PyQT5: How to open and close 3 windows consecutively

77 views Asked by At

I am have a problem in the process of my GUI. I have 3 window which is the main window -> 2nd window -> 3rd window then exit. It works well when clicking the button going to 2nd window, but if I clicked the button to window 3 it crushes.

The whole process crushes without saying any error.

This is my Code for the first window:

from window2 import *
from window3 import *

class Ui_MainWindow(object):
def openWindow2(self):
    self.window = QtWidgets.QMainWindow()
    self.ui = Ui_MainWindow2()
    self.ui.setupUi2(self.window)
    MainWindow.hide()
    self.window.show()

def setupUi(self, MainWindow):
    MainWindow.setObjectName("MainWindow")
    MainWindow.resize(637, 309)
    self.centralwidget = QtWidgets.QWidget(MainWindow)
    self.centralwidget.setObjectName("centralwidget")
    self.label = QtWidgets.QLabel(self.centralwidget)
    self.label.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(230, 90, 341, 16))
    self.label.setObjectName("label")
    self.pushButton = QtWidgets.QPushButton(self.centralwidget)
    self.pushButton.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(520, 230, 75, 23))
    self.pushButton.setObjectName("pushButton")

    self.pushButton.clicked.connect(self.openWindow2)

    MainWindow.setCentralWidget(self.centralwidget)
    self.statusbar = QtWidgets.QStatusBar(MainWindow)
    self.statusbar.setObjectName("statusbar")
    MainWindow.setStatusBar(self.statusbar)

    self.retranslateUi(MainWindow)
    QtCore.QMetaObject.connectSlotsByName(MainWindow)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    import sys
    app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
    MainWindow = QtWidgets.QMainWindow()
    ui = Ui_MainWindow()
    ui.setupUi(MainWindow)
    MainWindow.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

This is the code for the 2nd window:

from window3 import *
class Ui_MainWindow2(object):

def openWindow3(self):

    self.window = QtWidgets.QMainWindow()
    self.ui = Ui_MainWindow3()
    self.ui.setupUi3(self.window)
    MainWindow.hide()
    self.window.show()

def setupUi2(self, MainWindow):
    MainWindow.setObjectName("MainWindow")
    MainWindow.resize(481, 242)
    self.centralwidget = QtWidgets.QWidget(MainWindow)
    self.centralwidget.setObjectName("centralwidget")
    self.pushButton = QtWidgets.QPushButton(self.centralwidget)
    self.pushButton.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(340, 180, 75, 23))
    self.pushButton.setObjectName("pushButton")

    self.pushButton.clicked.connect(self.openWindow3)

    self.label = QtWidgets.QLabel(self.centralwidget)
    self.label.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(210, 100, 61, 16))
    self.label.setObjectName("label")
    MainWindow.setCentralWidget(self.centralwidget)
    self.statusbar = QtWidgets.QStatusBar(MainWindow)
    self.statusbar.setObjectName("statusbar")
    MainWindow.setStatusBar(self.statusbar)

    self.retranslateUi(MainWindow)
    QtCore.QMetaObject.connectSlotsByName(MainWindow)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    import sys
    app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
    MainWindow = QtWidgets.QMainWindow()
    ui = Ui_MainWindow2()
    ui.setupUi2(MainWindow)
    MainWindow.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

This is the code for the 3rd window:

from window1 import *
from window2 import *

from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtGui, QtWidgets

class Ui_MainWindow3(object):
def setupUi3(self, MainWindow):
    MainWindow.setObjectName("MainWindow")
    MainWindow.resize(397, 319)
    self.centralwidget = QtWidgets.QWidget(MainWindow)
    self.centralwidget.setObjectName("centralwidget")
    self.label = QtWidgets.QLabel(self.centralwidget)
    self.label.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(180, 110, 47, 13))
    self.label.setObjectName("label")
    self.pushButton = QtWidgets.QPushButton(self.centralwidget)
    self.pushButton.setGeometry(QtCore.QRect(290, 250, 75, 23))
    self.pushButton.setObjectName("pushButton")
    MainWindow.setCentralWidget(self.centralwidget)
    self.statusbar = QtWidgets.QStatusBar(MainWindow)
    self.statusbar.setObjectName("statusbar")
    MainWindow.setStatusBar(self.statusbar)

    self.retranslateUi(MainWindow)
    QtCore.QMetaObject.connectSlotsByName(MainWindow)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    import sys
    app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
    MainWindow = QtWidgets.QMainWindow()
    ui = Ui_MainWindow3()
    ui.setupUi3(MainWindow)
    MainWindow.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec_())

Can someone tell me why the process crushes in the 2nd window when button clicked and why it cannot proceed to the 3rd window?
