Warning

This tutorial uses Qt4, PyQt4, and PyKDE4.

Now we want to prepare to add an address bar.

Replace the __init__ method with:

        self.widget = QWidget()

        layout = QVBoxLayout(self.widget)

        self.web = QWebView(self.widget)
        self.web.load(QUrl("http://kubuntu.org"))
        layout.addWidget(self.web)
        self.widget.show()

Now instead of having the QWebView as our top widget we have a plain QWidget. This widget contains a layout which is not a visible widget but ensure child widgets are put in a sensible place. It is a QVBoxLayout which will put widgets in a vertical colum.

See the full code.

This version will look the same as the previous.
