I want to add Qlabels on runtime by clicking the pushbutton.
For example, I want to add "Helloworld" text label each time the button is clicked.
I have written code but it replaces not add Qlabel in scrollArea, I want to add "Helloworld" in the scrollArea each time the pushbutton is pressed. Secondly, I have created the Qlabel label_99 on runtime, But I think this will not work. As
multiple Qlabels must be created on runtime, as I want to add Qlabel each time I click a pushbutton.

setWidget sets the widget for the scroll are, and that is why the code you have doesn't work since it removes the previous widget from the scroll area, and sets the new label as the scroll area widget.
You need to create a new instance of QLabel, and add it to the layout of the scroll area widget, which is self.verticalLayout for the above class.
def add_new_label(self):
newLabel = QtWidgets.QLabel('Hello World')
self.verticalLayout.addWidget(newLabel)
The code to create new label and assign it class instance attribute as self.label_99 = QtWidgets.QLabel() is useless in your case. You just need to create a local variable to hold the label, and finally add it to the scroll area's widget's layout.

im trying to create a new label and display it on the screen when the button is pressed but nothing happens when i press it. i can modify values of existing labels but i cant figure out how to make new ones while the program is running i have a starting x, y values and im trying to make a new object inside the function then set the geometry and text of the label the problem is just displaying the label on the screen and i cant figure out what im doing wrong.
the issue here is that you're not showing the label after adding it, you can fix that by adding
self.new_label.show()
at the end of your add_label function.

How to switch from LOGINCLICK.py to LOGIN.py by clicking a button?
First of all, and this is more a matter of concept, you're not going to "switch" between those files, but between the instances of the classes that are in those files.
Second, you should create a file that acts as a "main" script, which is the file that you'll actually run from python; this is a general rule for programs that use multiple files as "modules", and is almost mandatory for PyQt when using files generated by pyuic; note that you should also never modify the contents of those files, but import them as python modules (read more about using Designer).
Recreate the files with pyuic, then create a new file that will look like this:
from PyQt5 import QtWidgets
from LOGINCLICK import Ui_MainWindow
from LOGIN import Ui_LOGIN_PAGE
class MainWindow(QtWidgets.QMainWindow, Ui_MainWindow):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.setupUi(self)
self.pushButton1.clicked.connect(self.showLogin)
def showLogin(self):
self.loginWindow = LoginWindow()
self.loginWindow.show()
class LoginWindow(QtWidgets.QMainWindow, Ui_LOGIN_PAGE):
def __init__(self):
super().__init__()
self.setupUi(self)
if __name__ == '__main__':
import sys
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
mainWindow = MainWindow()
mainWindow.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
Now, some suggestions:
avoid fixed geometries in any case, and use layout managers instead (like QGridLayout, QHBoxLayout or QVBoxLayout) so that the contents of the windows will always adjust to the available size, otherwise some of the widgets might become unaccessible if the user resizes the window to a smaller size than you decided (there are also other reasons for this, but this is the most important);
don't use uppercase names for files or variables; read more about naming conventions in the Style Guide for Python Code;
a login window should probably be "modal" (shown over the current windows and avoiding interaction with them until the login window is closed); you can use a QDialog for this: from Designer create a new empty dialog, copy the elements of your current login form and paste them to the new dialog (or select all of them and use ctrl+drag), save and generate the file with pyuic, then change the above code considering the following modifications:
class MainWindow(QtWidgets.QMainWindow, Ui_MainWindow):
#...
def showLogin(self):
self.loginWindow = LoginWindow(self)
self.loginWindow.exec_()
class LoginWindow(QtWidgets.QDialog, Ui_LOGIN_PAGE):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super().__init__()
self.setupUi(self)
Hello dear Users of stackoverflow
Introduction:
I am kind of new to Python and want to build a touch GUI for my Raspberry Pi with PyQt5. Therefore, I use the QtDesigner to build up .ui files on Windows 7. After that, the files are translated to .py files using "pyuic5 -x file.ui -o file.py" in the LXTerminal of the Pi.
My GUI:
I need to build up one output window (MainWindow) with a label and a push button, which opens up another window (I chose Dialog) for input. The input window has a spin box to set the value and a horizontal slider for bigger value steps. At the bottom of the window is a push button, which sets the spin box value as global variable and closes the Input window again.
The problem:
I want the push button of the input window that closes this window to also refresh the output label of the MainWindow, so that it shows the new value.
Pictures:
I am not allowed to embed Pictures of my GUI yet, so please see the following links.
MainWindow
InputWindow
InputWindow with Connections between slider and spin box
My Code:
The following code is a simple example and has everything working except the refresh of the Label. Please help me to get this work, even if it might be very simple for advanced and professional developers. I spent days on trying and googling for this and got lots of more complicated things working.
Best wishes,
RaspiManu

MainWindow.show()

pg.plot(L)

Pg.plot returns an instance of the pg.graphicsWindows.PlotWindow class, and this class inherits from QGraphicsView, ie pg.graphicsWindows.PlotWindow is used to plot but QGraphicsView is not. If you want to embed a plot within the Widget you must use the class pg.PlotWidget(), you must change:
self.graphicsView = QtWidgets.QGraphicsView(self.centralwidget)
to:
self.graphicsView = pg.PlotWidget(self.centralwidget)
and:
def btn_clk(self):
L = [1,2,3,4,5]
self.graphicsView.plot(L)#this line doesn't work

I have made a UI which has various actions in three toolbars. I'm trying to make the font of one action bold when it is pressed and released by mouse. I know how to make the font bold one-by-one. But I'm going to add tens of actions in those three toolbars. How would I be able to do this? Can anyone help me?
Thank you very much.
The main function does make the font of action1 bold.
Main function:
from uitest import Ui_MainWindow
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QMainWindow
class window(QMainWindow):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(window, self).__init__(parent)
self.ui = Ui_MainWindow()
self.ui.setupUi(self)
myFont = QtGui.QFont()
myFont.setBold(True)
self.ui.Action1.setFont(myFont)
if __name__ == "__main__":
app = QApplication([])
gui = window()
gui.show()
app.exec_()

UI is created by PyQt5 designer.
One way to do this would be to connect to the actionTriggered signal of each toolbar, which sends the action that was clicked. Assuming you only want one action bold at a time, you can then use this to turn on bold for the current action and turn off bold for the previous action (if there is one):
class window(QMainWindow):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
...
for toolbar in self.findChildren(QtWidgets.QToolBar):
toolbar.actionTriggered.connect(self.setBoldAction)
def setBoldAction(self, target, toolbar=None):
if toolbar is None:
toolbar = self.sender()
for action in toolbar.actions():
if not action.isSeparator():
font = action.font()
font.setBold(action is target)
action.setFont(font)
If you want to set the bold action programmatically, you can also do:
self.setBoldAction(action, toolbar)
