I have succeeded with a slightly different approach: 1. In LeoQt6.py:
# Must import this before creating the GUI try: from PyQt6 import QtWebEngineWidgets except ImportError: print('No QtWebEngineWidgetsInstall with python3 -m pip install --upgrade ') 2. Add a new try: block to existing VR3 code: QWebView = None if isQt6: try: from leo.core.leoQt6 import QtWebEngineWidgets QWebView = QtWebEngineWidgets.QWebEngineView except ImportError: if not g.unitTesting: g.trace("Can't import Qt6 QtWebEngineWidgets") except AttributeError: if not g.unitTesting: g.trace('No QWebView') except Exception as e: g.trace(e) else: try: from leo.core.leoQt import QtWebKitWidgets QWebView = QtWebKitWidgets.QWebView except ImportError: if not g.unitTesting: g.trace("Can't import QtWebKitWidgets") except AttributeError: if not g.unitTesting: g.trace('No QWebView') except Exception as e: g.trace(e) This gets VR3 to render as intended. However, I'd like to see something in leoQt that makes it unnecessary to test for Qt6, but only for QtWebEngineWidgets. See next message for more on this.
