    Can you show the structure of your application ?
    It seems there might be some issue with that.

    If you are using sub folders, did you think about adding the __init__.py file in it ?

    @SGaist I’m sorry for the latency in answering you but I was trying to solve the problem on my own. Unfortunately I didn’t succeed because even today the terminal said that it can’t find subfolders that are in the main one. In its opinion they don’t exist. “Adding the __init.py__file”: what does it mean?

      Literally that: adding a file named __init__.py in the folder. However it might not be needed anymore with Python 3.

        @SGaist the problem persist, it said that there isn’t any module name “Model”, but Model is a folder. Inside it there is the Standard_Item file that i want to import:

        From Model.standard_item import StandardItem
        ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘Model’
        

        Do you think it could be a venv problem?

          Shouldn't that be:

          from .Model.standard_item import StandardItem
          

          ?

          Notice the starting ..

            from .Model.standard_item import StandardItem
            ImportError: attempted relative import with no known parent package

              Would it be possible for you to provide a minimal project that shows that issue so we can debug that from the same source ?

                @SGaist of course! What part of the code would be more useful for you? I could paste it here

                  @SGaist here I am. I solved the problem by adding a line of code at the beginning of the main file:

                  sys.path.append(r’/Users/[user]/Desktop/[folder name]’)
                  

                  It identifies the path to the folder that contains the other subfolders. Thanks for your time!

                    When using that technique you should rather determine the location of the current script using __file__ so that you don't hard code the path in it.

                        See https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/file-a-special-variable-in-python/ for __file__. Use that if you need the path to the Python script file/directory rather than hard-coding it.
