Using the Designerĭesigner.exe is the program that we will use to make designing GUIs a lot easier remember the location of this or create a shortcut to it and then run it (double click if you wish). To find this using the paths we found before, go to the first path returned ('C:\Python36' in my case) and then go into the 'Scripts' folder you should find designer.exe in here. In this folder, you should find a few files, one named designer.exe.Īfter recent updates to pyqt5-tools, designer.exe has been moved to the 'Scripts' folder in your Python distribution.
In this folder, you then want to locate the pyqt5-tools folder and open it. Open up a file explorer and navigate to the site-packages folder. Here we can see my Python distribution location and the site-packages folder. This will print out a couple of paths, for me it prints. You should now be able to execute the following in Python with no errors: After each command completes, make sure to verify that they installed properly by checking if it says they were installed successfully.

Call the two commands python -m pip install pyqt5 and python -m pip install pyqt5-tools. Now you will want to install pyqt5 and pyqt5-tools. If you don't know where to get Python, look here.

Setting up the Environmentįor this tutorial, you will need a version of Python equal to or above 3.5. If you only intend on using the generated code as an initial layout and not re-generate the code (I do this a lot), you may find this method easier than importing as you can make changes to the layout a lot easier this way. ui File in a Python GUI which better explains how you should import the generated script so your changes will not be overwritten.

I have a tutorial at How to Import a PyQt5. py file, it will overwrite all your changes to the file. The reason the method demonstrated below is not recommended is due to the fact if you use pyuic again to turn a. This tutorial is not obsolete however as it can help you get a basic grasp of how to use PyQt5. Please understand this process is not the recommended method when using PyQt5 designed / pyuic this is simply a demonstration of designing a UI using the PyQt5 designer tool, generating Python code and then partially understanding what comes out.
