[PyQt] Bug in QAction?
Hi, I'm trying PyQt-x11-gpl-snapshot-4.8.4-8641ecc135b3 on a debian testing box with Python2.7 and virtualenv-1.5.1. Running the attached script raises the following error: (venv2.7)vmas@rachael:/tmp$ Traceback (most recent call last): File test_qaction.py, line 9, in module shortcut=QtGui.QKeySequence.New) TypeError: keyword arguments are not supported As far as I know the support of keyword arguments has not been dropped so I suppose it is a bug.

[PyQt] signal/slot vs Qt.UniqueConnection ?
Hi,
I'm quite sure I'm missing something fundamental here but I can't get
QObject.connect to work as expected when using Qt.UniqueConnection as a
connection type.
I attached some code that demonstrates my problem. I would expect that
the slot is called only once.
versions:
PyQt4: 4.8.3
Qt: 4.7.0
sip: 4.12.1
python: 2.6.5
thx

[PyQt] Position widgets over widgets
Hi,
I have attached a simple example where a widget sets up two labels. One
which is added to the layout of the widget, and one which is not.
In the paintEvent() of the parent widget I instead position the
non-layout label using setGeometry to make it appear in the center of
the parent widget.
However, the label positioned by this approach is always obscured by the
widget which was added to the layout. I want it to appear as visible,
i.e. visible on top of the parent widget.
Any clues?
Best regards,
Mads

Re: [PyQt] Position widgets over widgets
Hi,
I tried that, but is does not seem to work. The 'XXX' is still hidden by
the widget in the layout.
What I eventually would like to achieve is to add a QPushButton in, say,
the upper left corner of the parent widget.
I have attached a similar example, this time with a QPushButton. This
QPushButton is rendered useless (i.e.) you cannot press it.
I thought solving this problem would be a walk in the park. Any clues?

It seems to work this way: from PyQt4.QtCore import * class A(QObject): signal = pyqtSignal() def __init__(self, parent=None): super(A, self).__init__(parent) def connectNotify(self, signal): print 'connectNotify:', signal @pyqtSlot() def slot(self): print 'slot called' app = QCoreApplication([]) a = A() print 1:, a.signal.connect(a.slot, Qt.UniqueConnection) print 2:, a.signal.connect(a.slot, Qt.UniqueConnection) a.signal.emit() Now, an exception is thrown in the second attempt to connect: Traceback (most recent call last): File uniqueconnection_test.py, line 19, in module print 2:, a.signal.connect(a.slot, Qt.UniqueConnection) TypeError: connect() failed between A.signal[] and slot() Another strange effect is, that in your case with a slot as a function something connects to the destroyed(QObject*) signal, but not in mine.

Re: [PyQt] why do closeEvent and destroyed slot not get called on accepting PyQt4 QDialog?
I truly believe you are approaching this from the wrong angle. If you need to know when your QDialog is going away, you override closeEvent and do your cleanup from there. However, looking through the docs, it does not appear that destroy is actually a signal. It's called from the QWidget dtor, so it makes sense that if you call destroy(), you get the runtime error because you are deleting the C++ object before the Python object. Do not call destroy yourself - call self.close and override closeEvent. From there you can accept or reject closing the dialog, and do any cleanup prior to your dialog being destroyed. From the Qt Docs: void QWidget::destroy ( bool destroyWindow = true, bool destroySubWindows = true ) [protected] Frees up window system resources. Destroys the widget window if destroyWindow is true. destroy() calls itself recursively for all the child widgets, passing destroySubWindows for the destroyWindow parameter. To have more control over destruction of subwidgets, destroy subwidgets selectively first. This function is usually called from the QWidget destructor.

Sorry found destroyed() - that's what happens when you reply to emails before you have morning coffee. Anyway I'm not sure why destroyed() is never fired.

Re: [PyQt] why do closeEvent and destroyed slot not get called on accepting PyQt4 QDialog?
Firstly thanks again for your reply, In the original code, from where this simplification is based, I have cleanup code on both closeEvent and destroyed, but... that's just the problem, the closeEvent isn't getting fired (unless I manually call close) - except when the window is closed from the close box. I was expecting that from the docs for done(), I would not have to on done(), ie. is this a bug? or are the docs incorrect? And separately, destroyed is a signal according to the docs http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/static/Docs/PyQt4/html/qobject.html#destroyed but I cannot get it to fire for QDialog, no matter what I do, including manually calling destroy(). The object appears deleted when inspected with sip.isdeleted, even before the destroy() - so if that is the case, why does it not raise a destroyed signal?

