<div class="userStyles" style=" font-family: Arial; font-size: 12pt; color: #000000;">Due to a recent update, a small change is necessary to complete the MiniBrowser tutorial . QWebEngineView is no longer available as a separate widget. Instead, one positions a generic Widget in the MainWindow in Designer, then "promotes" it to a WebEngineView. <br>
<br>
Eric's installation process includes PyQt6-WebEngine and PyQt6-WebEngine-Qt6, so those should already be present. (You could confirm using eric's PyPl interface.)<br>
<br>
In Designer, add a generic Widget (from the Containers section) to your form and give it a name, vwWebEngine, say. Right click on it, then select "Promote to". In the pop-up enter:<br>
Promoted class name = QWebEngineView <br>
header file = PyQt6.QtWebEngineWidgets<br>
then click Add, then Promote.<br>
<br>
As noted in the tutorial, the WebEngine wants the website URL in a QUrl object, so add that to the PyQt6.Core import line in mainwindow.py:<br>
from PyQt6.QtCore import pyqtSlot, QUrl<br>
<br>
Then lines like these should load the website:<br>
txtAddr = self.txtUrl.text()<br>
self.vwWebEngine.setUrl(QUrl(txtAddr))<br>
