor suggested

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:13 AM

you should avoid running most programs with sudo since they tend to break

I certainly do hope it's simple

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:17 AM

I debugged what causes the memory leak, but you'll figured it out

it's a simple fix

@eager beacon just tested without using the dragging, still leaks memory

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 11:18 AM

#

you have it working with PyQt5?

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:18 AM

#

more or less

#

the widget displays at least

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:19 AM

#

the problem is not in PySide nor is it in PyQt

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 11:19 AM

#

what do you mean?

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:19 AM

#

I mean that this window appears, it's just the dragging blocks into the editor that doesn't work

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:19 AM

#

digital rose the problem is not in PySide nor is it in PyQt

if you know what lines to change then just say so

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:21 AM

#

def plot_signal(self, audio: np.ndarray):
        for i, channel in enumerate(audio):
            self.signal_plots[i].setData(channel)

fix this and you won't have the memory leak

#

this code is wrong

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:21 AM

#

well yeah but what do I change lol

#

since signal_plots is a list of line refs

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:22 AM

#

you'll figure it out

#

you're animating the plot wrong

#

you're adding a new line with every iteration, bro

#

no wonder your memory eventually runs out

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:23 AM

#

I'm not adding a new line, I'm just replacing the values

#

there's only 2 lines at all times

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:24 AM

#

you are setting new data in every for loop iteration

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:24 AM

#

well yeah because I have one line for each channel of audio data

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:24 AM

#

new data on top of new data

#

you don't clear the old data when you set new data

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:25 AM

#

and even then it should deallocate the old data since they have a refcount of 0

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:25 AM

#

turns out that ain't the case

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:26 AM

#

do you even know how memory allocation works in python

#

and the GC

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:26 AM

#

garbage collector yeah, blah blah blah

#

do you distinguish bethween a mutable type in Python (like your self.signal_plots list) and an immutable type?

#

do you think it would perhaps help if that self.signal_plots would rather be of an immutable type?

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:32 AM

#

I don't think that would change much though

#

does python even have an immutable array type

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:37 AM

#

no

#

I was hinting at using a tuple (immutable Python type) rather than a list (mutable Python type)

#

just make that self.signal_plots to be of a tuple type

rocky dragon Dec 17, 2021, 11:39 AM

#

how would that help? They're overwriting the data in the list

#

or whatever it is

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:41 AM

#

and that function is not THE way to iterate over a list in Python

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:42 AM

#

are you saying indexing a list is bad now? kekw

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:42 AM

#

def plot_signal(self, audio: np.ndarray):
        for i, channel in enumerate(audio):
            self.signal_plots[i].setData(channel)

#

don't you notice the excess indentation?

#

should be

def plot_signal(self, audio: np.ndarray):
    for i, channel in enumerate(audio):
        self.signal_plots[i].setData(channel)

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:46 AM

#

thats

#

really not the issue

#

that's just a side effect of copying indented code

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:47 AM

#

be consistent with indentation

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:47 AM

I am

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:47 AM

no clue which I had before

you can't install PySide2 for Python 3.10

#

for which Python version did you install PySide2?

#

python 3.10

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 11:59 AM

#

#

#

not yet

#

#

let me look

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 12:10 PM

#

no, on Manjaro everything works

#

it usually did

#

I am not able to install PySide2 for Python 3.10 via pip

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 12:11 PM

#

got it working in python-dbg (3.9) now, but still leaks memory

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 12:12 PM

#

on PyPI for PySide2 it says that it Requires: Python >=2.7, !=3.0.*, !=3.1.*, !=3.2.*, !=3.3.*, !=3.4.*, <3.10

#

Python version < (less than!) 3.10

#

interesting

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 12:12 PM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 12:13 PM

#

so you're on Python 3.9

#

and still memory leaks?

#

#

you stop

#

@rain quarry can you update your code to PySide6?

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 12:17 PM

#

not sure

#

depends on if the libraries support it

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 12:18 PM

#

@rain quarry If you have time, could you post a version a minimal example on the issue tracker?

#

A version that doesn't need anything installed other than qt/pg

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 12:19 PM

#

hmm

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 12:19 PM

#

@rain quarry do you think high DPI scalling has anything to do with the memory leak? you have QtCore.Qt.AA_EnableHighDpiScaling in there

#

try without the high DPI scalling

#

also, don't use QCoreApplication, but use QApplication

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 12:21 PM

#

yup, still happens

#

that setting is on QCoreApplication only afaik

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 12:22 PM

#

not sure

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 12:22 PM

#

yup, you have to do the DPI scaling before a QApplication exists

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 12:22 PM

#

try with QApplication and see if you get any errors or not

#

just fix __main__.py to this...

from PySide2 import QtCore
from kaudio_app.app import App

def main():
    app = App()
    QtCore.QCoreApplication.setAttribute(QtCore.Qt.AA_EnableHighDpiScaling)
    app.run()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 12:23 PM

#

Are you reading a bug report or something?

#

QApplication inherits QGuiApplication which inherits QCoreApplication. So you could use QApplication to set the attribute, but what would you expect it to change?

