`TaurusWidget`

class TaurusWidget(parent=None, designMode=False)[source]

This is a Qt.QWidget that additionally accepts a model property. This type of taurus container classes are specially useful if you define a parent taurus model to them and set all contained taurus widgets to use parent model. Example:

from taurus.qt.qtgui.container import TaurusWidget
from taurus.qt.qtgui.display import TaurusLabel

widget = TaurusWidget()
layout = Qt.QVBoxLayout()
widget.setLayout(layout)
widget.model = 'sys/database/2'
stateWidget = TaurusLabel()
layout.addWidget(stateWidget)
stateWidget.model = 'sys/database/2/state'

Import from taurus.qt.qtgui.container as:

from taurus.qt.qtgui.container import TaurusWidget

applyPendingChanges()[source]

classmethod getQtDesignerPluginInfo()[source]
