Drag a QPushButton and a QLineEdit on your form. Press F4 and drag the mouse from the QPushButton and release it on the top of the QLineEdit.

I read the Qt manual about signals and slots and I understood how this signals and slots system works - in theory. In practice, I still don't know how to actually use that system in code. For instance, I have a QSlider object that, when I drag the slider, I'd like it to notify the new slider value in a qDebug message.
So I use QT Designer for the User Interface (UI), and convert this to python using “pyuic5” which generates a ui.py file
As this file gets overwritten every-time I make any changes to the UI, I would like to to have another .py file which has a signal/slot class and I can program there without any worries about copy/paste issues to/from the auto-generated ui.py file.
But how do I:
- generate a signal from another class in another file ?
- generate a slot from another class in another file ?
- write back into the ui.py class, ie writing some text in a text field.
It is no problem doing the above if I keep all the code in the ui.py file, but it does become a copy/paste issue and prone to me making simple errors.
Any suggestions or is this really not doable.
I have searched the net a lot but nothing has come up and everything I have tried doesn't work
