FontLab 7 PythonQt API

Version: 2020-08-09

FontLab uses Qt, a cross-platform set of APIs for user interface development and interaction with the operating system. Qt provides a unified API whether you use macOS or Windows. The PythonQt package exposes the entire Qt API to Python.

  • PythonQt: FontLab’s API docs for the PythonQt package
  • official PythonQt: the official documentation of PythonQt
  • PySide2 by Qt: documentation of PySide2, which is an alternative Qt-Python bridge. The documentation is useful in exploring what you can do with Qt. Some details differ between PySide2 and PythonQt, so always check PythonQt documentation.
