Set Position for Label inside QTab not Working
-
Hi All,
I am new to pyqt and programming. after referring tutorials and videos, I am using pyqt5 in ubuntu for QT APP Development. My app has 2 tabs and i have to use labels and push buttons. i am able to add button and labels. But for setting the position of label i am using "self.l1.move(10, 50)" after the line"self.l1 = QLabel("NAME")". the label is displayed at its default left and vertical orientation position. the label. move is not working. the same move instruction is working for push button. please help me to find the issue behind and solve the problem. here is the code.

You would not normally use any absolute positioning coordinates for widgets. It's not a good idea. Rather you would use Qt'sQLayouts, as just about all widgets examples will do. have you started by reading https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/layout.html ?
