Ok, I understand your position better now. There is people using Spyder
as a normal IDE to do all kinds of thing. I thought you were one of them :)
Enthought developed a library to create fancy "scientific" GUIs, i.e.
with plots which can be connected to input data and so on. It's called
TraitsUI. I never used it but perhaps it may serve you better.
Cheers,

Thanks, yes that is how I came across Spyder, somewhere in a numpy or
scipy discussion. However, as a lazy scientist I like to find my input
data with gui and alter/fine-tune parameters alter options etc. with
spin-, list- and check-boxes. The convenience of having the inputs and
the outputs in a grid and a mathplot figure together in an organised
window adds to that. That's where Qt4/PyQt4 comes in. Not having to
bother about the inner workings of the sender-signal-slot system would
leave more time for numerical math or for just being idle. Possibly I
should invest some more time in reading QtDesigner and PyQt4
documentation, understanding something can save a lot of time too :-).

Hi Janwillem,
As you probably know, Spyder is more oriented to do scientific
computations than GUI programming. That doesn't mean your request is
valid, quite the contrary, it'd be quite handy to have in Spyder. It
means someone have to stand up and implement it.
The other way around is that Eric devs adopt our code to fill their
needs, since it's MIT/BSD licensed (unfortunately we can't do the
same because theirs is GPLed). For example, I developed a little
library to do import completions here:

I have been using Eric5 for some while. I like it in particular
because of the simple way it offers for generating python code for the
PyQt4 slots and signals. It relieves one from the need to realy
understand slots, signals, events et cetra. However, I never could get
code completion to work properly. If I e.g. type sys. then I only get
the sys methods already used in my own source. In Spyder on the other
hand you get all sys methods listed which is for somebody with a
memory like mine very convenient. In Spyder you can start QT4Designer
but after that it stops; I cannot find more PyQt4 integration in
Spyder. So for now it seems Eric5 for the PyQt4 part and Spyder for
all other source editing. There must be a better solution. Any
suggestions welcome.

P.S. My backgound: 15 years Delphi-1 through 7 and since a few years
Python (on linux) mainly command line + matplotlib.
Placed on both Eric and Spyder lists
