Hi Robert,
the mentioned Qt Tools are not part of the eric-ide nor PyQt6 package.
You have to install them separately for your platform. Debian provides
packages for these, which you can install via the package manager. For
Windows platforms you have to install the Qt6 software.

Hello,
I recently installed eric on Windows and Linux (details below) using
the venv and pip procedures on the Installation page of the web site.
The application seems to work well in both environments except when
working on a PyQt6 GUI app. In that case, Qt Tools do not seem to be
available.
For example, when following the MiniBrowser tutorial, Qt Designer does
not appear after the MainWindow file is created. "Open in Qt-Designer"
is greyed out in the context menu. (This is also the case in any new
PyQt6 GUI project.)
Settings, Show External Tools displays:
PyPl Package Management
C:\Users\David\eric_env\Scripts\python.exe -m pip 26.1.1
Qt Assistant (not found)
Qt Designer (not found)
Qt Help Tools (not found)
Qt Linguist (not found)
Perhaps it is a path problem? I have tried various folders in
Settings, Preferences, Qt, Qt Tools, Tools Directory, but without
success. Any help you could provide would be appreciated,
Robert
eric installed in:
Window 11 Home (25H2), Python 3.14.4, pip 26.1.1
Debian 13 (Trixie), Python 3.13.5, pip 25.1.1
