Classes

Utility to wrap an application widget into a window with size-grip and optional buttons, and manage their lifetime via an owner.

class madgui.widget.dialog.Dialog(owner=None, widget=None, *, parent=None, tight=True)

Bases: PyQt5.QtWidgets.QDialog

Utility to wrap an application widget into a window with size-grip and optional buttons, and manage their lifetime via an owner.

We distinguish between an owner and parent widget as follows:

• dialogs always stay on top of the parent and share their taskbar entry

• dialogs do not stay on top of the owner, nor share their taskbar entry, However: they will be kept alive as long as the owner, and when the owner is closed, will be closed as well.

Methods

closeEvent(self, QCloseEvent)
present([raise_])	Activate window and bring to front.
setExportWidget(widget, folder)
setFontSize(pointsize)
setSimpleExportWidget(widget, folder)
setWidget(widget, layout)
widget()

The second option is preferrable for most non-modal windows!

• we want to allow the mainwindow in the foreground when focussed

• we want to allow choosing between all windows from the taskbar

closeEvent(self, QCloseEvent)

present(raise_=False)
