(Last updated: September 15, 2021)

I've been digging into Qt GUI programming a bit more, and I've run into a few situations where I've wanted to do something which seems to have left Google mostly stumped. As I figure out solutions I'll be posting 'em here just to hopefully get indexed and help out anyone else looking for the same things. A reasonable subtitle for this section would be "things in Qt I think should be far easier than they actually are."

These are almost certainly all going to be based on PyQt rather than the native C++ stuff. It's probably also worth noting that nearly all of this is going to be using Qt5, though I'll try to remember to note the version on the individual pages.
