I think you should avoid reparenting the old QTabWidget to None before you<br>
move the pages into the new QTabWidget.<br>
<br>
Try this version of the switch method:<br>
<br>
    def switch(self, *args):<br>
        widgets = []<br>
        old_tab_widget = self.tab_widget<br>
        for i in reversed(range(old_tab_widget.count())):<br>
            widgets.append((old_tab_widget.widget(i), <br>
old_tab_widget.tabText(i)))<br>
            old_tab_widget.removeTab(i)<br>
<br>
        new_tab_widget = QTabWidget()<br>
        for widget, tab_text in widgets:<br>
            new_tab_widget.addTab(widget, tab_text) # <- ERROR THROWN HERE<br>
<br>
        for i in reversed(range(self.centralWidget().count())):<br>
            self.centralWidget().widget(i).setParent(None)<br>
        #old_tab_widget = None<br>
        #self.tab_widget = None<br>
<br>
        self.centralWidget().addWidget(new_tab_widget)<br>
        self.tab_widget = new_tab_widget<br>
<br>
You also shouldn't need to set the old and new tab widgets to None.<br>
