QLineEdit outputs an empty string? - python

UPDATE I made a function to get the text from QLineEdit in the logingui file, and it works. I have no idea why the same function wouldn't work if imported from a different file.
I am trying to get text from QLineEdit on a button click, I have 2 files, logingui and loginlogic. Both the files import each other. Here's the logingui's code
import sys
from PyQt4.QtGui import *
from PyQt4.QtCore import *
import login.loginlogic
class LoginForm(QWidget):
def __init__(self):
QWidget.__init__(self, parent=None)
object = login.loginlogic
formLayout = QFormLayout()
# vboxlayout = QVBoxLayout()
serifFont = QFont("Arial", 10)
unamelbl = QLabel("Username")
unamelbl.setFont(serifFont)
pwdlbl = QLabel("Password")
pwdlbl.setFont(serifFont)
self.unamele = QLineEdit()
self.pwdle = QLineEdit()
self.unamele.setPlaceholderText("Username")
self.pwdle.setPlaceholderText("Password")
self.loginButton = QPushButton("Login")
self.loginButton.setStyleSheet("background-color: #99ff99; font-size: 15px;")
self.loginButton.setFont(serifFont)
self.loginButton.clicked.connect(object.handleLogin)
formLayout.addRow(unamelbl)
formLayout.addRow(self.unamele)
formLayout.addRow(pwdlbl)
formLayout.addRow(self.pwdle)
formLayout.addRow(self.loginButton)
formLayout.setSpacing(20)
self.setLayout(formLayout)
self.setStyleSheet("background-color: rgb(255,255,255)")
self.setMinimumSize(420, 320)
self.setMaximumSize(420, 320)
self.setContentsMargins(60, 50, 60, 50)
self.setWindowIcon(QIcon("favicon.ico"))
self.show()
def handlelogin(self):
u = self.unamele.text()
print(u)
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
form = LoginForm()
app.exec_()
here's the code from loginlogic
import login.logingui
class handleLogin():
def __init__(self):
self.obj = login.logingui.LoginForm()
self.username = self.obj.unamele.text()
print("the code did reach here my man ")
print(self.username)
if __name__ == '__main__':
a = handleLogin()
now the output that I get is
your code reached here
*blank line*
I know that's a blank line cause when I click the button again it just leaves an empty line and the reached here text again. Also when I run the logingui, I do write some text in it. Not leaving it blank.

The problem is my text label is missing from this window. I made it so big in case the label did not have enough space to fully display but in that case I think it would have displayed what it had space for. Hopefully someone knows why.
Edit: I have included the entire init function of Ui_Form. All my problems are caused in this bit the rest working ok.
The window you are viewing is not pleaseWait window but the mainWidget window.
The above is explained assuming that:
The file that is read is small, so the pleaseWait window will open and close instantly, so that being that synchronous action Qt will not have time to do it and for the user the window will never have been shown. For this case the solution is to give a reasonable time for the user to see the window.
The file is very large, the reading will take a long time blocking the eventloop, which will cause tasks such as displaying a window to not be performed, to avoid blocking the task must be executed in another thread.
Combining both solutions we obtain the following code:

self.VLayout.addWidget(self.message)
self.show()
def closeWindow(self):
self.close()
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
w = waitWindow()
w.exec_()
Okay took your code and gutted all the unessential stuff to analyze the actual issue I have included the gutted version so you can see what is necessary in the future to see what is wrong.
In short the issue is that you need to add the following line as the last line in your waitWindow function >> self.exec() by adding that I got your label to display (see code below)
Now with that said you do have another issue and that is the QDialog box will not allow the program to continue until it has been closed (aka it stops the process flow until you release it by closing the window or use a different means). My question is why not use your "main window" to display that message then repopulate with the rest of that data. Also curious why are you not using QMainWindow?

I have a mainwindow which has a button which opens a second window when clicked. This second window contains a mayavi plot. Every time I click this button an error is shown

I have looked at multiple similar questions on SO, but I cannot fix my problem.

changing the class MayaviWindow to inherit from QWidget instead of QMainwindow did not solve the problem

How can i have a transparent background in a pyside QWidget, but keep its children opaque

I suspect the real problem is that the style sheet you specify is propagating to the child widgets.
So, remove...
self.setStyleSheet("background-color:rgba(40,40,150,150);border:0px;")
and override QWidget::paintEvent with something like...
def paintEvent(self, event):
painter = QPainter(self)
painter.fillRect(self.rect(), QColor(40, 40, 150, 150))

