Demetrius, I think you are right, but how can I achieve the same functionality with Python 3.1.1, as I do with Python 2.6? (i.e., left(5).toUpper()) for the "str" that's returned by Python 3.1.1?
I looked at "[0:0<5]".format(self.ui.txtText.text())" and that seemed to work, although it didn't implement the "toUpper() feature and I really need a solution that will do so. I also have another string from a QLineEdit object that I want to convert to an integer value and I had written it as follows: numbering = self.ui.txtNumber.text().toInt() But this also fails with an error on Python 3.1.1, indicating that a "str" object has on attribute "toInt()". So, basically, I need to convert both of these to be compatible with Python 3.1.1 and I'm not sure how to do so. Any help will be appreciated. -rich- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Demetrius Cassidy" <[email protected]> To: "Richard Parker" <[email protected]> Cc: "PYQT" <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, January 12, 2010 2:49:41 PM GMT -08:00 US/Canada Pacific Subject: Re: [PyQt] Different Behavior between Python 2.6 and Python 3.1.1 I think .text() in Python 3.1 with PyQt4 is returning a python 'str' object, instead of a QString. Try and do type(self.ui.txtText.text()) and see what it returns.