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 12:25 PM

#

I have switched lines QtCore.QCoreApplication.setAttribute(QtCore.Qt.AA_EnableHighDpiScaling) and app = App()

it is important that app = App() executes first, then QtCore.QCoreApplication.setAttribute(QtCore.Qt.AA_EnableHighDpiScaling) executes second

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 12:26 PM

#

digital rose just fix `__main__.py` to this... ```py from PySide2 import QtCore from kaudio_a...

Thats incorrect

#

What even is App()?

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 12:26 PM

#

not sure what that App thing holds

#

I was thinking a QApplication class?

#

this application of @rain quarry is very confusing... not following any conventions whatsoever, no Pythonic principles applied, no order, no PEP8... fuck this, I'm out

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 12:28 PM

#

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 12:29 PM

#

ah, I see

#

High DPI scalling is maybe not supported on his Arch distro

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 12:30 PM

#

So its basically doing nothing. Very unlikely to have anything to do with the memory leak that happens when a specific widget is visible

digital rose Dec 17, 2021, 12:30 PM

#

I don't know

#

it's all fucked up

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 12:31 PM

#

no offense, but it's true

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 12:31 PM

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 12:35 PM

#

eager beacon What even is App()?

app just instantiates the entire application, decided it'd be cleaner to make it a class than make it a function and a global variable

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 12:36 PM

#

Yeah, thats usually fine, but there was an issue doing that on PySide2 on some versions of Python

#

I have a demo somewhere around here let me see what it was

#

Process finished with exit code 139 (interrupted by signal 11: SIGSEGV)

#

As far as I know it only happens when exiting the application.

#

It is a memory segfault though

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 12:43 PM

#

hmm

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 12:44 PM

#

Its obviously not this exact problem, but I suppose it may be able to cause other issues with GC

#

Do you have any other widgets that go through as much data as the plots?

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 12:50 PM

#

every widget (i.e. Node) gets the same data passed through but they don't change how much RAM they use (at least not in the order of several MB/s)

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 12:55 PM

#

There was another garbage collection issue in PySide2 when referring to self in a signal using lambda, which I did see a few times in your app, but I didn't bother to look to see if any of those were being used during the update of that widget

Have you tried adding the 2 plots to a tab widget?

Hey @rain quarry!

What is happening to the data in that node?

are you transforming it with anything other than pg?

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:24 PM

#

nope

just doing the same as the signal tab

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 11:26 PM

#

Do you know when and how the data transferred between nodes? Looks like there's just one Node in here?

#

like.. A node wouldn't request data from a node upstream unless something happened upstream to change the data, would it?

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:27 PM

#

data transfers was just copying the floats into a new array which in turn got transformed into a python list

#

but to replicate that I need to add some of the native code

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 11:28 PM

#

there's no way to mock it?

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:30 PM

#

I mean I can but that's just creating a new list()

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 11:32 PM

#

yeah, I guess. I don't really know what to suggest other than to make it as close to the original setup as you possibly can

#

Is your native stuff a python wrapper around something else, if so, are you sure its able to be garbage collected?

