Loading a simple Qt Designer form in to Pyside
I create a simple form in Qt designer and am trying to load it in to a Qt application I'm creating with PySide but without much luck.
Here's the generated code from `pyside-uic':
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# Form implementation generated from reading ui file 'clientEditorForm.ui'

# Created: Tue Nov 3 23:46:41 2009

Then my simple application:
import sys
from PySide import QtCore, QtGui
from clientEditorForm import Ui_clientEditorForm
class MyMainWindow(QtGui.QMainWindow):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(MyMainWindow, self).__init__(parent)
self.ui = Ui_clientEditorForm()
self.ui.setupUi(self)
if __name__ == "__main__":
app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
myapp = MyMainWindow()
myapp.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
However, when I try to run it, I get the following:
QLayout: Attempting to add QLayout "" to QMainWindow "clientEditorForm", which already has a layout
and a segmentation fault. I'm following the basic instructions in this tutorial but I can't tell what I'm doing wrong.
Answer
Turns out there is a bug in PySide with the QSpacerItem class. Commenting out the QSpacerItem instances in the code above makes it work just fine. There's a bug report on the PySide bugzilla.
