I have a scenario where my MainWindow needs to call and display
a popup Window...and while the window is open, processing continues
in the main application, and during processing needs to send a string or
two of text to the popup dialog.
I know how to call and display the popup window/dialog,..and I know how
to send the popup a line of text *before* it pops up....and I know how to
get text *back* when it closes...but I can't figure out how to intermittently
send the popup text for it to display.
I have two files....let's call them main.py and popup.py
In main.py, I do a
import popup as dialog
This works:
dialog = popAdd.AddNewRecordDialog(stuff,None)
dialog.exec_()
What I'd like to do inside of main.py is call..
dialog.DoIt("Whatever will be, will be")
popup.py has a plainTextEdit box,...and inside a function named "DoIt"
which is currently looking like this: (though I've tried other permutations)
def DoIt(message,self):
QDialog.plainTextBox.setPlainText(message)
I've also tried from inside main.py:
dialog.plainEditText.setText(message)
but that doesn't work either,...
Anybody got any ideas how to make this work?...
Or, if you have another suggestions, I'm all ears...
Cheers,
-Jim
