PyQT5 compatibility issue: saving data from pyqtgraph.widgets.TableWidget

[Thomas Schultz]

The save method in TableWidget.py is not compatible with PyQt5, because QtGui.QFileDialog.getSaveFileName returns a tuple.

This can be fixed by modifying the save method (see snippet below). Is there a way to have simultaneous compatibility with PyQt4 and PyQt5?

class MyTableWidget(pyqtgraph.TableWidget):

    

    def save(self, data):

        """ Overload save routine to make it PyQt5 compatible. """

        fileName, _ = QtGui.QFileDialog.getSaveFileName(self, "Save As..", "", "Tab-separated values (*.tsv)")

        if fileName == '':

            return

        open(fileName, 'w').write(data)

Hi Thomas,

for compatibility between PyQt4 and PySide I always used this expression:

filename = QtGui.QFileDialog.getSaveFileName( ...)

if isinstance(filename, tuple):

    filename = filename[0]

if filename == '':

   ...

That should work here, too.

Cheers

Sebastian
