Understanding the doc format

[GaryN]

I am now trying to code my interface directly. This has progressed well so far, with sufficient tabs, a group box, labels, etc.
I want to align the labels right.

I went to the doc.qt.io and was told that:

Qt::AlignRight

I have already imported Qt from PyQt6.QtCore.

I tried this:

newgridcell = QLabel("Point of new grid cell:")
newgridcell.setAlignment(Qt.AlignRight | Qt.AlignVCenter)

I get AttributeError: type object 'Qt' has no attribute 'AlignRight'

If I remove Qt then, obvious, AlignRight is not defined
If I just follow the document with Qt::AlignRight I, obviously, get SyntaxError: invalid syntax

So, I am trying to...

• resolve the immediate issue of aligning right
• more importantly, trying to understand the structure of the documentation - for future usage

Please help. :)

I do not have Qt6/PyQt6/PySide6. Qt.AlightRight used to be correct. But I believe at Qt6 all these "global" constants/enumerations in Qt got moved into a more "specific" class/namespace. Try: Qt.AlignmentFlag.Align...?

Thank you so much. That also allowed me to begin to comprehend the structure of the documentation!

Perfect. Not only do I have a solution but I have understanding. :)

@GaryN
Be aware as you progress that this "move globals/enumerates into specific class/namespace" has basically happened everywhere in Qt6/PyQt6. Old code/examples are going to be wrong for loads of these, not just the alignment flag ones...!
