How to install and use pyqt5

aidanikuz

Hello, sorry if this is the wrong forum but im trying to use PyQt5 on my windows 7 and I might not be doing it right or something. So ive done pip install SIP and pip install pyqt5. Following this post, Ive done from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidget and I should have a designer.exe somewhere for the QT Designer but I don't have that in my directory. So i don't know, am i missing a step? something i need to download?

Hi and welcome to devnet,

Riverbank Computing support page lists their resources regarding PyQt.

You can try:

pip install PyQt5-tools if you hasn't install qt
copy desinger.exe from qt installation directory to ../PyQt5/Qt/bin
