I've trying to create a custom widget and make it appear on Grid Layout on the main window.
class MyCustomWidget(QtGui.QWidget):
def __init__(self):
super(MyCustomWidget, self).__init__()
self.setupUi()
def setupUi(self):
self.testText = QtGui.QLabel()
font = QtGui.QFont()
font.setPointSize(8)
font.setBold(True)
font.setWeight(75)
self.testText.setFont(font)
self.testText.setAlignment(QtCore.Qt.AlignCenter)
self.testText.setObjectName(_fromUtf8("patientText"))
self.testText.setText("Test")
class UIMainWindow(object):
def setupUi(self, MainWindow):
...
self.gridLayout = QtGui.QGridLayout()
self.gridLayout.setObjectName(_fromUtf8("gridLayout"))
...
self.test = MyCustomWidget()
self.gridLayout.addWidget(self.test)
When I run this code, main window appears but there is nothing about the widget that I created. If I simply add an QLabel to grid layout, it appears.
As is, your MyCustomWidget is simply a standard widget with an attribute testText containing a QLabel. If you want it to contain subwidgets that will show on your main window, you need to instantiate a layout, add the sub widgets to the layout, then add the layout to MyCustomWidget:
At the end of MyCustomWidget's setupUi
self.gridLayout = QtGui.QGridLayout()
self.gridLayout.setObjectName(_fromUtf8("MyCustomWidgetLayout"))
self.gridLayout.addWidget(self.testText)
#add all other widgets here
self.setLayout(self.gridLayout)
You can also create embedded layouts, by calling addLayout method on the parent layout and passing it the child layout !