How do I put a QComboBox inside QColumnView

Scenario: I need to put a combo box inside the 4th column in qcolumnview, so the user can choose ON or OFF.
Description: In the future this will be saved as an XML file, so the user can select the parameter and generate a custom XML file.
Can someone tell me how do I do that?

continue
parent = QtGui.QStandardItem(x)
parent.setFlags(QtCore.Qt.ItemIsEnabled | QtCore.Qt.ItemIsSelectable)
for y in self.iq_xml[x]:
if not self.iq_xml[x][y]:

self.setGeometry(300, 300, 1000, 300)
self.setWindowTitle('IQ XML Creator')
self.show()
def main():
app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
ex = xml_creator()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()
I could not find a solution for that but I found a workaround, so I'm posting hoping to help who has the same problem as me.
Once I couldnt put the combobox in the QColumnView as I was trying, my workaround was to create a table filled with the comboboxes I wanted, and then setting this QTable as the preview widget in QColumnView.

Keep menu open after clicking on the button it is launched with

I have a QToolButton with a menu. When the QToolButton is clicked, the menu appears. The default behavior is that when an action is clicked from the menu, the menu disappears. How can I make it so that the menu stays open until the user clicks elsewhere?
Here is minimal code that shows the behavior:
from PyQt4 import QtGui, QtCore
import sys, os
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
toolButton = QtGui.QToolButton()
toolButton.setText('Select')
toolMenu = QtGui.QMenu()
for i in range(3):
action = toolMenu.addAction(str(i))
action.setCheckable(True)
toolButton.setMenu(toolMenu)
toolButton.setPopupMode(QtGui.QToolButton.InstantPopup)
toolButton.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
Shamelessly porting this code from this c++ answer:
from PyQt4 import QtGui, QtCore
import sys, os
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
toolButton = QtGui.QToolButton()
toolButton.setText('Select')
toolMenu = QtGui.QMenu()
for i in range(3):
checkBox = QtGui.QCheckBox(str(i), toolMenu)
checkableAction = QtGui.QWidgetAction(toolMenu)
checkableAction.setDefaultWidget(checkBox)
toolMenu.addAction(checkableAction)
toolButton.setMenu(toolMenu)
toolButton.setPopupMode(QtGui.QToolButton.InstantPopup)
toolButton.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
I made a PyQt5 version based on #three_pineapples's answer and solved what #Space Hornet tried to solve--get the states of checkboxes.
According to the doc of QWidgetAction:
Note that it is up to the widget to activate the action, for example
by reimplementing mouse event handlers and calling QAction::trigger().
So I think one needs to connect the checkbox's stateChanged signal to the action's trigger method.
I also added the a text to the action therefore action.text() gives the same text label as the checkbox. May not be necessary though.
Complete code below:
import sys
from PyQt5 import QtWidgets
from PyQt5.QtCore import pyqtSlot
#pyqtSlot(QtWidgets.QAction)
def menuTriggered(action):
print('state change=',action.text())
return
#pyqtSlot(QtWidgets.QMenu)
def buttonTriggered(menu):
actions=menu.findChildren(QtWidgets.QWidgetAction)
for actii in actions:
wii=actii.defaultWidget()
stateii=wii.isChecked()
print('action', actii.text(), 'is checked:',stateii)
return
if __name__ == '__main__':
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
toolButton = QtWidgets.QToolButton()
toolButton.setText('Select')
toolMenu = QtWidgets.QMenu()
for i in range(3):
checkBox = QtWidgets.QCheckBox(str(i), toolMenu)
checkableAction = QtWidgets.QWidgetAction(toolMenu)
checkableAction.setDefaultWidget(checkBox)
# Add a text to action, for easier handling in slot
checkableAction.setText(str(i))
# Connect the checkbox's stateChanged to QAction.trigger
checkBox.stateChanged.connect(checkableAction.trigger)
toolMenu.addAction(checkableAction)
toolMenu.triggered.connect(menuTriggered)
toolButton.setMenu(toolMenu)
toolButton.setPopupMode(QtWidgets.QToolButton.MenuButtonPopup)
# NOTE that toolButton.clicked work, toolButton.triggered not
toolButton.clicked.connect(lambda: buttonTriggered(toolMenu))
toolButton.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
The easiest solution I've managed to find is to make an addition to actionEvent:
class myMenu(QtGui.QMenu):
def actionEvent(self, event):
super().actionEvent(event)
self.show()
I was looking for the exact same thing and used the code from three_pineapples, but I had trouble connecting it the way I wanted. I thought I'd share my solution in case anyone else finds it useful.
The button function is very similar but my code includes my solution for connecting the checkboxes to a function. Also, since they are stored in a list one can connect them individually or in a loop if that's easier.
