Qt Property Browser Framework or similar in python

Question

I am using pyqt for one of my projects and need a property browser similar to the one provided by qtdesigner supporting hierarchical properties:

I have found that Qt supports a Property Browser Framework but couldn't find it in pyqt so I jumped to the conclusion that pyqt does not support this framework.

Does pyqt support this framework or something similar? Or should I start coding this from scratch?

Answer 1

For those of you landing here, I was able to roll my own solution based on the pyqtgraph's Parameter Tree which forms a solid basis for such purposes in my own opinion.

Answer 2

The Property Browser Framework is part of Qt Solutions, and not part of the main Qt Toolkit. I'm not sure of the full history of Qt Solutions, but I think it was dropped from the SDK after Digia took over from Nokia. Anyway, all the Qt Solutions classes are now deprecated, and there's no real development done on them anymore.

There was never any plan to include the Qt Solutions classes in PyQt - although I suppose a websearch might find some third-party libraries that are still being maintained, if you're really keen to use them. Probably wiser to just roll your own solution, though...
