@MomoAlex Can you please explain what exactly you're asking?
"ow can I connect Qcombobox with Qlineedit" - what do you mean with "connect" here?

MomoAlex · 8 Jul 2019, 10:30

@jsulm I have a xml-file with different material types and their properties like density. I have imported the data from the file and put the material types in combobox_wall1 and I would like to have the density in lineedit_18 when I choose any kind of material types from the drop down box. I did the connection between combobox_wall1 and lineedit_18 as showen in the code but and when I choose any material type it comes just the last number for density for the last material type. If you like I can send you the xml file to understand that more and I'm sorry if you didn't understand me I still beginner with programming

@MomoAlex Why don't you simply connect https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qcombobox.html#activated-1 signal to https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qlineedit.html#text-prop slot?

MomoAlex · 8 Jul 2019, 11:07

@jsulm I tried it and became the same issue

                self.comboBox_Wall1.activated['QString'].connect(self.changeText)

@MomoAlex In the code you posted I don't see where you're using selected entry from combo box to find the correct density.

MomoAlex · 8 Jul 2019, 11:41

@jsulm

def changeText(self):

base_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))
xml_file = os.path.join(base_path, "Data\\MaterialTemplates_v4.xml")
tree = et.parse(xml_file)
root = tree.getroot()

for child in root:

    if (child.tag.split("}")[1]) == "Material":

        for children in child:
            if (children.tag.split("}")[1]) == "density":
                d = children.text
        self.lineEdit_18.setText(d)

                n = children.text
                print(n)
 
                self.comboBox_Wall1.addItem(n)
       

                self.comboBox_Wall1.activated['QString'].connect(self.changeText)

jsulm · 8 Jul 2019, 11:53

@MomoAlex said in How can I connect Qcombobox with Qlineedit to import data from xml file ?:

self.comboBox_Wall1.activated['QString'].connect(self.changeText)

Why do you execute this in a loop? You only need to connect once.
And I still don't see where you use the selected text (from combo box) to find the correct density?
You get that text as parameter from activated signal, so change your slot to

def changeText(self, selectedText):

and use selectedText to find the dencity which belongs to it.

Well, iterate over all Material elements and search for the one containing the given name. If you find one then take the dencity.

MomoAlex · wrote on 8 Jul 2019, 13:13

@jsulm could you give me example for it? I'm trying to solve it since 3 weeks but I still clueless

Denni · 7 Aug 2019, 13:47

working on a fix for you @MomoAlex but one of your issues is that you are using the Designer to produce your code and the spews out some of the ugliest code I have ever seen -- I always strongly suggest that folks stop using it and learn to create that GUI from scratch it actually does not take that much longer and what you have when you are done is extremely easier to work with AND more importantly you have a better understanding of how to manipulate it to get it to do the things you want it to.

MomoAlex · wrote on 8 Jul 2019, 13:52

@Denni Thank you very much for your advice. I thought on the beginning that would be easier to use Qt Designer but at the end I lost a lot of time and as I said I still beginner and started with python for 2 months.

Denni · 8 Jul 2019, 15:01

Okay using your program you have posted and using the data you have posted I get an error when it tries to parse your data can you please clean these up to make sure they are fully functional -- that will speed things up greatly

thank you for your effort

MomoAlex · D Denni 8 Jul 2019, 14:36

@Denni Do you have something new?

Denni · 7 Oct 2019, 12:49

Should have something soon-ish -- keep in mind this is a side gig for me not my main one ;) However I do have most of it rewritten just need to get the final pieces in place and make sure all the items are connected

Denni · 7 Oct 2019, 19:54

Okay I have restructured your program throwing out all that unnecessary garbage that the designer barfs up and replaced it with a much more streamlined pythonic classified flow -- I have also included explanation text where I thought might be helpful -- I have done this to help teach you how to fish rather than just giving you the fish -- there are elements to this that could be expanded upon and/or altered depending on your needs but this should give you a solid ground floor to work from as well as a template to do other things with -- again do yourself a major favor and stop using that Designer the code it gurgitates looks just like programming vomit and is very difficult to work with and doing it without the designer is actually just as easy or easier.

P.S. Please let me know if this has helped anyone -- I do not need kudos but knowing that it actually helped someone is encouraging

@Denni
that is really amazing and that helped me a lot. Thank you very much for making it easier for me and I would like to stay with you in contact if you don't mind.
How could I improve my skills in Qt?
