I wrote a script to extract all the short-form and corresponding fully qualified enum names from the PyQt6 installation. It then does the conversions automatically:
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

ENUM CONVERTER TOOL
===================
The script starts from the toplevel directory (assuming that you put this file in that directory)
and crawls through all the files and folders. In each file, it searches for old-style enums to
convert them into fully qualified names.
HOW TO USE
==========
Fill in the path to your PyQt6 installation folder. See line 57:
pyqt6_folderpath = 'C:/Python39/Lib/site-packages/PyQt6'
Place this script in the toplevel directory of your project. Open a terminal, navigate to the
directory and invoke this script:
$ python enum_converter_tool.py
WARNING
=======
This script modifies the files in your project! Make sure to backup your project before you put this
file inside. Also, you might first want to do a dry run:
$ python enum_converter_tool.py --dry_run
FEATURES
========
You can invoke this script in the following ways:
$ python enum_converter_tool.py No parameters. The script simply goes through
all the files and makes the replacements.
$ python enum_converter_tool.py --dry_run Dry run mode. The script won't do any replace-
ments, but prints out what it could replace.
$ python enum_converter_tool.py --show Print the dictionary this script creates to
convert the old-style enums into new-style.
$ python enum_converter_tool.py --help Show this help info

# IMPORTANT: Point at the folder where PyQt6 stub files are located. This folder will be examined to

# variable:
import PyQt6
pyqt6_folderpath = PyQt6.__path__[0]

Parse the given stub file to extract the enums and flags. Each one is inside a class, possibly a
nested one. For example:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
| class Qt(PyQt6.sip.simplewrapper): |
| class HighDpiScaleFactorRoundingPolicy(enum.Enum): |
| Round = ... # type: Qt.HighDpiScaleFactorRoundingPolicy |
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The enum 'Round' is from class 'HighDpiScaleFactorRoundingPolicy' which is in turn from class
'Qt'. The old reference style would then be:
> Qt.Round
The new style (fully qualified name) would be:
> Qt.HighDpiScaleFactorRoundingPolicy.Round
The aim of this function is to fill the 'enum_dict' with an entry like:
enum_dict = {
'Qt.Round' : 'Qt.HighDpiScaleFactorRoundingPolicy.Round'
}

Make sure you backup your Python project. Then place this file in the toplevel directory of the project. Modify line 57 (!) such that it points to your PyQt6 installation folder.
First run the script with the --dry_run flag to make sure you agree with the replacements. Then run it without any flags.
Qt.as for exampleQt.Checked? – BlitherQt.*is only the "global" namespace for generic flags/enums (and some helper functions), then each class has its own internal flags and enums that are specific for it, likeQTabWidget.TabShape, orQAbstractItemView.ScrollMode. Maybe you could write a script that would iterate through all Qt modules and their__dict__recursively, looking forenumobjects. – Antipus
