🔒 Qt Designer Help

[tepid rain]

Anybody use Qt Designer?
If so what was the work flow of creating the UI and saving it > converting .ui to .py > adding logical code > needing to add more UI?

I mean I can go back to qt designer and add more, but I'd have to copy all of my added logical code to the new ui to py conversion.

Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Closes after a period of inactivity, or when you send !close.

I mean it feels like I have to create the full UI before making any logical code and if I do make any UI changes, I have to manually copy over all the logical code I did.

You can load UI files instead of converting them to Python

[dire pewter]

The code you generate with uic should be separate from the code handling the logic. Here's an example from Riverbank on how uic output should be used with your app logic (it's a similar idea to PySide). Trying to put the logic and generated UI into the same file will only lead to problems down the line.

As said above, you may also load the UI directly via QUiLoader (PySide) or uic (PyQt), but that comes with the disadvantage that your IDE won't be able to tell what the UI elements are (as they're being loaded from an ui file).
