When I create a simple application with the below code, I get the additional errors/messages (all starting with QPainter) in the command line output in some scenarios (detailed in table below). It looks like a bug with PyQt6's latest version (6.9.0) but there is no way to debug since none of my code stop points can catch those items. I can't debug effectively since Pycharm doesn't show error messages in any of the runs. Any guidance on debugging further? P.S. After the program goes into app execution, I hit windows right on the window to clip the window to the right side of my window (to trigger resize event manually).
