After you design your class in the Qt Designer, you need to run pyuic to
convert the .ui file to a python file (which you'd probably subclass in
another module to add your own code, as you don't want to mess the
automatically generated file). If you want, you can add a builder (project >

have to go to the console to ask pyuic to be rerun every time you change the
file.