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:48 PM

#

oh

#

                if self.stereo:
                    audio = np.array([self.node.buffer_left, self.node.buffer_right])
                else:
                    audio = np.array([self.node.buffer])
``` this is leaking two lists per iteration

#

am I not supposed to incref the buffers in tp_getattro?

eager beacon Dec 17, 2021, 11:50 PM

#

I don't know what the library does when those are accessed

rain quarry Dec 17, 2021, 11:51 PM

#

private val getattroConfigurable = staticCFunction { self: PyObjectT, attr: PyObjectT ->
    val obj = self!!.kt.cast<Configurable>()
    val name = attr.toKotlin<String>()
    val attrObj = obj.attrs[name]  // lookup attribute

    if (attrObj != null) {
        attrObj.get().toPython().incref()  // convert to python and add 1 ref
    } else {
        PyObject_GenericGetAttr(self, attr)  // default getattro impl
    }
}

I think removing that incref is all I need to do

My discord bot controls a UI, so on my main thread I start a tk window and then fork off a thread to run the bot. I pass to that thread a reference to an object with methods that the bot can call to trigger things on the UI. I'm getting a really confusing error from the bot's thread.

Exception in thread TheClicker:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\m\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\threading.py", line 973, in _bootstrap_inner
    self.run()

    return self.tk.call(self._w, 'cget', '-' + key)
TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str

the place my bot thread starts is here:

    root = tk.Tk()
    player = ChannelSurfTk(root, rng, playlist)
    def OnClose():
        global exit_code
        player.OnClose()
        exit_code=EXIT_USER
    import threading
    from time import sleep
    threading.Thread(
        group=None,
        target=discord.main,
        name='TheClicker',
        args=(player), kwargs={},
        daemon=True
    ).start()

and discord.main is

def main(ui_hooks):
    print("here0")
    return DiscordChannelsurf(ui_hooks, cfg.TOKEN)

but not even "here0" is being printed. I can't figure out what is causing cget to be called with an incorrect parameter. The bot doesn't even call any tk methods, I commented out the few places it uses ui_hooks while trying to debug this.

you should just find a way to separate the one that calculates the speed and the one updates the GUI. I think the speed calculation part is taken care of by the interrupt handlers. Just try to create loop with 'after' function that continuously calls itself which updates the GUI.

I mean update in a sense that you do not call root.update() ( this should be called in only dire situations. I don't think this is the one) but just updating the label values.

clear loom Dec 21, 2021, 4:57 AM

you could use root.mainloop() once. If you are having problems with delayed popping up of windows, either you are not being optimal in giving enough time between 'after' calls, or your rendering is too burdensome. If the latter is the case, you might want to consider using multiprocessing module.

mighty frigate Dec 21, 2021, 8:52 AM

#

@cosmic hamlet here's some leads for you:

#

although it's probably not the best way to go about adding such features, see the last line

#

you can try to tweek the tabwidget stylesheet to reserve some space between the tabs and the widget, and add the buttons as I said earlier (buttons outside layouts, and positions updates in the resizeEvent

#

you can try to draw your own tabwidget by overwritting the paintEvent of your tabwidget. that's probably the best way to do what you want, but it's also the most painfull

#

the last way, you might want to forget about adding buttons "in" the tabwidget, as it's gonna look weird. It's "a lot" of work and I don't think it's gonna be pretty. What you could do is simply add 2 buttons outside your tabwidget bellow it, as a footer widget

I'm saying the code you write for Linux might be different than the code you write for Windows as this library is a GUI application development library, so user interactions or defined behaviors can differ.

#

Other than that, Linux Python users need to install tkinter because it isn't available as a built-in package like on Windows

You could do it in the slider or widgets enterEvent if you write a function to return to the handle position from the value of the slider

How would it be done only through the enter event? I have it done through mouse tracking now https://github.com/Numerlor/Auto_Neutron/blob/71a07e560fc7ef9e88debcd6ce83ab5cb2ced705/auto_neutron/windows/gui/new_route_window.py#L89-L110

rocky dragon How would it be done only through the enter event? I have it done through mouse ...

What you've done is probably easier.

through the enter event you could do something like this. If you did it this way, you would have to get the position of the slider rect. so in the example below, you the slider handle should be 150 pixels from the rect.left()

value = 0
min_val = -100
max_value = 100
value_to_pos = (value - min_val) / (max_value - min_val)
width = 300
handle_pos_x = width * value_to_pos
print(handle_pos_x)

@cosmic hamletevery Qt widget has a setStyleSheet function. You can find some example here : https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/stylesheet-examples.html

#

this isn't a "true" css engine, so you might find it a lot different from what you're used to but to my knowledge most widgets support padding and margin

#

from the Qt stylesheet reference : https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/stylesheet-reference.html
you might want to use the tab-bar or the pane subcontrol

#

something like this QTabWidget::tab-bar { some_css: some_value; }

Hello. I'm trying to display a table with Tkinter, using the ttk.Treeview class. My problem is that, the columns don't seem to resize to fit the contents, after inserting a couple of rows. Is there a way to tell Tkinter to change column width based on the column contents?

rocky dragon Dec 22, 2021, 7:38 PM

#

Can I get a QSpinBox to have its minimum width depend on its current contents instead of the width of the maximum value it can contain without setting it manually?

#

Currently I have a fixed size policy and call adjustSize when the maximum is updated

leaden sage Dec 22, 2021, 7:49 PM

#

Well, for my case, I'm currently trying something like this:

from tkinter.font import Font
master: tk.Misc  # root, frame, anything you're putting the Treeview in
style = ttk.Style(master)
font = Font(master, style.lookup("Treeview", "font"))
font.measure(...)  # this lets you pass in a string and returns the string's width in pixels, which can then be used to set minwidth on a column containing said string

