@IvoFlipse Yeah, for PyQt, the example code on the internet is C++, but there is some example code in the PyQt directory that is in Python... it's a bit unhelpful that you have to learn a bit of C++ to learn PyQt.
I used the Qt Designer to create a .ui file, then used the uic module to compile that to a .py file, which I then imported for the majority of the gui elements. Then you're just left with creating your QApplication class and getting that going.
@IvoFlipse yep, i understand your pain. but i gave up the ide-bullshit long time before and just use vim. its the only true platform-independent way i can live with
yeah, I was buggered by thousands for it, a nightmare... at least I have a good relationship with Intel
I bought a bunch of I5 CPUs and the motherboards should be here tomorrow, I have never had a problem with Intel warranty, even 3 years after purchase... a lot happier on this than I am about nvidia
@IvoFlipse ohh, if you haven't already, get yourself an 80%+ certified PSU, (90% if you find one), they cost about £50-£60, but you would be surprised, if you have your PC on 24x7 like me, they can pay for themselves within about 6 months
I can't really suggest anything that I haven't in other answers - check for updates :( but I am sure you have already done that - again, also try disabling over clocking, just in case that is the cause...
The first few times asking a question on any SE site is always nerve racking to me... esp now that I'm heavily involved with maintence on SU... I don't want to be that guy that everyone hates lol
Oh, one moment, I have a more "built in" program, that creates all it's forms dynamically as it loads, though it screws my head over trying to remember how it builds itself. I can send you that if you want...

But that's for batch retagging.
Anyhow, done retagging.
help is empty now, gonna check if everything in problem can be pruned and then update my meta question.
@Linker3000: Yeah, it is. See my prior discussion yesterday...
I don't see the use in bothering people for a small amount of tags.
Hmm, found another tag that might be able to house them...
Most of the questions are using problem as a meta tag, can that tag perhaps be obliterated?
Update: I looked through all tags, re-tagged only one to troubleshooting because it was necessary...
Alternative suggestion: Can problem me merged into troubleshooting? It would make sense.
@TomWij I don't know if it's the case (new to the tag admin stuff), but it would be nice if some generic tag words were disallowed to encourage people to be more creative
Hi there,
I'm not quite sure if such questions are allowed on SU. Nevertheless, try and error:
I was just wondering whether there is a sketch program like Adobe Ideas for iPad that has an infinite canvas but for OSX. It need not be feature rich and all that. Very simple, just for sketching out ...
What does it look like?
There is only one behavior close to that problem and that would be the Always On Top behavior.
Some piece of code, perhaps from the program itself might be changing the property of your window...
How is a window set to be "Always On Top"?

This round I have an interesting problem: my laptop monitor isn't working. It works in BIOS and for 5 seconds after I boot it up from standby. External monitor works fine. I can see what I put on the laptop monitor, which is quite dim, almost like the backlight broke. What's going on?
There is just too much chat history for me to read the whole transcript right now :P I just got done reading all the post-discussion discussion in the town hall chat what're you all up to?
Privoxy can do this for you:
As it doesn't handle HTTPS traffic it will only filter HTTP traffic, you could use cookie crunching
The user.action file should look similar to this:
{ +crunch-incoming-cookies +crunch-outgoing-cookies }
/ # Match all URLs
When MacOS boots up and the users is prompted to select the account (s)he wants to login into, the users can either click the name / icon of the account with the mouse or just type in the name of the account.
I want to do the same at the login screen of Windows7: Login screen pops up, I start to...
@TomWij, by 'go for this one' do you mean write the software within the 2 days the bounty has remaining? if you do that, you deserve more than just +500
I've been messing about with credential providers a bit for something I've been working on, and it's a major PITA
someone at microsoft decided, "since we've been trying to push .NET and CLR and all that goodness, let's make them use old fashioned Win32 APIs to do this!"
basically, all you need to do is enumerate all of the enabled accounts, put them in a dropdown box (which is one of the default controls available to you), then have the default input be on that box. dropdown boxes do autocompletion automatically, though it wouldn't be as pretty as what this user is asking for, it would probably work
and by "basically" i mean "far more difficultly than it sounds"
haha I have this FF addon that I just press a button and it runs based off of a set of rules, @BloodPhilia, so I don't have to capitalize everything, just what I tell it to
@IvoFlipse You can automate requests with Fiddler2, although the best would be to propose Jeff. Perhaps on Meta.SO as I think others site might benefit this too...
