Where are these tools after installing PySide6 on macOS?

After running pip3 install pyside6 on Windows, we can see many tools.

Where are these tools after installing PySide6 on macOS? There is no result in the search.

Please use the Python entry points (pyside6-designer, pyside6-linguist), etc; they should be present on macOS, too.

@friedemannkleint Could you explain more?

@markleo Literally call pyside6-designer on the command line and it will start the designer. Same for other tools.

before ask this question I have tried, I think I should install it individually.

There is no command:

@markleo
My understanding is that pyside6-designer should be in the bin directory of where pip installed pyside6 for use in your virtual environment. For example on my Linux box it's at /home/jon/.venv/pyside6/bin/pyside6-designer. Which should be on your PATH when the venv is active (source ~/.venv/pyside6/bin/activate). I'm not sure I see any bin directory in either of your two screenshots.

I do not use MacOS. The other MacOS users here say it should be there too. Assuming MacOS allows much the same as Linux I would try from a command line:

find / -name 'pyside6-designer' 2>/dev/null

and go make yourself a cup of coffee. Does that find it anywhere on your machine?

Otherwise you will have to await a MacOS user to say where they find it located or why you would not have it.

@markleo You have the conda base environment activated but used pip to install pyside6. So which pip did you use exactly ?
What are the exact step you used ?
What was the state of your terminal at that time ?
