Description

There is a problem with the layout of the form of the processing tools. I'm not able to use processing as a result of this.

All service providers seem to be affected: SAGA, GDAL, etc.

I removed the .qgis3 directory and restarted QGIS but this hasn't solved the problem.

remove QgsScrollAreaWidgetPlugin from custom widgets

it had to be removed form the widget list in uic plugin. It might be better to provide the real list of implemented widgets rather than the full gui list.

[processing] Fix bad layout for docks in modeler

Because there's some deep underlying issue which causes the dock
layouts to get corrupted in certain circumstances, avoid the
issue entirely by moving construction of the docks out of
the .ui file and instead do it all manually via Python code.

History

#1 Updated by Tim Sutton over 7 years ago

I also get this issue on Mac OS

#2 Updated by matteo ghetta over 7 years ago

Same issue on Linux Mint 18.1 with Cinnamon and Mate as desktop environments.

Some further information and clues:

1. problems started after this commit:

#aad182fdc041bd5e83be5b2b399cae496826c008

2. by removing the file `qgis_customwidgets.py` from here:

/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PyQt4/uic/widget-plugins/qgis_customwidgets.py

then Processing looks fine but other plugins with custom qgis widget created in Qt Designer are broken and in Qt Designer all the qgis widgets have disappeared

#3 Updated by Frank Sokolic over 7 years ago

I've just upgraded my OS to Ubuntu 17.04 and the problem still occurs. I also uninstalled and then reinstalled QGIS but this didn't solve the problem either.

#8 Updated by Richard Duivenvoorde over 7 years ago

I had this problem too (Debian testing... now stable :-) ),
could not use/show processing untill I used Matteo's 'trick': remove(!)

/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PyQt5/uic/widget-plugins/qgis_customwidgets.py

and restart QGIS3, then all seems ok. To me it looks like there is something in the
qgis_customwidgets.py which brings havoc to my gui.

Every time I compile/install Master off course it is placed back.
In the header of the file it mentions PyQt4:

/pythonX/dist-packages/PyQt4/uic/widget-plugins/

is it still used?

#10 Updated by Denis Rouzaud over 7 years ago

This might comes from the fact that QGIS python lib is not installed (not in path), so running qgis_customwidgets.py fails.
Anyone can confirm that installing QGIS in system actually solves the issue?

#11 Updated by Frank Sokolic over 7 years ago

Denis, not sure what you mean by "Anyone can confirm that installing QGIS in system actually solves the issue?". Are you referring to the path?

#12 Updated by Denis Rouzaud over 7 years ago

It was a misunderstanding on my side.

I think that compiling the ui files using pyuic directly when building would solve the issue.
I'm on it.

#13 Updated by Denis Rouzaud over 7 years ago

I can't find the issue here.
Tried to use pyuic without success.
Tried to remove QgsScrollArea from custom widgets (which seems to be causing the issue here) without success.

#14 Updated by Etienne Trimaille over 7 years ago

I tried to rename the only file `qgis_customwidgets.py` but it's still not working for me, I can't open Processing in master.

$ find /Users/etienne/dev/ -name *qgis_customwidgets.py
/Users/etienne/dev//c/QGIS/python/custom_widgets/BREAK_qgis_customwidgets.py

#15 Updated by Frank Sokolic over 7 years ago

Renaming worked for me:

$ cd /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PyQt5/uic/widget-plugins
$ sudo mv qgis_customwidgets.py qgis_customwidgets.p

This is on Ubuntu 17.04.

Still true in current master.

Renaming the qgis_customwidgets.py works for me.

#21 Updated by Mario Baranzini over 6 years ago

I have the same problem with QGIS 3.0.3 compiled on Archlinux.

Removing 

/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/PyQt5/uic/widget-plugins/qgis_customwidgets.py
doesn't work. The file is created again at each QGIS launch.

Edit: sorry, I was wrong. Removing the file works for me too.
