Xmmm...i tried what you said, the PyQt examples (examples/designer/plugins). When I click on "Launch", a message box informs me that "This example will start Qt Designer when you click the OK button..." but this never happens. It also says that after that,PyQt examples are going to be found in their own group in Qt Designer, which also never happens.
A detail: I have installed (Win XP system) latest version of PyQt only, not QT itself. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ulrich Berning Sent: Wednesday, April 16, 2008 4:13 PM To: pyqt@riverbankcomputing.com Subject: Re: [PyQt] QT Designer for Custom Widgets. objectref wrote: >Hi, > >I am reading Mark Summerfields' "Rapid Gui Programming with Python and Qt". >Until the chapter I am now, I saw that we can build a new custom widget by >subclassing an existing one and adding our own stuff.

There you can see how to write plugins to use your own widget classes with Qt Designer. Also take a look at the PyQt documentation: "http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/static/Docs/PyQt4/pyqt4ref.html#writing-q t-designer-plugins" Ulli _______________________________________________ PyQt mailing list PyQt@riverbankcomputing.com http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt _______________________________________________ PyQt mailing list PyQt@riverbankcomputing.com http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/pyqt
