Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Two instances of QT GUI Sink in a single program

[Sivan Toledo]

Thanks Tom. I guess I did not make myself clear. I do have several QT GUI blocks in the program, which I indeed generate using GRC. I have many sliders, a checkbox, and a sink (FFT). If I add a slider, I see it on the screen when I run the new program. When when I add a sink block, there is still only one FFT display, showing the results from one of the FFT blocks. The problem is only with the QT Sink block, not with all the QT blocks.

You can definitely have more than one QT GUI blocks in a program. It's
probably an initialization problem that's going wrong in your code.
You can see multiple QT GUI's used in
gnuradio-examples/python/digital/benchmark_qt_loopback.py.

Also, gnuradio-companion now works with QT GUI (set in the Options
block), and it handles multiple QT GUI blocks. You could create
something there, build the flow graph, and then see how the QT GUI
objects are manipulated to make sure they all get shown properly.
