For chrissakes, the Stackasses on Stack Overflow have, in their typical fashion, downvoted my question instead of attempting to answer it.

I seriously need help with coding a PyQt5 wizard I made in Qt Designer. I’m so sick of fucking around with these idiots.

Can someone point me somewhere PRODUCTIVE where I might get some help? Looking at Experts Exchange and wondering if they have the necessary expertise. Getting to the point where I’m actually thinking of shelling out money. But I’d much rather just find a good online community or something.

TIA

I'm curious to see the question

@D@D--M I’d rather keep my DevRant account separate from my SO account even tho I’m really starting to hate those assholes.

I was asking if you have to structure a Qt Designer QWizard so that its pages are in separate files in order to be able to subclass the pages so you can reimplement events. I need to do that in order to control signals that determine if the wizard buttons are enabled.

I’m thinking the answer is yes, I’m fucked and have to redesign and recode my wizard. Was hoping one of them knew something I didn’t.

I found your question.

Why don't you just try the all in one method and see what happens?

@spongessuck I’m not really sure what you’re talking about. Sorry.

@AndSoWeCode Thanks for assuming I’m a jackass who can’t ask a question properly.

@AndSoWeCode I ask questions about complex shit that’s not easily found in Google search. It doesn’t matter how closely it follows their rules. Someone has to downvote. Probably someone who had no idea what I’m even talking about. Dude.

It’s a gaggle of assholes. Everyone knows it. If you think it’s all great, maybe you should be the one looking in a mirror.

@AndSoWeCode Oh fucking christ, really??? Don’t you have someone else’s rants to go post on?

@iHatePython To be fair mate, I used to hate Stack because I was in your spot. Downvoted and scolded at. But then again, you can't assume they are *all* arseholes because one to a few people downvoted your question. And to be fair, they have their point. Exhaust your resources first (my case would be spending a solid 45 minutes scrambling the web for answers before I ask) then you should ask, with your scrambling history in it as well. Last resort if you still don't wanna go to SO is programming Discord servers (The Coding Den, The Programmers' Hangout, etc.).

But then again, I'm just a hobbyist try-hard of Python.

@PythonTryHard Thanks for the spots to check out.

See, I do all of that. I spend sometimes days researching before I finally break down and post. The stuff I work with is just not well documented if it’s documented at all. I always mentioned the research I’ve done and which resources I’ve consulted. I try to outline my problems clearly and ask for the specific information I need to know. Maybe there aren’t just a bunch of assholes on there, but it seems like with the exception of one dude, assholes are all I’ve found.

I try everything I possibly can to avoid posting on SO. And I’m not alone in that. There are many seasoned SO posters out there who have put out blog posts, etc about their negative experiences and how flawed and toxic the community is. SO itself recently launched a campaign to try to get its community to stop being such assholes. https://stackoverflow.blog/2018/04/...

Yep. They got issues.

Stupid question: why don't you just avoid QWizard and make it yourself? Not really that hard

@PythonTryHard +1 for The Programmers Hangout
Awesome and helpful community, definitely worth a shot

@AndSoWeCode I have the same experience. I feel like the SO community barely downvotes something that should not be downvoted. From what I see they only miss providing feedback for why they downvote a question sometimes.
