So I how do I show this in the main window. What is the overall code?

@sdf1444
something like
(import it )

layout = QHBoxLayout()
layout.addWidget(App2)
yourwindow.setLayout(layout)
yourwindow.show()

Hi

I am getting this error when I add the layout code into pyqt.py: TypeError: addWidget(self, QWidget, stretch: int = 0, alignment: Union[Qt.Alignment, Qt.AlignmentFlag] = Qt.Alignment()): argument 1 has unexpected type 'sip.wrappertype'

import sys
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *
from PyQt5.QtCore import *
from pyqt2 import *

class App(QWidget):
def init(self):
QMainWindow.init(self)

    layout = QHBoxLayout()
    layout.addWidget(App2)
    yourwindow.setLayout(layout)
    yourwindow.show()

    pybutton = QPushButton('Click me', self)
    pybutton.resize(200,70)
    pybutton.move(400, 50)
    self.show()

if name == "main":
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
mainWin = App()
sys.exit(app.exec_())

Hi
So
app2 is NOT a QWidget ?
i have no idea what "sip.wrappertype" is :)

@mrjj

"app2" is a widget created from inside class.

[mrjj]

@sdf1444
it has to inherit QWidget or be a QWidget to be used in a layout.
Else its plain impossible and you must create the inner Widgets yourself. :)

@mrjj

Hi "app2" is a QWidget.

[sdf1444]

@mrjj

Because it is a QWidget it should be able to be shown but why do I get an error and is there another way to write this code because of an error.

[mrjj]

@sdf1444
make sure it's not because it miss a self in the right spot.

[sdf1444]

@mrjj

Where do I need a self?

[mrjj]

@sdf1444
It was just a suggestion.
I dont know if that is the case.

@sdf1444 said in How to show all UI from another python file in current file when button is clicked.:

class App(QWidget):
def init(self):
QMainWindow.init(self)

Why are you declaring App to be a QWidget and then in the constructor try to do some initialisation based on QMainWindow ?

Note that App is not a really good name for a widget. Most people would think of a QCore/QGui/QApplication based class.
