I'm new at PyQt, and I'm trying to create a main window containing two custom widgets, the first being a data grapher, the second being a QGridLayout containing QLabels. Problem is: the two widgets open in separate windows and have no content.
I've found multiple posts with a similar problem:
PyQt5 Custom Widget Opens in Another Window
Custom widget does not appear on Main Window
PyQt5 Custom Widget Opens in Another Window
And even a FAQ on this specific problem: https://www.pythonguis.com/faq/pyqt-widgets-appearing-as-separate-windows/
But I haven't been able to figure out why my code doesn't work. My aim is to obtain a result as shown below on the left, but instead I'm getting a result as shown on the right:
My code is the following (can be copied and run as it is):
from PyQt5.QtCore import Qt
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QLabel, QVBoxLayout, QWidget, QGridLayout
from PyQt5.QtGui import QFont
import sys
import pyqtgraph as pg
class CustomWidget_1(QWidget):
def __init__(self):
super(CustomWidget_1, self).__init__()
self.channels = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
self.win = pg.GraphicsLayoutWidget(title='Plot', size=(800, 600))
self.plots = list()
self.curves = list()
for i in range(len(self.channels)):
p = self.win.addPlot(row=i, col=0)
p.showAxis('left', False)
p.setMenuEnabled('left', False)
p.showAxis('bottom', False)
p.setMenuEnabled('bottom', False)
self.plots.append(p)
curve = p.plot()
self.curves.append(curve)
self.win.show()
print('CustomWidget_1 initialized.')
class CustomWidget_2(QWidget):
def __init__(self, labelnames):
super(CustomWidget_2, self).__init__()
self.grid = QGridLayout()
self.labelnames = labelnames
self.qlabels = []
for label in self.labelnames:
labelBox = QLabel(label)
labelBox.setFont(QFont('Arial', 16))
labelBox.setStyleSheet('border: 2px solid black;')
labelBox.setAlignment(Qt.AlignCenter)
self.qlabels.append(labelBox)
index = self.labelnames.index(label)
q, r = divmod(index, 6)
self.grid.addWidget(labelBox, q, r)
print('CustomWidget_2 initialized.')
class MainWindow(QWidget):
def __init__(self):
super(MainWindow, self).__init__()
self.labelnames = ['label 1', 'label 2', 'label 3']
self.CustomWidget_1 = CustomWidget_1()
self.CustomWidget_1.setParent(self)
self.CustomWidget_1.show()
self.CustomWidget_2 = CustomWidget_2(self.labelnames)
self.CustomWidget_2.setParent(self)
self.CustomWidget_2.show()
self.mainLayout = QVBoxLayout()
self.mainLayout.addWidget(self.CustomWidget_1)
self.mainLayout.addWidget(self.CustomWidget_2)
self.setLayout(self.mainLayout)
self.show()
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
predictVisualizer = MainWindow()
sys.exit(app.exec())
Could anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong and how I could fix it? Any pointers towards tutorials and/or templates would be greatly appreciated as well! Thanks!
you should write fewer lines of code and debug slowly, if you are new to pyqt5 you should read carefully the basic Layout creation, like you are creating a website interface, link: https://www.pythonguis.com/tutorials/pyqt-layouts/
This is the code I have edited, you can can refer:

I have a PyQT application with a toolbar, a set of buttons, and a bottom row of additional buttons. I'd like to add a TextEdit underneath the bottom row that the user can hide or show. I would like the TextEdit to extend the bottom portion when being shown but, when the user hides it, I would like that bottom portion removed without affecting the height, width, or sizing of any other of the buttons. Imagine just taking a pair of scissors to the TextEdit section when the user hides it but then gluing it back on when the user wants it back. Is this even possible to do in PyQt? The closest I've found is the implementation below which resizes all the buttons.

Resizing the widget alone is not a valid solution, because it only overrides the geometry set by the layout without notifying the parent widget.
This is also important as you should not resize the widget based on its hint alone when showing the log: if you increase the size of the window while the log is hidden and then show it again, it will not occupy all the available space.
What you need to do is to access the top level window, force its layout to lay out its contents again, and use its hint to for the resize.
def resize_hide(self):
self.window().layout().activate()
self.window().resize(
self.window().width(),
self.window().minimumSizeHint().height()
)
You can set the alignment policy for your top widget:
[...]
self.total_layout.setAlignment(self.app_widgets, Qt.AlignTop)
self.setLayout(self.total_layout)
[...]
The app_widget will not be resized anymore when you hide your text edit.
