The __file__.split(".py")[0] + ".ui")[0]) is what threw me on my
misunderstanding on using pysideuic. Your loadUiType(__file__.split(".py")[0]
+ ".ui")[0] is basically my Template, and I think your QtWidgets.QWidget is
my BaseClass
I was trying to follow the examples on loadUiType() that returns a form
and base class and trying also to use pyqtgraph's Qt.py to handle
supporting PyQt5 and PySide2. My MainWIndow gets created fine following the
designerExample.py
<https://github.com/pyqtgraph/pyqtgraph/blob/master/examples/designerExample.py>
:
with importlib.resources.path('nvfieldcap.resources.ui', 'NVFieldCap.ui')
as uiFile:
WindowTemplate, TemplateBaseClass = pg.Qt.loadUiType(uiFile.as_posix())
class MainWindow(TemplateBaseClass):
def __init__(self, config=None):
TemplateBaseClass.__init__(self)
# Create the main window
self.ui = WindowTemplate()
self.ui.setupUi(self)
(uiFileName = 'FileNamingWidget.ui' )
uiFileName = self.get_uiFileName(config)
with importlib.resources.path('nvfieldcap.resources.ui', uiFileName) as
uifilename:
if 'PySide2' in sys.modules:
Template, BaseClass = pg.Qt.loadUiType(uifilename.as_posix())
Template and BaseClass are both classes
Template,BaseClass
(<class 'Ui_Filename_Folder_Widget'>, <class
'PySide2.QtWidgets.QTabWidget'>)
Looking at your code again though, I think I should be doing something like
Template, BaseClass = QtWidgets.QTabWidget.loadUiType(uifilename.as_posix())
My "FileNamingWidget.ui" file starts with:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ui version="4.0">
<class>Filename_Folder_Widget</class>
<widget class="QTabWidget" name="Filename_Folder_Widget">
*Ok, so QTabWidget doesn't have a loadUiType(). Scratch that.* I'm reading
this uifile inside my MainWIndow.__init__ , so I don't know what my class
is yet. (Well, I guess I do know it's a QTabWidget.)
And no, I don't use the command line uic/pysideuic tools to generate python

I'll look over this more and see if I can follow your pattern. Thanks.
