[PyQt] Using PyQt within an application

[andYpsilon]

Hi David!

Using only app.exec_() solves the problem that it closes down the
application. Sorry for that...what a newbie mistake ;-) Thanx alot for your
help!!

But do you know a way to use the Dialog interactively with the application?
As I already mentioned the application crashes when using it while the main
event loop of the dialog is running. I'm not sure if this is a bug of the
application or something which can be fixed in the Dialog code.?

regards,
andy
