App crashes when reopening a subwindow - JayCee - Aug-03-2021
Hi, guys! I have a MainWindow with a subwindow inside an mdiArea. The subwindow opens, but if I close it and try to reopen it, my app crashes. What am I doing wrong? Here's my code:
from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets
class Ui_MainWindow(object):

where is the " self "... I guess it might be because you didn't specify this on the bottom line on the side I cut out... I didn't have a chance to test your code, I'm just making a guess.

It prints out a memory address error in the Pycharm console window, but that's it.
RE: App crashes when reopening a subwindow - JokerSob - Aug-03-2021
line 140, in <module>
ui.setupUi(MainWindow)
line 15, in setupUi
self.ui.mdiArea = QtWidgets.QMdiArea()
AttributeError: 'Ui_MainWindow' object has no attribute 'ui'
also ui = Ui_MainWindow() - ui.setupUi(MainWindow) When you remove these two, the window opens. I would like to solve your mistake but now I will go to sleep

Hi Axel. Your code worked perfectly, again. I'm going to study it line by line to understand what you did. You even made the buttons beautiful. Thanks a lot for all your time and help!!

Zeal is a fine app (Win / Mac / Linux) for offline docs (200 programming languages available)

A layout is, so to speak, a box in which widgets are placed.
QVBoxLayout -> vertical
QHBoxLayout -> horizontal
layout = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout()is the (vertical) Layout for the whole window.
fields_box = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout()all QLineEdit are placed in this (vertical) Layout
btn_box_1 = QtWidgets.QHBoxLayout()btn_box_2 = QtWidgets.QHBoxLayout()btn_box_3 = QtWidgets.QHBoxLayout()In this horizontal layouts, the buttons are placed next to each other.
layout.addLayout(fields_box)layout.addLayout(btn_box_1)layout.addLayout(btn_box_2)layout.addLayout(btn_box_3)all layouts are added to the main layout.

Great tip! Just downloaded and installed it. Amazing tool... By the way, I learned my lesson NOT to use Qt Designer.

The weird thing now is that when I try to fix the swu size it simply won't work. I tried a dozen different ways, including:
self.setMaximumSize(QtCore.QSize(400, 300)) and
self.setFixedSize(QtCore.QSize(400, 300))
but to no avail...
