PyQt5: Text seems to overlap

[zeankundev]

Hi, I wanted to make the QLabel on the bottom of a QLabel, somehow ended up having this.

main snippet:

def main():
    app = QtWidgets.QApplication([])
    window = QtWidgets.QWidget()
    window.setWindowTitle("kabantu")
    label = QtWidgets.QLabel(window)
    pixel = QtGui.QPixmap.fromImage(QtGui.QImage("kabantu.png"))
    label.setPixmap(pixel)
    label.setFixedSize(380, 136)
    label.setScaledContents(True)
    titleLabel = QtWidgets.QLabel(window)
    titleLabel.setText("kabantu 26.04 lts installer")
    titleLabel.setStyleSheet("font-size: 20px;")
    titleLabel.setAlignment(QtCore.Qt.AlignCenter)
    font = titleLabel.font()
    font.setBold(True)
    layout = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout()
    layout.setAlignment(QtCore.Qt.AlignCenter)
    layout.addWidget(label)
    layout.addWidget(titleLabel)
    window.setWindowIcon(QtGui.QIcon("./kabantu.png"))  
    window.setFixedSize(400, 200)
    window.show()
    app.exec_()

You add your widgets to a layout, but you don't seem to put the layout anywhere on the window?

@JonB Like how the py code should go?

One of:

window.setLayout(layout)

or when constructing the layout:

layout = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout(window)

On a quite separate matter: in two places you use "kabantu.png" and "./kabantu.png". Be careful: these are relative paths, your code relies on the current working directory being somewhere (same place as where your .py file is?) for these to work. I do not know that Python guarantees to set the working directory to where the script is when running it, I do not think it does. Consider using an absolute path, e.g. one constructed from determining where the .py file is at runtime?
