Hi All,

I send this email at the end of August but did not see any response from
it. Did this get received by the mailing list?

Cheers
Ben

Hi All,



I am trying to use Qt designer but the pyqt4.dll and pyqt5.dll plugins fail
to load for both pyqt4 and pyqt5 respectively. The error messages (that can
be found via help->about plugins) are as follow:



*PyQt4*

Cannot load library
C:/Local/Git_Repo/hyperioninfra/auto_tools/front_end/general/venv/Lib/site-packages/PyQt4/plugins/designer/pyqt4.dll:
The specified module could not be found.



*PyQt5*

Cannot load library
C:\Local\Git_Repo\hyperioninfra\auto_tools\front_end\test\venv\Lib\site-packages\pyqt5-tools\plugins\designer\pyqt5.dll:
The specified module could not be found.



Please see image attachments for specific info.



I am using Python 3.6 with Windows 7. I have downloaded pyqt4 via “pip3.6
install PyQt4_windows_whl” and pyqt5 via “pip3.6 install PyQt5”. For pyqt4
I used the qt designer that came with the package, and for pyqt5 I used the
qt designer from pyqt5-tools which I download via “pip3.6 install
pyqt5-tools”.



I think these issues are the reason I cannot integrate custom widgets
written in python to the designers which is my end goal.





Regards,

Ben
