In a gui application I'm developing, I have a button that when pressed hides several parts of the gui and displays a fullscreen view of the remaining window
The relevant code is along the lines of:
def clicked_signal(self,button_widget):
self.widget1.hide()
self.widget2.hide()
self.widget3.hide()
self.widget4.hide()
...
self.window.fullscreen()
widget1,..., widget4 are inside various hboxes nested in the main window
This works but looks terrible as the window seems to refresh after each widget gets hidden. what I want to know is if there is a way to block recalculation and refresh of the window during each of these intermediate steps? e.g. something like:
def clicked_signal(self,button_widget):
self.freeze()
self.widget1.hide()
self.widget2.hide()
self.widget3.hide()
self.widget4.hide()
self.window.fullscreen()
self.thaw()
hopefully this makes sense? Alternatively, maybe there's a better way to hide the gui elements?
