I want to create a code which will display a window with a button, which clicked will create another window with some fields (like QLabel, QLineEdit, QSpinBox, etc.). However, I don't know how to create that popup window...
Here is my code:
#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import sys # Needed for PySide
from PySide.QtCore import *
from PySide.QtGui import *
class Form(QDialog):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(Form, self).__init__(parent)
# Create widgets
self.label1 = QLabel("Label1")
self.button_open = QPushButton("Open popup")
self.button = QPushButton("Go!")
self.qbtn = QPushButton('Quit')
# Create layout and add widgets
layout = QVBoxLayout()
layout.addWidget(self.label1)
layout.addWidget(self.button_open)
# Buttons layout
hbox_buttons = QHBoxLayout()
hbox_buttons.addStretch(1)
hbox_buttons.addWidget(self.button)
hbox_buttons.addWidget(self.qbtn)
# Main layout
layout.addStretch(1)
layout.addWidget(self.button_open)
layout.addLayout(hbox_buttons)
self.setLayout(layout)
# Add buttons slots
self.button_open.clicked.connect(self.popup)
self.button.clicked.connect(self.function_runner)
self.qbtn.clicked.connect(QCoreApplication.instance().quit)
def popup (self, parent=__init__):
new_win = # I wonder what should be here
if __name__ == '__main__':
# Create the Qt Application
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
# Create and show the form
form = Form()
form.show()
# Run the main Qt loop
sys.exit(app.exec_())
I don't know if this is the best way, but the one I could figure out over the night... I hope it will help someone who got stuck with a similar problem.
So, I (simply) created a separate code for that second window and called it with
from subprocess import call
call("./my_2nd_window_code.py")