#

I'm assuming your case could be solved in a similar fashion

#

This is from Tkinter though, not sure how font width measuring works in Qt or whatever you're using for UI

I've got my QSlider with an editable tooltip mostly figured out now, but I'm not sure how I'd get it to hide the tooltip after the user clicks anywhere outside of it, including outside of the slider. There's also a weird dot in the top left with the styled Fusion frame https://paste.fuelrats.com/luxitafori.py

button1 = tk.Button(frame2, text= "1")
button1.grid(row = 0 , column= 0, padx= 5, pady = 5)

As per my experience the size of the widget depends upon the text properties and it works as per that, unless u tell the widget that keep x,y; height and width

Are there any modules that has an op that layouts rectangles in the most efficient way? Say you can input 100 rectangles of different sizes, and it then places them in a rectangle with the least amount of blank space?

#

and I am not really talking about area space as in TreeSize and Windirstat, since the rectangles' length/width aspect needs to be kept

Did you ever figure out what was causing that little dot?

rocky dragon Dec 23, 2021, 10:52 PM

#

Nope, I noticed it on my other spinboxes where I thought it wasn't present, but it was just hidden by the background

eager beacon Dec 23, 2021, 10:52 PM

#

even a regular QSpinBox?

rocky dragon Dec 23, 2021, 10:52 PM

#

Yeah, I think it's a bug with the Fusion style's frame

#

it only appears on a spinbox with no buttons

#

from PySide6 import QtWidgets
from __feature__ import snake_case, true_property

class Window(QtWidgets.QMainWindow):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()

        self.widget = QtWidgets.QWidget()
        self.set_central_widget(self.widget)
        self.layout_ = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout(self.widget)
        bs = QtWidgets.QAbstractSpinBox.ButtonSymbols
        for style in QtWidgets.QStyleFactory.keys():
            for buttons in (bs.NoButtons, bs.PlusMinus, bs.UpDownArrows):
                spinbox = QtWidgets.QSpinBox(self.widget)
                spinbox.set_style(QtWidgets.QStyleFactory.create(style))
                spinbox.button_symbols = buttons
                self.layout_.add_widget(spinbox)


app = QtWidgets.QApplication()
window = Window()
window.show()
app.exec()

reproduces it for me

eager beacon Dec 23, 2021, 11:00 PM

#

yeah, there it is..

#

Have you tried setting your own frame and changing the shadow/shape?

#

or changing the spinbox frame, if you can do that

rocky dragon Dec 23, 2021, 11:01 PM

#

the frame seems to just be an on/off thing

#

it doesn't appear if it's disabled, but also doesn't look as good

eager beacon Dec 23, 2021, 11:03 PM

#

well, I had to open up the xscope magnifier to see the dot. most people are unlikely to notice

#

you could always make your own spinbox out of a lineedit!

#

(kidding)

rocky dragon Dec 23, 2021, 11:04 PM

#

It's a bit more noticeable with dark colours but yeah not a huge issue https://i.imgur.com/ObVIWW3.png

#

the compression doesn't help there

eager beacon Dec 23, 2021, 11:06 PM

#

you could always set the QColorRole.Window color a bit darker with a palette

#

its a bit darker than that image on macos and not as easy to see

rocky dragon Dec 23, 2021, 11:08 PM

#

Any idea on getting the spinbox to shrink its width to the current contents instead of the maximum without going through font metrics? That's pretty much the only thing I'm not entirely satisfied on with the looks apart from the dot

eager beacon Dec 23, 2021, 11:09 PM

#

No, i was going to suggest that, but I thought it was kind of hacky, so I didn't

#

Maybe you could place it inside a widget and give it a minimumExpanding size policy

#

no idea if that would work

rocky dragon Dec 23, 2021, 11:13 PM

#

the minimum size hint is the width for the maximum value so I don't think that'd work

eager beacon Dec 23, 2021, 11:14 PM

#

if you set a minimum size, thats the minimum size hint

eager beacon Dec 23, 2021, 11:41 PM

@rocky dragon This will get rid of that dot and keep it looking like a spinbox as long as you dont add the buttons back spin.setStyleSheet('.QDoubleSpinBox{border:none;border:1px solid #282828; border-radius:3px;background:#181818;}')

It seems to render a bit differently than the normal spinbox and between my test spinboxes where one has a 2 digit maximum and the second one has a 4 digit maximum; do I have to expand it a bit to account for the border? Currently I just call adjustSize when I initialize it and when I set a new maximum

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 12:06 AM

#

I don't think you should. What does it look like?

#

your spinbox looks slightly shorter than a normal one. Maybe change the border-radius to 2px?

#

The code you posted above looks like this with a border on my machine. seems fine to me

#

Though, this doesn't seem to adjust the size?

#

yeah, its always 37 pixels wide

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 12:14 AM

#

with the first one it gets taller, while with the second one it seems to do the opposite

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 12:16 AM

#

And what is the difference between the last one and the others?

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 12:16 AM

#

the first and third are what it looks like normally, the second and fourth are what it looks like with the style sheet

#

the line separates the spinbox with the max value on 9 and the second one has a max value of 999

#

I think I'll just ignore it for now and submit a bug report

#

it's only on screen for a while anyway

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 12:22 AM

#

hm, yeah I don't know. You could mess with the padding, but you'd have to do that when you resize it too, which would be a pain

#

I have no idea why the size changes on your machine though. Does it happen in the example code you posted above?

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 12:29 AM

#

Ah, I called it after adjusting the size on the first one so the border expanded it, while the second one got adjust size called once more because its max is modified

#

now they are both a bit smaller than the normal spinbox

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 12:30 AM

#

is the size difference enough to matter?

#

you could add padding: 1px 2px; to the style sheet

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 12:31 AM

#

No, not really, maybe even a bit better as it's a tooltip

#

Thanks for the help

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 12:31 AM

#

sure

