[SOLVED] Re: Can't get basic Qt Designer window to work (PyQt 5)

[enjoysmath]

Please see attached files. Everything was done correctly but I get this error upon running:

...ui_mainwindow.py", line 15, in setupUi
MainWIndow.setDocks | QtWidgets.QMainWindow.AnimatedDocks)
AttributeError: 'MainWinwo' object has no attribute 'setDockOptions'

Why isn't it finding the function? Thanks.

Added after 14 minutes:

This fixed it (inheriting from QMainWindow):
