QDialog not opening from Main window (pyQt) - python

I'm trying to launch a dialog by clicking a button in the main window: Here's the (qtdesigner generated) code which I modified just to test it .. I've set the showDial function to show the dial when the button is clicked. But it doesn't work :
from PyQt4 import QtCore, QtGui
try:
_fromUtf8 = QtCore.QString.fromUtf8
except AttributeError:
_fromUtf8 = lambda s: s
class Ui_Dialog(object):
def setupUi(self, Dialog):
Dialog.setObjectName(_fromUtf8("Dialog"))
Dialog.setWindowModality(QtCore.Qt.WindowModal)
Dialog.resize(400, 300)
Dialog.setWindowTitle(QtGui.QApplication.translate("Dialog", "Dialog", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8))
self.retranslateUi(Dialog)
QtCore.QMetaObject.connectSlotsByName(Dialog)
def retranslateUi(self, Dialog):
pass
class Ui_MainWindow(object):
def setupUi(self, MainWindow):
MainWindow.setObjectName(_fromUtf8("MainWindow"))
MainWindow.resize(309, 148)
MainWindow.setWindowTitle(QtGui.QApplication.translate("MainWindow", "MainWindow", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8))
self.centralwidget = QtGui.QWidget(MainWindow)
self.centralwidget.setObjectName(_fromUtf8("centralwidget"))
self.pushButton = QtGui.QPushButton(self.centralwidget)
self.pushButton.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(50, 30, 191, 71))
self.pushButton.setText(QtGui.QApplication.translate("MainWindow", "Open Dialog", None, QtGui.QApplication.UnicodeUTF8))
self.pushButton.setObjectName(_fromUtf8("pushButton"))
MainWindow.setCentralWidget(self.centralwidget)
self.retranslateUi(MainWindow)
QtCore.QObject.connect(self.pushButton, QtCore.SIGNAL(_fromUtf8("clicked(QAbstractButton*)")), self.showDial)
QtCore.QMetaObject.connectSlotsByName(MainWindow)
def retranslateUi(self, MainWindow):
pass
def showDial(self):
Dialog = QtGui.QDialog()
u = Ui_Dialog()
u.setupUi(Dialog)
Dialog.exec_()
if __name__ == "__main__":
import sys
app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
MainWindow = QtGui.QMainWindow()
ui = Ui_MainWindow()
ui.setupUi(MainWindow)
MainWindow.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())

There is error in signal connection, it should be:
QtCore.QObject.connect(self.pushButton, QtCore.SIGNAL(_fromUtf8("clicked()")), self.showDial)
or in more pythonic New-style Signal and Slot syntax for PyQt 4.5+:
self.pushButton.clicked.connect(self.showDial)

PyQt5 how to show keyinput in QLineEdit? [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:
How to record a pressed key combination in the PyQT5 dialog window
(1 answer)
Closed 3 years ago.
I am trying to get a readonly QLineEdit in a second window to show the name of the key pressed. For example if I press key a it shows a Key and if I press the spacebar it shows SpaceBar Key. I searched the net for solutions but most of them were about how to close a window when a certain key is pressed.
I have a working sample made with tkinter linked below.
https://gist.github.com/sangonkim/e397c420d93485f3896f9440bbcc77aa
I made 2 simple windows with QDesigner for the question.
from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets
class Ui_MainWindow(object):
def setupUi(self, MainWindow):
MainWindow.setObjectName("MainWindow")
MainWindow.resize(347, 259)
self.centralwidget = QtWidgets.QWidget(MainWindow)
self.centralwidget.setObjectName("centralwidget")
self.pushButton = QtWidgets.QPushButton(self.centralwidget)
self.pushButton.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(110, 110, 121, 28))
self.pushButton.clicked.connect(self.connect)
self.pushButton.setObjectName("pushButton")
MainWindow.setCentralWidget(self.centralwidget)
self.retranslateUi(MainWindow)
QtCore.QMetaObject.connectSlotsByName(MainWindow)
def connect(self):
self.window = QtWidgets.QMainWindow()
self.ui = Ui_MainWindow2()
self.ui.setupUi(self.window)
self.window.show()
def retranslateUi(self, MainWindow):

MainWindow.setWindowTitle(_translate("MainWindow", "MainWindow"))
self.pushButton.setText(_translate("MainWindow", "To next window"))

