I am creating a program with Python 2.7, and have run into a problem that hours of searching Google and the forums have not answered.
My program consists of a Main_Window called sessions_window.py that holds a Tab Widget. Within each tab, there should contain a separate Main Window File. For example, one tab of sessions_window.py is the account tab, and I have another acount1.py file that contains account information, which I want to embed in the account tab (and yes, I know I spelled account "acount", I will fix later). Another tab will be called Graph, and should contain another Graph.py file (although I have not gotten to this point yet).
*As a note, I have named my elements according to an index/description system, so they are a little long and funky but it helps me.
I have successfully created the files, but am stuck on embedding them into the session_window.py tabs.
from PyQt4.QtCore import *
from PyQt4.QtGui import *
import acount1
class Ui_BxSession(object):
def configurePageB(self, BxSession):
self.accountTabImport = acount1.Ui_MainWindow
# B : Session Page
BxSession.setObjectName("BxSession")
BxSession.resize(800, 600)
# B_cn1 : Main Space Container
self.B_cn1xMainSpace = QWidget(BxSession)
self.B_cn1xMainSpace.setObjectName("B_cn1xMainSpace")
self.gridLayout_MainB = QGridLayout(self.B_cn1xMainSpace)
self.gridLayout_MainB.setObjectName("gridLayout_MainB")
BxSession.setCentralWidget(self.B_cn1xMainSpace)
# B_cn1_cn1 : Tab Window Space Container
self.B_cn1_cn1xTabWindowSpace = QTabWidget(self.B_cn1xMainSpace)
self.B_cn1_cn1xTabWindowSpace.setObjectName("B_cn1_cn1xTabWindowSpace")
self.gridLayout_MainB.addWidget(self.B_cn1_cn1xTabWindowSpace)
# B_cn1_cn1_tb1 : Account Tab
self.B_cn1_cn1_tb1xAccount = QWidget(self.B_cn1_cn1xTabWindowSpace)
self.B_cn1_cn1_tb1xAccount.setObjectName("B_cn1_cn1_tb1xAccount")
self.B_cn1_cn1xTabWindowSpace.addTab(self.B_cn1_cn1_tb1xAccount, "Account")
self.gridLayout_AccountTab = QGridLayout(self.B_cn1_cn1_tb1xAccount)
self.gridLayout_AccountTab.setObjectName("gridLayout_AccountTab")
self.gridLayout_AccountTab.addWidget(self.accountTabImport)
# B_cn1_cn1_tb2 : Session Tab
self.B_cn1_cn1_tb2xSession1 = QWidget(self.B_cn1_cn1xTabWindowSpace)
self.B_cn1_cn1_tb2xSession1.setObjectName("B_cn1_cn1_tb2xSession1")
self.B_cn1_cn1xTabWindowSpace.addTab(self.B_cn1_cn1_tb2xSession1, "Session")
### rest of code left out
if __name__ == "__main__":
import sys
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
BxSession = QMainWindow()
ui = Ui_BxSession()
ui.configurePageB(BxSession)
BxSession.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
I have imported the files, created a grid for the tab, and tried to addWidget to grid. but I get the error below.
C:\Python27\python.exe "C:/Users/smiths/Desktop/App Project/AppDev_2/rewritecode/program/session_window.py"

I also tried
self.accountTabImport = acount1.Ui_MainWindow()
with the same error message.
I also tried to skip out on defining as above and just include
self.gridLayout_AccountTab.addWidget(acount1.Ui_MainWindow).
same error.
the acount1.py contains a class which holds a bunch of functions. Dont see the need to include it here, but if it is needed let me know. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