I've created aQMainWindow with menubar and 4 dockable widgets. First dockwidget contents multipletabs, second is Qpainter widget, third is Matlabplot and fourth is pdf report.
When I run the code shows up like this below.
I want to be like below.
I want to divide screen into four widget automatically whenever it runs at any screen, And I want to have tabs to resize to its content.
Or do you have any better idea of having such widget, you are welcome to come with it.
Update of code
Resize of Qdockwidget brings this post forward. It seems that Qt Qdockwidget resize has been an issue for long time ago. I find it very difficult to program my Qmainwindow with 4 Qdockwidget, which the dock would fit and resize according to its contents, with other words, child widget. and According to Qt documentation, Qdockwidget resizes and respect the size of child Widgets. to get straight to problem, my mainwindow has 4 qdockwidgets, I would like to have them resizable according to contents.
What I have tried and used so far.
I have used following size functions.
self.sizeHint, self.minimumSize(), self.maximumSize() and self.setFixedSize(self.sizeHint()).
I am able to fix the size of contents in first Qdockwidget by using following codes.
self.setFixedSize(self.sizeHint())
Above code is written in the child widgets Class widgets
But that is not enough in order to work it, despite following codes needed to run and effect.
self.first.setMinimumSize(self.first.sizeHint())
self.grid.setMinimumSize(self.grid.sizeHint())
self.third.setMinimumSize(self.third.sizeHint())
self.adjustSize()
self.first.setMinimumSize(self.first.minimumSizeHint())
self.grid.setMinimumSize(self.grid.minimumSizeHint())
self.third.setMinimumSize(self.third.minimumSizeHint())
Noting that still my dockwindow does not resize according to child widgets. Dockwidget expand and increase. One may ask, Qdockwidgets could arrange and control by resizeDocks(). This code line is used and tried, but still does not get the desired behaviour.
I have been looking around and could find some relevant questions.
C++ resize a docked Qt QDockWidget programmatically?
Forcing a QDockWidget to behave like a central widget when it comes to resizing
Create a QDockWidget that resizes to it's contents
Those questions do not solve my problem.
Visualization of my code launch
1- When code runs and display on screen.
2- Desired and wanted display by first run of software.
3- When user tabs between tabwidgets want to resize to its content as image below.
4- The code is given below.

I would appreciate much any help on this.
If floating windows aren't essential to your tool then you can try dropping QDockWidget and using a series of QSplitter instead. This way you can have your nice box layout while having tabs to resize horizontally and vertically, and still resizing properly when the tool as a whole resizes.
My example is in PySide2, but you'll probably need to do very minor tweaks to PyQt5 (probably just the import names):
from PySide2 import QtCore
from PySide2 import QtGui
from PySide2 import QtWidgets
class SubWindow(QtWidgets.QWidget):
def __init__(self, label, parent=None):
super(SubWindow, self).__init__(parent)
self.label = QtWidgets.QLabel(label, parent=self)
self.label.setAlignment(QtCore.Qt.AlignCenter)
self.label.setStyleSheet("QLabel {font-size:40px;}")
self.main_layout = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout()
self.main_layout.addWidget(self.label)
self.setLayout(self.main_layout)
class MainWindow(QtWidgets.QWidget):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(MainWindow, self).__init__(parent)
self.sub_win_1 = SubWindow("1", parent=self)
self.sub_win_2 = SubWindow("2", parent=self)
self.sub_win_3 = SubWindow("3", parent=self)
self.sub_win_4 = SubWindow("4", parent=self)
self.sub_splitter_1 = QtWidgets.QSplitter(QtCore.Qt.Horizontal, parent=self)
self.sub_splitter_1.addWidget(self.sub_win_1)
self.sub_splitter_1.addWidget(self.sub_win_2)
self.sub_splitter_2 = QtWidgets.QSplitter(QtCore.Qt.Horizontal, parent=self)
self.sub_splitter_2.addWidget(self.sub_win_3)
self.sub_splitter_2.addWidget(self.sub_win_4)
self.splitter = QtWidgets.QSplitter(QtCore.Qt.Vertical, parent=self)
self.splitter.addWidget(self.sub_splitter_1)
self.splitter.addWidget(self.sub_splitter_2)
self.main_layout = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout()
self.main_layout.addWidget(self.splitter)
self.setLayout(self.main_layout)
self.setWindowTitle("Layout example")
self.resize(500, 500)
inst = MainWindow()
inst.show()
This gives you something like this:
Right now the top/bottom horizontal splitters function separately, but you can easily tie them together with an event.
