pyqt 'Ui_Form' object has no attribute 'show'

pyqt4, python

Solution

Firstly, don't edit file generated by pyuic. Make another .py file and import it. That way, instead of trying to `show()` the generated UI file directly, you can make a `QMainWindow` based class that you can run `show()` on and it will build the generated ui file for you. Like this:

import sys
from PyQt4 import QtCore, QtGui
from Ui_Form import Ui_Form

class Main(QtGui.QMainWindow):
    def __init__(self):
        super(Main, self).__init__()

        # build ui
        self.ui = Ui_Form()
        self.ui.setupUi(self)

        # connect signals
        self.ui.some_button.connect(self.on_button)

    def on_button(self):
        print 'Button clicked!'


if __name__ == '__main__':
    app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)
    main = Main()
    main.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

Problem

this is my fill this code is generated by pyuic im using pyqt4 and python 2.7 ``` # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- # Form implementation generated from reading ui file 'editgui.ui' # # Created: Mon Nov 24 17:33:07 2014 # by: PyQt4 UI code generator 4.11.3 # # WARNING!
