Qt Designer is a Qt tool that provides you with a what-you-see-is-what-you-get (WYSIWYG) user interface to create GUIs for your PyQt applications productively and efficiently. With this tool, you create GUIs by dragging and dropping QWidget objects on an empty form.

You can install and find QT Designer as follows (Windows environment):

  • Install latest QT (I'm using 5.8) from QT main site
  • Make sure you include "Qt 5.8 MinGW" component
  • QT Designer will be installed in C:\Qt\5.8\mingw53_32\bin\designer.exe
  • Note that the executable is named "designer.exe"

UPDATE - there is an easier way to install QT Designer without downloading GB's of data from QT:

  • Install the latest version of "pyqt5-tools" using pip install pyqt5-tools --pre

  • The "designer.exe" will be installed in ...Lib\site-packages\pyqt5_tools
