AddWidget - Type error

[Achab61]

I'm trying to add a Widget to a vertical box (named 'qvb_grafico' based on Vertical layout) creted with QT Designer. In the line "self.window.qvb_grafico.addWidget(self.canvas)" I'm getting the error: Type error: argument 1 has unexpected type 'FigureCanvasAgg'

Any suggestion is welcome

Here below the piece of code:

from PyQt5 import uic
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from matplotlib.backends.backend_qt5agg import FigureCanvasAgg as FigureCanvas
from numpy import *

class Grafico:

code_text
```numeroPunti = 200                                  
    def __init__(self, window):    
        self.window=window                                                                                    
        self.figura=plt.figure()                       
        self.ax=self.figura.add_subplot(111)            
        self.canvas=FigureCanvas(self.figura)          
        self.window.qvb_grafico.addWidget(self.canvas)  
        self.statoGriglia=False
....

@Achab61 said in AddWidget - Type error:

    self.canvas=FigureCanvas(self.figura)          
    self.window.qvb_grafico.addWidget(self.canvas) 

addWidget() presumably requires a QWidget. Is FigureCanvas/FigureCanvasAgg a QWidget?

I found the problem. I replaced FigureCanvasAgg with FigureCanvasQTAgg in the import statement and it works.

Thanks for your help