I was expecting that from the docs for done(), I would not have to on done(), ie. is this a bug? or are the docs incorrect? And separately, destroyed is a signal according to the docs http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/static/Docs/PyQt4/html/qobject.ht ml#destroyed but I cannot get it to fire for QDialog, no matter what I do, including manually calling destroy(). The object appears deleted when inspected with sip.isdeleted, even before the destroy() - so if that is the case, why does it not raise a destroyed signal? Well, looks like this is an issue in Heisenbergs uncertainty principle domain ;-) It's simply the GC, that's in the way. If you anchor the connect somewhere else, the destroyed signal gets though. If your real dialog has a parent, you might get away with anchoring the connect there. import sys from PyQt4.QtGui import * from PyQt4.QtCore import * def pr(arg): sys.stdout.write(arg + \n) sys.stdout.flush() class Dialog(QDialog): def __init__(self): QDialog.__init__(self, None, Qt.WindowFlags(Qt.WA_DeleteOnClose)) self.button_box = QDialogButtonBox(self) self.button_box.addButton(self.button_box.Ok) self.button_box.accepted.connect(self.on_accept) layout = QVBoxLayout() layout.addWidget(self.button_box) #self.setAttribute(Qt.WA_DeleteOnClose) self.setLayout(layout) self.destroyed.connect(self.on_destroyed) def on_destroyed(self, *args): pr(destroying dialog) def on_accept(self): pr(accepting) self.done(42) def closeEvent(self, event): pr(close) return QDialog.closeEvent(self, event) app = QApplication([]) widget = Dialog() widget.destroyed.connect(lambda: pr(destroyed)) result = widget.exec_() del widget #my_widget.destroy() print(result: %s % result) From: Demetrius Cassidy dcassid...@gmail.com To: Rui DaCosta ru...@yahoo.com Cc: pyqt@riverbankcomputing.com Sent: Thu, 7 April, 2011 17:02:04 Subject: Re: [PyQt] why do closeEvent and destroyed slot not get called on accepting PyQt4 QDialog? I truly believe you are approaching this from the wrong angle. If you need to know when your QDialog is going away, you override closeEvent and do your cleanup from there. However, looking through the docs, it does not appear that destroy is actually a signal. It's called from the QWidget dtor, so it makes sense that if you call destroy(), you get the runtime error because you are deleting the C++ object before the Python object. Do not call destroy yourself - call self.close and override closeEvent. From there you can accept or reject closing the dialog, and do any cleanup prior to your dialog being destroyed. From the Qt Docs: void QWidget::destroy ( bool destroyWindow = true, bool destroySubWindows = true ) [protected] Frees up window system resources. Destroys the widget window if destroyWindow is true. destroy() calls itself recursively for all the child widgets, passing destroySubWindows for the destroyWindow parameter. To have more control over destruction of subwidgets, destroy subwidgets selectively first. This function is usually called from the QWidget destructor.

The *real* problem we are facing, is a bit further down the line, where we are getting the RuntimeError: underlying C/C++ object has been deleted but we never receive a destroyed signal. The only reason I need this signal or event is to do some teardown code for some callbacks to avoid getting this c++ error elsewhere.

If you want to close, just call self.close. It's a slot, so you can map it to any signal. Also not sure why you want to know when your widget is destroyed? Let Python take care of it, you should not need to call sip.delete yourself. closeEvent is there if you need to know _when_ your app was requested to close. If you want to allow or reject closing the app, you need to use the QEvent object which gets passed to that function.

Vicent, thanks for the reminder, and yes, something is busted here:
from PyQt4 import QtGui
app = QtGui.QApplication([])
act = QtGui.QAction('Save', None, shortcut=QtGui.QKeySequence.Save)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File action.py, line 4, in module
act = QtGui.QAction('Save', None, shortcut=QtGui.QKeySequence.Save)
TypeError: keyword arguments are not supported
On the pride side, the pyqtConfigure() method works still:
from PyQt4 import QtGui
app = QtGui.QApplication([])
act = QtGui.QAction('Save', None)
act.pyqtConfigure(shortcut=QtGui.QKeySequence.Save)
