Load Qt Designer UI File
-
I would like to load a .csv into a table, but wanting to use Qt Designer UI file (such as uic.loadUi) so design will be more dynamic.
If anyone could help me find a tutorial or example that does this, I would appreciate it.

Hi and welcome.I don't understand. Qt Designer designs, and produces a
.uifile.loadUi()loads a.uifile at runtime. Meanwhile, a.csvfile holds some data, which presumably you want to read and use as the data in a table, at some point.What are you actually wanting to do/asking for, and when? And what does "so design will be more dynamic" mean?

@JonB Thank you for replying.
I found tutorials using pyuic5 to convert the .ui to .py then enter the csv data into a table. I have also found tutorials the does not convert the ui but imports it at the time of compile. I’m looking for a tutorial or example that displays csv data into a table but uses the second form of ui import. I haven’t had luck combining what I learned from each and google isn’t helping. Thank you.

@DjGrego
perhaps misuse of term "ui file "?QtDesigner creates "widgets" - an graphical objects to act as GUI - graphical user interface.
Yes, they are files of specific purpose - GUI .Start with Qt examples.
Most Qt samples /examples have very basic "main window application" implementing the event "loop" and main window / form.
Remove example specific object(s) and you have basic Qt application.Of course you can start "from scratch" and use QtCreator to build "main window" too.
Either way - use QtDesigner to add GUI "list" (ui file) to your main window / form.
Then add your csv data as "item(s)" to your list.

This I recognise.

This I do not recognise.
Please give us some links for the tutorials you found which implement what you are looking to do.
