How to fix buttons not showing properly using Python, PyQt5, and Pyinstaller
0
I created an interface using Qt Designer and integrated it into my python code using PyQt5. I then created an exe file using Pyinstaller and the interface shows up fine on my laptop using Windows 10 Home. However testing on a different windows machine using Windows 10 Pro shows the buttons and labels all cut out , with wrong font and all as shown below. For example, the top title should be GEODISTANCE CALCULATOR' but only shows 'GEODISTANCE CA'. What causes this incompatibility and how can I fix this?
I have the example code below for anyone who would like a sample to test on:
from PyQt5 import uic, QtWidgets
import sys
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
window = uic.loadUi('interface.ui')
window.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
The complete code for the ui file derived from Qt Designer is as shown below and the file can be recreated by copying and pasting the code to a text editor and saving the file as 'interface.ui':

python pyqt5 pyinstaller qt-designer
asked Nov 20 '18 at 10:33

I created an interface using Qt Designer and integrated it into my python code using PyQt5. I then created an exe file using Pyinstaller and the interface shows up fine on my laptop using Windows 10 Home. However testing on a different windows machine using Windows 10 Pro shows the buttons and labels all cut out , with wrong font and all as shown below. For example, the top title should be GEODISTANCE CALCULATOR' but only shows 'GEODISTANCE CA'. What causes this incompatibility and how can I fix this?
I have the example code below for anyone who would like a sample to test on:
from PyQt5 import uic, QtWidgets
import sys
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
window = uic.loadUi('interface.ui')
window.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
The complete code for the ui file derived from Qt Designer is as shown below and the file can be recreated by copying and pasting the code to a text editor and saving the file as 'interface.ui':

This issue is solved by adding a few more lines of code as shown below. Someone already posted this answer but they deleted it probably thinking its wrong as it took me a while to get back to them with the results, so thank you!
from PyQt5 import uic, QtWidgets
import sys
# Enable high DPI scaling
if hasattr(QtCore.Qt, 'AA_EnableHighDpiScaling'):
PyQt5.QtWidgets.QApplication.setAttribute(QtCore.Qt.AA_EnableHighDpiScaling, True)
if hasattr(QtCore.Qt, 'AA_UseHighDpiPixmaps'):
PyQt5.QtWidgets.QApplication.setAttribute(QtCore.Qt.AA_UseHighDpiPixmaps, True)
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
window = uic.loadUi('interface.ui')
window.show()
sys.exit(app.exec_())