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 12:53 AM

#

Anything I could've done more efficiently or directly here? I didn't particularly like querying the cursor myself to track if I'm entering the spinbox tooltip to keep it shown from the handle or leaving the spinbox to hide it https://github.com/Numerlor/Auto_Neutron/blob/2.0.3/auto_neutron/windows/gui/tooltip_slider.py

#

With the border done I think it's done if I don't plan on making it vertical, but with Qt being so big I'm not sure if there aren't better methods to get the hovering and focus behaviour

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 12:56 AM

#

honestly it looks pretty good. I'm not sure if there is a better way in this instance to handle the hover logic

#

QGraphicsItems are the only things in Qt with hoverEnter/hoverLeave events.

#

If you could some how create a widget and use that as the handle, you could use the QWidget enter/leaveEvent to track it, but as it is now, i think you would still need to track the cursor position, otherwise it would popup when entering the slider groove, etc

#

I got fed up with QSlider and ended up making my own from a QWidget

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 1:01 AM

#

that's the more drastic option

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 1:05 AM

#

I think it's done if I don't plan on making it vertical

from the looks of it, you would only need to check the orientation and use that to decide how to map the rect.

#

I hate this

#

super(self.__class__, self.__class__).maximum.__set__(self, value)

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 1:10 AM

#

Yeah I don't particularly like how the whole overriding a property works

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 1:10 AM

#

TooltipSlider.maximum = value

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 1:11 AM

#

super doesn't play nicely with it so it's either patching the setter directly or invoking it directly from the type or this

#

and while using super you also have to define the getter (and deleter if there was one) even though they do nothing additional

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 1:12 AM

#

I've never really worked with a non trivial app that used snake_case. Other than overriding, how do you like it?

#

I see signals don't care about your snake_case

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 1:13 AM

#

Apart from signals that still use camelCase, I didn't really notice it impacting me

#

the properties were a bigger mess, both on the stubs and with some I wasn't sure if it's a property or just set_something, IDE autocompletion helped there

#

Oh, and the staticmethod mess with snake case that still needs a fix from the maintainers

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 1:19 AM

#

I tried using snake_case for a project but I was so used to how Qt normally works that I kept using setters and seeing Widget has no attribute setSomething

#

I'd love to be able to use snake_case without true property

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 1:23 AM

#

I think that's what I'll try if I end up making something larger with Qt again

#

snake_case is really usable but I'd say true_property needs a bit more time, it's annoying with the stubs saying that things that have setters don't have them, and some are still accessible with the old interface even with it enabled

#

for example when I copied the style sheet call from here that has setStyleSheet and it worked fine

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 1:25 AM

#

Unless something has changed you can't. It was both or nothing last time I tried it

#

Really?

#

Thats so weird

#

does set_style_sheet work too?

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 1:27 AM

#

No, only setStyleSheet and direct assignment of the attribute

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 1:28 AM

#

oh, right.. properties

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 1:30 AM

#

eager beacon Unless something has changed you can't. It was both or nothing last time I tried...

I had only one feature enabled in one module because of a conflict between them and it seemed to work fine

#

I think I only used snake_case there

#

Seems to work when I remove it and replace the property uses

#

__feature__ stubs would also be nice so the ide doesn't freak out from it being invalid

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 1:47 AM

#

cool, I just tried it and it seems to work now

#

still don't like it 🙃

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 1:48 AM

#

Creating a minimal example to report the issue with the true_property still leaving setStyleSheet available, and it looks like it's created with the instance which is even stranger

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 1:49 AM

#

the Qt internals are a mystery to me

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 1:50 AM

#

without true_property it's a normal method on the type, with true_property it's some qt core MetaFunction that's on the instance

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 1:52 AM

#

Yeah, I have no idea what kind of hackery they used to get it working, so maybe its just something they overlooked.

#

They seem to overlook a lot of things TBH

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 1:52 AM

#

I'm even more confused as I can't call it in the example with any arguments but it works in the actual app

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 1:53 AM

#

They fix a bug in one spot but not the same bug in another

#

did you set it in the __init__ on your slider and differently in the example?

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 1:55 AM

#

I didn't use a window or anything so that's probably it, it's really leaning into the "meta"

#

even a great error TypeError: only accepts 0 argument(s), 1 given!

I also find the development somewhat difficult to follow, there are development notes on the wiki but that's really just notes on what happened that week so I have no idea what belongs to which release etc., and the self hosted git doesn't help things

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 2:10 AM

#

I just rely on the 'Whats new in 6.x' part of the docs, but that doesn't mention bug fixes

#

I'd like to imagine just they save the kind of info you're talking about for people who pay for a commercial license, but I know they don't get it either.

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 2:16 AM

#

I had an issue pop up in the latest release when I bumped from 6.2.2 to 6.2.2.1 because an issue I reported got fixed and suddenly my single shot timer wasn't single shot because I overrode a method instead of setting a property, and while I knew the fix was coming at some point I don't think there was a way to know it came in that version

