GUI Builder¶
Installing the Qt Designer¶
In a terminal install the Qt Designer with:
sudo apt install qttools5-dev-tools
Building a GUI¶
Run the Qt Designer from the Applications > Programming menu and select a mainwindow.
Adding items from the side bar is drag and drop.
After dragging a widget into the window make sure you use the correct objectName for that widget. For example the E Stop button is called estop_pb.
Save the GUI in the configuration directory where you launch LinuxCNC.
