Hello All,

Is there anyone who can help me with the setup of QT Creator?

I have downloaded and installed it twice but still get stuck.

see this link for the post I posed in the Q&A section.

Installing and using QT Creator software

Hello everyone, I have been learning programming GUI apps doing it mostly in code. Now I am trying to download the QT Creater software to create GUIs, however once I have downloaded the software it will not let me create a project. The message I keep getting, even when re-installing the software is shown in the image below. I have removed the software from my PC and re-installed it making sure I check all the approprate boxes before installing, however I just can’t seem to get past this point so…

Hi @Gav

If you’re wanting to use Qt Designer for designing UIs in Qt, you can just download Qt Designer directly. The instructions are on the site here: Download Qt Designer for Windows, Mac and Linux

Qt Creator is a combined application which includes Qt Designer and some other things, but those other parts are really not used for Python development. It’s easier to just use Qt Designer standalone.

Hello Martin,

Thank you for getting back to me. I have now uninstalled the Qt tools and only downloaded the QT Designer. Looks less busy and much better thank you.
May I ask if the content in your book is the same as the content on the website?

Kind Regards
