Displaying a more intricate SVG as QWidget backround in Pyside2
Unsolved
General and Desktop
-
I've been displaying simple SVGs as QWidget backgrounds using this method of sublclassing QWidget and overloading paintEvent(). However, today I tried to display a more intricate SVG(with a gradient) using this method and it fails to properly display the SVG.
Here's the simple example I've created with
contents
containing the XML representing the SVG I'm having trouble displaying(based on the SO answer):from PySide2 import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets class Ui_Form(object): def setupUi(self, Form): Form.setObjectName("Form") Form.resize(400, 300) self.horizontalLayout_2 = QtWidgets.QHBoxLayout(Form) self.horizontalLayout_2.setObjectName("horizontalLayout_2") self.horizontalLayout = QtWidgets.QHBoxLayout() self.horizontalLayout.setObjectName("horizontalLayout") self.horizontalLayout_2.addLayout(self.horizontalLayout) self.retranslateUi(Form) contents = b"<svg xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' width='100%'><defs><linearGradient id='a' gradientUnits='userSpaceOnUse' x1='0' x2='0' y1='0' y2='100%' gradientTransform='rotate(240)'><stop offset='0' stop-color='#0064a4'/><stop offset='1' stop-color='#ffd200'/></linearGradient><pattern patternUnits='userSpaceOnUse' id='b' width='540' height='450' x='0' y='0' viewBox='0 0 1080 900'><g fill-opacity='0.1'><polygon fill='#444' points='90 150 0 300 180 300'/><polygon points='90 150 180 0 0 0'/><polygon fill='#AAA' points='270 150 360 0 180 0'/><polygon fill='#DDD' points='450 150 360 300 540 300'/><polygon fill='#999' points='450 150 540 0 360 0'/><polygon points='630 150 540 300 720 300'/><polygon fill='#DDD' points='630 150 720 0 540 0'/><polygon fill='#444' points='810 150 720 300 900 300'/><polygon fill='#FFF' points='810 150 900 0 720 0'/><polygon fill='#DDD' points='990 150 900 300 1080 300'/><polygon fill='#444' points='990 150 1080 0 900 0'/><polygon fill='#DDD' points='90 450 0 600 180 600'/><polygon points='90 450 180 300 0 300'/><polygon fill='#666' points='270 450 180 600 360 600'/><polygon fill='#AAA' points='270 450 360 300 180 300'/><polygon fill='#DDD' points='450 450 360 600 540 600'/><polygon fill='#999' points='450 450 540 300 360 300'/><polygon fill='#999' points='630 450 540 600 720 600'/><polygon fill='#FFF' points='630 450 720 300 540 300'/><polygon points='810 450 720 600 900 600'/><polygon fill='#DDD' points='810 450 900 300 720 300'/><polygon fill='#AAA' points='990 450 900 600 1080 600'/><polygon fill='#444' points='990 450 1080 300 900 300'/><polygon fill='#222' points='90 750 0 900 180 900'/><polygon points='270 750 180 900 360 900'/><polygon fill='#DDD' points='270 750 360 600 180 600'/><polygon points='450 750 540 600 360 600'/><polygon points='630 750 540 900 720 900'/><polygon fill='#444' points='630 750 720 600 540 600'/><polygon fill='#AAA' points='810 750 720 900 900 900'/><polygon fill='#666' points='810 750 900 600 720 600'/><polygon fill='#999' points='990 750 900 900 1080 900'/><polygon fill='#999' points='180 0 90 150 270 150'/><polygon fill='#444' points='360 0 270 150 450 150'/><polygon fill='#FFF' points='540 0 450 150 630 150'/><polygon points='900 0 810 150 990 150'/><polygon fill='#222' points='0 300 -90 450 90 450'/><polygon fill='#FFF' points='0 300 90 150 -90 150'/><polygon fill='#FFF' points='180 300 90 450 270 450'/><polygon fill='#666' points='180 300 270 150 90 150'/><polygon fill='#222' points='360 300 270 450 450 450'/><polygon fill='#FFF' points='360 300 450 150 270 150'/><polygon fill='#444' points='540 300 450 450 630 450'/><polygon fill='#222' points='540 300 630 150 450 150'/><polygon fill='#AAA' points='720 300 630 450 810 450'/><polygon fill='#666' points='720 300 810 150 630 150'/><polygon fill='#FFF' points='900 300 810 450 990 450'/><polygon fill='#999' points='900 300 990 150 810 150'/><polygon points='0 600 -90 750 90 750'/><polygon fill='#666' points='0 600 90 450 -90 450'/><polygon fill='#AAA' points='180 600 90 750 270 750'/><polygon fill='#444' points='180 600 270 450 90 450'/><polygon fill='#444' points='360 600 270 750 450 750'/><polygon fill='#999' points='360 600 450 450 270 450'/><polygon fill='#666' points='540 600 630 450 450 450'/><polygon fill='#222' points='720 600 630 750 810 750'/><polygon fill='#FFF' points='900 600 810 750 990 750'/><polygon fill='#222' points='900 600 990 450 810 450'/><polygon fill='#DDD' points='0 900 90 750 -90 750'/><polygon fill='#444' points='180 900 270 750 90 750'/><polygon fill='#FFF' points='360 900 450 750 270 750'/><polygon fill='#AAA' points='540 900 630 750 450 750'/><polygon fill='#FFF' points='720 900 810 750 630 750'/><polygon fill='#222' points='900 900 990 750 810 750'/><polygon fill='#222' points='1080 300 990 450 1170 450'/><polygon fill='#FFF' points='1080 300 1170 150 990 150'/><polygon points='1080 600 990 750 1170 750'/><polygon fill='#666' points='1080 600 1170 450 990 450'/><polygon fill='#DDD' points='1080 900 1170 750 990 750'/></g></pattern></defs><rect x='0' y='0' fill='url(#a)' width='100%' height='100%'/><rect x='0' y='0' fill='url(#b)' width='100%' height='100%'/></svg>" file = QtCore.QTemporaryFile(Form) if file.open(): file.write(contents) file.flush() Form.setStyleSheet("""background-color: #000000;

What could account for this behavior when it comes to displaying more intricate SVGs? How would I fix it?

I tried messing around with QtSVG, but I see the exam same incorrect SVG displayed(pictured below).
Here's what I tried:
import sys from PySide2.QtWidgets import QApplication from PySide2.QtSvg import QSvgWidget if __name__ == '__main__': app = QApplication(sys.argv) widget = QSvgWidget('Subtle-Prism.svg') widget.show()