#

the last mention of the issue I can find is at the start of November, and the release came a month after that

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 2:19 AM

#

They don't even send out automated emails when a release has a bug fix that you reported?

rocky dragon Dec 24, 2021, 2:20 AM

#

Just that the issue was closed, so when they commited a fix

#

really would think an actual company would have these things figured out when small projects on github are easier to make sense of what a release brought

eager beacon Dec 24, 2021, 2:27 AM

#

Yeah, Qt is a weird company. I think part of it is they just dont care because they know people are going to pay for it because they have no other good options other than writing the same app 3 times with OS native GUI frameworks

On a python discord server your answer to this question might be a little skewed 😉
The answer is probably along the lines of: "depends"
Depends on what your project is & how much it needs to scale and grow and evolve. Something quick & simple? Maybe give pysimplegui a try. Something advanced and you probably wanna dig into one of the python QT implementations

Q: "I want to make tkinter more modern"

I seen this question many times, and the answer (most of the time) just states to use ttk. If ttk is not modern enough for you, you can check out this repo: https://github.com/TomSchimansky/CustomTkinter

I have possibly a stupid question.... I want to start learning some python GUI frameworks but I don't know where to start. Is there one I should start with first like tKinter or Kivy. I have tried googling what is the best to start with but all I get is tutorials or how this one is better than this one and I have just looking for a place to start. I am leaning towards kivy but to be honest its because tKinter looks like windows 98 and i'm not a fan of that lol

I am really confused. Just got started with PyQT. Trying to understand the diff between signals and events. Despite going thru like 3 se threads , I can't quite get it

Here is what I know about events:

an event happens
respective event handler is called
event handler , if it chooses to accept the event, can handle the event by calling some function on the same class or any other class.

For signals:

event happens
event handler calls signal? (not sure abt this one)
signal alerts a slot on the same or different class
slot is called

Isnt a signal thus more or less like an event? Both call functions when an event happens. What exactly is the diff between them?

rocky dragon Dec 30, 2021, 1:54 PM

#

events are objects that go through to your method that overrides the parent's handler, then you handle the received event in that handler

#

signals notify the slots they are connected to of something occurring, then they handle it for their own needs, instead of implementing the base behaviour within the class

#

the main difference would be that when handling an event you can decide whether it's propagated further while within signals the slots know nothing about each other

rocky dragon signals notify the slots they are connected to of something occurring, then they...

what is the 'something occuring' here? Is it an event? or something else?

rocky dragon Dec 30, 2021, 2:08 PM

#

a native event for example

#

e.g. the OS' window manager telling the app that the user entered it with their mouse or something

#

but the same applies to some signals, the difference there is just how it's interpreted by Qt and exposed to the developer

thorny star Dec 30, 2021, 2:18 PM

#

rocky dragon but the same applies to some signals, the difference there is just how it's inte...

in both cases a native event happens. In the case of events, we simply reimplement the event handler, which does what we want, while in signals/slots, we emit a signal to call a slot?

#

is that right?

rocky dragon Dec 30, 2021, 2:20 PM

#

In case of events, the native event gets propagated to the right widget by Qt, then in that widget you can reimplement the event handler which can either handle the event or let it propagate further

#

in case of signals it'll emit the appropriate signal which will call all slots that were connected to it

thorny star Dec 30, 2021, 2:30 PM

#

rocky dragon in case of signals it'll emit the appropriate signal which will call all slots t...

So for events, we reimplement the event handler in the widget we intend for the event to affect, and do what we want in terms of handling it OR let the widget's parent deal with it, WHILE with signals, its just directly calling the function and is 'widget-agnostic', as in it doesnt care about what widget sent the signal and what widget the slot belongs to?

rocky dragon Dec 30, 2021, 2:30 PM

#

well you care about what widget emitted the signal, but not much beyond that

#

e.g. take a button

#

It has a clicked signal, you can connect that signal to any slot you want. If that were an event you had to reimplement on the class the interface would be much more confusing and difficult to work with as you'd need to subclass to do anything with it, even through its effects are mostly out of the widget

#

At least when connecting it that is, the slot itself doesn't see anything beyond the args if you don't look it up

thorny star Dec 30, 2021, 2:35 PM

#

rocky dragon It has a clicked signal, you can connect that signal to any slot you want. If th...

but isnt the clicked signal caused by a native event like you said?

#

So how would implementing a diff event handler for the clicked event be any diff from having an clicked signal that connected to a slot?

rocky dragon Dec 30, 2021, 2:36 PM

#

The native event is just the signaling mechanism the OS uses, it's not really related to Qt's events

#

if you wanted to reimplement the handler you'd have to subclass the button, reimplement it, decide on whether to let it propagate further and all that

#

with a signal you just connect it

thorny star Dec 30, 2021, 2:37 PM

#

rocky dragon if you wanted to reimplement the handler you'd have to subclass the button, reim...

why must I subclass the button? Cant I just overwrite the handler by making a method that shares the same name as the handler in the button class and doing what I want within it?

rocky dragon Dec 30, 2021, 2:38 PM

#

What do you mean? The method is called from the type

#

You'd have to either subclass it or patch it on the instance

thorny star Dec 30, 2021, 2:38 PM

#

you mean like a super() or something?

rocky dragon Dec 30, 2021, 2:40 PM

