Ew. Note to noobmonkey: If you use pyuic4 to convert a ui.. don't modify that code directly. That gets ugly and messy and then you can't modify it again with QT Designer. It's just bad mojo. Have a separate class in your main .py file that calls the UI class and put everything into that. So much cleaner.. and then you can open/edit/save/convert your UI all day long and never have to change a lick of code.
