No QtDesigner...

[Geert Vancompernolle]

Hi,

Using Eric6 20.5 installation, I wanted to experiment with GUI 
applications.  However, when trying to open the .ui file, I get the 
following error:

I've read somewhere QtDesigner is not part of the standard PyQt5 package 
anymore, already for a while.  So, I downloaded the PyQt5Designer 5.14.1 
using pip (https://pypi.org/project/PyQt5Designer/#files).

The QtDesigner executable is installed in 
..\Lib\site-packages\QtDesigner (why not in 
..\Lib\site-packages\PyQt5\....???) and works well when used individually.

But when I want to open the .ui file again in Eric6 (after restarting 
Eric6), it still wants to see the designer.exe file inside 
..\Lib\site-packages\PyQt5\Qt\bin (which is _*not*_ the location where 
the PyQt5Designer has installed designer.exe).

Question: is there a way to tell Eric6 to look for designer.exe in 
another location?

Best rgds,
