The simple way is to just create your tab in the ui and add your widgets then using the Python module connect all of your widgets to your Python code.

Hi,

JT thanks for your reply.
additional for this situation question. I have two sliders. Usong Slider1 user may choose value 10..20. slider2 could be 0..100 . But if slider1 is more than 15, Slider2 could be only 80..100.
How i may realise this?

Thanks in advance.

That would have to be done in your custom Python code using the sliders valueChanged() signal to trigger a call to your function and use the setMinimum() function of the slider to change the minimum set point.

I just tried this and it works fine

from functools import partial

def startup(parent):
	parent.slider_1.valueChanged.connect(partial(slider_1, parent))
	parent.slider_2.valueChanged.connect(partial(slider_2, parent))

def slider_1(parent):
	parent.label_1.setText(f'{parent.slider_1.value()}')
	if parent.slider_1.value() >= 15:
		parent.slider_2.setMinimum(80)
	else:
		parent.slider_2.setMinimum(0)

def slider_2(parent):
	parent.label_2.setText(f'{parent.slider_2.value()}')

Hi, JT!
thanks a lot.
Its works fine.
Also im used parent.slider1.setSliderPosition(int) for setting needed value with 'if' to controlling the range without changing min/max.

Best regards
