Qt for Python

@friedemannkleint Yes! Thank you! That allowed me to see that it was the "text/uri-list" data it was inserting. I ended up re-defining the Drop function for the QLineEdit class and that seemed to have done the trick! class FileDropLineEdit(QLineEdit): def __init__(self, parent=None): super().__init__(parent) def dropEvent(self, event): if event.mimeData().hasUrls(): file_path = event.mimeData().urls()[0].toLocalFile() file_path = file_path.replace("/", "\\") self.setText(file_path) event.acceptProposedAction() else: event.ignore() Since it's now its own class, I also removed the reference to the Drop event in my event filter and referenced it when creating the initial window.

The bug disappeared after qt upgrade to the version 5.15.9

@friedemannkleint I tried all that, I tried different versions of virtual environments. Finally I switched over to PyQt6 and now it works flawlessly.

@JonB Oh now I got it! Thank you! Successfully and finally I got it fixed. Thanks again, you are just so kind!!

Thanks for your help.

@kaushikv Why will I use that when QML already has a treeview and the model isn't the problem? Plus I tagged thi question as Qt for Python.

Thank you, it didn't occur to me

Hi and welcome to devnet, You should test the conda version of PyQt5. Otherwise, I would recommend that you contest the authors of PyQt to see if they are aware of that issue.

Hi, Since Qt 5.15.2 contains only x86_64, one thing you can do is start a shell with the arch command so that it runs in x86_64 mode and from there follow the build instructions.

@J-Hilk Thanks for your reply, it works right now when. I had the wrong function x). Thanks for both your help and time! Have a good day Kind Regards, Bart van Wijk

Hi @Qt_Python-Learner, I know this issue is quite old, but it might still help somebody. I managed to limit the number of visible items in a Fusion style dashboard using this class: class ComboBox(QtWidgets.QComboBox): """ Modify default class of PyQT5 combobox. """ def __init__(self, parent=None): super(ComboBox, self).__init__(parent) # setMaxVisibleItems only works if the box is editable # this creates a line edit that we need to overwrite self.setEditable(True) self.setMaxVisibleItems(15) # overwrite default line edit by an invisible one self.lineEdit().setFrame(False) self.lineEdit().setReadOnly(True) def showPopup(self): """ Show pop-up. """ # set index of selected choice to highlight it text = self.lineEdit().text() index = self.findText(text, QtCore.Qt.MatchFixedString) self.setCurrentIndex(index) # show pop-up super().showPopup() # add vertical scroll bar self.view().setVerticalScrollBarPolicy(QtCore.Qt.ScrollBarAsNeeded) # increase the width of the elements on popup so they can be read self.view().setMinimumWidth(self.view().sizeHintForColumn(0)) I hope this can help you or others. Cheers, Alba

@go4tli Indeed, it was very well spotted by @SGaist, I don't think I would have noticed it! Python could do with an override keyword to catch this, which it lacks. If you are interested for the future In Python, how do I indicate I'm overriding a method? or https://pypi.org/project/overrides/ suggest some code snippets which would catch such a mistake....

Sorry for the very late reply, I tested PySide6 version 6..4.3 (installed using pip in a dedicated environment) on KDE Neon (which is based on Ubuntu 22.04 at this time) and orca 42.0-1ubuntu2 and it worked with the following test script: import sys from PySide6.QtCore import Qt from PySide6.QtWidgets import QApplication from PySide6.QtWidgets import QHBoxLayout from PySide6.QtWidgets import QLabel from PySide6.QtWidgets import QPushButton from PySide6.QtWidgets import QWidget if __name__ == "__main__": app = QApplication(sys.argv) widget = QWidget() widget.setAccessibleDescription("This is a test") label = QLabel("Test") label.setTextInteractionFlags(Qt.TextSelectableByMouse|Qt.TextSelectableByKeyboard) button = QPushButton("Test button") button.setAccessibleDescription("This is a button") button2 = QPushButton("Test button 2") button2.setAccessibleDescription("This is a second button") button2.clicked.connect(lambda: label.setText("New text")) layout = QHBoxLayout(widget) layout.addWidget(label) layout.addWidget(button) layout.addWidget(button2) widget.show() sys.exit(app.exec()) Note that I started orca on the command line and the script from another one. Note that something seems of with the QLabel. It seems not listed along the buttons however if you click on it then orca will say its content.

@superaga It makes sense. A linear gradient needs only 2 points. Good you fixed the issue.

@JonB I changed that, by creating an empty QFrame in the mainwindow.ui, so I don't have 2 QOpenGLWidget.