MainWindow.setObjectName("MainWindow")
MainWindow.resize(384, 261)
self.centralwidget = QtWidgets.QWidget(MainWindow)
self.centralwidget.setObjectName("centralwidget")
self.lineEdit = QtWidgets.QLineEdit(self.centralwidget)

import sys
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
Main_Window = QtWidgets.QMainWindow()
ui = Ui_MainWindow()
ui.setupUi(Main_Window)
Main_Window.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
I've tried adding
def keyinput(self, event):
print(event.key())
to Ui_MainWindow2see if I can capture the key I an typing. But it does not work.
And also tried
def keyinput(self, event):
self.lineEdit.setText(str(event.key()))
And failed.
into setupUi add:
MainWindow.keyPressEvent = self.newOnkeyPressEvent
and define function:
def newOnkeyPressEvent(self, event):
key = event.key()
modifiers = int(event.modifiers())
keyname = QtGui.QKeySequence(modifiers + key).toString()
print(keyname)
self.lineEdit.setText(str(keyname))

advice me plz
Thank you,

PyQt recommends not modifying the .py generated by pyuic and Qt Designer but creating another file that uses that class to fill a widget so I recommend regenerating the MainWindow.py and dialog.py files.
Now create a main.py where we inherit the appropriate class by setting a constructor with the requirement:
main.py
from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets
from dialog import Ui_Dialog
from MainWindow import Ui_MainWindow
class Dialog(QtWidgets.QDialog, Ui_Dialog):
def __init__(self, text, parent=None):
super(Dialog, self).__init__(parent)
self.setupUi(self)
self.lineEdit.setText(text)
class MainWindow(QtWidgets.QMainWindow, Ui_MainWindow):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(MainWindow, self).__init__(parent)
self.setupUi(self)
self.pushButton.clicked.connect(self.openDialog)
def openDialog(self):
data = self.lineEdit.text()
w = Dialog(data)
w.exec_()
if __name__ == '__main__':
import sys
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
w = MainWindow()
w.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())

self.close and self.hide not working in pyqt5

I am new to python. I am using pyqt5 for GUI development. I have a main Window which should close and new dialog appears after clicking the pushButton. But it doesnot closes and neither show any error and opens the nextDialog. I also want to close nextDialog when OK button is clicked in nextDialog. Please help to check the issue. I am trying to develeop a new project but stuck on this issue. Codes are given below.
Main.py

Hi kind of difficult to understand your code, I am using just Designer to make my GUI,
in anycase I made the first part of the puzzle work for your main.py
line 4 should read class Ui_MainWindow(object):
and to close the first window about lane 25 use MainWindow.close()
added import sys too at the beginning, here the code
main.py:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

this open first window then close it when open buttton is pressed and new window appears, second part of the riddle is gonna take longer I'll try it as soon as I get some spare time
Dialog.py from answer below seems to work dont know why (dont know how main.py works too, but it is kind of more illogic to me the fact that def exit doesnt work).

PyQt5 Got stuck with access to another class function

Got stuck with accessing to outer class functions, it'll be great to receive some advice or solution how can i get access to another class method in Python.

This is my test form, i'd like to call button event from another class, it's easy to call it from inner class function, but it's better to contain multiple functions in another class, thank you for the reply!
The setupUi() function requires an object of type QMainWindow, in your case the optimum would be that Ui_Support should inherit from QMainWindow.
class Ui_Support(QtWidgets.QMainWindow):
def __init__(self):
QtWidgets.QMainWindow.__init__(self, parent=None)
self.ui = Ui_MainWindow()
self.ui.setupUi(self)
self.ui.pushButton.clicked.connect(self.btnCheck)
def btnCheck(self):
self.ui.label.setText("a")
def closeBtn(self):
QtCore.QCoreApplication.instance().quit()
if __name__ == "__main__":
import sys
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
MainWindow = Ui_Support()
MainWindow.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())

how to call another window in pyqt4 python?

how to call another window in pytq4?
For example i have two separate form. I want to show the second form when i click a button in the login form.
EDITED:
for example i have this dialog for my login.
when the user click a button the main.py would appear and this dialog will be close.
LOGIN.py
from PyQt4 import QtCore, QtGui
class Ui_Dialog(object):
def setupUi(self, Dialog):
Dialog.setObjectName("Dialog")
Dialog.resize(379, 184)
self.buttonBox = QtGui.QDialogButtonBox(Dialog)
self.buttonBox.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(20, 130, 341, 32))
self.buttonBox.setOrientation(QtCore.Qt.Horizontal)
self.buttonBox.setStandardButtons(QtGui.QDialogButtonBox.Cancel|QtGui.QDialogButtonBox.Ok)
self.buttonBox.setObjectName("buttonBox")
self.retranslateUi(Dialog)
QtCore.QObject.connect(self.buttonBox, QtCore.SIGNAL("accepted()"), Dialog.accept)
QtCore.QObject.connect(self.buttonBox, QtCore.SIGNAL("rejected()"), Dialog.reject)

I had a similar situation and this is what I've done. Does not feel like the ideal solution but it worked for me.
import Main
self.main = Main.Form(user, loginWindow=self)
self.hide()
self.main.show()
# You can do self.close() here OR
# loginWindow.close() from Main.py
self.close()
Main.py
class Form(QWidget):
def __init__(self, user, parent=None, loginWindow=None):
super(Form, self).__init__(parent)
# etc...
