Hey what is your favorite gui designer in python. What i mean is which one do tou likek the most pyqt, tkinter, or kivy?

hello, the Qwidget that the class inherits would be like passing root or the main window in tkinter, right? and the other question: if you want a button to open a window as a topLevel in tkinter, should you call a method of the same class or instantiate another class?

Great video. You should continue on with more PyQt5 gui videos. I'd like to see you cover the tables eventually

Wow 🤩

I don't know if that was already in the plans, but could you do a video on doing a "next" button, to take the user to another window? I tried doing that and failed miserably, thank you!

Hi, how can we do a relative combox? thanks

hey sir, please help me how to resize widgets to fit screen while resizing the window in Pyqt5 Please

👌👌👌👌👌

keep this series going, thank you so much

when using the addItems method, is there a way to add both text and data?

Cant even make a hero joke on this.
You are both the hero we needed and wanted!

Great videos. Thank you. 😊

But John, how to set placeholder text, means unselectable text??

weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

What python idle u are using

How can we add padding to the drop-down items?

why r u using classes for PyQt5
instead we can write snippets with out classes and objects ??

Why I can't insert things at the top ??
Code:

import PyQt5.QtWidgets as qtw
import PyQt5.QtGui as qtg

class MainWindow(qtw.QWidget):

def __init__(self):

super().__init__()

self.setWindowTitle("Hello world !!!")

# Create Vertical Layout

self.setLayout(qtw.QVBoxLayout())

# Create a Label

my_label = qtw.QLabel("Pick something from the list below !")

my_label.setFont(qtg.QFont("Helvetica" , 24))

self.layout().addWidget(my_label)

# create a combo box

my_combo_box = qtw.QComboBox(self , editable = True ,
insertPolicy = qtw.QComboBox.InsertAtTop)

my_combo_box.addItem("Pepperoni")
my_combo_box.addItem("Cheese")
my_combo_box.addItem("Pizza")
my_combo_box.addItem("Cookie")

self.layout().addWidget(my_combo_box)

# Create a Button

my_button = qtw.QPushButton("Enter" , clicked = lambda: Button_Press())

self.layout().addWidget(my_button)

# Show the App

self.show()

def Button_Press():

my_label.setText(f"You Picked {my_combo_box.currentText()} !")


app = qtw.QApplication([])

mw = MainWindow()

# Run the App
app.exec_()

Hi, anyone body why when you create any widget you don't reference self like "self.my_label" or "self.my_combo"?

Can you add a dictionary with addItems to also import data?

I should always pick John Elder.

how to insert text after selecting a combox item

👍Very good tutorial, I wrote the full script as John did it, but running the script without the related lines for ‘my_entry’, the script just shows a white screen😵…So, in my case the script works if I don’t delete the lines for ‘my_entry’ with a small modification in the line of the >self.layout< replacing the assignation of ‘my_entry’ with ‘my_combo’🤪

Thanks Alot Dear
