    QFontDialog function `getFont() documentation describes prototype:

    static PySide6.QtWidgets.QFontDialog.getFont([parent=None])

    with return type PyTuple which is not explained and incorrect in the example:

    Example:

    ok = bool()
    font = QFontDialog.getFont(ok, self)
    

    Reverse engineered code works:

    ok, font = QFontDialog.getFont()
    if ok:
        self.label.setFont(font)
    

    QInputDialog.getText() documentation describes return type str instead of PyTyple:

    text, ok = QInputDialog.getText(self, 'Input Dialog', 'Enter your name:')
    

    Notice the inconsistency of ok, font and text, ok.

    Am I correct that the documentation needs to be fully reviewed and updated? I could not find a QFontDialog example.

      Hi,

      The documentation is, at least partially, generated out of the C++ version which triggers that kind of issue. You should check the bug report system and open an issue there if none already exists about this.
