QT-Dialog convert to python

[Chri1]

Hello
I made a dialog in QT-Creator and tried to convert it for Win7 like in www.freecadweb.org/wiki/Dialog_creation :
"@C:\Python27\python" "C:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\PySide\scripts\uic.py" %1.ui > %1.py"

But on the whole PC I cannot find uic.py and also no folder Python27
(QT is installed and of course FreeCad)

Where can I get it / What is to do?

Thanks for your help

How experienced are you at using Python, Qt, compiling from source, and software development in general?

That page is pretty old, so the information is outdated. The last major change, that was not about typos and translations, occurred in 2016. Since then FreeCAD has transitioned to using Qt5 instead of Qt4, and also prefers Python 3 rather than Python 2.

The Dialog creation topic is intended for power users or developers, so more experience with programming is assumed by the reader. You can probably find yourself what needs to be changed to get the dialog working, but as I said, you need to have more experience with Qt, and going online to read the reference documentation and find answers.

Unfortunately, the wiki documentation intended for developers is quite outdated. Until it is brought up to date, you have to fend for yourself. I suggest you take a look at the actual source code of FreeCAD (https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD) and try to see how the workbenches do what they do. You should visit macros recipes and external workbenches, as they may show you how to produce the dialogs that you want. If you use a macro, look at its source code, copy it, and base your own code on that.

hi

you must install Python27 in "C:\Python27" and pyQt for use this .bat (now PySide is used)

i have install Python 3.6 and PyQt5 for the actual FC and always error error with pyuic.py

i tray with pyuic5.exe (C:\Python36\Scripts) i use

Code: Select all

@"C:/Python36/Scripts/pyuic5.exe" %1.ui > %1.py

and work fine but more light just the class Ui_MainWindow(object) without "démarrage"

(i upgrade the wiki later)

Hi

Hi

Tried many versions of phython, but finaly it worked like this – thanks Mario:

I installed Python:
https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.6.8 ... -amd64.exe
and from cmd:
pip3 install PyQt5-sip
pip3 install PyQt5
then Cpyuic5.exe bkneu.ui bkneu.py worked and I mad a .bat:
@" C:\Users\...\Scripts\pyuic5.exe" %1.ui > %1.py

But now I have the problem to run the dialog:

Code: Select all

from PySide import QtGui
import bkneu
d = QtGui.QWidget()
d.ui = bkneu.Ui_Dialog()
d.ui.setupUi(d)  -> Makes Error
d.show()

Error:
QLabel(parent: QWidget = None, flags: Union[Qt.WindowFlags, Qt.WindowType] = Qt.WindowFlags()): argument 1 has unexpected type 'PySide2.QtWidgets.QWidget'
QLabel(str, parent: QWidget = None, flags: Union[Qt.WindowFlags, Qt.WindowType] = Qt.WindowFlags()): argument 1 has unexpected type 'PySide2.QtWidgets.QWidget'

bkneu.py:

Code: Select all

from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets


class Ui_Dialog(object):
    def setupUi(self, Dialog):
        Dialog.setObjectName("Dialog")
        Dialog.resize(400, 262)
        Dialog.setStyleSheet("background-color: rgb(206, 220, 233);")
        self.label = QtWidgets.QLabel(Dialog)   -> Here seems to be the error

What is now wrong?

and this (single)

Hi
It works!

Code: Select all

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

# Form implementation generated from reading ui file 'bkneu.ui'
#
# Created by: PyQt5 UI code generator 5.12.1
#
# WARNING! All changes made in this file will be lost!


import PySide
from PySide import QtGui ,QtCore
from PySide.QtGui import *
from PySide.QtCore import *

from PySide2.QtWidgets import QApplication, QDialog, QLineEdit, QPushButton

class Ui_Dialog(object):
    def setupUi(self, Dialog):
        Dialog.setObjectName("Dialog")
        Dialog.resize(400, 262)
        QtWidgets = PySide.QtGui
        self.label = QtWidgets.QLabel(Dialog)
        self.label.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(30, 10, 151, 16))
        font = QtGui.QFont()
        font.setPointSize(12)
        ….

The important Thing was: QtWidgets = PySide.QtGui

And start from FreeCad-PythonConsole:

Code: Select all

import PySide
from PySide import QtGui ,QtCore
from PySide.QtGui import *
from PySide.QtCore import *
import bkneu
MainWindow = QtGui.QMainWindow() 
ui = bkneu.Ui_Dialog() 
ui.setupUi(MainWindow) 
MainWindow.show()

Probably not all lines are really necessary …

Additional.
After some try and error I added this Code:

Code: Select all

class doit():
   def __init__(self):
       self.d = QQtGui.QMainWindow() 
       self.d.ui = bkneu.Ui_Dialog()
       self.d.ui.setupUi(self.d)
       self.d.show()

And now it works also with: bkneu.doit()

Code: Select all

class doit():
   def __init__(self):
       self.d = QtGui.QMainWindow() 
       self.d.ui = bkneu.Ui_Dialog()
       self.d.ui.setupUi(self.d)
       self.d.show()