#

On that one I'm not really sure if you should be using super within events or let Qt handle it through accept/ignore. But you'd have to create a method within the class that overrides it

#

if you take a look at the docs you can see that the event methods are virtual https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qwidget.html#focusInEvent which means that they should be overridden in subclasses to change the default behaviour

thorny star Dec 30, 2021, 2:44 PM

#

rocky dragon On that one I'm not really sure if you should be using super within events or le...

if we want to override it , isnt super() the only way to add our funcitonality to the func while keeping the original things it does the same?

rocky dragon Dec 30, 2021, 2:45 PM

#

super allows you to access the parent method, you don't necessarily need to run it

#

I think you would use it in most cases (and have done so myself) but I haven't look too in depth at the events

thorny star Dec 30, 2021, 2:46 PM

#

So why not just use signals/slots wholly then? Both events and slots/signals achieve the same thing but one is vastly more complex than the other in terms of implementationr ight?

rocky dragon Dec 30, 2021, 2:48 PM

#

Well they offer different abstractions

#

events are at least somewhat related to the native events or something similar and you reimplement the event on the relevant widget, while signals are for pretty much everything

#

you could only have signals but then for example take keyboard events, you'd need a global keyboard object with a signal everything would need to connect to, instead of just overriding methods on the object that needs to handle it

#

Events being propagated through the objects is the big thing they do over signals, along with the different interface to the user

thorny star Dec 30, 2021, 2:57 PM

#

rocky dragon you could only have signals but then for example take keyboard events, you'd nee...

But how? if a keyboard event is just an event, wouldnt (assuming there exists an event called keyPress) implementing slots/signals for a keypress be something like widget.keyPress.connect(slot)? Why would I need a separate keyboard object?

rocky dragon Events being propagated through the objects is the big thing they do over signal...

I am confused, I've read about the different interface bit on a few se threads when reading up abt my question previously. How will the user see a diff? In the case of an event-based implementation for a mouse click event, if the user clicks, event handler handles it and does x thing
In the case of signal/slots implementation, if the user clicks, the signal is emitted to a slot which does x thing

It should be the exact same in both cases for the users right? How would they know about how it is implemented internally?

rocky dragon Dec 30, 2021, 3:11 PM

hi! I started to expand a PyQt5 project from github and I see it is all in 1 file. afaik, it is always recommended to separate functionality in different files, so I tried to do it. The problem for me now is that this kind of projects are of a special type, since all the elements belong to the same class, so it becomes difficult to extract pieces to separate files. But keeping all the stuff in one file is also not a solution, since it becomes too large at some point. I wonder, how should it be with the GUI projects? What is your experience regarding this?

The gui window classes are not the best as I didn't want to bother with methods and almost everything is in their inits, but I think from the module's user's perspective the interface is decent

#

One thing I think would be better is if signals that are needed out of the window would be done through an extra signal on the behaviour class and all the widgets private, as currently I for example use a button directly to connect to its clicked signal outside of the class

Please can someone tell me how to override the GetPopupMenu method for wxPython: If CreatePopupMenu returns None (this happens by default), no menu is shown, otherwise the menu is displayed and then deleted by the library as soon as the user dismisses it. If you don’t want the menu to be destroyed when it is dismissed, override GetPopupMenu instead.

Why does self.setMouseTracking(True) do its job in the case of this code sample:


import sys
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import (QApplication, QLabel, QWidget)


class MouseTracker(QWidget):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.initUI()
        self.setMouseTracking(True)

    def initUI(self):
        self.setGeometry(300, 300, 300, 200)
        self.setWindowTitle('Mouse Tracker')
        self.label = QLabel(self)
        self.label.resize(200, 40)
        self.show()

    def mouseMoveEvent(self, event):
        self.label.setText('Mouse coords: ( %d : %d )' % (event.x(), event.y()))


if __name__ == '__main__':
    app = QApplication(sys.argv)
    ex = MouseTracker()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())```

It too has setMouseTracking(True) which according to the tutorial I am reading states that it allows for QT to track mouse movement without needing the button to be held down. Despite that, it only works when the mouse is held down

eager beacon Dec 31, 2021, 10:50 PM

#

All QWidgets have a mouseMoveEvent and QPushButton is a QWidget. When an event is accepted( as it is in QPushButton's mouseMove) the event isn't propagated any further, so any parent widgets will never know that event happened.

#

You should probably subclass that button and implement a mouseMoveEvent in the subclass or monkey patch a function in place of the button's mouseMoveEvent

#

@thorny star

# put this outside QSuperWindow
def monkeyMouseMove(event):
    print(event.pos())

# Add in QSuperWindow __init__

eager beacon Dec 31, 2021, 11:03 PM

No, you set mouseTracking to true on a push button. Then you created a mouse move event in the containing widget. but when the event was already accepted in the push button, so it never made it to the containing widget mouseMove

Even if I had set the mouse tracking of the main window to true this wouldnt have worked right?

#

Because of the reason you had mentioned; the button handles the mouse move not making it to the reimplemnted mouse move of the widget?

eager beacon Dec 31, 2021, 11:33 PM

#

not really. If you set mouse tracking to true on the main window you can run the edge of your mouse along the top/bottom/side edges and probably see it work

rocky dragon Dec 31, 2021, 11:49 PM

#

thorny star Also why doesnt the monkey patched version have a `self` parameter?

it doesn't have a self because the attribute is set on the instance and the function won't be changed to a bound method like when accessed from an instance as a class attr

What do you mean exactly?

