QT charges a money order purchase fee of $1.50 for each $300. For example, a $500 money order would cost $3 in fees. You can purchase up to about $1,000 in money orders per day. Not satisfied with QT's policy? Screen door with mail slot. See our list of more places where you can get a money order. Most QT locations are open 24 hours. The following simple code snippet shows how to create and use QPushButton. It has been tested on Qt Symbian Simulator. An instance of QPushButton is created. Signal released is connected to slot handleButton which changes the text and the size of the button. To build and run the example: Create an empty folder. This method is also a Qt slot with the C signature void sortByColumn(int). Sorts the model by the values in the given column in the given order. This function was introduced in Qt 4.2. See also sortingEnabled. QTableView.sortByColumn (self, int column, Qt.SortOrder order) QTableView.timerEvent (self, QTimerEvent event).

Qt Signal Slot Call Order
Unlike a console mode application, which is executed in a sequential manner, a GUI based application is event driven. Functions or methods are executed in response to user's actions like clicking on a button, selecting an item from a collection or a mouse click etc., called events.
Widgets used to build the GUI interface act as the source of such events. Each PyQt widget, which is derived from QObject class, is designed to emit ‘signal' in response to one or more events. The signal on its own does not perform any action. Instead, it is ‘connected' to a ‘slot'. The slot can be any callable Python function.
In PyQt, connection between a signal and a slot can be achieved in different ways. Following are most commonly used techniques −
A more convenient way to call a slot_function, when a signal is emitted by a widget is as follows −
Suppose if a function is to be called when a button is clicked. Here, the clicked signal is to be connected to a callable function. It can be achieved in any of the following two techniques −

Example
In the following example, two QPushButton objects (b1 and b2) are added in QDialog window. We want to call functions b1_clicked() and b2_clicked() on clicking b1 and b2 respectively.
Qt Slot Call Ordering
When b1 is clicked, the clicked() signal is connected to b1_clicked() function Does serenade of the seas have a casino.
When b2 is clicked, the clicked() signal is connected to b2_clicked() function
