I have a PyQt application which has a tab widget that can open any number of tabs. Each tab embeds a matplotlib canvas displaying graphs.
Lately, I have tried to implement InteractiveGraph from netgraph library, with little success despite the help of other stackoverflow similar topic. Maybe it comes from the additional presence of tabs, I don't know.
What I observe is that I can't manage to click on the graph nodes. Graph are properly displayed though.
Below is a quick example of my code (tabs have static graph values for testing, each added tab add an embedded graph), and how I tried to implement proposed solution of similar topic. I was not sure about necessity of using mpl_connect, so I tried with and without it and it didn't change anything.
import sys
from PyQt5 import QtCore, QtWidgets
from matplotlib.backends.backend_qt5agg import FigureCanvasQTAgg as FigureCanvas
from matplotlib.pyplot import Figure
import networkx as nx
import numpy as np
from netgraph import InteractiveGraph
class data_tab(QtWidgets.QWidget):
def __init__(self, parent, title):
QtWidgets.QWidget.__init__(self, parent)
self.data_tab_glayout = QtWidgets.QGridLayout(self)
self.canvas = FigureCanvas(Figure(figsize=(5, 3)))
self.canvas.setParent(parent)
self.canvas.setFocusPolicy(QtCore.Qt.ClickFocus)
self.canvas.setFocus()
self.canvas_vlayout = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout(self.canvas)
self.data_tab_glayout.addWidget(self.canvas, 0, 0, 2, 1)
self.canvas.mpl_connect('key_press_event', self.on_key_press)
self.axe = self.canvas.figure.add_subplot(111)
self.canvas.figure.subplots_adjust(left=0.025, top=0.965, bottom=0.040, right=0.975)
# add the tab to the parent
parent.addTab(self, "")
# set text name
parent.setTabText(parent.indexOf(self), title)
def on_key_press(self, event):
print("you press", event.key)
class MyApp(QtWidgets.QMainWindow):
def __init__(self, parent=None):
QtWidgets.QMainWindow.__init__(self, parent)
self.showMaximized()
self.centralwidget = QtWidgets.QWidget(self)
self.verticalLayout = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout(self.centralwidget)
self.core_tab = QtWidgets.QTabWidget(self.centralwidget)
self.verticalLayout.addWidget(self.core_tab)
self.add_tab_btn = QtWidgets.QPushButton(self.centralwidget)
self.verticalLayout.addWidget(self.add_tab_btn)
self.refresh_tab_btn = QtWidgets.QPushButton(self.centralwidget)
self.verticalLayout.addWidget(self.refresh_tab_btn)
self.setCentralWidget(self.centralwidget)
self.add_tab_btn.setText("Add Tab")
self.refresh_tab_btn.setText("Refresh Tabs")
self.core_tab.setEnabled(True)
self.core_tab.setTabShape(QtWidgets.QTabWidget.Rounded)
self.core_tab.setElideMode(QtCore.Qt.ElideNone)
self.core_tab.setDocumentMode(False)
self.core_tab.setTabsClosable(True)

self.tab_counter = 0
self.random_tabs = [("a", ["b", "c"]),

self.add_tab_btn.clicked.connect(self.openRandomTab)
self.refresh_tab_btn.clicked.connect(self.refreshAllTabs)
def openRandomTab(self):
tab = data_tab(self.core_tab, "test " + str(self.tab_counter))
self._drawDataGraph(self.tab_counter % len(self.random_tabs), tab)
self.tab_counter += 1
self.core_tab.setCurrentIndex(self.core_tab.indexOf(tab))
def _drawDataGraph(self, tabNb, dataWidget):
dataWidget.axe.cla()
# 1. draw graph
producer = self.random_tabs[tabNb][0]
consumers = self.random_tabs[tabNb][1]
color_map = []
DG = nx.DiGraph()
for i, cons in enumerate(consumers):
DG.add_edge(producer, cons, label=f"edge-{i}")
node_color = dict()
for node in DG:
if node in producer:
node_color[node] = "#DCE46F"
else:
node_color[node] = "#6FA2E4"
pos = nx.shell_layout(DG)
pos[producer] = pos[producer] + np.array([0.2, 0])
labels = nx.get_edge_attributes(DG, 'label')
graph_instance = InteractiveGraph(DG, node_layout=pos, edge_layout='curved', origin=(-1, -1), scale=(2, 2),
node_color=node_color, node_size=8.,
node_labels=True, node_label_fontdict=dict(size=10),
edge_labels=labels, edge_label_fontdict=dict(size=10), ax=dataWidget.axe
)
dataWidget.canvas.draw()
def refreshAllTabs(self):
# loop through all pages and associated to get
for tab_index in range(self.core_tab.count()):
data_tab_widget = self.core_tab.widget(tab_index)
# draw graph
self._drawDataGraph(tab_index % len(self.random_tabs), data_tab_widget)
sys.argv = ['']
app = QtWidgets.QApplication(sys.argv)
main_app = MyApp()
main_app.show()
app.exec_()
OK, following ymmx answer, I figured out that the instanciation of InteractiveGraph needs to not be local.
So here's the solution which seems to behave as wanted in my case:

QtWidgets.QWidget.__init__(self, parent)
self.data_tab_glayout = QtWidgets.QGridLayout(self)
self.figure = Figure(figsize=(5, 3))
self.canvas = FigureCanvas(self.figure)
self.canvas.setParent(parent)
self.canvas.setFocusPolicy(QtCore.Qt.ClickFocus)
self.canvas.setFocus()
self.canvas_vlayout = QtWidgets.QVBoxLayout(self.canvas)
self.data_tab_glayout.addWidget(self.canvas, 0, 0, 2, 1)
#self.figure.canvas.mpl_connect('button_press_event', self.onclick)
self.axe = self.canvas.figure.add_subplot(111)
self.canvas.figure.subplots_adjust(left=0.025, top=0.965, bottom=0.040, right=0.975)
# add the tab to the parent
parent.addTab(self, "")
# set text name
parent.setTabText(parent.indexOf(self), title)
def createInteractiveGraph(self, DG, pos, node_color, labels):
self.graph_instance = InteractiveGraph(DG, node_layout=pos, edge_layout='curved', origin=(-1, -1), scale=(2, 2),
