Hide critical pyqt warning when checkboc is clicked
I am developing a GUI using PyQt4 on a Linux Ubuntu machine (XFCE desktop environment). I am using Python 2.7.
Everything works fine, except that when I click the checkbox, this message is displayed in the console (even this doesn't affect the GUI execution):
(python:9482): Gtk-CRITICAL **: IA__gtk_widget_get_direction: assertion 'GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed
Here's a piece of code that displays a list of checkboxes:
def SFCheckList(self):
groupBox = QtGui.QGroupBox("SF Functions List")
self.grid = QtGui.QGridLayout()
self.checkBoxList = [[], []]
#Reading supported SF functions
try:
sql = "SELECT SF FROM Locators"
cursor.execute(sql)
results = cursor.fetchall()
except:
print "Error: unable to fecth data (SF Functions)"
#Building the Checkbox List
for SF in results:
self.checkBoxList[0].append(QtGui.QCheckBox(SF[0]))
self.checkBoxList[1].append(SF[0])
self.SFCheckListDisplay()
groupBox.setLayout(self.grid)
return groupBox
def SFCheckListDisplay(self):
l = sqrt(len(self.checkBoxList[0]))
if(l!=int(l)):
l= int(l) + 1
i=0
j=0
for cb in self.checkBoxList[0]:
self.grid.addWidget(cb, i, j)
j+=1
if(j==l):
i+=1
j=0
I am using the console to get information about tests. How can I prevent this message from appearing?
Thank!

I had a similar problem with the following code on Windows 7, PyQt5:
import sys
from PyQt5.QtGui import *
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import *
from PyQt5.QtCore import *
class Window(QWidget):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
QWidget.__init__(self, *args, **kwargs)
self.stderr_backup = None
self.label = QLabel("Test", self)
self.layout = QHBoxLayout()
self.layout.addWidget(self.label)
self.setLayout(self.layout)
self.show()
app = QApplication(sys.argv)
win = Window()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
The error message from Qt was as follows, but the application still worked correctly.
QWindowsWindow::setGeometry: Unable to set geometry 42x35+520+270 on QWidgetWindow/'WindowClassWindow'. Resulting geometry: 112x35+520+270 (frame: 8, 29, 8, 8, custom margin: 0, 0, 0, 0, minimum size: 42x35, maximum size: 16777215x16777215).
I was able to disable the message using:
def handler(msg_type, msg_log_context, msg_string):
pass
PyQt5.QtCore.qInstallMessageHandler(handler)
However, I'm not sure if this will work on PyQt4 in your case as well.
