This is quite a generous amount of time to devote toward this contribution. I really enjoyed it. Thanks.

I'm going to try and learn these while using pyqt6. I may be back in the comments for help. Thank you for your videos though. Not a ton of good recent pyqt stuff.

Excellent video. It would be great if you can post a video regarding how to connect to a rest api (OAuth2 OIDC Connect) in python

Thanks for this video, excellent as usual, for the table from excel one code could be simplified like this:

for row in range(1, len(raw_data)):
for col in range(len(raw_data[0])):
self.tablewidget.setItem(row - 1, col,
of course the is raw_data is the list of the excel file values
and also a small tweak to title display, instead of the whole file path showing as a title, you can only display the file name using the following tweak

Hi Qt has made offline installer obsolete and I am facing an error “forbidden” while using the online installer. Is there any solution to this?

Hey! I hope you are well. I want to embed a Canvas (drawing pad) into a window. I made a pyqt5 version of paint but I can't seem to have it inside another window with other buttons. I have sent you and email (with more details of my failed trials) and a github issue. Can you help me with that please ? Thank you in advance.

Hello! Please help me how to correctly solve the administration problem, for example, use Python, QT, PostgreSQL. Please recommend an algorithm for organizing an access level for adesktop application where different interface components are included in different access classes, and when a new user is added, he will be included in one of these classes, and for him there will be Only components that are included in this access class are accessible. The question is, in order to implement this, what algorithm can be supported, or if there is documentation that can help resolve this issue. Thank you very much in advance!

I tried to download Python Qt designer but the download speeds are lame! 40kbps~ it's been 2 hours already and it's at 9% I gave up. It's back to good old tkinter for me.

8:10 🙀Bro she's just dragging and dropping widgets. Tkinter's grid() and pack() methods makes me suffer in vain.
