PyGraphicUI 1.5.9
PyGraphicUI enhances PyQt6 GUI development with simplified widget creation, intuitive layout management, dynamic time-based widgets, and an object-oriented approach to stylesheets, reducing boilerplate and improving code readability.

# PyGraphicUI: Enhanced PyQt6 GUI Development

PyGraphicUI is a Python library built on top of PyQt6 that streamlines the creation of graphical user interfaces. It provides a more intuitive and Pythonic approach to designing and managing PyQt6 widgets and layouts, simplifying complex tasks and reducing boilerplate code.

## Key Features:

* **Simplified Widget Initialization:** Create PyQt6 widgets with ease using dedicated initialization classes like `WidgetInit`, `SpinBoxInit`, `LabelInit`, and more.  These classes provide a cleaner way to set widget properties during creation.
* **Enhanced Layout Management:** Easily construct and manage complex layouts with `PyVerticalLayout`, `PyHorizontalLayout`, and `GridLayout`. Add, remove, and access layout items with convenient methods.
* **Dynamic Time-Based Widgets:** Incorporate dynamic time display with `PyTimer` and `PyStopWatch`, offering customizable formatting and update intervals. Also includes a `PyProgressWatcher` for tracking progress with estimated time remaining.
* **Powerful Styling with StyleSheets:** Create and apply custom stylesheets using a structured and object-oriented approach. `BaseStyle`, `BaseStyleSheet`, and specialized style classes for different widgets provide fine-grained control over appearance. Chain styles together for complex selectors.

## Installation:

* **With pip:**
    ```bash
    pip install PyGraphicUI
    ```

* **With git:**
    ```bash
    pip install git+https://github.com/oddshellnick/PyGraphicUI.git
    ```

                        style_sheet=PushButtonStyleSheet(
                                PushButtonStyle(
                                        background=Background(Brush(Color(RGB(90, 90, 90)))),

                                )
                        ).style_sheet,
                        fixed_size=ObjectSize(width=100, height=50),
                        font=PyFont(size=32, size_type="point")
                ),
                instance="Click"
