Is there a winforms designer for python?

So I was just wondering if there was a winforms editor like this for python?

I saw that iron python exists but I doesn't have a visual editor It's just text...

Try sharpdevelop here https://sharpdevelop.software.informer.com/5.1/. The product seems to be frozen, but it has a built-in form designer and allows you to use both C# and Iron Python**

You can use either of the following options:

Example - Pass parameter from Windows Forms UI to a Python function

Here is an example of using IronPython in a C# Windows Forms app:

  1. Create a Windows Forms application.

  2. Install IronPython nuget package.

  3. Add using IronPython.Hosting; statement to the using statements.

  4. Drop a TextBox on the form (textBox1)

  5. Drop a Button on the form (button1)

  6. Double click on button and add the following code for the click handler:

    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    var engine = Python.CreateEngine();
    var scope = engine.CreateScope();
    //You can also load script from file
    var source = engine.CreateScriptSourceFromString(
        "def hello(name):" + "\n" +
        "    result = 'Hello, {}!'.format(name)" + "\n" +
        "    return(result)",
        Microsoft.Scripting.SourceCodeKind.Statements);
    var compiled = source.Compile();
    compiled.Execute(scope);
    dynamic hello = scope.GetVariable("hello");
    var result = hello(textBox1.Text);
    MessageBox.Show((string)result);
}

  7. Press F5 to Run the application, enter a text, and click on the button. The function will run and you will see a message box saying hello.
