Hey Everyone,
Beginner question, I am trying to get better working with Qt, but it has been a while since I learned basics of using it. I am trying to create a simple window at the moment with a title. I have seen online that I should use QWidgets.setWindowTitle(), but Maya keeps telling me that module doesn't exist. I don't seem to see any modules that would change a window title in the Qt.py file. How would I go about creating a Title?
Best,
Tom

I think you misread QWidgets for QWidget, which means every instance of a QWidget has setWindowTitle().

Thank you! I am getting an error that QWidget is not defined. I am guessing I am initializing the window incorrectly.

Have a look at this example.
class MyWindow(QtWidgets.QDialog):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
super(MyWindow, self).__init__(parent)
self.setWindowTitle("My Window Title")
Where QDialog is subclassed from QWidget, and also has this member.

I get it! Thank you, I wasn't trying to use classes. I know that when I learned how to use Qt, I was told to use classes, but I forgot to do that this time around. You are great Marcus!

No problem. :)
You can also this without subclassing.
my_window = QtWidgets.QDialog()
my_window.setWindowTitle("My Window Title")

Great, thanks! I did notice that, but I think for what I am attempting to do, classes is the way to go.