#

If I monkeypatch a method A and turn it into func B, when my object attempts to call 'method A', wont it implicitly pass self as an argument into func B causing an error?

rocky dragon Jan 1, 2022, 8:18 PM

#

method binding works through the descriptor protocol, which only executes for attrs that are one the type. so if you have a function on the instance, it'll just fetch it directly instead of converting it into a bound method

#

In [64]: class A:
    ...:     ...
    ...:

In [65]: a = A()

In [66]: a.f = lambda: None

In [67]: a.f()

so this executes without an error as it looks the function up on the instance

#

if you patched the method on type(self.box) then it'd need self, but also affect every instance

thorny star Jan 1, 2022, 8:59 PM

I did some reading up on this method binding thing justa while back yet I am not quite able to understand what it means exactly

#

also, what exactly is a bound method? I looked it up but didnt understand much

#

From what I read and vaguely understood, functions defined WITHIN the class are run through a descriptor protocol that returns a version of the function that implicitly adds the self argument when the function is called, but when we monkeypatch, the new monkepatched func never went through the descriptor protocol. thus avoiding the implicit self argument?

#

Is that the right way to understand it?

rocky dragon Jan 1, 2022, 9:10 PM

#

Yes

#

When it goes through the class, it runs the function's __get__ which gives you the bound method that adds self when called, but when you set it on the instance the function is a simple attribute with no special handling around it

How do i increase the size of the text on a button widget with tkinter

mortal marten Jan 2, 2022, 4:49 PM

#

So i am making a music app (like MusicBee) and am dealing with relatively big amount of QLabels in a QSplitter (5 widgets in splitter, each one is like a column filled with labels). Each column represents some type of information certain audio file has in its tags (album, artist, title, year, etc.). Column is filled when it has around 70 labels, so around 350 labels are visible to user but user can scroll down at any time to see other files' info. The thing is that there is a lag spike when i try to load more than 200 songs (when its 2000 user has to wait more than 10 seconds). Is there any way to improve the performance to make it faster? i tried saving those objects in a list a dict and then getting them depending on which group of files needs to be shown, but it barely helps since most of the time is probably spent on drawing that stuff…

pyqt5 is actually professional they got licensed versions and all that for embedded systems you can check it out surprisingly you can do insane stuff just with Qt alone

how can i disable dropdown animation for QComboBox, it doesn't have setAnimated method like QTreeView

rocky dragon Jan 4, 2022, 6:30 PM

#

I'm trying to animate some text so it moves from right to left with a fade-out on both ends, currently doing it through paint events scheduled through a QTimer but it seems a bit choppy at times, is there a nicer way to achieve that? I've got QPropertyAnimation recommended to me and moving a plain label through that, but I'm not sure how to achieve the fading there https://paste.fuelrats.com/orozezokul.py

#

Here's what it looks like right now, with the actual gradient being transparent instead of black

Have you considered using QTimeLine?

rocky dragon Jan 4, 2022, 7:53 PM

#

Will give it a look

#

after trying the animation it looks like it has the same choppiness issue, while being more complicated to implement

#

When timing the calls, there was up to a 1ms difference from the set interval and the actual time it took to get called, so that could've caused it. But if that's the issue then I'm not sure how to do it more smoothly as going for a different interval or step values only made it look weirder

eager beacon Jan 4, 2022, 8:00 PM

#

You could probably afford to increase self._scroll_timer.interval

#

Do you really need 60fps?

rocky dragon Jan 4, 2022, 8:03 PM

#

Not really, but even with higher intervals it still appeared choppy, and adjusting the step size to give it the same speed as it has above only made it worse

eager beacon Jan 4, 2022, 8:10 PM

#

ah yeah, I see what you mean.

mortal marten Jan 4, 2022, 8:17 PM

#

wet cave I’m interested in starting to do some gui development which library should use?

PyQt5 or PyQt6, it's a bit complicated for beginners but it is very powerful and you can achieve basically anything with it

wet cave Jan 4, 2022, 9:07 PM

#

Thanks

#

i don't really, i mean there is stuff on internet but it will come with experience to figure out if you're doing thing the right way, like i started with pyqt while learning object oriented programming at the same time (literally learned it so that i can use pyqt) and am still learning tons of new stuff and gradually improving my skills

#

there's tons of example code and videos online to help you and most of the questions you will have you'll find already answered on stackoverflow or qt forums

eager beacon Jan 4, 2022, 11:06 PM

#

@rocky dragon did you get it working any better than it was?

rocky dragon Jan 4, 2022, 11:10 PM

#

eager beacon <@!184351770636582913> did you get it working any better than it was?

No, I didn't look into it much more since asking, only a quick read through the QTimeLine docs

eager beacon Jan 4, 2022, 11:15 PM

#

Gotcha. I've never used QTimeLine for this specific situation, but any time I've replaced QTimer with a QTimeLine the result was much smoother

rocky dragon Jan 4, 2022, 11:18 PM

#

Will give it a try tomorrow, if that doesn't work out I'll probably just use it as is

See make two frames one on left and other on right on left frame tt to match and blende it with background and for all the option in left make a seperate frame for the display and put them in a list

#

Then just have a swap function which unpacks the current frame and packs the valid one onto right frame

#

Make sure to give ur right frame height and width, and for the subframe which goona be displayed in right frame make them pack and expand in both directions

#

Thays will do the work

unless you need something from Qt5, use PyQt6/PySide6, I don't think the Qt5 wrappers are getting any updates now

@eager beacon Seems to be about the same with the QTimeLine I tried, although I'm not sure if I'm using it correctly with the frame range. I set some random duration to see the movement and the frame range to the number of updates it has and connected it to self.label.geometry = self.label.geometry.translated(-1, 0). It seemed smoother at times but then started "skipping"
