<div> </div>
<div>I've discovered some very strange behaviour when trying to delete a QWidget from a QGridLayout. The following code demonstrates this behaviour:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>>>> from PyQt4 import QtGui</div>
<div>>>> import sys</div>
<div>>>> app = QtGui.QApplication(sys.argv)</div>
<div>>>> grid_layout = QtGui.QGridLayout()<br/>
>>> grid_layout.addWidget(QtGui.QWidget())<br/>
>>> item = self.grid_layout.takeAt(0)<br/>
>>> item.deleteLater()</div>
<div>Traceback (most recent call last):<br/>
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module><br/>
AttributeError: 'QWidgetItem' object has no attribute 'deleteLater'</div>
<div> </div>
<div>This makes no sense to me whatsoever. Firstly, why is it returning a QWidgetItem when I inserted a QWidget to begin with? Secondly, every Qt object derives from QObject, and deleteLater() is a method of QObject, so that method should exist. Additional info:</div>
