[PyQt] qt designer bug in both pyqt4 and pyqt5 for windows

Tue Nov 13 13:47:22 GMT 2018

Hi Kyle,

Sorry I can't find the other email reply from you for some reason on this
email address so am having to reply back to the last one i sent you.

Before I was opening designer via
venv/Lib/site-packages/pyqt5-tools/designer.exe

Now that I open via venv/Scripts/pyqt5designer.exe , which I previously did
not know about, everything works fine without even having to specify any
command line parameters.
