missing lib/python/qtvcp/designer was created by LearningLinuxCNC
I am trying to get started on editing QtDragon for a custom application. This is my first Qtvcp project. So I am trying to get it set up. I installed QtDesigner that looks to be working. However when I get to the python-module loading library I am running into an issue. I am missing the directory on the machine lib/python/qtvcp/designer in fact I don't have lib/python directory. I have lib/pyshared, lib/python2.6, lib/python2.7, lib/python3 and lib/python3.7 none of which have the /qtvcp/designer subfolders.

How do I go about getting the precompiled python-module loading library?

Thanks,

Jim

I have found the files that I could not locate. They are located at the following location
/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/qtvcp/designer/

there are options for 5.5 5.7 and 5.9 per the instructions.

It does not appear that I have any of those three installed on this machine. This machine is configured from the 2.8.0 iso.

After installing designer per the qtvcp instructions
[i]sudo apt-get install qttools5-dev-tools[/i]
[i]sudo apt-get install qttools5.dev[/i]

in designer and in synaptic package manager it appears the version of qt5 installed is 5.11.3

What is the appropriate version to install on debian buster?

is there a file named install script in the qtvcp/designer folder?
There is a 5.11 library available but not released yet.

Chris,

There is no file named script in the qtvcp/designer folder.

I downloaded your tar.gz file placed it in a folder called:

/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/qtvcp/designer/x86_64/qt5.11

extracted it and copied it to:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/designer/libpyqt5_py2.so

opened designer and the widgets still don't appear.

I installed all of the dependencies for building linuxcnc.

Now when I try to launch designer I get the following.
:~$ designer -qt=5
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/sboperator/.designer/plugins/python/qtvcp_plugin.py", line 22, in <module>
    from qtvcp.plugins.simplewidgets_plugin import *

If you are running a compiled RIP version of linuxcnc you need to run:
. scripts/rip-environment
before running designer.

I thought you were using an installed version of linuxcnc in which you don't need to do that.
The error message seems to indicate it doesn't find qtvcp.
In a terminal can you run the command 'qtvcp' and see what it says?

This is an installed version from 2.8.0 iso.

I downloaded all build dependencies today so I could build a kinematics module. I had issue with that also. It is in another post.

When I run qtvcp i get the following
:~$ qtvcp

And the rest because the forum would not let me put this all in one post. . .

Designer was opening earlier before downloading the build dependencies. Now it will not open.

Did you copy this file to here or use a system link (should be a system link)?

/home/sboperator/.designer/plugins/python/qtvcp_plugin.py

Here is the install script (unzip it) maybe that will be easier.