Hope that helps!
I am trying to make dynamic widgets and make them clickable. By clicking on one widget it should pass dynamic value to other widget. I have tried sender() and other options accessing the widget but nothing worked.
All the widgets are sending information from the last widget.
Below is the code:
import sys
from PyQt5.QtGui import QIcon, QPixmap
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget, QMainWindow, QPushButton, QLabel, QMessageBox,QSizePolicy, QLayoutItem,QFrame,QHBoxLayout, QGridLayout, QVBoxLayout
from PyQt5.QtCore import QCoreApplication,QSize,QFileInfo
from PyQt5.QtCore import *
from PyQt5.QtGui import *
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *
from functools import partial
from PyQt5.QtCore import pyqtSlot
import sip
class Screen(QWidget):
def __init__(self):
super(Screen, self).__init__()
self.running_layout = QVBoxLayout()
self.action_layout = QVBoxLayout()
self.layout = QHBoxLayout(self)
self.layout.addLayout(self.running_layout)
self.layout.addLayout(self.action_layout)
self.setLayout(self.layout)
self.show()
self.all_running()
self.actions_1('1')
def buttonClicked(self):
sender = self.sender()
print(sender + ' was pressed')
def all_running(self):
for i in range(5):
button = QLabel("btn "+str(i))
button.mouseReleaseEvent = lambda _ : self.actions_1(str(button.text()).split()[1])
self.running_layout.addWidget(button)
button2 = QLabel("btn 5")
button2.mouseReleaseEvent = lambda _ : self.actions_1(str(button2.text()).split()[1])
self.running_layout.addWidget(button2)
def actions_1(self,value):
while not self.action_layout.isEmpty():
print(self.action_layout.isEmpty())
widget = self.action_layout.itemAt(0).widget()
print("removing", widget)
widget.setVisible(False)
self.action_layout.removeWidget(widget)
del widget
self.action_layout = QVBoxLayout()
self.layout.addLayout(self.action_layout)
val = int(value)
for i in range(val):
actions_item = QLabel(str(i))
self.action_layout.addWidget(actions_item)
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
Gui = Screen()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
Edited: I am trying to pass an int to actions based on the int value that number of widgets need to get populate.
This int is based on the dynamic widget which i generated using the for loop.
For example if the first widget of running_layout "btn 0" is clicked there won't be any widgets in the action_layout, If the second widget of running_layout "btn 1" is clicked there will be one widget "0" in the action_layout and so on based on the widget number.
I am able to send the signal but on whichever dynamically created widget i click it is sending value 4 of last widget "btn 4" to the action_layout.
To simplify the task we will create 2 widgets, the first one will be ClickableWidget that will have a signal indicating the number associated with the widget, whereas the second DynamicWidget will have a method that will be in charge of updating the number of widgets.
To know if an element is pressed we use the method installEventFilter() and eventFilter(), this filters the events giving information of the object and event, we will use setProperty("index", ) to store the number.
In the second widget I have implemented a method that is responsible for cleaning the widgets and creating some new widgets.
class ClickableWidget(QWidget):
clicked = pyqtSignal(int)
def __init__(self, n=5, parent=None):
QWidget.__init__(self, parent)
self.hlayout = QVBoxLayout(self)
for i in range(n):
label = QLabel("btn {}".format(i), self)
label.setProperty("index", i)
self.hlayout.addWidget(label)
label.installEventFilter(self)
def eventFilter(self, obj, event):
if isinstance(obj, QLabel) and event.type() == QEvent.MouseButtonPress:
i = obj.property("index")
self.clicked.emit(i)
return QWidget.eventFilter(self, obj, event)
class DynamicWidget(QWidget):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
QWidget.__init__(self, parent)
self.hlayout = QVBoxLayout(self)
def changeWidget(self, n):
def clearLayout(layout):
item = layout.takeAt(0)
while item:
w = item.widget()
if w:
w.deleteLater()
lay = item.layout()
if lay:
clearLayout(item.layout())
item = layout.takeAt(0)
clearLayout(self.hlayout)
for i in range(n):
label = QLabel("btn {}".format(i), self)
self.hlayout.addWidget(label)
class Screen(QWidget):
def __init__(self):
super(Screen, self).__init__()
self.layout = QHBoxLayout(self)
c = ClickableWidget(6, self)
d = DynamicWidget(self)
c.clicked.connect(d.changeWidget)
self.layout.addWidget(c)
self.layout.addWidget(d)
